Cluster test with zones

Hi there,
I would like to install and test sun cluster software. I installed 64 bit Solaris 10 into vmware workstation 6. Is it possible to setup some zones and test sun cluster software within one solaris installation? Or do I have to install 2 solaris into vmware and then go with cluster?

You can install a single node cluster. You may need to change /etc/syslog.conf to lower the severity level to ignore the pm_tickdelay messages to kernel.notice. Although not supported, this is a very good environment for development and testing.
And it is also possible to have a resource group failing over between two non-global zones running on that single-node cluster. For an example have a look at http://blogs.sun.com/SC/entry/new_solaris_10_experience which describes how to set this up for HA samba.

  • Multiple numeric test with cluster from labview?

    Is it possible to make a multiple numeric limit test with the values from a cluster from a labview vi?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    This can be done with a little work.
    The first step is to get the cluster's data back in to TestStand's memory space as you would do normally.
    Then you either use post expressions (since you're at a point in time between the test code module completing and the status evaluation) to move the pertinent parts in to the data source for the step (usually step.numericarray) or...

    And
    http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370052K-01/tsref/infotopics/pane_mnl_datasource/
    Use the 'specify data source for each measurement''.
    I'm not in front of a computer with TestStand right now to knock up an example but it should be pretty straight forward.
    Either method should allow you to work with a mixed cluster of data types and just evaluate on the numeric ones.

  • Live Upgrade fails on cluster node with zfs root zones

    We are having issues using Live Upgrade in the following environment:
    -UFS root
    -ZFS zone root

    -System is fully up to date for patching
    We also use Live Upgrade with the exact same same system configuration on other nodes except the zones are UFS root and Live Upgrade works fine.

    Any ideas why it can't mount that "backups" lofs filesystem into /.alt? I am going to try and remove the lofs from the zone configuration and try again. But if that works I still need to find a way to use LOFS filesystems in the zones while using Live Upgrade
    Thanks

  • Deferred patching broken for machines with zones

    For a while I've noticed that Ive had trouble patching a couple of machines.
    I've managed to determine the significant characteristic identifying them.
    All the machines with a non global zone have the problem.
    To confirm, I added a test zone to a machine that was fine. And it immediately it developed the problem.
    Anyway, the symptom is that no deferred patches will install.
    So patches delayed by a "smpatch update" till the reboot fail to install.
    The sunucLog displays the following error

    Anyone got any workarounds for this problem.
    Is it a known issue.
    Or should I log a support request.

    Any progress on this? Its been 2 months. And sun has managed to put out an entire new update to Solaris.
    And a 119254-59 has been released. But neither includes a fix for this issue as far as I can tell...
    Its now basically impossible to patch machines with zones up to the latest kernel 137137-09 since that has a dependency on 119254-58.
    And machines with zones can't be patched if a version higher than 119254-53 is installed....

  • Queries on cluster installation with win2k3 & Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 for 640 rel

    Dear All,
    We are in a process installing sap clustered system for 640 basis release o win 2k3 with Oracle 10.2.0.4.0
    However i have followed this steps as below..
    Install windows on NODE-A & NODE- B, Update windows,
    Install required hotfixes which controls high paging on windows as per sap note
    #1009297 Windows Server 2003 Family: High Paging Rates
    #1416152 Memory problems with Windows server 2003 and 2008
    Tested connectivity to Storage area network as recommended in MSCS cluster guide for both NODES
    Installed Java on both nodes & set variables , paging etc..
    Configure widows cluster & tested the connectivity by moving the shared disks from NODE-A to NODE-B
    Step 2
    I have installed Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 with required bug fixes on Both the NODES by switching all the resources
    After this step i am pretty confused that do i need to install OFS server & client.
    or
    Install CI + DB , Configure MSCS NODE-A,NODE-B
    then install Oracle OFS server & client & configure & test the connectivity.
    At what time my oracle cluster group to be created
    At what time my SAP R/3 cluster group to be created
    I am also referring to standard instguide & pretty confused on sequence to be followed
    Using SAP R/3 Enterprise Core 4.70, SAP R/3 Enterprise Extension Set 2.00, Service Release 1
    Please throw some light on the sequence to be followed , so much of time & effort can be saved for me.
    Thanks,
    Rahul..

    Hello all,
    Thank you for the inputs provide,  I have completed a first run .. with lot of issues..
    Currently prparing for a cutover & i just wanted to share few inputs after installing.
    The inst guide also suggest same sequence.. which i have followed...
    Move all disk groups and cluster group to node A
    - Install Oracle RDBMS on both nodes.
    - Install OFS on both nodes.
    - reboot.
    - verify that all cluster groups are online (and on node A).
    - Install Central Instance
    - Install Database Instance.
    - Configure Node A for MSCS
    - Convert Database to OFS
    - Configure Node B for MSCS
    but i was wondering after installing CI + DB i& configured NODE A.
    During Conversion of DB to OFS .. my verification failed many times & i found this is the reason..
    The database must be cluster-enabled so that it can be switched between nodes as a group
    of resources. To do this, you create an Oracle Fail Safe group and then add the database of
    the SAP system to this group.
    I have done this in the following process....using linkd.exe i have shared the oracle home & mapped to local drives on both the nodes as suggested in DB upgrade & my DB verification was successful..
    However it was not provided in Instguide.. or did i missed to read some where..
    Please also advice me am i doing it in correct process...for DB cluster enabling
    thanks,
    rahul..

