Changing resolution in Solaris 10 sparc system

How do change resolution in solaris 10 on sparc system?
During install display was fine. Once boot to OS, display is bad. Need to know how I can change resolution to get a decent display on screen.

I'm not too sure about sparc hardware, as I don't know which graphic server it uses, but on my system(x86) the same thing happened. What I had to do was make an xorg.conf as the install doesn't create one.
On the CLI execute '/usr/X11/bin/xorgconfig' and this should step you through creating an xorg.conf file- as long as you are using the Xorg server of course.
or
execute '/usr/X11/bin/Xorg -configure' this should create a basic xorg.conf and you just edit it yourself where appropriate.
Personally, if you know your graphic board,monitor, keybrd and mouse along with refresh rates the first method is probably best.
H.T.H.

  • Init 5 doesn't shutdown Solaris 8 Sparc system

    Hi,
    I am trying to bring down the Solaris 8 Sparc system using the command # init 5 but it doesn't do anything whereas the command # shutdown brings down the system. What could be the problem of init 5 command not functioning.
    Thanks & Regards

    ok, i should have caught this earlier
    looks like, your program is not able to start because of not finding a symbol called __res_state. This symbol is found in /usr/lib/libresolv.so.2
    the most likely reason is that u probably do not have some required patches installed
    if u r open to install the sun patch cluster , then that is probably the best way to go
    visit the below url
    http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patches/patch-access
    and look for solaris 9 (around 180 mb of size) download this patch cluster and install them in single user mode
    btw, when u have installed the jes version of web server,it is already running only in 32 bit.
    hope this helps

  • Recent changes in patch entitlement for Solaris 10 sparc systems?

    Have there been any, especially those which non-contract customers should know about?
    I am running Sol 10 u3 sparc on a Sun Blade workstation. Today, I noticed that some patches already installed on my system are now considered private on SunSolve (e.g. 143510-01). Also, kernel patch 142900-04 is private! I've been using SUM to get kernel patches forever (I am at 142900-03). What happened? Hopefully this is just a glitch. I can't believe that kernel patches will be private from now on!
    There is a certain Xsun security patch which I have deliberately not installed. For years, it has come up in SUM. Today, for the first time, it is gone.
    I am also running Sol 10 u8 on an x86 system. No problem with patches there - all normal. I installed kernel patch 142901-04 on it today. Also without a support contract.
    What is going on?

    Gary,
    That is a great idea. I've been wondering about other ways Oracle could handle this issue, such as charging per patch, etc. This issue applies very much to Sun Studio 12.1 (see other recent thread about SS patches in this forum). There is NO WAY I, or the organization I work for, could justify spending $1,000+ per year just for SS patches. $300+/year for OS patches may be doable, but still probably wouldn't be worth it, unless SEVERE security holes are discovered that must be patched immediately, which I have never found to be the case over the last 8 years.
    Your idea sounds like an ideal solution, but I fear that it is highly unlikely that Oracle would consider it. That would make some manager look bad in having to change his/her "great plan." Oracle should find some way to differentiate big "enterprise" Solaris users from 1-2 box shops who can't afford these pricey support contracts, but still depend on Solaris. For the last 7 years, public patches and these forums have done the job for me, and I have NEVER had to initiate a service or support call or request. That is testament to the stability of Solaris and the brilliance of its engineers.

  • Solaris 10 / Sparc: Last Unsuccessful Login

    Hi guys,
    I would like to know if there is a way to configure my "Solaris 10 / Sparc" system in order that, after a user login on the system, the console displays a message containing the Last Successful Login date and the number of failed login the same user attempts since last login successfully carried out . I hope I've been clear even if the requirement is a bit contorted.
    It would be enough for me just know who is the program that produce the message "Last Login: ..." (eg, "Last Login: Mon Jul 6 10:03:59 from 10.173.123.34") in order that I can try to do the same thing with the number of unsuccessful login.
    The message "Last Login: ..." is already printed on my Sistem. So I don't need to configure this: I only need to know how to print the number of failed login the same user attempts since last login successfully carried out.
    I did some research online and almost all advise to put in "/etc /profile" the following lines:
    echo "Login Successful LAST: $ (last-R $ LOGNAME | head -1)"
    echo "Login Unsuccessful LAST: $ (lastb-R $ LOGNAME | head -1)"
    The problem is that on my machine I can not find the command lastb. I can find Only the "last" command.
    Thank you

    lastb is a Linux program, also available on HP-UX but not Solaris.
    For Solaris you use the loginlog file - create a file in /var/adm - touch /var/adm/loginlog. Make it read and write only for the owner, which is root, and in group sys. Any failed logins at the command line login will show up in /var/adm/loginlog. Failures at the GUI login will not, these show up in /var/adm/messages. The only place I can see to get the last login information at the GUI would be from the /.dt/startlog.old in the user's home directory or /var/adm/messages.

