Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (x86) VM hangs

Hello,
I have downloaded Oracle VM Template for Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 (x86) from Oracle Software Delivery Cloud
and created a VM out of it. When I start it the blue Oracle Solaris screen is displayed in the console and the VM hangs.
OVS version: 3.2.6
Hardware: Sun Server X3-2 (Formerly Sun Fire X4170 M3)
VM config:
Memory:4GB
CPU:4
Disk:40GB

Yes, but it did not help.
I did finally manage to boot Solaris 10 1/13 by changing "xvda" to "hda"
in the vm.cfg. That said, there's still a problem: the OS takes over 20 minutes
to boot.

Solaris 10 u9 x86 Cannot update or register system.

I'm having and issue where I can not get updates/patches via smpatch or updatemanager on my workstation.
I've recently upgraded (not replaced) the system to Solaris 10 u9.
I've tried to re-register the system however, it keeps prompting for a proxy to access the internet. There is no proxy needed.
I've read other posts and found the suc.sh tool which I've run - see below.
If anyone has any suggestions besides re-building the workstation please let me know.
Thanks!
I'm getting these errors in /var/adm/messages:

ORACLE SOLARIS 11 EXPERTS
How can i do for using the slices from s10 to s15 on a Solaris 11 x86 system ?
I have the information that i can do this using the "fmthard" command...
Where i can find a tutorial or a technnical article or web site where list a complete explanation
abot this topic.
¡¡¡VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR TO THE OTN COMMUNITY!!!

Thanks for the answer...
¡¡¡I SOLVED!!!
I have to do is a "custom file" for example "full_slices.vtoc" with the following format
using the command:
#prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c4t1d0p0 > full_slices.vtoc
* /dev/rdsk/c4t1d0p0 partition map
* Dimensions:
* 512 bytes/sector
* 63 sectors/track
* 255 tracks/cylinder
* 16065 sectors/cylinder

Hi,
we are currently using SunStudio 12. I have noticed that early access product, SunStudio Express, Feb2008. It seems that new features coming from NetBeans 6.0 have contributed to SunStudio IDE. I prefer to use SunStudio Express IDE. But i have also noticed that sun CC compiler version is also different. Actually it is no surprise, since SunStudio is a complete product composed of compilers, tools and IDE.Now, i am quite doubtful whether we should use SunStudioExpress. That's why i want to learn when official new release for SunStudio will be announced.
Though i have searched internet, i couldn't notice any news about the next official release of Sun Studio( Sun Studio 13 ). When will this early release( SunStudio Express, Feb 2008 ) be released as SunStudio13? What is the release roadmap of SunStudio?

Enterprise Manager grid on Solaris 10 for x86 server

Hi,
We are using Oracle 10g R2 on Solaris 10 on x86 servers.
I was going through the documentation library. I could find the EM Grid documentation for all platforms like Linux, SPARC, HP-UX, AIX etc.
However, I could not find anything for Solaris on x86 machines.
Is there any documentation specific to the x86 architecure or should I simply go through the SPARC documentation and take all the learnings from there?
Please let me know.
Thank you
KV

Are you referring to the agent install or Grid (OMS) part. I don't see EM/Grid binaries for Solaris x86..that should explain why you couldn't find documentation for Solaris x86.

EM12c: Oracle Solaris Sparc Agent unabailable

Hi everyone!
I have this problem. I deployed EM12C on a server (Solaris x86) and I managed to deploy the agent donwloading it with EM12c into a Solaris Sparc.
I was able to view metrics and manage the databases on Solaris Sparc server.
Our client refused to use the Solaris x86, and now we have installed EM12C over a Windows Server. We want to reach the old Solaris Sparc Agent but we are unabailable. I have network connectivity from the W2k to the Sparc and I reach the port. The agent is started but I cant discover it again.

Difference between Oracle VM on Linux x86 and Oracle VM Server for x86 on Linux x86

Hi,
Under the certifications tab for EBS 11.5.10.2, there are two fields for Virtualization software
1. Oracle VM
2. Oracle VM Server for x86
Oracle VM shows version 2.2.0.0.0 and Oracle VM Server for x86 shows version 3.2.6.0.0. Could you please let me know the difference between the two?
Thanks
Sarika

Hi,
Oracle VM shows version 2.2.0.0.0 and Oracle VM Server for x86 shows version 3.2.6.0.0. Could you please let me know the difference between the two?
Oracle VM 2.2 is for Oracle Solaris Sparc platform (Earlier know as Sun Logical Domains) - Only Solaris sparc Installation are supported on VM's
2.2 Installing Oracle VM Server on SPARC Hardware
Oracle Vm 3.2 is for X86 platform - using this VM you can Install and create Windows/Linux/Solaris-X86 and other certified OS.

