OSB and Solaris Zones

Hi,
Does anybody have any experience of running OSB inside a Solaris zone?
I'm experimenting with this at the moment and would like to share the OSB installation with the global zone, but keep the /usr/etc and /usr/tmp directories where the host-specific stuff is stored private.
Thanks.

I following Oracle® Secure Backup Installation and Configuration Guide
Release 10.3 :
- To Viewing SCSI Bus Name-Instance Parameter Values in Solaris :
# cd /usr/local/oracle/backup/install
# installdriver
bash: installdriver: command not found
# ./installdriver
case: Too many arguments
How could i can run the installdriver script for SCSI information

Resource Management and Solaris Zones Developer Guide

Solaris Information Products ("Pubs") is creating a
developer guide for resource management and Solaris Zones.
The department is seeking input on content from application
developers and ISVs.
We plan to discuss the different categories of applications
that can take advantage of Solaris resource management
features, and provide implementation examples that discuss
the particular RM features that can be used.
Although running in a zone poses no differences to most
applications, we will describe any possible limitations and
offer appropriate workarounds. We will also provide
information needed by the ISV, such as determining
the appropriate system calls to use in a non-global zone.
We plan to use case studies to document the zones material.
We would like to know the sorts of topics that you would
like to see covered. We want to be sure that we address
your specific development concerns with regard to these
features.
Thank you for your comments and suggestions.

Hi there, i'm using solaris resource management in a
server with more thant 2thousand acounts.
Created profiles for users, defaul, staff, root and
services.Seeing the contents of your /etc/project file could be helpful.
But while using rctladm to enable syslog'ing, I set up
global flags of "deny" and "no-local-action" in almos
everything.The flags on the right hand side of the rctladm(1M) output are read-only:
they are telling you the characteristics of the resource control in question (what
operations the system will allow the resource control to take).
Now, many aplications don't work because they are
denied enough process.max-stack-size and
process.max-file-descriptor for them to work.
Applications such has prstat.If prstat(1) is failing due to the process.max-file-descriptor control value, that's
probably a bug. prstat(1) is more likely bumping into the limit to assess how many file
descriptors are available, and then carrying on--you're just seeing a log message since
prstat(1) tested the file descriptor limit, and you've enabled syslog for that control. Please
post the prstat(1) output, and we'll figure out if something's breaking.
I don't find a way to disable the global flags. You can't. I would disable the syslog action on the process.max-stack-size control first;
there is an outstanding bug on this control, in that it will report a false triggering event--
no actual effect to the process. (If you send me some mail, I will add you as a call record
on the bug.)
Can anyone tell me:
how to disable global flags?
how to disable and enable solaris resource management
all together?You could raise all of the control values, but the resource control facility (like the resource
limit facility it superseded) is always active. Let's figure out if you're hitting the bug I mentioned,
and then figure out how to proceed.

EM 12c and Solaris Zone Monitoring

Hi all,
I am using Oracle EM 12c to monitor Oracle database server which run on Solaris zone, which is capped to run using only 4 cores.
BUT the Host management home page is still showing "Total Cores" of 8 (I am using Sun T4-1).
Is there some configuration which required to be done to reflect the number of capped CPU.
Also is there a way to isolate the CPU, Memory, Filesystem and Network utilization to only look at the local zone?
I suspect what I see now represent the resource utilization of the physical machine.
Thank you.
-Joel

