Setting time on solaris Zone

Hi all,
Simple question I hope. I assume it is not possible to set a different time for a solaris Zone to the global Zone. Is this the case?
Cheers

Yes. Zones do not implement a virtual machine. There is no separate clock.
Like any other process, you can set your own timezones, but that's about it.

  • Setting Time in Solaris

    How do I change the time in Solaris?
    My Solaris server is running 12 minutes late and I'd like to change the time.
    Thanks!
    NS

    From "man date"............... :
    The command
    example# date 1234.56
    sets the current time to 12:34:56.
    NB Remember to be very careful setting time, key files , databases etc may well be relying on it and can react badly to sudden jumps. My advise would be to make any date changes at the single user state (see man init).

  • Set Time Zone automatically doesn't work?

    Just returned from a trip to Greece (back home now in Phoenix). Noticed that even connected to wifi in different locations, when "set time zone automatically" was clicked on in general settings, time displayed on iPad seemed stuck in EST. (I made a stop in Philly on way to trip, not sure if that has to do with anything.)
    If i click "set time zone automatically" to off, for some reason my iPad defaults to Washington DC, even though in all my calendar/email settings i have Phoenix set as local time zone. I can change Washington DC to Phoenix and correct time displays on iPad. Just wondering why i can't set it automatically to display correct local time?
    Thanks for any suggestions....

    Ok thanks. Yeah, I ended up using the World Clocks.
    Where it gets interested is, iCal. If you're in a foreign country that's, say, 4 hours ahead, and you add iCal entries to your Calendar while you're out there, should those entries reflect the local time or the home time?
    Also, if you're set the Alarm to wake you up at 8:00am, and you're away on holiday, surely it will go off at home time, not local time, thus going off at the WRONG time.

  • Set Time Automatically without changing time zones?

    Is there a way to choose Set Time Automatically (in Settings/General/Date & Time) and not have Calendar change the times of my appointments when I change time zones?

    Here's what solved my problem: NOT checking Set Time Automatically, and NOT checking Set Time Zone Automatically.  Then manually selecting the proper time zone and city.
    Doing that displays the correct local time, without changing iCal times.

  • Location Services: Setting Time Zone... Always Active

    Just wondering if anybody else is experiencing the always active SETTING TIME ZONE setting in LOCATION SERVICES / SYSTEM SERVICES.
    It's always purple - never stops polling for location.
    I've noticed a change in the battery life for my iPhone 4 and I think this is the culprit.
    Is that setting needed for anything in particular or can it safely be turned off?
    Thanks for any advice you have!

    Grrrrrr, now (after the iOS 5.0.1 update), this is happening not only on my iPad, but also on my iPhone 4S, which never had the problem on iOS 5.0.  So, instead of going from 1 to 0 devices having the problem, I've gone from 1 to 2 after the update!  Isn't this the opposite of what was supposed to happen?
    Letting the iPhone sleep for a while, shutting it off and turning it back on, resetting it with home+power, all do nothing.  Weirdly, it *wasn't* doing this right after I did the update; it only started about a day or so later.
    ****Update: and now it's off again, but it did come on for about 10 minutes and then turned off again.  Hmmmmm. I agree that having the status bar icon enabled is a good idea, to at least be able to see when this happens and disable it if you're in a situation where battery life matters.

  • Setting time zones at sea?

    Is there any app for Iphone that will let you set time zones by number offset from UTC. I am often in time zones that have no city in them, so they are not listed in the clock app.

    Maybe I am not being clear.  Let's try again.
    We don't have cell-phone coverage in the middle of the ocean. 
    I turn my cell and wifi off when we get off shore to save power. 
    I use the iPhone as a little computer.  I am looking for a way to have my four or five wall clocks that I used to have on the office wall, on my iPhone. 
    During doing my job I like to be able to know:
    What time is it in the time zone I am in.
    What time is it on my best friend's ship.
    What time is it on the port we left.
    What time is it on in the port we are going to.
    And what time it is in UTC
    I just am looking for an app that gives me the ability to set time clocks by all time Zones around the world by zone offset from UTC.
    Setting time zones by city names is useless to me.
    Setting time zones by pinging the Internet or cell towers can not be done where I am at.