Solaris 11.2 x86 installation problem on GPT partitioned SSD

I recently bought a new computer with Windows 8.1 pre-installed on it. I want to install Solaris 11.2 as dual-boot together with the pre-installed windows 8.1.
The computer has a 128 GB SSD which is GPT partitioned. The SSD has 5 GPT partitions which are in use. I used a partition manager in Windows to shrink the size of the 5th partition (the windows system partition) so that i now have about 31 GB of unpartitioned, unused space after the 5 used partitions where i want to install Solaris into.
For installation, I downloaded the Solaris text installer ISO and burned it onto a CD-R. Now, whenever the installation menu shows me the GPT partitions of my SSD and i choose "Use a GPT partition of the disk" it always goes back to the first menu screen where it says "Welcome to the Oracle Solaris installtion menu".
Also, the installation menu shows the 5 used GPT partitions correctly, but then it shows me not one, but two partitions as "unused" with a size of 0.0 MB.
What am i doing wrong?

If you have support, then you will be better served by opening a support case.
Assuming you don't, or you would have gone there already... There may well be bugs with supporting multiple OS's under GPT partitions. I have no idea how much testing we did for such cases, and to be totally honest we put little effort into dual-booting systems these days, as using VM's in VIrtualBox or other VM managers is a better answer for 90i+% of people.
That said, posting the output from prtvtoc for the disk would give someone a chance to see if there's an obvious bug.

How print duplex on Solaris 10 0508 x86 ?

Hello,
I just installed Solaris 10 0508 x86 on a Ultra 20. We have a networked HP laserjet 8150dn printer. What is the option to print duplex?
Previously on Solaris 10, 1106, I followed the instructions on http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/submitted/duplex_printing.html and was able to print double-sided.
However, now on update 0508, the same lp and lpadmin option "-o sides=two-sided-short-edge" doesn't work - still prints single-sided. What gives? Please help me save a tree!
These lp or lpadmin options didn't work either:
"-o duplex"
"-o sides=duplex"
Also looked at HP's SOLe134.PKG, but it's for SPARC, not x86 - couldn't find a download for x86.
Thanks!
Edited by: onetree on Jul 16, 2008 9:36 PM

I'm not sure if there was some sort of corruption, but I eventually resolved the issue by removing and readding the printing-related packages from the CD:
SUNWpcr
SUNWpcu
SUNWpsr
SUNWpsu
SUNWpsf
SUNWscplp
SUNWspman
SUNWscpu
and then installing a default local virtual printer before the network one:
# lpadmin -p new-printer -v /dev/term/a -T PS -I postscript..
# enable new-printer
# accept new-printer
# lpstat -t

Solaris 8 on x86: been there, am back

Just a quick opinion on my Solaris experience: it's as evil as Win2K when it comes to partitioning, except it's even harder (in my case not possible) to get lilo to boot Solaris, even on a primary partition... it's not quicker than Linux or FreeBSD, as user-hostile as *BSD, the install feels clunky and awkward...
CDE is awful, even XFCE beats it by miles, I'm glad GNOME is there but not for x86 alas??
ash could really be replaced by bash or anything with command line completion for instance, etc etc.
I won't blame them for lack of hardware support, but as it is I was without network under Solaris (USB ADSL), so really there wasn't much to keep me using it. Except it's messed up my partitions badly enough that I had to reinstall Linux and FreeBSD...
I am sure quite a few of you disagree with that, but I haven't seen any reason to stick to Solaris on my x86. Dissenting opinions please feel free to do so, I am disappointed but curious nevertheless...

Hello,
Actually, I have had a miserable experience attempting to install Solaris 8 on "ANY" INTEL hardware I have. At least, you were able to get it to install. It's a shame though, Sun and others complain about how Microsoft is trying to monopolize, but as much as I do agree for the most part, I have to give it to MS. Their OS' 95/98/W2K/NT, they all work on "ANY" hardware it seems as long as you can get the drivers from the manufacturer -- from the oldest to the newest machines.
For Sun to enjoy a better share of the market, it needs to spend more time ensuring its OS works(even if it's not supported) on most INTEL H/W. This will ensure people, like myself(consultants) who are looking at new possibilities for Unix can seriously consider the product by evaluating it on simple machines and once proven can actually consider the product as part of a recommendation to customers. What this has reaffirmed, is that, the big 3 Unix houses -- HP, SUN, and IBM have a great product on Mid-to-Mainframes but are still sleeping while MS makes a BIG whole in their pocket with software that works on ANY! platform or H/W. The reality is that I would be hard pressed to recommend Linux for any "Prime Time" production(don't get me wrong, Linux is just fine and I use it and will continue to use it, but it's not ready for prime time) application and although I do not believe MS NT or 2K has the maturity of Unix, it certainly stands out in terms of viability. If this is another way to sell more proprietary boxes, I'll just say -- remember what happened to apple? Great product with a very smaaall market share...
As you can tell, I am deeply dissapointed because SUN make awsome workstations and servers and can easly translate that success to the INTEL platform by having their software run on more H/W(even if it's not supported). This would definitely go a long way, in my opinion, to gain the market share they seem to be wanting to acquire since they did take MS to court.
Very Dissapointed,
Frank

