Creating a Zone with ufs?

Hi all,
When you create a zone though Ops Center does it try and format the file system as ZFS? Can you make a Zone with a UFS?
Thanks,
Shawn

Hi Shawn,
Ops Center can manage existing "brownfield" zones on other filesystems (i.e. UFS)... but any new ones that you have it create will be on ZFS (see here: http://wikis.sun.com/display/EM11gOC1/Creating+Zones)

Build Solaris 8 branded zone with ufs /var etc

We have an ancient application which runs on Solaris 8 which we would like to move to a Branded zone. The issue we have is that the application does a fstyp (but within the binary) on any file system that its is writing to and barfs if it doesn't recognise the type. Unfortunately we are limited to basically ufs and vxfs.
The problem is that I need to have /var configured as a UFS filesystem during the zone build ......
Now I know all of the methods that can be used to mount a filesystem within a branded zone:
1) Add FS within zonecfg ... fstype doesn't return UFS
2) LOFS : Doesn't return UFS
3) Mounting a file system after zone boot .... Great for non-system filesystems but not for /var
4) "add device" ... might work BUT I need to build /var during zone configuration .,.....
Any ideas?
Edited by: user13012897 on Dec 8, 2010 5:41 AM

It's not straightforward, but I'd consider writing an interposer library that gets loaded via LD_PRELOAD and gives a different answer than fstyp() would normally give.

Created zone with defaults won't boot completely (Solaris 10, Update 1)

If I create a zone with defaults, i.e. allowing the zone to inherit the typical package dirs, the resulting zone does not boot completely. When I attach to the zone via zlogin, the zone looks to be in an administrative state. It never boots to a point where one would typically enter in the initial configuration info, e.g. timezone and root password.
However if I create the zone after first removing the inherited dirs, the zone boots to a state where it subsequently can be confiured and fully booted.
Looks as if the SMF facilities are not fully initialized when the zone is configured to inherit its packages. This could be a red herring as I'm a newbie who's moved over from Linux and starting to understand SMF specifically and Solaris in general.
I did not have this problem with Solaris 10. I've just installed Solaris 10 Update 1; the problem seems specific to that installation. I reinstalled and the problem persists.

I snipped the output because there were some errors, which on retrospect seems to have been a silly decision. I repeated the process and captured the missing output:

The file </zone/foo/root/var/sadm/system/logs/install_log> contains a log of the zone installation.The packages are related to App development and X11. I don't see any that might be related to SMF.
The logfile is too large to post at over 37K lines. However there seemed to be a pattern to the package failures. Hopefully these greps highlight the important messages:

> What does "svcadm list -vc" give you when you started the zone ?
I took that as a typo, instead using "zoneadm?"
# zoneadm list -vc
ID NAME             STATUS         PATH
   0 global           running        /
   7 foo              running        /zone/fooThe zone is not on its own slice, however "/zone" is mounted as a loopback from /export/zone. I don't think that's a problem since the zone install seems to work if I don't inherit packages. Unless perhaps its a nesting level of lofs's.

Cannot create solaris 10 zone with flar archive

Hello,
i'm trying to configure a solaris zones with a flar archive of a solaris 10 system.
i've followed the procedure described here : http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/submitted/branded_zones_flash.jsp
whenever i try to create a zone and use: set brand=solaris10 the commit will fail with Unknown brand Missing document.
solaris version is Solaris 10 5/08 s10s_u5wos_10 SPARC and i have both the Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 container software installed.
is there another way to install a zone with the native brand or solaris 10 using an archive of some sort?
kind regards,

Thanks,
I've figured as much as using a whole root zone but i still struggle with the configuration of a solaris10 brand and the creation of a zone config with that brand.
I might be bettor of installing the zone without the flar image and try to copy the needed files and applications to the zone.
I only need the solaris10 brand zone to test the flar image so i can use it to restore the system with flar and jumpstart.