Loc,
I've opened quite a few SRs, some handled well, some not. My biggest issue perhaps is that SRs are needed at all. We are a small shop that relied on OEM 10.2 for a long time, skipped over 11G and went right to 12R2. It was a culture shock, and I'm not sure if skipping the version added to our woes.
There are 3 DBAs here, with Oracle experience between 13 and 18 years, we are not newbies. I took the em12c class from Oracle.
But still, acceptance of its use has not been high, mostly because it's no longer the quick, targeted place we 'go to'. It's a huge product now, with much built-in. We are finding we need a mind adjustment to use it and the transition period related to how much time we can spend on that. Our intent, though, was to make things easier, not harder.
Case in point is our implementation of DataGuard. This project was new to us and I made EM12C upgrade as a predecessor project because I needed its help. I ultimately abandoned it, we hired a consultant, we learned manual steps, and that's what we use today. Everything is homegrown.
I feel as through the purpose for EM moved from a DBA monitoring tool. Remember OEM 10.2 and its initial summary page that showed the overall health of everything on one shot? I can't do that in em12c, or at least haven't found that.
Here are some SRs:
SR 3-6392247151
Sr 3-7159111371
SR 3-6645421051
* SR 3-6608820051
SR 3-6667182071
* Covers "invalid objects" missing, something we previously relied on.
Back to the original question of this post - I understand now that if we use EM to switch our databases, the role reversal will show. We would have loved to rely on EM for everything. Now that we must do everything manually, I have to then manually drop the target being monitored and re-add it. Again, something that should make our jobs easier is now harder.
Thanks for listening. Am I really the only DBA that says EM12C is harder to use for basic functionality?

SAP Java and Solaris Zones SolMan 4.0

May require Solaris Zones experience to continue.
I have three SAP database instances/central instances running in three sparse Solaris zones with no problem.
I have created a new sparse zone for a new SAP installation (Solution Manager 4.0) and started the installation. SAP requires a 1.4.2 SDK even though Java 1.5 comes with Solaris 10. The 1.4.2 SDK is in /usr/j2se. The installation in the sparse zone errors out because it can't get "write" rights to /usr/j2se/jre/lib/security/local_policy.jar as it is trying to install some security encryption JCE component.
I have thought about creating a /usr/j2se_zonename file system, copying the contents of /usr/j2se into it and then mounting /usr/j2se_zonename in the zone as a lofs with the name /usr/j2se. However when I do the copy of /usr/j2se I get some recursion errors.
Any thoughts about how to add a writable /usr/j2se into the sparse zone with the least amount of effort ? Otherwise plan B would be to create a "large" zone with a writable /usr directory.
Received a great answer, that while it may not be architecturally "pure" it may get the job done.
You might just download the relevant JDK tarball and unpack that
somewhere in your zone (anywhere you like), and point SAP at it...
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
Get the one called "self extracting file"-- you can unpack that anywhere
you want.

Hi Russ,
no you only have to generate two RFCs to your R/3 and assign them in SMSY to for system monitoring
Then you need a Solution, assign your R/3 to the Solution, setup the system monitoring.

Req: Checkpointing Disks for Solaris Zones

Is there a way using Solaris Zones to checkpoint a disk? I would like to be able to carry out a series of experiments on a test system and start from an identical configuration each time. VMWare calls this capability "Disk checkpointing," and Solaris Zones appears to somewhat resemble VMWare.

Hi,
since the SCOM Agent is not 'cluster aware' you probably have no other choice than restarting the agent and wait for the next discovery cycle of the solaris logical disks. You can speed this up by manually override the discovery interval for that specific
server. After that the disk is not longer monitored.
If you have the time and knowledge you could set up a custom monitoring for clustered filesystems and disable the standard monitoring for that filesystems. But I think thats quite time-consuming. We have the same issues here with our Solaris and Linux clustered/shared
filesystems but we still live with the workaround of restarting the agent.

Oracle 9i Database and Solaris 10 Zones

Can an existing oracle 9i database be moved into a new zone? The database resides on it's own filesystem. The server is runnign Solaris 10, and the zones are not set up yet, but Oracle is installed, and the 2 databases are up and running.
Basically there are 2 existing oracle 9i databases, and I want to setup 2 zones, where none other than the default global exist right now, and have each database in a zone.
Thanks in advance.

You need to do the following -
Configure loopback mount points from the global zone into the local zone through zonecfg (one for Oracle binary, other for Oracle data). I am assuming that you want to share the same Oracle binary location between all the zones. The Oracle database mounts must be separate & make sure that you put them in the respective zone's config only.
Create an oracle user with dba group in both the zones. It's best if the user IDs & group IDs across all the zones & global zone match.
Stop both the database instances in the global zone.
zlogin to a zone, su as oracle and startup the instances.
Hope that works!

