What you need is just an IP address on your network interface and configure dns in /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/resolv.conf.

How to configure the network on Sun Solaris 8

The Sun workstation is a license server, and Window NT workstation need to access the license file that located in the sun workstation.
Now the Window NT workstation cannot connect with the sun solaris, and I guess that I need to configure the network on Sun Solaris 8.
Could you please tell me how to do that step by step?
If there is the system tool like the window system to configure the network easily and quickly.
I appreciate it.
Mark

If your sun system is working then probably it has network configured already .You can check it by the following command on the sun.
ifconfig -a
Generally applications asks where license server is located and you need to give the ip-address or host name only . Application docs will give more detail about it.
You can get ip-address from ifconfig comand above.

How to configure a Graphic Terminal at Solaris 9

Hello everyone!
I�m having difficulties while finding a compatible Solaris 9 driver for my video card.
I have installed Solaris 9 in my PC, but I can only work with the text terminal, what is not interesting because I need to export a remote window from a server to my local machine.
I�m using Diamond Multimedia Viper II Z200 as my video controler.
Any help is useful.
Thank you all for the attention.

From the command console run:
/usr/sbin/kdmconfig
Configure the hardware device by selecting the closest match. Please pay attention to the other configurable items as well. Make certain you get the mouse, monitor size and display resolution correct in the process or you may end up locked onto a blank screen.
I don't recall seeing that type of (Diamond?) Video Card in the device options of kdmconfig but I have never looked for it. Perhaps you might want to slip a common ATI or Nvidia card into your AGP slot if you can't find a device driver for yours.
best...

How to configure network printer on solaris 10 intel based

how to configure the network printer in solaris 10
like hp laserjet printer/printers,

Very very easy.
Go to the print manager . (printmgr I believe or in the launch menu under preferences)
select add a network printer
Fill out the info. I find that the hpijs printer driver works better then the suggested foomatic on my hp 4000s. I could not print pdfs otherwise.
Other things to know is the protocol should be BSD (at least it works for me). And add the port to the destination so 192.168.0.1:9600 for example (for hp).
thats about it. To have it show up correctly in JDS you should probably add it to the printer list under the launch->preferences->printer preferences.

How to configure keyboard layout?

Hello all,.
I'm using solaris 10 06/06 and my video card is intel 915G. This card has problems with solaris Xorg, so i'm using Xsun. But i don't know where is the configuration file to it. I need to configure a brazilian keyboard (pt_BR).
Anybody can help me?
Thanks.

Sorry, i have forgot to mention that i have configured Generic portuguese in kdmconfig. I don't know how to configure brazilian abnt2 layout (default here in Brazil). There is no option in kdmconfig for that.
Thanks.

How to configure Solaris 10 IPMP for Oracle VDI 3.3.2

Hi,
Does anyone have an indication on how to configure Solaris 10 IPMP in a manner that supports Oracle VDI?
We have setup two servers with 2 test addresses on physical and 1 logical for the hostname of the box, but when we configure VDI the VDI database does not come up on the 2nd box. We have also tried configuring IPMP without test addresses, but it doesn't make any difference - the DB still doesn't go into the up state after configuration on the 2nd server.
Solaris 10 u9 with patches
Two physical NICs on management VLAN via 2 switches
Two physical NIcs on VDI VLAN via 2 switches
VDI 3.3.2
All hostnames are in DNS and resolve for short name, FQDN and also reverse IP lookup
The is a proposal pdf on Oracle website that mentions IPMP, so someone has done it. Just could do with a hint on how it was done so that it works.
( http://www.oracle.com/us/technologies/virtualization/vdi-design-proposal-1401195.pdf )
Thanks
Paul

OK, updating this with what was causing the issue.
Not an IPMP problem this was a DNS problem. The VDI servers have access to two DNS environments, so had a DNS search path that had the domain where the VMs where going to go and another for management of the box with two DNS servers listed in /etc/resolv.conf.
We configured VDI using the FQDN for the management DNS, however the vda-config script takes the hostname of the box adds the first DNS domain from /etc/resolv.conf search entry and configures using (it seams to ignore what you put into the vda-config). When the config script comes to configuring MySQL because the names didn't match (FQDN it created by adding hostname to the 1st entry in DNS search path & FQDN that you put into vda-config command), it decides that it is configuring a "Client MySQL" instance rather than a "Slave MySQL" instance, which means the VDA DB never comes up in the out of vda-center status.
So the fix is to:
1) configure IPMP without test addresses (so traffic comes out of the correct IP and can be reverse looked up in DNS by the other host)
2) if you have multiple DNS search entries, configure VDI using the first entry in your search path as its FQDN

