Experience with Sun Fire 4800 and OVM 3.0.3?

Greetings,
We are looking to confirm with "first hand experience" if Oracle VM 3.0.3 works on the Sun Fire 4800 server platform.
We would really appreciate your comments about your experience running Oracle VM 3.0.3 on the Sun Fire 4800 series platform.
Thank you,
Roddy

I have been able to install Oracle VM on X4800 3.0.3 if thats whats you mean, I however having a few other issues with using Pillar Axiom FC plugins with it, I have ongoing SR on it. The release note(http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26996_01/e18546.pdf) for OracleVM 3.0.3 provides some useful hints for installing the server on a 4800.

I have a plan to shutdown this machine for about 30 minutes for hardware maintenance checking.
But, I can not shutdown it using command "power-off" at "OK" prompt.(before, I use "init 0" to "OK" prompt)
I got this message :
{13} ok power-off
ERROR: do_interpret: no such symbol "power-off"

Dear All,
Sorry, if I ask this question to this forum again. Yesterday, I tried to shutdown SUN Fire 4800 machine. It is the same machine which I asked to all of you before.
At "OK" prompt, I typed *#.* in order to go to SC (System Controller) to shutdown the Machine. (As I know that "OK" prompt just shutdown the OS level)
But, I got the Error message.. These are commands that I have typed, but still did not work
{12} ok ~#
ERROR: do_interpret: no such symbol "~#"
ERROR: undefined word
{12} ok ~.
ERROR: do_interpret: no such symbol "~."

ERROR: do_interpret: no such symbol "~#"
ERROR: undefined word
{12} ok #
ERROR:
I also tried to type command :(This comamand I got from SUN Firev4800 manual reference)
OK ctrl - ]
I connect to SUN Fire 4800 using serial cable (DB25) to USB port at my laptop, using either "Hyperterminal" or "TeraTerm"
-Bit persecond : 9600
-Data Bit : 8
-Parity : None
-Stop Bits : 1
-Flow Control : None
I can see the screen and typed "init 0" to go to "OK" prompt.But it still does not work. What happen? What should I do? For this case, is there any influence from "keyboard" layout (because I use my laptop keyboard) ?
Note : I also tried typed *"init 5"* to shutdown the server, but it still go to "OK" prompt
Please suggest...
Thanks for any help

Anyone has experience with sun idm data exporter /warehouse funtionality ?

Anyone has experience with sun idm data exporter /warehouse functionality. There is not much documentation about how to debug it. I created everything like in the document. Everything seems running fine. I get the following the server tasks->Run Tasks
Data Warehouse Exporter Data Warehouse Exporter Configurator executing
Prior to that i created database and 50 tables as it said in the doc.
I created accounts and modify email address. Nothing is getting to my warehouse database and i don;t know where to look for the errors. Any information is appreciated.

Hi there,
I have been looking at the source code and I think I have found the problem.
IDM determines whether to update or create a resource account
by attempting to fetch the user from the resource.
If the user exists then update, otherwise create.
In the code, if the user does not exist, the code throws the
exception: EntityDoesNotExist(1301)
The code then catches this exception
and then returns a null back to IDM,
indicating that the user does not exist.
Well, that is what the code says but this does
not match its actual behaviour....
I then decompiled the actual class (jar) files
and the code there does NOT catch the exception,
so it bubbles up to IDM, which regards it as an error.
Soo, the jar file that is on the website has a bug in it.
The source code in SVN is correct, but it appears
that the jar file was not rebuilt.
I am attempting to rebuild a new version of the jar file...

Please could you tell me what DLT/SDLT/Ultrium series drive works with Sun Fire V880 with SCSI Sun X

Please could you tell me what DLT/SDLT/Ultrium series drive works with Sun Fire V880 with SCSI Sun X6540A?
The question is URGENT because we need to do backup/restore of our Databases but we have not backup device...
We want to buy it but we don't know what exactly drives we can choose for our Sun with X6540A SCSI card.