Solaris 8, 9, and 10 zones in logical domains

We are planning to migrate our current environment to T5-2.
Current application environment is running with Solaris 8, 9 and 10 OS versions in V8* series and M5000.
Our plan is to install multiple logical domains in T5-2 with Solaris 10 or 11 and migrate the current running Solaris 8, 9 and 10 servers as zones. Plan is to create the flash using flar and restore in the target T5-2.
Will there be any issue with the said OS versions on migration?
Please suggest.

Lars,
Use ldmp2v to convert existing physical server to VM and
Convert Solaris 8 and 9 physical servers to container in Solaris 10 VM?
Is that what you are saying?
Major constraint I have is, applications running in the current physical servers have no vendor support, vendor doesn't exist any more. Application has been locked to run only on the same OS version. What I am worried is, while running ldmp2v should not prevent the application coming up in the new virtualized environment. Keeping that in mind, I gave a thought like
1. Install and configure the CDOM (control domain)
2. configure and Install LDOMs with Solaris 10 OS
3. Run flar on the existing Solaris 10 physical server
4. Transfer the flar created to Solaris 10 LDOM and configure it as a zone
5. For Solaris 8 and 9, create LDOMs with Solaris 10 OS
6. Install additional patches and packages needed for supporting Solaris 8 and 9 zones
6. create flar images on the existing Solaris 8 and 9 physical servers
7. transfer the images to newly created LDOM and configure the zone.
8. Current servers sun4u which has to be converted to sun4v.

Clearcase and Solaris 10/zones

Hi All
Any one installed Rational Clearcase on a node with zones. If so
1. If each zone requires clearcase access, should clearcase be installed per zone
2. Or can it be installed in the global zone once and the zones can get access to it.
Your help will greatly enlighten and help me
Regards

The patch for ClearCase that adds Solaris 10 support specifically states that it does not support zones (yet). Maybe in ClearCase 7?

LDOMs, Solaris zones and Live Migration

Hi all,
If you are planning to use Solaris zones inside a LDOM and using an external zpool as Solaris zone disk, wouldn't this break one of the requirements for being able to do a Live Migration ? If so, do you have any ideas on how to use Solaris zones inside an LDOM and at the same time be able to do a Live Migration or is it impossible ? I know this may sound as a bad idea but I would very much like to know if it is doable.

Thanks,
By external pool I am thinking of the way you probably are doing it, separate LUNs mirrored in a zpool for the zones coming from two separate IO/Service domains. So even if this zpool exist inside the LDOM as zone storage this will not prevent LM ? That's good news. The requirement "no zpool if Live Migration" must then only be valid for the LDOM storage itself and not for storage attached to the running LDOM. I am also worried about a possible performance penalty introducing an extra layer of virtualisation. Have you done any tests regarding this ?

Solaris Zones and NFS mounts

Hi all,
Got a customer who wants to seperate his web environments on the same node. The release of apache, Java and PHP are different so kind of makes sense. Seems a perfect opportunity to implement zoning. It seems quite straight forward to setup (I'm sure I'll find out its not). The only concern I have is that all Zones will need access to a single NFS mount from a NAS storage array that we have. Is this going to be a problem to configure and how would I get them to mount automatically on boot.
Cheers

Not necessarily, you can create (from Global zone) a /zone/zonename/etc/dfs/dfstab (NOT a /zone/[i[zonename[/i]/root/etc/dfs/dfstab notice you don't use the root dir) and from global do a shareall and the zone will start serving. Check your multi-level ports and make sure they are correct. You will run into some problems if you are running Trusted Extensions or the NFS share is ZFS but they can be overcome rather easily.
EDIT: I believe you have to be running TX for this to work. I'll double check.

