Hibernation in Solaris 10

Is there any hibernation facility which allows the machine to shutdown by saving the contents on the RAM on hard disk and allows user to resume the work from the point he left at (equivalent to Windows) in Solaris 10?

You can hunt around for frkit which is what we used to have to install for OpenSolaris to get that functionality. It works fine for later builds of OpenSolaris up to and including Solaris 11 release. After that you may or may not have issues.

  • Solaris 8 hibernation issue

    We have a Sun server with Solaris 8 installed. Once in a while, the server goes into its hibernation mode and does not accept any incomming request (i.e. ping, telnet,...). Our IT person had disabled and removed all power saving related services on the server and it still happens.
    Does anyone know a fix or a work around to this problem?

    Forgot to include the error messages from Ingres when the problem arises:
    $ ckpdb xthreshdb
    Mon Sep 17 15:53:01 2007 E_DM00AB_CANT_MAP_SHARED_MEM Could not map the server's shared memory. Please check errlog.log for more details.
    Mon Sep 17 15:53:01 2007 E_DM1051_JSP_NO_INSTALL The installation is not currently running. Run INGSTART then try again.
    Mon Sep 17 15:53:01 2007 E_DM1001_JSP_INIT An error occurred initializing the journal support program. Make sure program is installed and/or you are running with proper privilege.
    This appears to be down to the user being unable see/use the services started as the Ingres user

  • Is not supporting  Solaris 11 on V series sensible?

    Solaris 11 only to be supported on M and T series. (This may have been announced long ago .. perhaps I was hibernating).
    Referring to {message:id=9892188} and http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris11/downloads/index-454418.html accessed at time of post.
    Some V series kit has been on sales relatively recently, and it is of concern to note it will not be supported on Solaris 11.
    The disadvantage of supporting some of that kit on solaris 11 might be additional code ... or perhaps it would be technically not feasible or sensible.
    However not being able to use solaris 11 for proof of concept on 'V' series might cause some to look elsewhere.
    It may also be an obsolence concern for some 'M' series customers .... wil they be dumped at some point soon.
    okay I know there is perhaps the option of using x86.
    And perhaps at least T1000/T2000 are supported.
    And perhaps by the timescale solaris 11 gains market impact there will be no 'V' series left ...
    RIPV :(

    Whilst the decision to drop sun4u support (with the exception of M-Series) from the Solaris 11 Release may disappoint some people, the decision to do so has been approved by the relevant management, business, and technical teams. The technical reason relates to PSARC/2011/062. Sun4u machines prior to the M-series require Solaris to handle Virtual Address Cache (VAC) aliasing. The VAC support is being eliminated in preparation for the introduction of Virtual Memory 2.0 (VM2) functionality which has been pending deployment for quite some time now. Supporting the sun4u with VM2 requires a huge effort of both design and implementation.
    As abrante mentioned, most of the systems covered by the change either have, or are about to, drop off End Of Support Life (EOSL). See http://www.oracle.com/us/support/library/lifetime-support-hardware-301321.pdf for more information about EOL & EOSL dates & those systems which are covered by a Lifetime Support Policy. Solaris and most of the Legacy-Sun software products are also covered under the Lifetime Support Policy. See http://www.oracle.com/us/support/library/lifetime-support-hardware-301321.pdf. So it's not all bad news. Between the HW & SW support policies and that fact that S10 is still being developed with future updates planned, there's years left in the sun4u estates yet.

  • Hibernation in MBP2014

    Hello!
    I have MBP2014 with two OS: Mac OS and Win7 via BootCamp. Usually I work in MacOs, but sometimes I need to make some things in Window, and I want to hibernate MacOS (not close opened programs), reboot and boot up to Win. I read man about pmset and set up hibernation mode to 25 (pmset -a hibernation 25), but when I close lid or select sleep via main menu - notebook goes to ordinary sleep.
    Also I try 2 utilities: Smartsleep and Hibernate. There are not working properly: both utilities put notebook only to "hot" sleep.
    How can I make force hibernate this laptop for my task?
    P.S. I don't check, what happened, when my battery emptied in sleep - I use it every day near sockets))

    If you wish to be able to readily switch between Windows and OS X, then get rid of Boot Camp and using a virtual machine such as Parallels for Mac, VM Fusion, or Virtual Box.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows 7 or Windows 8.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. A more recent comparison of Parallels, VM Fusion, and Virtual Box is found at Virtualization Benchmarks- Parallels 10 vs. Fusion 7 vs. VirtualBox. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard and later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • Logical interface in solaris 10

    Hi there,
    I need to configure logical interface in a solaris 10 3/05 server. After reading the Solaris 10 IP services manual, I am not quite sure what to do. All the examples and explanation are about using the new subcommand addif of ifconfig. It was not clear in the documentation if the setting logical interfaces via addif will persist across boot.
    Can one still configure logical interface in Solaris 10 in a more traditional way like in Solaris 8? In an Solaris 8 server I will do the following.
    Let's assume I want to configure in a solaris 8 server a logical interface named hme0:1 with IP address 192.168.20.28 with netmask 255.255.255.0 for hostname host001
    # cat /etc/hostname.hme0:1
    host001
    ^D
    # echo "192.168.20.28 host001" >> /etc/inet/hosts
    # echo "192.168.20.0 255.255.255.0" >> /etc/inet/netmasks
    # reboot -- -r
    Can one still do that in solaris 10 3/05 server?