  • Smpatch Solaris 8/SPARC: Xsun offered 4 times

    Hi folks,
    while running "smpatch analyze" on Solaris 8/SPARC systems, I get the "Xsun patch" offered 4 times:
    119067-09 X11 6.4.1: Xsun patch
    116338-03 Trusted_Solaris_8_HW_12/02: Xsun patch
    118383-02 Trusted_Solaris_8_HW_7/03: Xsun patch
    125698-02 Trusted_Solaris_8_2/04: Xsun patch
    Of course 119067-09 is the right and only one, the Trusted Solaris versions are improper, because this feature is not installed. I guess, the detection routine of smpatch is erroneous in this case. Anyone else got this?

    Hi,
    4 month have passed now, nothing happened to this issue: On a fresh installed and patched Solaris 8 <Solaris 8 2/04 s28s_hw4wos_05a SPARC>, where patch
    119067-10 ,date: Jun/27/08, synopsis: X11 6.4.1: Xsun patch
    is installed, the following Xsun patches for "Trusted Solaris" are detected as missing and all being installed (!) by smpatch:
    # smpatch analyze
    116338-03 Trusted_Solaris_8_HW_12/02: Xsun patch
    118383-02 Trusted_Solaris_8_HW_7/03: Xsun patch
    125698-02 Trusted_Solaris_8_2/04: Xsun patch
    # smpatch update
    116338-03 has been validated.
    118383-02 has been validated.
    125698-02 has been validated.
    Installing patches from /var/sadm/spool...
    116338-03 has been applied.
    118383-02 has been applied.
    NOTICE: Update 125698-02 cannot be applied at this time since it is typed as "reboot immediate" which is disallowed by installation policy.
    NOTICE: Patch 125698-02 cannot be installed until the next system shutdown.
    So, in my opinion detection routines for Xsun patches are getting worse.

  • Installing Oracle 9i on Solaris 10 SPARC,  /etc/system vs. projects

    Can anyone verify that the kernel tuning parameters that used to be set in /etc/system on Solaris 8 have any effect in Solaris 10? All the documentation I can find suggests that most (if not all) of these settings have been marked obsolete or removed in Solaris 10. It is my understanding that these settings (such as shared memory) need to be set by means of a project. If we are running with no project setup in Solaris 10 are we pretty much running "untuned" ?

  • Install Solaris 8 on SPARC system

    Hi,
    I'm new in Unix/Solaris. I tried to install solaris 8 on a sparc system, I downloaded (SOL-8-1_01-FCS-BIN-SPARC-V1 and V2) and i burned 2 CD as. On the sparc system is already SUNOS 5.6 installed. But each time I tried to boot the system it "hang" after the message:" starting rpc services: rcpbind keyserv nis_cachemgr done." What ever I type after this message has no effect at all. I'm allowed to format the disk (home user). The CD-rom player is attached to the Sparc but can not boot the CD. Is there anyone who can help me.
    I downloaden olso the pdf files but they were no use for me at this moment.

    Hello,
    you will have to go to OK prompt and then boot with CDROM.
    1.login as root and then type
    #eeprom auto-boot?=false
    2.reboot the system. the system will stop at the OK prompt.
    3. then type:
    OK boot cdrom install
    you should see Solaris install program and follow its instruction.
    And the error you see seems to be caused by bad network connection

  • Solaris 10 SPARC time zone issue

    Dear All,

    The rtc command is used to set the real time (bios) clock. It should have no effect on the running clock.
    as i configured the /etc/TIMEZONE, i couldnt run the rtc command and figured that it is for X86
    what is the alternative on SPARC?There is no alternative. x86 has a tradition of running the BIOS clock in local time. The rtc program allows you to continue doing that, which is handy if you multi-boot with other operating systems that require that setting (such as windows). As such, the rtc clock needs to be reset when local time changes (usually associated with daylight saving or summer time). If you do not multi-boot with windows, you may wish to set the bios clock to UTC. It makes certain things easier.
    SPARC systems do not multi-boot windows, and the onboard nvram clock always runs in UTC. So the rtc command is not needed.
    The date output is +2 over the timezone taht i have specified
    TZ=Europe/Paris
    CMASK=022
    LANG=en_US.UTF-8Please show output of the following commands:
    TZ=Europe/Paris date
    date
    echo $TZ

  • Solaris v10 sparc jumpstart server on x86 solaris - can't find miniroot.

    I am trying to setup a jumpstart install server on an x86 solaris v10 machine to do a sparc network install. I downloaded both the CD and DVD sparc v10 ISO's. When I mount the CD, the Solaris_10/Tools/Boot directory (miniroot system) is symlinked back to ../../../s1 which does exist. I can't find it on the CD, I've used prtvtoc and this slice does not seem to exist.
    On the DVD iso, the directoy exists, but many files cannot be read, almost like the filesystem is corrupt.
    I've download these ISO and burned them many times, so I know it's not an issue with hardware or the CD/DVD media.
    Where can I download a working sparc solaris v10 miniroot system?

