Getting full ZFS support under Solaris 10 3/05

Hello,
I have Solaris 10 3/05, and would like to get full ZFS support as easy as possible (ie, without installing all the patches I can get through smpatch).
Is it sufficient to add the 122640-05 patch (which is in the recommended cluster) and follow the instructions at the end of its readme file : "To get the complete zfs feature please also install the following patches... ... ..." ?
Would it be compatible with my old install of Solaris 10 (3/05) ?
Or is there a special cluster that would add all the ZFS support ?
Thank you.
fab

You might be better off downloading solaris 10 11/06 and doing an upgrade install.

  • ZFS options for Solaris 10 5/08 install?

    In the next couple weeks I'll be installing Solaris 10 on a new Intel box that will be my
    new workstation. For various reasons, I won't be installing OpenSolaris or Solaris Express, I'll be going with plain vanilla Solaris 10.
    I can find a lot of links from the 2005, 2006, and 2007 era about the effort needed to
    use zfs for the / or boot filesystems and/or about what's supported in OpenSolaris now,
    but I haven't had any luck tracking down what my ZFS options are these days, with
    plain vanilla Solaris 10.
    Can any part of the OS (e.g. /usr, /var) be created as ZFS at install time (I'll be doing an interactive install, and it doesn't matter to me whether I use the text-based or graphical installer)? Can / be zfs at install time?
    I'll have two SATA II disks in the new workstation, so ideally I would like to mirror as much of the OS as possible.
    Thanks,
    Tim

    If you search around enough you're bound to run across some recipe to boot Solaris 10 with ZFS support.I had seen old blog and other recipes for OpenSolaris on booting from ZFS, but I was specifically interested in what was available directly from a fresh install.
    It looks like I'll just need to wait to install 10/08 to get the ZFS support I'm looking for.
    Thanks to you and Glen for the responses!

  • PAM Support fpr Solaris SGD 4.3

    Hi,
    where can I find more informations howw to integrate PAM Support under Solaris SGD 4.3
    I read in the relase notes:
    Support for PAM for UNIX User Authentication
    Secure Global Desktop now supports PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) for UNIX user authentication. The change affects the following login authorities:
    * ENS
    * UNIX User
    * UNIX Group
    Secure Global Desktop uses PAM for user authentication, account operations and password operations.
    When you install Secure Global Desktop on Linux platforms, Setup automatically creates PAM configuration entries for Secure Global Desktop by copying the current configuration for the passwd program and creating the /etc/pam.d/tarantella file. On Solaris OS platforms, you can add a new entry for Secure Global Desktop (tarantella) in the /etc/pam.conf file if required.
    Using PAM gives Secure Global Desktop Administrators more flexibility and control over UNIX user authentication, for example by adding new login tests, account limits, or valid password checks.
    But how this should be done, I could not find out....
    Regards
    Lukas

    Hi,
    Yes I now that. Pam is allways configured via Operating System. But where can I find some documentation how to configure pam to allow unix authentication against the ssgd.
    I do not want to create a unix user for each sgd user (ldap) which is using a AS 400 connection or a classroom object. So I that this could be done via PAM Module for ssgd
    Thanks for further advise.

  • How to create a full system image for Solaris 10 with ZFS

    Dear friend,
    could you please advice which way to create a full system image for Solaris 10 with ZFS is trusted and practically used?
    I'm searching the analogy like Norton Ghost or Acronis True Image but with ZFS support.
    I have x86 server Sun Netra X4270.

  • How do I get firewire support under XP running on OSX 10.8.2?

    I have an old Nikon film scanner that is bundled with Nikon scanning software that requires Windows XP.  The film scanner has only a firewire cable.  My iMac is running OSX 10.8.2.  I installed Oracle's (free) VirtualBox and was able to get XP running on my mac.  However, I soon discovered that VirtualBox has no firewire support.  That sent me searching for other methods of running XP under OSX.  I thought Apple's Parallels 8 software would do the trick but I don't believe it supports firewire either.
    Can anyone give me an idea of what software would allow me to run XP with firewire support under OSX 10.8.2?
    Another question:  Do those firewire-to-USB adapter plugs work and are they safe to use?
    For those who have familiarity with film scanners, VueScan is not a desirable option for me because it does not fully support Digital Ice, while Nikon's software does.
    Thanks..

  • Why do I get timeouts with a GPIB-ENET/100 under Solaris that I did not get with GPIB-ENET.

    We have an existing application that works fine under Solaris 2.6 and Solaris 7 with a GPIB-ENET. When we swap the GPIB-ENET with a GPIB-ENET/100, we get devices timeouts all the time.

    Hello-
    Unfortunately, it's difficult to determine any possible cause for this occurance. It was mentioned in a previous email that the instrument will communicate for a few commands. When does the timeout happen? What command fails? Also, what type of instrument is connected (make, model, etc)? Is this a timeout from the write or read? What is the distance of the Ethernet from the host? Is it possible that another machine is accessing the GPIB-ENET/100? Would it be possible to include the code that communicates with this instrument? Does ibic or VISAic communicate with the instrument without timeouts?
    Hopefully, this information can pinpoint the exact cause of the timeout.