    # reboot -- -r
    Can one still do that in solaris 10 3/05 server?Absolutely.
    You don't need to reboot (you can run ifconfig for this boot and let the files do the work next time) and the -r doesn't do anything with interfaces (expecially virtual interfaces) anyway.

  • Installation problem on Solaris

    I am trying to install sun one 7.0 on Solaris 8. The install is failing with this error:
    ERROR - library load failed with following error: Can't load library: /opt/SUNWappserver7/lib/libinstallCore.so
    INFO - End core server uninstallation
    anyone know what causes this??
    cheers

    Looks like Solaris package installation failed and installer reverted to uninstallation sequence. For low level pkgadd log please check /var/sadm/install/logs/Sun_ONE_Application_Server_install.B<timestamp> file (timestamp is date and time of your installation attempt in mmddHHMM format).
    Look for any errors in this file. Most likely thing that could have happened is that the installation of Java Help (SUNWjhrt) package failed because you didn't have existing package based J2SE installation on the system. If that's the case, workaround is to either preinstall package based J2SE installation or to selected option to install bundled J2SE that comes with application server.

  • Installation problem on Solaris 10

    Dear All,
    We are trying to install j2sdk 1.4.2_13 on solaris server zone. I have downloaded j2sdk-1_4_2_13-nb-5_0-solsparc-ml.bin
    But when I try to execute this:
    #./j2sdk-1_4_2_13-nb-5_0-solsparc-ml.bin
    It gives me error: The installer is unable to run in graphical mode. Try running the installer with the -console or -silent flag
    Tried with -console:
    The wizard cannot continue because of the following error: Invalid command line option: console is not supported (10

    Then tried with -silent:
    This time command just completed w/o any output at all.
    Please suggest what can I do?
    regards, Sean.

    Dear Siddhesh,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I tried using X Manager GUI for my Solaris. But when I double click the j2sdk-1_4_2_13-nb-5_0-solsparc-ml.bin file to run it, it simply denies saying:
    The filename "j2sdk-1_4_2_13-nb-5_0-solsparc-ml.bin" indicates that this file is of type "Unknown type". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "Shell script". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system.
    Do not open the file unless you created the file yourself, or received the file from a trusted source. To open the file, rename the file to the correct extension for "Shell script", then open the file normally. Alternatively, use the Open With menu to choose a specific application for the file.
    Also /tmp has full authorizations:
    drwxrwxrwt   7 root     sys          557 Jun 24 08:34 tmp
    I dont have Hummingbird for X11 forwarding with this client. Do I have any other option??
    regards, Sean.

  • New to Solaris, Some Samba and NTFS issues.

    There are a lot of errors in this stack, and i'm not pretty sure which error is the main cause of this issue, but I think it's the "ORA-15081: failed to submit an I/O operation to a disk" that is the bad guy here. I did some researches and found that some possible sollutions:
    1) One said that this error might be caused by bad permissions on the raw devices used in the "MYDG" diskgroup (i'm using 6 devices with external redundancy), but my devices are all with the grid:asmadmin and 660 permissions
    2) Another said that this might be a problem with the owner:group of the oracle binaries. In ny installation the oracle binaries ($ORACLE_HOME/bin) are with the oracle:oinstall. I thougth of addind the asmadmin group to the oracle user, but i'm not sure what are the implications of this change. What do you thing?
    What am I doing wrong and how can i solve it?
    Thanks in advance for your pacience and attention.

  • How to create HP LaserJet 2420 printer queue on Solaris 10

    Hi Solaris Gurus,
    I am having difficulty creating a printer queue for HP LaserJet 2420 on Solaris 10 (11/9) Sparc (Sun Fire T5220) server. A popular method used is with hppi (HP Jet Direct) tool but it does not have the exact printer driver and alternative printer drivers (e.g. HP LaserJet 4 / 4M, HP LaserJet 2000 series) resulted in only part of the text occupying the wrong side of an A5 page.
    An alternative approach that has worked in the past for simple default paper tray 2 (single paper tray), with tray 1 reserved for manual feed. This method involves creating a working printer queue on a Windows workstation (XP) / server (2000) with the correct driver and having configured to support Unix printing to receive LPR request from Unix systems in general. A remote printer queue would then be defined on Solaris 10 system which points to the Windows system. However, the printing jobs kept going to tray 1 (top manual feed) even though the Windows printer queue was configured to go to tray 3 (bottom tray).
    The earlier method would be simplest but needs the right driver (PDD) but I don’t know where to find it. The latter approach is also not working despite having got the right driver on Windows. A test page on the target Windows printer queue would print to tray 3 (bottom tray) of the printer correctly.
    Printmgr does not work well with HP printers from experience. It is good for serial and local printers.
    Your advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Crystal