Hello,
the X6540A is a Dual Single-Ended Ultra/Wide SCSI (PCI) controller. The controller is only upto 40MB/sec, which might be suficient for a SDLT600 or LTO-2.
Every Single-Ended SCSI device works with this card, but performance would be low when using LVD/SE devices (some LVD devices can't operate in SE mode!)
I would suggest that you call Sun Sales.
I guess that the PCI/PCI-X Dual Ultra320 SCSI Adapter (SG-XPCI2SCSI-LM320) or PCI Dual Ultra3 SCSI Host Adapter (LVD) (X6758A) are a better choice if attaching more recent drives.
This is the Sun Fire V880 - Full Components List.

Looking for the right KVM drawer and switch for SUN Fire v240 and v880

Hi,
We have Sun Fire v240, v880, and four dell servers in a Shark Rack. The LCD monitor and keyboard drawer and the KVM switch were part of the original installation from Shark Rack. The switch and the monitor stop responding from time to time so I am looking for a replacement.
I am surprised that the prices for the KVM drawer are very different from different manufactures. I was just wondering whether I really need a SUN ready certified KVM drawer. If anyone has any experiences(good or bad) with getting a new KVM, please share it with me.
If the KMV drawer is compatible with SUN systems, do I need to install any patch on the system or it's simply plug and play?
Thanks!

For most SPARC based Sun Servers you do not need a KVM switch, but merely a terminal switch which you can attach to the console port of the Sun Server. There are plenty of Terminal Servers to choose from, the most recent i bought was a Cyclade, which works very well and allows you to ssh to a console..

Bad experience with Verizon Fios Internet and Customer Service

I had an extremely bad experience with Verizon Fios Internet service and I will never use Verizon again.
In August 2014, I called and installed the Verizon Fios Internet and phone bundle. I asked the customer agent several times if I will be charged anything before the installation of the Internet and phone service. She said, 'No, we will only start charging after the Internet and phone are installed at your apartment'. I went to the store and picked up the router and phone and installed it at home by myself. The router did not work. I called Tech support and they said it will take several days for another available agent to come and look into the issue. I decided to discontinue the service and closed the account that same night.
At the end of the month, I received a bill of $80 of activation fee for the internet service. Nothing was ever activated, my internet router did not work, and I got charged an activation fee for a service that I did not even start using. From August to December, I called customer service over 10 times and some of them said they will waive it while the others said it's a non-refundable activation fee. One lady said, 'Ma'am, the activation fee starts when you placed the order, the warehouse received it and packed the router in the boxes....' Isn't that ridiculous? If that's the case, please ask all your customer representative to say a clause before new customers open their account: Are you aware that you will be charged a non-refundable activation fee once you open the account regardless of whether or not you use the service or not.
So after 3 months (November 2014), I decided to get out of all these troubles and paid off my $80 activation fee. They put the bill in the collection agency and I called them and paid the overdue balance. Then in December 2014, I received a statement saying I have a $3.11 overdue balance. The collection agency told me that they will charge me for the whole activation fee and a $3 transaction fee for the transaction. So now Verizon came back and said I owed them the $3 because I paid the collection agency their transaction fee.
I am very disappointed and furious about the whole Verizon operating system. Charging a customer for an activation fee for a service s/he has not consumed or used does not make any business sense. In addition, they do not know how to coordinate with the collection agency on overdue bills. Give the customer a heads-up that they will be charged a transaction fee on top of the overdue balance, and that transaction fee does not count towards clearing the balance.
I have completely lost my confidence in Verizon albeit the many good feedback from my friends.

Hi crystallau52,
Sorry you are having difficulty. An agent with access to your account will reach out to you directly by email, private message in the Forums and/or the billing telephone number on your Verizon account for more information or to help you resolve your issue.

User Experience with CS/CS2 fonts and font management

Im just ordered a 2.0MBP and am wondering about other user's experience with the MBP and CS or CS2 running in Rosetta as well as font management. I know there are lots of post about Adobe and Rosetta, but no cohesive forums describing what most user's experiences have been- both good and bad.
I plan on running CS (all apps except Version Cue) as i will wait for CS3 and skip over CS2. For fonts im currently running FontExplorer X and plan on continuing.
Id love to hear what Adobe software is working well (or not), what font management you are using and what system.
15inch G4Ti-Book, G5 Quad, MBP 2.0 (ordered) Mac OS X (10.4.5)

So im curious, out of these applications i have installed will any of them install anything into the MacHD>Users>Applenewton>Library>Fonts Folder?
I have installed:
Adobe CS2
Macromedia Studio 8
Microsoft Office 2004
iknow those apps have their own fonts they use to work with their programs
i just want to know what would be safe to move around or remove period from my user font library.
i dont mean to sound redundant but i spaced out/forgot how i originally organized my fonts i know i added certain fonts to my font folder in my user's library font folder but cant recall if i added arial/verdana and some other fonts.
is there to check what apps depend on them or what?
thanks in advanced!

