Backup issues (ufsdump/ufsrestore) under solaris 10

Hello all,
We are in the process of migrating to Solaris 10 from Solaris 8.
On our Solaris 8 systems with 2 HDDs we have a script that does a full backup of one disk (slice by slice) on to another using ufsdump/ufsrestore + boot record. The idea is that if one disk becomes corrupt logically/physically we can boot off the backup disk and continue using the system.
This worked fine under Solaris 8. We tried to do the same under Solaris 10 and noticed some unexpected behaviour when we tried to boot off the backup disk. Solaris 10 started "reconfiguring services" just like it does it when you install the OS fresh with the message:
Loading smf(5) service descriptions: xx/117
Somehow Solaris 10 "knew" that it was booted from a different device than last time.
My question would be: how does Solaris 10 know this and could we "fool" it into thinking that it was always installed on a backup disk, so it doesn't reconfigure itself every time new backup is made (and used).

"... The real question is "how can I be sure that except smf there is nothing else in the OS affected by HDD change" and that is what I meant..."
The fact that you use ufsdump on mounted (I am guessing that you are doing so :-) file systems is risky!. Alternatively, you can create snapshots (fssnap(1M)) for the file systems that you are going to ufsdump on.
If your main aim is to replicate and reduce down time in case of root disk failure, a better solution is make use of mirriong via Solaris Volume Manager (aka SDS or md(7D)). Mirror does not guard against human errors though, such as accidentally deletion of crucial files :-) (which a backup strategy can guard against).
Hope this helps.
Regards,
S.T.Chang

I think maybe if you split it into two luns, you can
stitch them back together with svm.
But even thats not certain.Depends on what you're going to do with the device at that point. UFS on Solaris also does not support volumes 1TB or larger. So you'd have to use it as a raw slice space or a filesystem that did support larger sizes.
You need later versions of Solaris 9 to get mutli-terabyte UFS support. (a separate issue from multi-terabyte LUN support).

This was suggested by the Backup Assist - software vendor....
A.)
...for 0x81080101:
"ERROR - The shared restore point operation failed with error (0x81000101)
The creation of a shadow copy has timed out. Try again this operation."
If you receive the above error in your report, we have recently found a registry key which
contains the timeout value set by Microsoft for VSS and found that you can edit this to extend it.
To get to the registry key, open Regedit (Start > Run > Regedit) and browse to:
"HKLM\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion\\SPP\\CreateTimeout".
Change value to 1200000 (2*10*60*1000 = 20 mins).
The default for the timeout period is 10 mins so hopefully doubling this will give enough time to
complete the snapshot.
If this isn't present, you'll need to manually enter the registry key. It's a DWORD 32-bit key.

Scot Pichelman

Hi Scot,
Sometimes a third party backup application will change the default VSS provider adding VSS writers which causes Windows Server Backup using an incorrect component in doing backup, that's why I suggest to delete it for a test. Anyway you can reinstall it
after testing.
And as you said a high-load CPU could also be the cause of the issue so you may need to first rule hardware effective out.
If issue still exists, please try the steps below as well:
1. Please check DCOM Server Process Launcher service is started.
2. If not, try to change RPC service to run as SYSTEM account. To do this please modify the following key:
Note: Backup the key before edit incase it cause any issue.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\RpcSs\
Find "ObjectName" and change the value to LocalSystem.
Reboot to see if DCOM back to work and if Windows Server Backup starts working. If not, please provide the result if there is any new error occurs.
If DCOM still not work, please compare the content of the following key with a working server:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\OLE
Edit if there is any difference and make sure you created a backup of the key before editing.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

How large can be a filesystem under Solaris 8???It depends on the file system. UFS is limited to 1TByte.

be limited by the size of the media (CD-ROM/HSFS etc.)

Duplicate fiber root disk using just ufsdump/ufsrestore/installboot ...

