Ldmp2v : Solaris 8 (v440 ) to Solaris 10 ldom v3 ( T4-2 )

Hi ,
Is it possible to do migration from solaris 8 which is on h/w V440 to Solaris 10 Oracle VM - V3 ? If yes , Can I follow the procedure provided @ link -
Oracle VM Server for SPARC Physical-to-Virtual Conversion Tool - Oracle VM Server for SPARC 2.1 Administration Guide
Does ldmp2v convert upgrade to Solaris 10 directly from Solaris 8 O/S ?
Regards,
Satish Singh

Yes, this is possible.
Make sure the conditions on hardware type and prerequisites are met according to Installing the Oracle VM Server for SPARC P2V Tool - Oracle VM Server for SPARC 2.1 Administration Guide.
Analyze whether the current running application has any dependency on current OS version.
Check whether application downtime is acceptable in your environment. This is must for ldmp2v collection phase.

Issue with installation of Solaris 10 UFS in Ldoms

Hi Guys, I'm trying to install Solaris 10 with UFS but not able to make more than one partition. My vdisk is a slice of physical server hard disk.
When I try to modify the table partition of vdisk, it fails.
I cheeked in documentation and saw that vdisk can only be use for one whole s0 partition. How can I create swap and other partition?
Someone have try to install Solaris 10 UFS in Ldoms with success??

Thank a lot Pascal,
I Also use file container and it work fine!!

Zone MIgration from V440 with Solaris 10 (118833-20) to M4000

Has anyone successfully migrated zones from V440 running Solaris 10 (118833-20) onto M4000 running Solaris 10 08/07?
Thanks!

If you make sure the M4000 is running Solaris 10 10/08 then the zone should be upgraded the moment you attach the zone on the M4000.

Upgrade from Solaris 8 to Solaris 9... it sort of worked

I upgraded a V440 from solaris 8 to solaris 9 last night and it sort of worked. I tried installing off of disk1 instead of the install disk and it wouldn't mount the cd. So I just installed off of the install disk. All seemed to go well but after the reboot it was clear that things didn't go as planned. Basically what happened was the upgrade took the old file systems and placed them under a new /a directory and did a clean install on new file systems. None of my system configuration came over, nor my users, nor my applications... everything was just moved to /a.
Any ideas what happened here? Also, can I reboot using the old (Solaris 8) file systems and then try another upgrade?
Thanks,
bart

How do I install dual-boot Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 on one hard disk ?

I tried to install Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 on same disk using CDs, but
the second installation overwrote the first Solaris which was installed
previoudly on the half-disk size partition of same disk.
How do I install two Solarises on one hard disk ?
Thanks
Yakov

There are no tricks to get Solaris to dual boot on the same drive. Just allocate and pick the free slices not used by the first Solaris install when you put in the second install. Technically speaking there is nothing preventing you from running seven separately bootable Solaris instances on the same drive (one of 8 available slices is overlap -- slice 2) provided you use a swap file on a root partition instead of reserving a whole slice for swap.

Solaris 8 to Solaris 10 upgrade for oracle 11i

Hi
Need to upgrade my 11i (11.5.9) apps from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10
It will also be a 32 bit to 64 bit conversion
Has anyone done this before. or can specify the any major obstacles.
Thanks

Dear Bansi
I did something similar on HP-UX but you can mainly follow this
1- Check Certification matrix against Solaris 10
2- Install 64 bit engine of 9iR2 using 9iR2 CD's without creation of a database
3- Patch the engine with the same patch level your database on it [9.2.0.3 is standard DB level for 11.5.9 CD's ] If you want to update this level than the existing to be latest [ie 9.2.0.6 check notes and certification matrix] you should do this step after next step
4- Attach your 11.5.9 database to that engine
5- Copy configurations files from old engine to the new engine [appsutil]
6- Copy Applications in similar locations [If migrate to another server using Solaris 10]
7- If you will change any Application paths or database path consider changing context file and rerun autoconfig

Compiler directives to differetiate between solaris 9 and solaris 10

i have an API which makes certain function calls which are different for solaris 9 and solaris 10. i cannot add my own defines, since that would mean that applications too would have to define them.
does the Sun Workshop compiler provide any default directives to differentiate between solaris 9 and solaris 10? something like #ifdef __SunOS_5.10 or something like that?
thanks.