  • Is patching Sol 10 machines with zones safe?

    Now that Sun update has been released, "smpatch update" explicitly checks for the presence of non global zones and refused to run.
    Now, its fairly trival to reproduce the "smpatch update" functionality from "smpatch download" which still works and a bit of scripting.
    Ive done this on a test machine with zones with no obvious ill effects.
    However since Sun went to the trouble of disabling "smpatch update", you have to presume there was a good reason.
    So is patching machines with zones safe. Or is there some known problem with doing this.

    The problem was that the underlying tool patchadd was not zones aware and then changes (I believe for bug: 6200143 ) changed the exit codes that smpatch relies on.
    Now in Solaris 10 patchadd/patchrm now returns only an exit code of 1 or 0 when using zones which is insufficient both for smpatch and for the Update Manager.
    So there are two options:
    If the system does not have any local zones configured then you can run "patchadd -t" in transitional mode which reverts back to the old pre Solaris 10 rich return codes that smpatch needs.
    If there are zones on the system, using smpatch download + patchadd will work, but you cannot get rich status from patchadd:
    Running "patchadd -t" on a system with local zones gives:
    # patchadd -t
    Transition patching (-t option) is not supported in a zones environment.

    To use servlets u have indeed to update your web.xml...Well I'm not sure this is relevant to your case anyway.
    You have to add a <servlet> element to this file.
    Something like this:
    <servlet>
    <servlet-name>blabla</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>blablapackage.Blablaclass</servlet-class>
    <init-param>...</init-param>
    </servlet>
    Now this may not solve your problem. Make sure you refer to your servlets using their full qualified names.btw, just to be sure, what is your definition of "servlet"? (i mean: any java class or only javax.servlet.Servlet)

  • Unit Testing with Microsoft Sharepoint Emulators and Fakes with Visual Studio 2013

    Hi All,
    I have created Test Project and now creating Test cases for Sharepoint. I found a link on MSDN which suggests using Fakes framework but it supports VS2012 and I am using Visual Studio 2013.
    So how can I use it with VS2013 or is there any other way with which I can implement the Test cases with VS2013.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks in advance.
    Himanshu Nigam

    Hi HimanshuNigam,
    According to your descrition, my understanding is that you want to use Fakes framework to create test case for SharePoint project in Visual Studio 2013.
    If you want to test using Fakes Framework, you can use the codeplex extension to achieve it. It supports Visual Studio 2013.
    Here is a detailed article for your reference:
    Better Unit Testing with Microsoft Fakes
    About how to include the Nuget package, you can use the package with the link below:
    NuGet Package Manager for Visual Studio 2013
    Installing NuGet
    If you still have question about this issue, I suggest you can create a post in Visual Studio, more experts will help you and you can get more detailed information from there:

  • How to Create and Test a Zone of Type F1-APP-URL

    Hi,
    I would like to how to create and test a Zone of Type F1-APP-URL?
    What all is required to setup an ADF application based URL in F1-APP-URL, what to configure and what are the basics or definite steps required to have a Zone of Type F1-APP-URL up and running in the application? Any Sample ADF components to be created?
    Please kindly let me know. Any test or dummy URL existing already which is based on ADF?

    Refer to Doc. Id 1515146.1 on the support site. Although for the moment it refers to a MWM example and may not be much of a help but it'd give a basic idea as to how it should be done.

  • How to stop an error message that pops up every time I open Safari. It reads...Safari 5.1 (v6534.50) has not been tested with the plugin PithHelmet .As a precaution, it has not been loaded. Please contact the plugin developer.

    How do I stop this error message from popping up every time I start up Safari ?
    Error message reads...
    Safari 5.1 (v6534.50) has not been tested with the plugin Pithhelmet 3.0b6 (v 3006)
    As a precaution, it has not been loaded. Please contact the plugin developer.
    I have removed every trace of Pithhelmet, (via spotlight)
    Trashed the preferences for Safari, restarted computer to no avail.
    It just  keeps keepin on.
    Thanks

    In the past I was able to bypass the message by editing the Info.plist file and updating the MaxBundleVersion variable, but not so this time around. As of today the developer seems to indicate there's no immediate fix becuase of how Safari 5.1 handles multiprocess page rendering. Probably best to stay tuned to Mike's website for now.

    this one is actually a really rare symptom of a flaky connection to the ipod on a Windows PC. there's more going on in terms of hardware on nanos and 5th gens than in the earlier models ... so if the connection is flaky to precisely the right/wrong degree, itunes will see the ipod, but misidentify it as an earlier version of ipod.
    tracking down the cause of the flakiness can be tricky ... as you already know ...
    just checking. have you tried connecting with a different (known-good) USB cable? does that seem to have any impact on the rate of occurence of the problem?