Reg: How to Configure internet for solaris 10 in x86 32 bit

Hi,
I am new to Sun Solaris can any one help me detailed step of how to configure internet for standalone pc. Thanks in Advance
Thanx
MA

OK, the classical way:
Open a terminal.
Type
ifconfig -a
ifconfig -a plumb
ifconfig -a
Note the differences, it will plumb ALL available interfaces this way. So, now you can see, which device is your network card.
Then perform a
ifconfig <interface> unplumb
for all the newly interfaces (aka those, that were new in the last ifconfig -a output).
Then, the simple way:
cd /etc
vi hostname.<interface-driver-name>0 (example: hostname.rge0, the driver would be rge, the instance is 0, and rge0 would have been displayed as an available interface in the last ifconfig command). Add the name of the host into this file.
Then
vi /etc/inet/hosts
and add the pair of IP-address and hostname.
If needed:
vi /etc/inet/netmasks
if you have a sub-divided network, and you need a differenbt subnet mask...
Then:
vi /etc/defaultrouter
and add the name or ip-adress of the gateway... (name only, if you have that name also in the /etc/inet/hosts file!)
Also:
vi /etc/nodename
and add the name of your host into that file, so that the system knows, who it is... ;-)
And: For the DNS you can then add the infos into:
/etc/resolv.conf
For example:
nameserver 192.168.2.1
or some such...
Then, as the last but one step:
ls /etc/nsswitch.*
and:
cd /etc
cp nsswitch.<what you need> nsswitch.conf (should be .files here!)
And the reboot... ;-)
HTH!
Matthias
P.S.: There might be some GUI, but I'm an old-timer, so I prefer the command-line version of things...

[HELP] rc.conf configuration - English System, with French keyboard

Hi
I just finished the first part of the Arch installation.
I'm a french user, and I want to do something different than the last installation
I would use my system (TTY, Desktop environment in ENGLISH) but I want use my french keyboard (Azerty).
Also, I have some files (music, movie) who contains special caracters like "é,ç,è" and I would be able to play theses files using VLC, Sonata...
I've looked the wiki, and i'm curently configuring my rc.conf but I don't know what put in.
LOCALE="en_US.utf8"
HARDWARECLOCK="localtime"
USEDIRECTISA="no"
TIMEZONE="US/Eastern"
KEYMAP="us"
CONSOLEFONT=
CONSOLEMAP=
USECOLOR="yes"
Can you help me ? Gives me the right thing to add my rc.conf please ?
Does the lines CONSOLEFONT, LOCALE, & CONSOLEMAP depend on my keyboard configuration ?
Also need help to configure the locale.gen file
Sorry for my english, I don't speak english well :S

I use the same setup, and I found the archlinux.fr wiki to be really helpful.
I have those set in rc. conf :
KEYMAP="fr-latin9"
CONSOLEFONT="lat9w-16"
Then just read through those two pages, they contain everything you need. Just skip the parts about setting the french locale and such.

How to configure ASM of 11gR2 RAC on Solaris 10

Hi all,
I have the first time to install the RAC on Solaris 10. I have stuck on the ASM disk group step in the Grid Infrastructure.
Our Configuration
2 Sun Server in Solaris 10 with same configure (which we are not using shared drive)
250GB Local Hard Disk
1100 GB Raw Disk (which at SAN)
3GB x 3 Raw Disk (which at SAN) for voting disk
When I install Grid Infrastructure, I select first option: Install and Confgure Grid in Cluster (I can't remember the exact name) and also select the Typical Installation. The previous steps are successful before the ASM Disk Group. At ASM Disk Group, no disk are display for selection.
So, how to fix the missing disk in this ASM Disk Group creation?
Please help!

I would break the 1100G into 11@100G devices and use EXTERNAL redundancy (RAID on the SAN side). You will get much better performance. (Configured/managed a 250TB 3node cluster on Sun 6900s however my LUNs were 1.5TB in size)

Sunny YipAgain using a single 1.1TB device will not get you better performance and should you need to add additional devices, they too will need to be 1.1TB. Sometimes smaller is better.
Make sure you use a partition that starts at cylinder 1 or 2
Make sure you set the correct permissions (660) and ownership (gridowner:oinstall) on those devices and make sure the oracle user is a member of that group.