Creating appointments in a different time zone with accuracy

I have my computer setup to set the date and time automatically. I also have iCal set to my current time zone. How do you create appointments for times in a different time zone with accuracy while you are in your current time zone?
For example, when I prepare for a business trip, I set my agenda in iCal while I'm at home. All of these appointments show up in my current time zone. When I get to my destination the times for my appointments are incorrect. I live in New York, but have a meeting in LA. The meeting is at 8:00 am PST. When I'm home, I set the appointment for 8:00 am, but by default, it is EST. When I get to LA, even if u change the time zone settings, the appointment shows up as 5:00 am PST. Do I need to set the appointment for 5:00 am while I'm at home in New York to take into account the time difference? Seems confusing and difficult to manage on a continual basis.
Any suggestions?
Mac

To elaborate further - what the current iOS manual says about times zones is:
_*When Time Zone Support is on, Calendar displays event dates and times in the time zone of the city you selected. When Time Zone Support is off, Calendar displays events in the time zone of your current location as determined by the network time.*_
Does that mean with time zone support off that when you move from one time zone to another and your phone readjusts its time setting that the appointment times are changed also or does it mean that the assumption is made that the event time is to be left as is. I believe it is the latter, but the description makes it sound to me like the opposite.
I do know that if one has time zone support enabled and you are in FL with an appointment with a California time zone enabled the time shown for the event will be 3 hours later. The description seems to say the opposite, but that was my experience in the past. In addition if time zone support is enabled and you change time zones, the time shown for the appointment will be changed.
For me at least a much clearer descrpition of what time zone support does is needed.
+*We need a checkbox that says adjust appointment time to correspond with time zone you are in in comparison to zone of event, and a checkbox that says:absolutely don't change the times I enter for events.*+

Do we need to create two zones for Two HBA for a host connected with SAN ?

Hi,While creating Zone , Do we need to create two zones for Two HBA for a host connected with SAN ? Or a zone is enough for
a host which having Two HBAs...We have two 9124s for our SAN fabric...
As I found like one zone below, I little bit confused that , if a host having two HBA connected with SAN, should I expect two zones for every Host?
from the zone set, I gave the command show zoneset
zone name SQLSVR-X-NNN_CX4 vsan 1
    pwwn 50:06:NN:NN:NN:NN:NN:NN
    pwwn 50:06:NN:NN:NN:NN:NN:NN
          pwwn 10:00:NN:NN:NN:NN:NN:NN
But I found only one zone for the server's HBA2:by the same time in the fabric I found switches A & B showing the WWNs of those HBAs on its
connected N port...Its not only for this server alone, but for all hosts..Can you help me to clarify on this please..that should we need to create one zone for
one HBA?

if u have two independent fabrics between hosts and storage, i think the below confs are recommended.
Scenario 1: 2 HBAs single port each ( redundancy across HBA / Storage port )
HBA1 - port 0 ---------> Fabric A ----------> Storage port ( FAx/CLx )
HBA2 - port 0 ---------> Fabirc B ----------> Storage port ( FAy/CLy )
Scenario 2: 2 HBAs of dual port each
HBA1 - port 0 -------> Fabric A ---------> Storage port ( FAx/CLx )
HBA2 - port0 ---------> Fabric A ---------> Storage port ( FAs/CLs )
HBA1 - port 1 --------> Fabric A --------> Storage port ( FAy/CLy )
HBA2 - port 1 ---------> Fabric B --------> Storage port ( FAt/CLt )
the zone which is in your output is VSAN 1. if its a production VSAN, Cisco doesn't recomends to use VSAN 1 ( default vsan ) for production.