Installation of Solaris 10 pr x86 paltform

Hello !
Recently I get a version of Solaris 10 for x86 paltform.
I've tried to install Solaris on my comp but I get the next
error:
elf32 read error
Load error: Read of "paltform/i86pc/kernel/unix failed.
First I thought that the problem is in SATA 160 Maxtor disk,
becouse i had one problem with live distribution of Ubuntu Linux too.
So I remove this harddisk and i've replaced it with the ATA Maxtor disk.
I've got the same result.
Has anyone any idea what could be wrong?
Thank you!
by Damijan Bec

I'm newbie in Unix arena so what is "elf32 and " fb" ?
I was hooked by linux three years ago, and now I'm trying to find out what the really UNIX lookse like. And the other reason is that ESRI (GIS software) software works better on UNIX platform then Linux.

Installation of solaris 10 on x86 intel dual core or core 2 duo

hi all,
while i am installing solaris 10 on x86 machine which has 250 GB hard disk and 4 GB RAM with intel dual core processor
the first steps are going cool i.e. in the first cd it asks about partitions and it is accepting the partitions and also the partitions sizes what i am giving are:
/ -- 30 GB, /etc -- 6GB, /home -- 6GB, /usr -- 6GB, /export/home -- 100GB, /var -- 9GB, swap-- 10GB
and after the first CD got installed it asks for restart the system and when it
boots then i am getting the booting option and i selected it as solaris and one more thing to tell is it has already Windows XP pro+sp2
after selecting it boots with solaris and
after few seconds it restarts
please tell me if any body knows that is there any compatability issue with the processor that solaris is not going to support for intel core 2 duo or dual core processors
looking for the good reply

OK, so what are the options if we run the HCL check and come up with some incompatibilities??
I have Solaris 11/06 (from DVD media) installed on a brand new Dell Inspiron 530 (dual boot with XP). After the grub menu appears, and selecting 'Solaris', it takes about 3 minutes to get to a command line. I get a few errors at that time, such as:
file in / differ from the boot archive: /etc/path_to_inst
cannot find /etc/devices/mdi_ib_cache: no such file
I tried running 'svcadm clear system/boot-archive' and it seems to attempt to boot into a graphical CDE, but I just end up with an unintelligible multi-colored display, and need to power off.
I've checked the HCL and found some incompatibilities, but I don't know how to work-around these?
Running the Hardware compatibility test came up with the following:
No Solaris Driver
No Solaris Driver
Communication
Conexant
HSF 56k Data/Fax Modem
No Solaris Driver
No Solaris Driver
Network
Intel Corporation
*82562V-2 10/100 Network Connection*
No Solaris Driver
No Solaris Driver
Multimedia
Intel Corporation
HD Audio Controller
Can I simply disable the Modem and the HD audio in windows XP device manager, then reboot to Solaris, to get around these two (I tried this already)??
For the network card driver incompatibility, there is a Sun doc that says the workaround is to run: update_drv -a -i '"pci8086,1064"' iprb, but when I run this command at the initial Solaris command line, or try to edit any file for that matter, I get the error "read-only file system" Seems I have my hands tied in maintenance mode.
Thanks.

There is a note # 833665.1 on this which states "The issue is caused by the Host Storage metrics collected by the agent" and also a Patch 8477122 has been created for this issue.
However, there is nothing mention in the Note # 833665.1 about the following one message.
Feb 2 04:07:34 ndc-m9k-2-r1 oracle[7332]: [ID 566193 user.error] n2a get_local_info: ioctl (get interface flags): Interrupted system call
Can anyone please tell me
1. whats the significance of the "oracle[7332]: [ID 566193 user.error] n2a get_local_info: ioctl (get interface flags): Interrupted system call" message in the OS log?
2. Does this message get stops on applying of patch # 8477122 ?
Thank you,
Bhavin

There are a number of known issues with the 10g agent on Solaris and patches are available. I assume you are running the 10.2.0.5 agent since you reference patch 8477122. If this is a brand new agent installation i would start with applying the latest PSU update which contains many related fixes. If you are still getting the error after this, open an SR with Oracle Support with your specific error message.