    Hi Giogio, and welcome to the HP Forums.
    I am sorry to be the bearer of this news, but do the age of the printer, it is not supported by Mac OS X 10.9. I am including a list below of the supported printers from Apple:
    OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download.
    For more information, I would recommend contacting the Apple Support Communities.
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

  • PMTU discovery in IPv6 based on IPV6_RECVPATHMTU in Solaris 10

    Our application works with raw sockets and needs to discover PMTU of IPv6 paths.
    According to the RFC-3542 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3542, section 11) the socket option IPV6_RECVPATHMTU allows applications to know about the change of path MTU by receipt of new ancillary data item (IPV6_PATHMTU) which is delivered to recvmsg() without any actual data. Following construction should be used to enable this option:
        int  on = 1;
        setsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_IPV6, IPV6_RECVPATHMTU, &on, sizeof(on));In the online Sun documentation I found that this socket option is supported since Solaris 10 (http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-5177/ip6-7p).
    However, in our test this socket option appears to be not working. After decrease of the PMTU via ifconfig and sending a big enough packet an ICMP (Packet Too Big) is received but there is no event with ancillary data item on the socket.
    One peculiarity that may be essential is that our application binds to a specific port in a raw socket (i.e. to IP address : port pair).
    Does anyone have information if the IPV6_RECVPATHMTU socket option is really supported in Solaris 10?
    Probably, ICMP should be off to be able to receive this event with ancillary data on the socket?
    Will appreciate any ideas how to make it working.
    Thanks in advance,
    Mike.

    Hi,
    I have a Sunfire V100 - and have the exact same problem. The settings are correct; I have configure dual-NIC cards many times in the past - but this issue is simply eluding me. I can swap in a Linux machine in router / ip forwarding mode and there are no problems, but when I put back in the Sunfire I encounter the same issues you have.
    In effect, packets from the LAN arrive at the NIC on the Solaris machine, but then don't get forwarded to the other NIC's gateway. I'm at a loss, but I have seen this problem pop-up (without answer) a half-dozen times in this forum alone, and multiple times on different support sites. Did you (or anyone) ever come across a solution for this? Is this not some easily overlooked yet possibly cryptic flag or variable that I've missed? Anyone?

  • Solaris: OC4J: 9.0.2.0.0 or 9.0.3.0.0

    I'm a bit puzzled as to versioning of oc4j running applications created with Jdeveloper RC2 / BI Beans RC2 .
    I downloaded a file called oc4j_extended.zip (of 25. March).
    I would have thought this to be the latest distro of oc4j.
    When I invoke the oc4j.jar, I receive a message like this:
    "Oracle9iAS (9.0.2.0.0) Containers for J2EE initialized"
    I see other people are running version 9.0.3.0.0, and most Jdeveloper references are for this version as well.
    Is there a later version (for Solaris) that I need to download/install?
    If so, where can it be found?
    Or am I fine running with the one I have?
    (Reason for asking is that I am running into problems that could possibly be related to versioning.)

    Thanks for quick response, I am located in Norway, 6 hours in front of the US, so days can easily be "wasted" waiting for you guys. Maybe we'll manage to squeeze in 2 answers today ;-)
    Here are the answers to your question:
    myhost% java -version -jar oc4j.jar
    java version "1.3.1_01"
    Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_01)
    Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_01, mixed mode)
    myhost% java -jar oc4j.jar -version
    Oracle9iAS (9.0.2.0.0) Containers for J2EE
    myhost% java -jar ./oc4j.jar -version
    Oracle9iAS (9.0.2.0.0) Containers for J2EE
    This is a bit complicated, but here's a quick resume of what I did:
    * Install Oracle 9.0.1.0.0, including the http-server.
    * Patch to 9.0.1.2.0
    * download oc4j_extended, unzip to a new $ORACLE_HOME/oc4j
    * Source the following file:
    myhost% more java131.sh
    setenv PATH /usr/j2se/bin:/u01/app/oracle/product/901/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/cc
    /bin:/etc:/opt/bin:/usr/ucb:.:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/openwin/lib
    setenv CLASS_PATH /usr/j2se/lib:/u01/app/oracle/jre/1.1.8/lib:/u01/app/oracle/p
    oduct/901/jlib:/u01/app/oracle/product/901/wmt/jlib
    setenv CLASSPATH /usr/j2se/lib:/u01/app/oracle/jre/1.1.8/lib:/u01/app/oracle/pr
    duct/901/jlib:/u01/app/oracle/product/901/wmt/jlib
    alias java="/usr/j2se/bin/java"
    myhost%
    * Check that the right java verson is running:
    myhost% which java
    /usr/j2se/bin/java
    myhost%
    * start the oc4j server with :
    java -Xmx256m -Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBClass=com.inprise.vbroker.orb.ORB -Dorg.omg.COR
    BA.ORBSingletonClass=com.inprise.vbroker.orb.ORB -jar oc4j.jar
    And it reports back v. 9.0.2.0.0
    So what am I doing wrong?
    Any input will be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Check if the listener process has started or not.
    Sometimes you will have to manually start the listener process.
    Go to Oracle Home. Run lsnrctl from bin.
    Now you may be able to connect.
    Good Luck,