I have to setup 5 x 890 servers and 4 x 490 servers. Without using jumpstart, is there a quick way to do a duplicate a root disk using just ufsdump/ufsrestore/installboot commands? If these boxes had SCSI drives, this would not be problem. Because of the fiber drives, I am struggling to figure out how to do it - because the WWNs are embedded into device tree.
Anybody got any ideas how to do it using plain old ufsdump/ufsrestore commands?
Thanks.
SG

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the qucik reply.
The problem persists. I deleted the contents of /disk2/dev/dsk and /disk2/dev/rdsk. Then I rebuilt the device tree using:
/usr/sbin/devfsadm -c disk -r /disk2 -p /disk2/etc/path_to_instThen I set the boot parameter:
luxadm set_boot_dev /dev/dsk/c2t2d0s0When rebooting, the new WWN now correctly shows up under boot-device. However, the file system appears to be mounted as read-only again. The same errors show up on the screen, all related to starting services, cron, etc. All instances are followed by an error message of "Read-only file system".
I also fsck'ed the root partition, but this didn't help fix the problem.
After this test, I ran fsck again, and noticed that c2t2d0s0 was last mounted on /disk2, so the root slice was in fact never mounted during boot.
Is there anything else I can check with regards to the read-only mounting problem?
Thanks.

Issues with Samba and Solaris 10 when number of group is greater than 16

Has anyone heard if Sun plan to increase the value of ngroups_max from 16 to something larger in the next release of Solaris.
I have just upgraded Samba from version 3.2 to 3.3-3.4 and now users that belong to more than 16 groups have no access the shares.
I know the value can be increased via /etc/system but this breaks other stuff.
What I need is either Samba to take this limitation into account or SUN to overcome the restriction.

Edited by: neilnewman on Sep 22, 2009 8:34 AM

After some more digging around to help myself, I found a way to get users that belong to more than 16 Windows groups access to the Samba shares under Solaris.
Using a source copy of Samba 3.2.15
cd source/lib
edit util.c
around line 460 I added the following of lines of code:
if (*num_gids >14)
*num_gids=15;
Provided the users in question that require Samba access have the group they need within the first 15 groups, all works OK.
I presume this could also be done with latter versions of Samba, but I have not taken a look at this point.

Mozilla under Solaris 10

hello all,
I am trying to launch Mozilla 1.7 under Solaris 10 with multiple Java versions, like Java 1.5, 1.4 and 1.6.
I am not 100% sure but from what I see its not fully supported by Mozilla?
some behavior patters that I noticed is that Mozilla tend to lock the session against the JRE its running under. so if you started with 1.5
it will remain under 1.5 until you kill/finish that session..
could anyone please help with this or if you have any better suggestion?
thanks a lot

Not really sure what you are trying to do, but you can get a more recent version at the following
link. README link has info on install, including java.

Mount NTFS under Solaris 10

Hi can anybody tell me if i can mount a NTFS partition under Solaris 10??
Thanks for ur help.

if you use solaris x86 and the ntfs-partition
Not possible. NTFS has those windows-security-id's (you know, those about-40-character-long-id's) for each object which cannot be read from solaris.
</td></tr></table>
I think writing to NTFS is nearly impossible (due to changes of the NTFS version, security stuff, and so on).
However reading from an <u>unencrypted</u> NTFS partition seems to be a possible thing. I do not know if a tool or a driver <u>already</u> exists but I think it is a possible task to write a tool that reads from NTFS partitions.
I think writing a tool that reads from UFS partitions under Windows is an easy task, too. I wrote such a tool for reading the EXT2 file system under Windows long time ago.

Porting of Sybase Application to Oracle 8i under Solaris

Dear All
I want to port an application from sybase 10.2 which is running under Solaris to Oracle 8I under Solaris. Apart from database objects and stored procedures which I have already converted I wan to conver some C Codes and Unix Scripts
Which are either shell scripts or perl programs. I need all of your valuable suggestions in this regard.
Q-1 . In the Perl Program the following lines are sybase specific
Use Sybase:: Dblib
Require /files0/apps/local/lib/perl15/Sybase/sybperl.pl;
What will be the equivalent for ORACLE.
Suggest what perl I should use in this context.
In continuation to the above also I have some shell variables assigned as follows
$SYB_SERVER=SYB_PROD_CERT;
$SYB_DATABASE=APPLDB;
$ENV{SYBASE}=/sybase/10.0.4;
$ENV{DSQUERY}=$SYB_SERVER
$SYB_USER=keshav;
$SYB_PWFILE=/myappl/processcert/passwords/$SYB_SERVER;
$SYB_PW=/usr/bin/cat $SYB_PWFILE;
chop($SYB_PW);
dbmsghandle(message_handler);
dberrhandle(error_handler);
( ($dbproc = &dblogin($SYB_USER,$SYB_PW,$SYB_SERVER)) != -1 );
( &dbuse($dbproc, $SYB_DATABASE) != -1 );
( ($dbproc2 = &dblogin($SYB_USER,$SYB_PW,$SYB_SERVER)) != -1 );
( &dbuse($dbproc2, $SYB_DATABASE) != -1 );
sub Statistics
# get distinct sub-cat counts
( &dbcmd($dbproc, "select count(*),orgnumber,name=(select servicerorgname from servicer where servicer.orgnumber=transactionlog.orgnumber) from transactionlog group by orgnumber order by count(*) desc\n") != -1 );
&dbsqlexec($dbproc);
&dbresults($dbproc);
$row = DBROWS( $dbproc );
2. One of the Sample C Program is given here which I want to convert into pro*c.
I would like to know what are the corresponding libraries of oracle under
Solaris are to be used and also the respective header files mapping of Sybase
To Oracle. Any comment of this will be appreciated.