  • TEMP tablespace getting full while inserting a CLOB in Trigger

    We have a Oracle 10g (10.2.0.4.0) DB on a Solaris 9 box which also runs our J2EE web-service application on Weblogic 8sp6 server.
    We get around 220K web-service requests from upstream callers daily to insert data in the main table, say TABLE1, which has daily partitions on a date column. This table has around 21 columns out of which 1 is a CLOB column.
    Now this table has an AFTER INSERT trigger which calls a package procedure to insert the same record into another table, say TABLE2.
    From Java application insert statement in executed in below format using a weblogic jdbc connection pool :
    INSERT INTO TABLE1(COLUMN1, COLUMN2, ........., CLOB_COLUMN,........, COLUMN21) VALUES (:1, :2, :3, :4, :5, :6, :7, :8, :9, :10, :11, :12, :13, :14, :15, :16, :17, :18, :19, :20);
    Clob object is prepared in application using ojdbc14.jar.
    We are observing a strange issue here. The TEMP tablespace utilization keeps on growing as more and more inserts are executed by application and after ~125K inserts the TEMP tablespace gets full and we start getting ORA-01652 error.
    On further analysis we could see that there are only 7-10 session being maintained but as more and more inserts happen TEMP tablespace utilization goes on increasing for each of these sessions.
    When we tried with inserting just few records and then watching the session details in v$session_wait then we could see that it is in INACTIVE state and waiting for the event ‘SQL*Net message from client’. This does not seem correct as the session has successfully inserted the data and committed the transaction and we can see the data in the tables as well.
    The confusing thing here is when we modify the trigger to pass blank string('' ) instead of the CLOB column to TABLE2 then this issue does not occur. All 200K records are inserted properly and TEMP tablespace utilization also keep always below 1%.
    Can you please help us in solving this issue. Is this related to any oracle issue?
    Inside the package we have tried using DBMS_COPY statement to copy the CLOB column after insert but still same result.

    My first thought on reading your post is that not only are you using a database version that is now so old it is in extended support and even then not even the most recent patchset for it.
    The first thing I would do is move to 11gR2 and if you can't do that at least get to 10.2.0.5 and apply CLOB relevant patches as well.
    Same goes for your operating system. Solaris 9 is ancient: So move to 10 which has vastly improved memory management.
    To help you further it would be really valuable to know the table layout. For example is this a heap table or an IOT? Is it partitioned? Is this RAC? What size are the CLOBs? Are they stored in-line? Chunk size? etc.
    This page should start you down the right road:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14249/adlob_tables.htm#sthref204
    But I am also wondering why you would use a trigger to, as you say, "insert the same record into another table." This description is a poster child for "bad design."

  • 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

  • Is my external monitor's full resolution supported?

    My new 13" Macbook Pro came with the Nvidia 9400M graphics card installed.
    I also purchased a 26" external graphics monitor with 1920 x 1200 screen resolution, plugged in through the Mac's mini-DVI port.
    My intended use is photographic processing (non-video).
    I get a monitor message under "Display Preferences", "Usable resolution 1280 x 800" when this external unit is selected.
    Can this card support the full resolution of this large external monitor?
    Thanks for any feedback.
    Don Bethel

    Yes, it certainly can. But your MBP doesn't have a mini-DVI port; it has a mini-DisplayPort. Exactly how are you connecting that to the external monitor?
    If your external monitor is limited to 1280 x 800, that's a clear indication that you are in Display Mirroring mode instead of Extended Desktop mode. The latter will enable your external display to operate at its native resolution.

  • 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.

  • NIC install problem under Solaris 10

    I have an old 3Com NIC card (ISA) under Solaris 10. 3C509B Etherlink III card and prtconf -pv command shows correct PNP80f7 device id, all correct
    resources, IRQ, I/O address .... But fail to work. Is it sun does not support elx driver or something I misconfigured?
    My installation as follows:
    elx "PNP80F7" entry to /etc/driver_aliases
    PNP80F7|TCM5094.... elx net isa elx.bef "3Com"
    entry to /boot/solaris/devicedb/master
    #devlinks
    #touch reconfigure ; reboot

    I use these cards for my x86 installations as well. The one thing that I've had to do is force the speed and duplex using the 3Com driver diskettes before installing the operating system. For whatever reason, Solaris 10 finds the card but will not initialize it properly whenever I the card is programmed to auto-negotiate. Forcing the card to half-duplex on the card itself works almost all of the time for me.
    Get the driver diskettes from 3Com's site, boot from a bootable floppy, run 3c9x5cfg (if I recall correctly), and change the duplex and speed to whatever is appropriate. I've had the best luck with half-duplex. (If you need a boot diskette, you can get them from http://www.bootdisk.com.)