Oracle licensing in Solaris zones

Hi all,
I've read a few documents about Oracle licensing :
http://www.sun.com/third-party/global/oracle/consolidation/Containers_Oracle_041305.pdf
http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/partitioning.pdf
However, there's one thing not clear to me. In Solaris zones, you dedicate threads (usually referred to as 'CPU' on Solaris) to zones. Oracle licensing is always about the number of cores used by the partition, not the number of threads. How do you convert from threads to cores?
I'll give an example:
A T2 system with 2 processors, 8 cores each, 8 threads each (128 threads in total). You create a resource pool with 2 CPUs (threads): 1 thread from one core, and 1 thread from another one (or they are assigned like that for you) and associate a zone that runs Oracle.
I can think of two ways of calculating the number of cores used:
1) divide the number of dedicated threads by the number of threads per core: 2 / 8 = 0.25 (optionally round it up to 1) -- This is how IBM does its licensing.
2) count the number of physical cores that are being used by the zone. In this case this is 2, as the threads are not running on the same core.
Can anyone help me figuring this out?
Thanks!
Regards,
Mathieu

Hi Dezutterm,
I'm not a sales guy, but from how I understand things... you've already figured it out yourself:

Can anyone help me figuring this out?Like you've seen, Oracle cares about how many cores are running Oracle software, not threads (from "Processor" definition here: http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/technology-price-list.pdf). If you have 2 cores running Oracle software, you take "2" and multiple by the Core Processor Licensing Factor for that model of CPU (http://www.oracle.com/corporate/contracts/library/processor-core-factor-table.pdf) which for a T2 is 0.25... meaning you need 2 x 0.25 = 0.5 processor licenses. If you would have used both threads from the same core, you would need 0.25.
If this isn't correct, somebody please let us know, thanks!

Zfs core dumps in Solaris Zones after patchcluster installation

Hi
I've installed the recommended patch cluster for Solaris 10 (SPARC) on my T2000 Server.
Now after the reboot all the Solaris Zones (got about 10 of them) instantly do zfs core dumps when their booted.

Installation of patch set complete. PLEASE REBOOT THE SYSTEM.
when i tried to reboot the system by init 6 the service iscsi hanged and produced syslog errors about a unkown iocall -> killed the process. System rebooted w/o errors.
Does anyone have got an idea how to find out which patch or whatever do produce these errors?

Hi,
I'm having the same issue of diskmon core dumps after upgrading grid and database from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.2 on Solaris 10 x86-64. Following this thread, I'm trying to deinstall the Oracle 11.2.0.1 grid home.
I answered the following questions asked by the grid deinstall tool:
1. ASM configuration was not detected in this Oracle home. Was ASM configured in this Oracle home (y|n): y
2. Specify the ASM Diagnostic Destination: /db01/app/oracle/diag/asm/+ASM
3. Specify the diskgroups that are managed by this ASM instance: DATA FRA
4. De-configuring ASM will drop all the diskgroups at cleanup time. Do you want deconfig tool to drop the diskgroups:
If I answer no to question 1, the tool exits with error.
How do I answer question #4? (confused about this question of dropping diskgroups, it's already been upgraded)
Deinstall of Oracle db Home 11.2.0.1 was successful.
The +ASM instance has been upgraded and is running fine under 11.2.0.2 except for the excessive diskmon core dumps.
Thanks,
Lisa

Can EM12c Cloud Control agent be installed in a solaris zone?
If so, are Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 zones supported?

Yes we can...
Solaris 9 is supported...I have installed agents on solaris 9 and 10

Cluster Patch on Solaris Zones

Hi all,
Lately, there is a requirement for us to perform a cluster patch on some of
our Solaris Zone VMs. Under such circumstances, is there a need to patch
the global zone also ? What are the precautionary measures to take in case
things break and system goes into panic mode ?
Pls provide all necessary steps and procedures. Thanks a lot.
Regards,
LP

There are many available patch clusters, however you would normally use the 'Recommended Patch Cluster" or the latest dated cluster, for example "10/08 Patch Bundle". Note that the latest bundles have been split into multiple parts due to the size increase from older bundles.
Please refer to the [download instructions|http://sunsolve.sun.com/html/cluster_bundle.html] and the readme for the relevant cluster that you download. Note that a password is required to apply that patch clusters and that the password can be found in the readme.
If you run into any problems with the clusters, please contact [email protected] .