Hi
No Menu on DVD
from. Mishmunken
How to create a DVD in iDVD6 without menu (there are several options)
1. Easy. Drop your iMovie in the auto-play box in iDVD's Map View, then set your auto-play item (your movie) to loop continuously.
Disadvantage. The DVD plays until you hit stop on the remote
2. Still easy. If you don't want your (auto-play) movie to loop, you can create a black theme by replacing the background of a static theme with a black background and no content in the drop-zone (text needs to be black as well).
Disadvantage. The menu is still there and will play after the movie. You don't see it, but your disc keeps spinning in the player.
3. Still quite easy but takes more time. Export the iMovie to DV tape, and then re-import using One-Step DVD.
Disadvantage. One-Step DVD creation has been known to be not 100% reliable.
4. (My preferred method) Easy enough but needs 3rd party software. Toast lets you burn your iMovie to DVD without menu - just drag the iMovie project to the Toast Window and click burn.
Disadvantage. you'll need to spend some extra $$ for the software. In Toast, you just drop the iMovie project on the Window and click Burn.
5. The "hard way". Post-production with myDVDedit (free-ware)
Tools necessary. myDVDedit ( www.mydvdedit.com )
• create a disc image of your iDVD project, then double-click to mount it.
• Extract the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders to a location of your choice. select the VIDEO_TS folder and hit Cmd + I to open the Inspector window
• Set permissions to "read & write" and include all enclosed items; Ignore the warning.
• Open the VIDEO_TS folder with myDVDedit. You'll find all items enclosed in your DVD in the left hand panel.
• Select the menu (usually named VTS Menu) and delete it
• Choose from the menu File > Test with DVD Player to see if your DVD behaves as planned. If it works save and close myDVDedit.
• Before burning the folders to Video DVD, set permissions back to "read only", then create a disc image burnable with Disc Utility from a VIDEO_TS folder using Laine D. Lee's DVD Imager.

Oracle 10 g non-global zones with asynchronous I/O

Hi,
I note that using direct I/O (by setting the forcedirectio while
mounting the database file systems) and bypassing the file system
cache may improve database performance significantly, but this should
be done only for file systems in which database files and redo log
files exist. If direct I/O is used and there is not enough database
buffer cache, it may even decrease the performance by moving the
problem from double buffering to a lack of database buffer cache. So,
this performance tuning must be planned carefully, and the database
buffer cache should be sized properly. The direct I/O option should
not be used for other file systems used by other applications because
they still need the UFS buffer cache.
Now, I have Oracle database installed inside a non-global zone and I
see a lot of Asynchronous I/O wait warnings in the Oracle Alert log
file. Storage mount points with UFS filesystem contain the Oracle
datafiles and redo log files. In addition, two Oracle datafiles of 10
GB each reside on the local disks. The Oracle init.ora parameter to
set asynchronous I/O for Oracle database files is
FILESYSTEMIO_OPTIONS= SETALL.
Although the above parameter was set during the database installation,
the aiowait warnings don't seem to disappear.
Can I use the "forcedirectio" option at the Operating System /etc/
vfstab file for Oracle datafiles and redo log files?
Or, should I just move the Oracle database files residing on the local
disks to the external storage? Will this take care of aiowait warnings
and if yes, how? The storage is a DAS.

I presume you compiled php on the Sun server, was this done using gcc or the Sun One C compiler.
If the latter then you can also use the flag: --enable-nonportable-atomics when you run configure

Issues create quick events with GMT timezone in Calendar.

Hi All,
I have the following issue. I live The Netherlands but for my work I work with the UK. As they are in GMT and I am in CET I regularly create an event with GMT time in mind.
I also use Quick Events a lot. So I click on create quick event and I a type i.e. blah blah 9PM GMT. So far so good. So in this case 9PM GMT is 10PM CET.
However and I am not sure of this, but pretty sure, after the move to summertime the GMT moves two hours ahead. So the event at 9PM GMT now shows as 11PM CET.
Is anybody else having this issue?