As explained in the C Users Guide, the compiler predefines several macros, one of which is represents the Solaris version number.
The macro name is derived from the output of the commands
uname -s and uname -r, starting with __, connected by _, and with dots replaced by _.
Running on Solaris 9:
% uname -s
SunOS
% uname -r
5.9
The defined macro name is __SunOS_5_9
On Solaris 10 you get __SunOS_5_10
__SunOS_5_9

SSH Differences between Solaris 9 and Solaris 10

I use public key authentication when connecting via SSH but have noticed a difference between Solaris 9 and Solaris 10 and wondered if it's an environment setup issue. I keep my keys in $HOME/.ssh
When connecting from Solaris 9 I can provide an identity file without a path regardless of the directory that I'm in e.g.
ssh -i my_identity_file user@hostnameThe above works even if I'm not in the $HOME/.ssh directory. But when using the same from Solaris 10 I get the following error:
Warning: Identity file my_identity_file does not exist.If I run the command from $HOME/.ssh on Solaris 10 it connects fine, and if I pass in the path like so it works fine:
ssh -i $HOME/.ssh/my_identity_file user@hostnameIs there a setting specific to SSH somewhere as I can't see anything in my environment that's different between the two systems. There's certainly no entry in $PATH that points to $HOME/.ssh. How could I get SSH to work on Solaris 10 by just providing the identity file name and not the full path
Regards
Rich

It's not explicitly defined in /etc/ssh/ssh_config, so I'm assuming it would be using the default which is ~/.ssh/id_dsa.
But surely that's irrelevant if I'm using the -i switch to provide the identity file?
Remember the problem here is that I have to provide a full path to the identity file, whereas before just the filename would do.

Upgrading Solaris 8 to Solaris 10 on SUN Sparc E2900 server

Hi,
We have a Sparc E2900 server which has Solaris 8 & Veritas Volume Manager 4.0. UFS & VXFS filesystems are under Veritas control.
We are planning to upgrade Solaris 8 to Solaris 10.
My questions are as follows
1) Can we upgrade from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10 directly ?
2) If Yes does Solaris 10 support Veritas Filesystem ?
3) Which is the best site to get information regarding upgradation ?
Regards,
Tejas J Raval

2) If Yes does Solaris 10 support Veritas Filesystem ?No, it dows not. If you want to use VxFS you still need to have Veritas products installed on this server

Upgrade to Solaris 10 from Solaris 8

My client has upgraded from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10. In the process the
partition /lu (live update) was created at about 8GB. The root partition is currently at 94% and removal of /lu has not recovered this space. Please
advise best practice to resolve this problem.
regards,
OraclWzd.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I did not make it clear. The /lu (live update) directory needs to be removed in its entirety. It sits under the root partition and is the result of the upgrade from Solaris 8 to 10. We backed-up the directory to tape (over 8GBs) and removed all the files and sub-directories under /lu. The utilization under the root partition remains at 94%. Why would the over 8GBs removed not be returned the available space under the root partition?
thanks,
OraclWzd

Upgrade solaris 8 to solaris 10 with DiskSuite

Hello
After years of not using Solaris I find I have to upgrade a Sun V240 from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10. My concern is that the disks are managed by DiskSuite. Do I have to back DiskSuite out before I do the upgrade and upgrade just on the underlying disks? Or is Solaris clever enough to not have to do this now?
I have looked around but would just like a definative answer from someone on here.
Many Thanks
Darren.

Hi,
You can use a IEAK 10 to deploy the installation of IE 10, build your own package, you can add any additional installations or updates you may want to tack onto your Internet Explorer 10 instal.
This is the download link

Upgrading Solaris 9 to Solaris 10

Hi, I need to upgrade my workstation from solaris 9 to solaris 10 by CD. And also upgrade solaris 8 to solaris 9.
Do u have any idea how to do it? Can giv step by step?
Thanks
regards,
raymond

You do not need to use liveupgrade to upgrade, unless you want to learn it--it's complicated. It's good for servers and if you wish to go back to pre-upgrade. You need plenty of spare disk space.
First backup your data on your system to another hard disk or DVD.
Then stick in the installation DVD and select "Upgrade" instead of "Initial Install" when asked.

Sun Java Application Server 8.1 Upgrade Solaris 9 to Solaris 10

I have Sun Java Application Server 8.1 (version 8.1_02 (build b06-fcs) ) and HA which are currently installed on Solaris 9 box (Sparc).
Now, I plan to upgrade Solaris 9 to Solaris 10. What should I need to do before and after migration?
Thanks.

Before I start, disclaimer -- I have no knowledge of Hibernate and the following comments are based on the stack trace you have included.
I think your permissions might be set all right but you might have an error in the hibernate query. It looks like hibernate uses antlr to parse the queries. While parsing the query, antlr is encountering an exceptional condition and is trying to exit the VM (by calling System.exit()). Obviously, the hibernate code does not have that permission and therefore the exception is logged.
My guess is if you fix the query such that hibernate/antlr can parse it, you will not run into this error.
Hope this helps,