My experience with the white 3g and genius bar(apple support).

I bought my white iphone 3g 2 weeks after the release. 2 weeks later i notices a couple of hairline fractures on the case. One between the screen and headphone jacks and another between the charge/pc plug in and screen.
I did some searching and found it was a common problem and people were upset about it. I didn't mind so much since it was barely noticeable and did not affect the phone. I used my phone everyday for work, school, and personnel. I had the same experience everyone else had with it slowing down on the contacts and the typing coming to a near halt.
I was grateful when apple released a firmware update to address these issues. I'm an understanding person who understands that early adopting can have its drawbacks.
So back to the problems I had.
About 3 weeks ago my phone started doing something really weird. I was walking to class and the thing would vibrate every couple of second. I took it out of my pocket and it stopped. I thought there is no way i was hitting the toggle switch to silent. So after handling it for a few seconds, I noticed that it would go into silent and right back out when ever I put small pressure the case in the back. Having to go to class, I just put it in my book bag and ignored it for now. After class I took it out and it continue to do this. I did a hard reset and it still did it. So weird. So I carried on and came home that night. The next morning it had stopped bugging out. So I thought no more about it.
About 4 days after this my phone starting really going crazy. It would go on and off with no touch at all. I would shut off all together and come back on. Volume would go up and down for no reason. After about an hour of doing this I took it the ATT store, even though I knew they couldn't do anything for it. The ATT rep was puzzled to as it continued to do this.
I called and made an appointment at the Apple Store in Knoxville TN with the Genius guys. Since Knoxville is a 2 hour drive and I went to school and worked I made the appointment for Sunday. After leaving the ATT store and going home to bed the problem ceased that night. The next morning was Sunday so I canceled my appointment, as I did not want to drive 2 hours oneway if the phone was working fine.
This weekend I went down to GA to visit family. Today, on the way back I stopped at the Apple Store. Even though I didn't have an appointment I spoke with a rep and he said they would work me in since I don't live close by. After waiting for about 45 mins they had a slot open up.
I explained to the genius tech the problems the phone was having. As he looked over it he saw a hairline fracture on the back just beside the apple symbol about an inch long. I never noticed it. Apparently the case had been putting pressure on a circuit board causing some weird things to happen.
He promptly pulled out a brand new iphone and put my sim card it it. After a couple of minutes updating the new phone and clearing the old one of data, I was on my way.
So I guess what I'm saying is that I'm glad Apple is stepping up and doing the right thing. They continue to work on the os, apple store, and provide great in store support.
Two thumbs up for the Knoxville Apple Store

Serial numbers starting with 5K are white box only. They could be refurbished or new, but are coming from a China plant according to the serial number checker.
I received a 5K white box replacement Friday, and its perfect. So if it was refurbished or new, this factory is doing a good job with them.

Experiences with Sun T2000 servers on SAP systems

Hello,
We are currently involved in a project to migrate our SAP systems from a Windows 2003 to a Solaris 10 platform. Our application server layer will be based on Sun T2000 servers for both ABAP and Java stacks.
I would be interested in hearing from anyone using T2000s in the application server layer to understand their perception of the performance of these systems.
Thanks in advance,
Brendan Byrne

We have actually solved the issues sourrounding performance on sun multi threaded servers.
What you need to do is create a 'Zone' on the solaris server and then allocate resources to the zone.
Then sap seems to fly.
This is fully supported by the way.
Just set this up with NW7 on a T2000 and some T5120's
Basically what occurs is that you setup SAP on one zone.
You then allocate the full 64cpus to this zone, as well as the 32/64gb of ram.
SAP runs as one thread within the zone, but the zone then allocates this thread across all the cpus.
Works like a dream,
Regards
James

Debuging with Sun java AS and eclipse

hi,
i'm using eclipse 3.4 and sun java as 8.2 as application server.
when i used first tomcat and in my code i put system.out.println("...") the console showed the result, now using sun as i can not see anything ?
what to do to print in the console (without running in debug mode if possible).