  • AppleScript or Automater to Set Time Zone (or just the time)

    Hi,
    I am trying to have a script that will change the timezone to UK - (ie reduce my macbook by one hour from European time) before I run an application.
    I use a MythTV backend on my network that is in UK time, and I am in Europe. However, the mythfront end I have on my mac needs to be in same timezone for it to work with the backend.
    However, instead of having to go to the System Prefs before I want to run the myth front end, I'll like to build a Automater workflow (app) that changes time to UK time, runs the mythfront end (and changes back once I close myth front end).
    My problem is I can't get any workflow to work to change the timezone. I found a workflow on the net for Automater, but this doesn't work. The auomater app was called 'Set Time Zone 1.0 - by NyghtHawk productions' but only returns this error about not being able to find this file:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Support/syst emsetup-panther.
    (which I guess is obvious as I'm using Snow leopard and not panther)
    Does anyone know of a working way to script setting the time in Mac Os X ?
    Thanks in advance
    Alex

    I have solved the Applescripting of System Preferences to change the Time Zone.
    My problem is that my time zone (Melbourne - Australia) causes my 3rd gen iPod nano to lose its time zone and time settings when it is _plugged in_ to my mac (Note: Not when it is synchronised).
    I have a pair of Applescripts: the first sets the time zone to Noumea, run before the iPod is plugged in and the second resets the time zone to Melbourne after the iPod is physically disconnected.
    timezone=Noumea
    This script is run BEFORE plugging in the iPod.
    This ensures the iPod time zone is not NUKED.
    The corresponding script to reset time zone is
    run when iPod is physically disconnected
    tell application "System Preferences" to activate
    tell application "System Events"
    tell process "System Preferences"
    (* get Date & Time preference pane *)
    tell menu bar item "View" of menu bar 1
    delay 0.5
    click menu item "Date & Time" of menu 1
    end tell
    (* get Time Zone subpane *)
    tell tab group 1 of window "Date & Time"
    click radio button "Time Zone"
    tell group 1
    set value of combo box 1 to "Nouméa - New Caledonia"
    We need to focus the combo box before "hitting" return
    PROBLEM: we dont know if it is already focused
    a) if is already focused the first 'return' key sets the time zone
    b) if was not focused the first 'return' key does nothing
    the 'tab' key will then focus it
    and then the second 'return' key sets the time zone
    keystroke return & tab & return -- make it stick
    delay 0.5
    end tell
    end tell
    end tell
    end tell
    timezone=Melbourne
    This script is run AFTER physically disconnecting the iPod.
    This ensures the iPod time zone is not NUKED.
    The corresponding script to set up the time zone to Noumea
    is run BEFORE iPod is physically plugged in
    tell application "System Preferences" to activate
    tell application "System Events"
    tell process "System Preferences"
    (* get Date & Time preference pane *)
    tell menu bar item "View" of menu bar 1
    delay 0.5
    click menu item "Date & Time" of menu 1
    end tell
    (* get Time Zone subpane *)
    tell tab group 1 of window "Date & Time"
    click radio button "Time Zone"
    tell group 1

  • Why is the location services arrow constantly on for setting time zone on iOS 5.1?

    I have updated to iOS 5.1 OTA (Over The Air, not by connecting to iTunes and updating) on my iPhone 4S and the purple location services arrow is constantly on in the status bar when setting time zone and automatic update of date and time are turned on simultaneously. I had this problem prior to the update, but I understand that not everyone has this issue as my friend has these two settings on and doesn't have the problem. I have tried restoring and all that (obviously), but not restoring and setting up as new.
    Somebody please help because it's an obvious fault in the system if nothing else. I have heard somebody else complain about this and the had a 32 GB 4S the same as me. I don't really see why memory should matter but my friend who doesn't have the problem has a 16GB 4S.
    Also, I am not in an area that is between time zones when this is happening.

    If it is turned on I can't be sure if anything else is using my location (at a glance) since the arrow is constantly showing. I am aware that this function will use battery power, maybe constantly, but the arrow shouldn't be constantly showing. If it should, then why doesn't my friends iPhone show it? Either way there is a problem here.

  • IPhone 4s Battery life, Location Services, Setting Time Zone

    So, many threads and articles on the internet are claiming that turning off "setting time zone" in location services (under system services) solves their battery drainage issue.
    I've tried turning off location services together with other things, and while there seems to be an improvement, I don't really think it is solving the problem completely in my case.  For example, even after:
      - a full iphone restore from iTunes
      - no third party apps
      - the phone in Airplane mode (no Wifi or cellular connectivity)
      - all location services off
      - iCloud syncing completely off
       - Facetime off
       - iMessage off
       - bluetooth off
        - WITHOUT using the phone at all
    ... I seem to be lsoing about 25 % of charge every nine hours, which extrapolates to 36 hours time, total.
    ... but this is with  ll networking functions turned completely off (set up basically as an old-time PDA but without actually using it) and without turning the phone on.
    Apple claims a time of 200 hours standby with all services on, connected to a WiFi access point with only "ask to join networks" set to the off position.
    How is that possible?
    Looking at my phone usage under General settings, even with all the networking functions turned completely off (as above), my phone is spending about 90 % of time "in use." But I'm not using it!
    At least with this phone, it seems like not all is explained by the "setting time zone" service under location services. Even with the screen off, no networking functions, and limited functionality, it appears to be cranking away at something.
    Can anyone else reproduce this?