Hello
The "-D_BIG_ENDIAN" shows you that the code is endian-dependent. This means that the program cannot be ported 1:1 because x86 is little endian while Sparc is big-endian.
I would first try to use "-D_LITTLE_ENDIAN" (or what flag ever I can find in the source codes) and to compile for x86.
Because of the "-D_BIG_ENDIAN" different source code is used for both machines. Maybe the little-endian source code is wrong:
#ifdef _BIG_ENDIAN
// correct source code for Sparc
#else
// INCORRECT source code for x86
#endifMartin

after having played back a backup on a Mac under OSX 10.7 containing CS4 following error massage occured when trying to start PS:
eroor 150:30
seems to be related with registration

By courtesy of R_Kelly:
The 150:30 error means licensing broke.
Two ways to fix this: If you are used to the Terminal app, you download the license recovery package and following instructions carefully, you use the python script in the package. Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS
If for some reason it doesn't, reinstall CS4 from your discs, or download the CS4 installer here.

How to start ftp under solaris 10

Hi,

This looks sort of like what happened to me just now. I tried svcs -x
and got:
# svcs -x

I tried all kinds of things to get gss to run, but I finally realized that
it was really ifconfig that was the problem. The system has two
network interfaces, and during installation I gave both of them
a name. However, hme1 was not really connected to anything.
All I did to get it to work was
# cd /etc
# mv hostname.hme1 no.hme1
After that, I rebooted, and everything came up OK. I don't know
if the original problem was the same, but this solved my problem.

Sparc Storag Array 102 needs to run under solaris 10

I need to get a Sparc Storage Array to run under solaris 10. The soc driver that is needed is not supportted under solairs 10. I took the packages needed off of solari 9 cd and installed them but no luck. I tried to to do a modload and modinfo but it was not there.
The package loaded a file into /kernel/drv/sparcv9/soc. I have solaris 9 onanother disk on the same system and looked at the system trying to copy and edit the files on 10 but not device paths show up in the system. I copyied a file called soc that was in /kernel/drv/ I edited the /etc/device_aliases and path_to_inst but no good.
There are no entries in the /devices/ dir that reference the soc path. I do not if than can work but really would like to get this working.

The fibre interface on that beast is NOT a Gigabit connection,
such as is common on current systems.
It was a 100Mbps connection through an array controller,
running with a 40MHz microSPARC II control module.
You'd exceed its throughput capabilities in any attempt
to read or write data at or beyond that 100Mbps rate.
I don't anticipate much assistance in these forums for a technology that goes back a decade-and-a-half.
Contributors familiar with products from that era stopped posting in 2006
when the previous supportforum.sun.com was merged into this one.
We'll all look forward to your guidance after you succeed.

How to install a LPR Printer under Solaris 10 01/06

Hi,
I just installed Solaris 10 01/06 2 days ago and so far I'm pretty impressed, really a nice system!
I have one problem, though:
I have a Kyocera FS-1010 printer in my office which is connected to a CNet Printserver.
I'm able to print from other Linux and *BSD boxes to this printer by using CUPS and adding the Printer as a LPR Printqueue.
My question is: Is there a way to do the same under Solaris? As far as I know, Solaris doesn't use CUPS as the default printing system, unlike OSX for example.
Thanks in advance,
Dominik

Is there any reason you haven't ftp'd and then configued cups on Solaris?