Thank for your input. I, however, can't totally agree
your opinions.They're not opinions. They're facts, backed partially by the code I already posted, and more by code I've been dealing with for a couple of years.
Although I can parse the date & time data by using
the dateFormat as what you describe, I believe one
Java API class shall take care it.I don't know what you mean by this, but Calendar is not the appropriate class here.
The reason I want to preserve the user's time zone is
for user respective. I can ingore the time zone and
present the date data with the server machine time
zone configuration. This approach is not good for a
user. Some in Europe, for example, wouldn't want to
the time in the Pacific time zone format.You're not understanding what I'm saying.
The user tells you his TZ. He has to at some point, else you can't support TZ-specific input and display. You save that with the user profile, not with each date.
So I register with your site, and I tell you my TZ is GMT-8 (US/Los Angeles).
Later, you want to record what time something happens. You only need to look at what time it is on the server. You store that Timestamp. When it's time to display that to me--like to display the time I posted a message--you get the timestamp from the DB, and then you format it with a DateFormat whose TZ has been set to "US/Los Angeles" or "PST" or something. It will be displayed correctly.
If you want to ask me what time something happened, and you're assuming I'll be entering it in my local time, then you take the string I provide--say "2006-04-09 11:04"--then you parse that with a DF that has its TZ set to "PST" or whatever. What you save to the DB is a Timestamp created from the Date you got from the parse().
By storing a Date or Timestamp, you're not losing TZ information. You're storing the point in time at which something happened, later, when you're ready to display that, you convert that point in time to the relevant TZ. No information is lost.

IPMP in a Zone with exclusive IP-stack

Hello,
I'm looking for some Infos or Advices about IPMP in a Zone with exclusive IP-stack.
Should I create for each Zone an IPMP Group ? Any Best Practices ?
Regards.

Yes. IPMP must be managed within the zone for exclusive IP case.
One best practice is to create a VNIC per physical interface per
each zone and assign the VNICs to the zone. You can
configure the IPMP interface over the two VNICs assigned to the zone.

Control Drop Zone with Button State

Does anyone know if you can control the display of a drop zone with the state of a button. I am working on an exercise video and would like change an image based on the selected state of three different buttons.

Use auto actions on your buttons to jump to new (almost identical) menus with different drop zone video. Auto action can be set in the Button Property Inspector/Advanced Tab. Auto-action will automatically goto the jump target (another menu) upon selection of the button. Don't set an auto-action on the button the jumps to your desired target track.
eg. - Create 3 menus A, B and C.
"Menu A" should have: 1) "Button A" as the default selected button and a jump target to whatever track you want, 2) "Button B" should have auto-action that jumps to "Menu B" and 3) "Button C" should have auto-action that jumps to "Menu C".
"Menu B" should have: 1) "Button B" as the default selected button, and a jump target to whatever track you want, 2) "Button A" should have auto-action that jumps to "Menu A" and 3) "Button C" should have auto-action that jumps to "Menu C".
"Menu C" should have: 1) "Button C" as the default selected button, and a jump target to whatever track you want, 2) "Button A" should have auto-action that jumps to "Menu A" and 3) "Button B" should have auto-action that jumps to "Menu B".

Zone with multiple logical interfaces

Hi,
How can multiple logical network interfaces be added to a running zone?
I have configured and installed a whole root zone with one shared-ip network interface.
Now, I need to add more logical interfaces to the same zone.
On a physical server with a bge interface, I would create a /etc/hostname file for each logical interface such as
$ ls /etc | grep host
hostname.bge0
hostname.bge0:1
hostname.bge0:2
hostname.bge0:3
hostname.bge0:4
hostname.bge1
hostname.bge1:1
hostname.bge1:2
hostname.bge1:3
hostname.bge3
hosts
$How can the above be done for a zone?

Hi
This requires 2 steps. Firstly update your zone configuration to add the logical interface and its associated IP address.
Assuming from below you want the logical interface to be added to bge0 then do the following replacing the zonename and ip address for whatever is appropriate for you.
# zonecfg -z itchyzone
zonecfg:itchyzone1> add net
zonecfg:itchyzone1:net> set address=192.168.1.21
zonecfg:itchyzone1:net> set physical=bge0
zonecfg:itchyzone1:net> end
zonecfg:itchyzone1> exitYou can do the above as many times as you like to create multiple logical interfaces for the zone.
After doing the above you will need to reboot the zone to get the new logical interface.
However if you cant reboot the zone you can plumb a logical interface into the zone by running something similar to the following (change for your zonename, IP etc) from the global zone:
# ifconfig bge0 addif 192.168.1.21 netmask + broadcast + zone itchyzone1 upyou will now have an extra interface in the zone (in this case called itchyzone1). To verify, login to the zone and run ifconfig -a and you will see your new interface.
# zlogin itchyzone1