    Grrrrrr, now (after the iOS 5.0.1 update), this is happening not only on my iPad, but also on my iPhone 4S, which never had the problem on iOS 5.0.  So, instead of going from 1 to 0 devices having the problem, I've gone from 1 to 2 after the update!  Isn't this the opposite of what was supposed to happen?

  • Zfs core dumps in Solaris Zones after patchcluster installation

    Hi

    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

  • 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.
    Regards

  • Setting time automatically doesn't work?

    One of the less obvious new features in iOS 4.2 is that there is now an option in your Settings app to set the time automatically.
    The only problem with that option is that it doesn't work - at least not for me. Actually, what happens when I enable that option is that it turns back my clock by 18 minutes. I've tried syncing, waiting, switching the option on or off while connected or not connected to iTunes, and a few other things. Nothing helped.
    Interestingly enough, this new option is not mentioned in the updated iPad User Guide, so I'm not sure how it's supposed to work.
    Any ideas? My timezone is set correctly.

    Yeah, something seems to be broken... I have a WiFi - 3G iPad but I've never turned on the 3G so I'm running (and have always run) WiFi only... My iPad normally lives in California (Cupertino is the default time zone for California) but I am presently in Kansas City visiting family. I also just downloaded and installed the new 4.2 OS yesterday so maybe that has something to do with the issue???
    Anyway, if I turn "Set time automatically" to OFF, set the time zone to either Dallas or Chicago (two choices for the Central time zone where I am now and set the time manually, I can then change the time zone to Denver (all as an experiment) and the time rolls back one hour (so far so good)... I then change the time zone to Cupertino (Ca) and it rolls back another hours (again, good)... Then I reset it to say Chicago (Central) and it moves forward two hours (again, check)... Then, for grins, with it sitting right there and the correct Central time and with Chicago chosen as the current time zone, I then "Set time automatically" back to ON and the time now rolls FORWARD TWO MORE HOURS where it should not go... The bottom line is with "Set time automatically" turned ON I get the wrong time by two hours... Now granted, there is a two hour time zone difference between where I originally set up this machine and where I am now and maybe that has something to do with it??? Or something is broken in the OS...
    Anyone have any thoughts or guidance???
    thanks... bob...

  • 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.

    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?

  • Set Time & Date Automatically

    Hi folks, I ventured into the Time/date settings and have my time zone set to Eastern USA, and checked the set time/date automatically setting. Then I locked that window via the paclock in the lower left.
    How often does Snow Leopard ping those servers? What would happen if for whatever reason the time server was not reachable?
    What if the LAN I'm on has its own time service?

    I found this thread while investigating a solution for the same problem on my one-month-old unibody MBP running 10.5.6. The clock on my MBP and my old G4 iMac have never been in sync because the iMac (forever stuck on Tiger) can set the time automatically using a time server and the MBP cannot.
    I keep all of the System Preferences which have lock/unlock capability locked. Once I unlocked the Date & Time preferences and enabled the "automatic" option, re-locking or leaving Date & Time unlocked had no effect. If I quit System Preferences, the "Set date & time automatically" option in the Date & Time pane would be unchecked the next time I opened System Preferences and went into the Date & Time pane.
    I tried the new user creation--no admin privileges--and that did not have any effect, so I deleted the non-admin user. On a whim, I created another admin user (my account is an admin). Before logging in as the new admin user, I made sure the "automatic" option was enabled and the Date & Time pane was locked. I think I quit System Preferences at this point, but I am not absolutely certain. I used fast user switching to login as the new admin user, went into the Date & Time preferences pane, and the "automatic" option was checked. I switched between the accounts a couple of times, going in and out of System Preferences in each account and the "automatic" option stayed enabled. I logged out of both accounts and the "automatic" option survived when I logged back into my usual account. The next thing I did was delete the new admin user and restart the computer. When I logged in normally, the "automatic" option was still set.
    I have no idea why creating a new admin account would solve the problem and I would be really interested to know if it works for anyone else....

  • 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.