I found an acceptable work-around for this issue of not being able to specify Sun Java as the default JRE for browsers in our environment.
I replaced our APPLET tags with OBJECT tags in our HTML code. This allowed me to specify a Java version using a classid value, like so:
Original APPLET tag:
<applet name="SPCchart" code="iSPCChart" codebase="/XMII/Classes" archive="illum8.zip" mayscript>
<param name="QueryTemplate" value="Metrics_ING/ING_010Query">
<param name="DisplayTemplate" value="Metrics_ING/ING_010SPCChart">
</applet>
New OBJECT tag:
<object name="SPCChart" classid="clsid:CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-FFFF-ABCDEFFEDCBA" mayscript>
<PARAM name="code" value="iSPCChart">
<PARAM name="codebase" value="/XMII/Classes">
<PARAM name="archive" value="illum8.zip">
<param name="QueryTemplate" value="Metrics_ING/ING_010Query">
<param name="DisplayTemplate" value="Metrics_ING/ING_010SPCChart">
</object>
The specific classid specifies any Java version in the 1.6.0 family. (We're using 1.6.0_05)
We're not yet in production so we're not talking about having to update thousands of APPLET tags.
Does anyone see any problem to this approach - switching APPLET tags to OBJECT tags and specifying the appropriate Java CLASSID?

Trouble with Sun One 7 and JAAS

Guys,
I've been having a trouble with JAAS and Sun One 7:
- An user1 logins at application and then, open an authorized page;
- After x minutes (expressed in session-config web.xml tag), login page is automatically loaded;
- At this time, an user2 (with another profile) logins in the same app, after expired session from user1.
So, what's happening? User2 can access the same page User1 had accessed, but User2 is more restrictive than User1, so, he couldn't access the resource.
Please, help me, I don't know what to do.
Thank u,
Evandro.

Hi
If you want to send messages around an application using the embedded S1MQ message broker, the trick is that -- in general -- you must create the message destinations on the broker as a separate step from configuring the appserver. Then you tell the appserver how to bind a JNDI name to the destination on the broker. To create the destination on the broker, you can use the imqadmin tool (which is part of the message broker, and not the appserver). You can create both queues and topics this way. Let's suppose you created a queue called `fred'. Then you need to bind a JNDI name to this queue on the appserver.:
asadmin create-jms-resource user admin password somepassword resourcetype javax.jms.Queue property imqDestinationName=fred jms/fred
Then in the application server code you can get to the message queue by looking up `jms/fred' (strictly speaking, you should look up a java:comp/env name which you bind to jms/fred in your deployment descriptor, but that's another matter).
You'll need to do the same thing for the queue connection factory: create it using imqadmin, then bind it using asadmin.
You can do the asadmin stuff instead using the web-based admin console, but you can't (so far as I know) create the actual destinations on the broker this way.
I hope this helps. If it doesn't, copies of the relevant error message -- in full -- would help me.
Best wishes
Kevin

Using OCI8 driver with Sun ONE AS7 and Oracle 9

Hi
I am writing a bean that needs to access an Oracle Database.
I have defined in AS7 a connection pool, that looks like:
<jdbc-connection-pool steady-pool-size="8" max-pool-size="32" max-wait-time-
in-millis="60000" pool-resize-quantity="2" idle-timeout-in-seconds="300" is-isol

<property value="user" name="user"/>
<property value="passwd" name="password"/>
<property value="jdbc:oracle:oci8:@eundev:EUNDEV" name="URL"/>
</jdbc-connection-pool>
My code does a JNDI lookup DataSource, which succeeds.
However, the getConnection always fails, and throws the following exception:

I used dbping tool from iplanet and could define a new connection and connect successfully,
But trying to use the existing connection always fail with the same 'MissingMethod' exception.
Can someone help?
Thanks a lot
Jean-Noel Colin

Here is your problem:
jdbc:oracle:oci8:@eundev:EUNDEV
the last part is wrong. Driver will see the EUNDEV as password. After @ , just specify the tnsName that you have, no " : "
you do have a property called "password" already.
It should be something like this:
jdbc:oracle:oci8@eundev