    There is no such entry under solaris. This entry only exist on windows.
    On solaris you need to change entries in the kjs script (prior to SP3)
    or iasenv.ksh (after SP3)

    Now let's see what we can find out about your system
    (logfiles of failing tests are available in the conf/ dir)...
    sh: cc: not found
    ERROR: cannot run the configured compiler 'cc'
    (see conf/compilerok.log). Suggestions:
    1) The complier 'cc' is not in your PATH. Add it
       to the PATH and try again. OR
    2) The compiler isn't installed on your system. Install it. OR
    3) You only have a different compiler installed (e.g. 'gcc').
       Either fix the compiler config in the perl Config.pm
       or install a perl that was built with the right compiler
       (you could build perl yourself with the available compiler).
    Note: this is a system-administration issue, please ask your local
    admin for help. Thank you.

    Dear All,
    I am trying to set the date as per the time zone,
    I have succeeded doing that on solaris 10 x86 server after i modified the /etc/TIMEZONE file and ran the rtc command/etc/TIMEZONE is only read at boot time.
    The rtc command is used to set the real time (bios) clock. It should have no effect on the running clock.
    as i configured the /etc/TIMEZONE, i couldnt run the rtc command and figured that it is for X86
    what is the alternative on SPARC?There is no alternative. x86 has a tradition of running the BIOS clock in local time. The rtc program allows you to continue doing that, which is handy if you multi-boot with other operating systems that require that setting (such as windows). As such, the rtc clock needs to be reset when local time changes (usually associated with daylight saving or summer time). If you do not multi-boot with windows, you may wish to set the bios clock to UTC. It makes certain things easier.
    SPARC systems do not multi-boot windows, and the onboard nvram clock always runs in UTC. So the rtc command is not needed.
    The date output is +2 over the timezone taht i have specified
    TZ=Europe/Paris
    CMASK=022
    LANG=en_US.UTF-8Please show output of the following commands:
    TZ=Europe/Paris date

  • Changing timezone in Solaris 9

    Hi,
    How do I change the timezone (TZ value) for all users without putting it in any profile.
    I've made the change in /etc/TIMEZONE but the system takes effect only when you restart it. How do I bring it into effect?
    I've read that for Solaris (x86) the default crontab entry /usr/sbin/rtc -c under root id does that. What needs to be done in Solaris 9 for SPARC (9/04)?
    Regards

    rtc is run in cron as root in order to take care of daylight savings.
    The problem with the timezone variable is that its picked up by the init process, which then keeps its value and sends it to any program which its spawns (and since all programs are parents or grandparents of init, all of them will get this value).
    You can of course set a value in your shell, and then start up the processes which you want to have the correct timezone, but in order for it to take effect system-wide i'm afraid you need a reboot, unless you can use kmdb to change it somewhere, but that would still leave it at its old value in most applications.

  • Oracle 10g R2 installation on sun solaris 10 Sparc machine

    Hi there,
    I encountered the following problem during oracle 10g R2 installation on sun solaris 10 Sparc machine
    Error encountered:
    Using paramFile: /u01/Oracle/10gr2_db_sol/install/oraparam.ini

    The following were the steps taken before encountering the above error

    4. executed the following from the command prompt
    ./runInstaller
    Note: when executing the ./runInstaller, the preinstallation checking just hangs at Checking monitor: must be configured to display at least 256 colors. But the log file shows it failed during preinstallation checking as shown in Error encountered
    Please help me with this problem.
    Thank you
    Ravindran Kanniah

    It is because of UNIX shell. I also faced this error during installation.
    First check your shell by the following command.
    $ echo $SHELL
    Then select the below.
    For csh shell
    $ setenv DISPLAY 192.168.1.128:0.0
    $ export DISPLAY
    For sh,ksh and bash
    $ DISPLAY=192.168.1.128:0.0
    $ export DISPLAY
    After you do this check the value of DISPLAY variable.
    $ echo $DISPLAY
    If the DISPLAY variable is set then run ./runInstaller.
    One advice: Keep a complete log of your terminal session. This will help you in future :)

  • How I can emulate Solaris 10 sparc on a Virtual Machine?

    Hi for all.
    Guys, I need to emulate an environment Solaris 10 in my job. We have an application that just run in this kind of environment. But, I found some problems when I try to install Solaris 10 Sparc on Virtual Box. I think that the problem is the type of architecture that are differents.
    So, someone knows a way to emulate Solaris 10 sparc architecture on a Virtual Machine. Doesn't matter the Virtual Machine application (Virtual Box, VMWare, etc..). Somebody Help me?

    HI Srini_Chavali
    I'm using the Solaris 10 u11.
    In fact, Virtual Box supports Solaris u6 and higher. I have an installation of Virtual Box running Solaris x86. But, the problem occurs when I try to create a Virtual machine to work with Solaris 10 Sparc architecture.
    The errors that appears on the screen are:
    "No bootable medium found! System Halted" and "FATAL: Could not read from the boot medium! System halted"
    This error occurs just with Architecture sparc.

    I think that the error would be caused by the JDK version with which try to initializing.
    Anyone have any idea about the possible error? Thanks in advance.

    Hi, I encourage you to try to use the generic installer at: %SOA_INSTALLER_DIR%/Disk1/runInstaller. Because if you are using the runInstaller at %SOA_INSTALLER_DIR%/Disk1/install/solaris it will lead to that problem in some cases.

Maybe you are looking for
