Solaris 10 branded zone VM Template Install Problem

Hi,
I don't seem to be able to install the template on a system that uses an aggregate NIC (aggr0).  The template install script is looking for physical NICs, which it can't use since the NICs are assigned to the aggregate link.
Any suggestions for a clean solution or workaround?
Thanks

On line 1 of /tmp/zcfg.final:
SYSsolaris10: No such zone configured
Problem configuring the zone10 zone, exitingThis indicates one of two things:
1. You are not running Solaris 11. You may be running Solaris 11 Express, where that template zone name would have been SUNWsolaris10 rather than SYSsolaris10.
2. You do not have the solaris10 brand installed. You can fix that with:
# pkg install pkg:/system/zones/brand/brand-solaris10In either case, it would probably be better for the script that wraps the archive to check before trying to install the zone to give a more helpful error message.
rm: Cannot remove any directory in the path of the current working directory
//bootimage.7Oayzm/bootstrap
rm: Unable to remove directory //bootimage.7Oayzm: Directory not emptyThis seems to be an unrelated bug in the error handling routines in the script that wraps the archive. I'll raise this thread to the attention of those that assemble the VM Templates.

  • [Solved] Arch Linux in a Solaris branded Zone

    Hello,
    After having read this article at the Genunix WiKi, I 'd very much like to install Arch Linux (http://204.152.191.100/wiki/index.php/I … anded_zone) in a Solaris branded Zone.  However, the Arch Linux file to download is about two years old now, so I 'd like to roll one with a bit more recent kernel.
    I just wonder what might be the procedure to do so.
    a) Is it just unpacking the ISO inside the zone and let it enroll whilst booting?, or
    b) is it advisable to install the old package and upgrade from there?
    I am quite curious to learn how this works.
    TIA, Algey

    Hi,
    it does indeed sound like an interesting little project. You should, however, revert to your procedure (a) and use one of the recent ISO images the Arch team has updated this year.
    Using that old tar will give you numerous headaches when trying to upgrade. Doing a simple upgrade from that old file will most probably break the system, thats why they took the effort to provide the new ones.
    Good luck.

  • Solaris Branded Zones, Unable to reboot/Halt

    Hi People,
    Hoping someone can help. Im running Solaris 10 on a Sun Workstation Ultra 45. I have two disks. One disk has the default install of solaris 10 all updated to the latest patches.The second disk is mounted as /zones and holds each of the zones on ZFS. I have then downloaded and installed successfully Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 and Solaris 10 zones. So I have 3 zones.
    The problem I am facing is I can boot up all 3 zones fine and they work great, however when I halt or reboot either Solaris 8 or solaris 9, they never come back up. I try and zlogin to them and telnet and ssh and they are totally unresponsive and quite literally dont boot. I have tried to pkill -9 -z zonename ; umount /zonesfilesystem; zpool clear and even rebooted the Global zone. Still will not come up. The only way they will boot after being shutdown is if i shutdown the global zones and turn the server off and back on.
    Solaris 10 Zone boots up and down fine with no isses. I have tried this on both UFS and ZFS thinking it might be a file lock issue. Still unable to reboot or halt a zone and bring it back up.
    Any help please :)
    Thanks in advance.

    When they are unable to come back up, what does 'zoneadm list -cv' say? If the state of the zone is "down" or "shutting_down", you can probably benefit from the fix for:
    7038404 outstanding zone references should not cause zone_destroy(2) to hang
    This is available in 147440-05 (sparc) / 147441-05 (x86) or later.

  • Solaris 8 Intel 10/00 Install problem

    When I boot with the Install CD (Solaris 8 Software 1/2),
    in the next screen of install:
    Select the type of instllation you want yo perform:
    1 Solaris Interactive
    2 Custom Jumpstart
    After selecting one of the two options it appears the next error:
    Booting kernel/unix...
    do_relocate: bad strndx 3275
    do_relocations:/kernel/genunix do_relocated failed
    Krtld:error during initial bad/link phase
    P.D Im using the Solaris 8 Intel 10/00 booting from CD.
    In fact, If I use the Solaris 8 Installation CD theres is no problem on booting the kernel from the CD.
    Any Idea?
    Thanks.

    Kalpesh - do you work in support? Most users don't have the luxury
    of spare media or systems to experiment with:-)
    Perhaps the original poster could tell us the exact HW config so
    others can offer suggestions?

  • Solars 10 x86 1/06 install problem - empty bootloader

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install 1/06 on a noname AMD X2, on a SATA disk. Had the previous version installed without problems, but 1/06 wouldn't show any options in GRUB. After booting from DVD, GRUB shows me the version number, no options to choose from, and the GRUB prompt. Tried on different machines the same on all.
    Any help would really be appreciated.
    cheers
    cray

    Looks like Solaris 10 x86 1/06 GA has got an issue with GRUB. I've downloaded Solaris Express (nv-b27a) CD-isos, now GRUB & the installation are working fine. Just wondering if I was the only one having this issue (as I've tested it on 3 different machines and on VPC it most likely wasn't a HW-issue).

  • Solaris 8 on Toshiba 8200 install problem

    Has anyone tried to install Solaris 8 on a Toshiba 8200? I have set the CDRom drive as a bootable device but the install does not start, just a flashing cursor on the screen. I have tested the CD in another computer and all is ok. I do not have a USB floppy disk drive so cannot try the floppy disk boot option.
    Is there a URL available for a WEB based install?

    I would send a request to Technical for Toshiba on their help page at
    <a href="http://www.toshiba.com>Toshiba</a>
    They should be more knowledgeable about specific platform issues.  Also go to the HCL documentation to look up EQ

    Hello All,
    I would love to know if someone has a solution to this as I am seeing a similar issue with a slightly different setup.
    Solaris 8 and Netra 240. I get the same result with and without patches and finish scripts. After the jumpstart and the failed boot attempt from disk. I can boot from cd, copy the glm driver from the cd to disk, and then everything works as it should. Obviously this is not a solution but only a work around.
    Is it something to do with the SCSI hardware architecture used in the *240s?

    Sorry, please ignore my previous message about the wrong ip address (I assume you entered a valid ip address).
    The problem you are facing is related to the defaultrouter, and I assume you are running Solaris 11 update 1.
    If so, to workaround the problem for the time being you may edit the /etc/defaultrouter file in the global-zone and enter the ip address of the default router (you can remove this change when the template deployment is completed).
    If you have no idea about the default router ip address, just rename /etc/defaultrouter (e.g. to /etc/defaultrouter.orig) so that it cannot be found by the template. Again, you can undo the change when deployment is complete.

    This problem seems some strange - this time with Solaris 10u4, from 10 containers installed on a brand new X2200 (2x cpu) only one do not output those errors, but just this one cannot install the dsee or proxy. This time the errors were from:
    Installation of <SUNWxwplr> on zone <dsee-proxy> partially failed.
    Installation of <SUNWdtdmr> on zone <dsee-proxy> partially failed.
    Installation of <SUNWmconr> on zone <dsee-proxy> partially failed.
    Installation of <SUNWrmwbr> on zone <dsee-proxy> partially failed.
    Installation of <SUNWlvmr> on zone <dsee-proxy> partially failed.
    Installation of <SUNWzebrar> on zone <dsee-proxy> partially failed.
    So the machine was, too, just installed. After several hours, anoter atempt to install a zone, this time just this one, returned no errors - and the dsee installed without any complains. All configurations were for whole root zones. Used was Solaris 10u4 with the most recent patch cluster applied.

  • Solaris 8 branded zone and privileges

    Hello,
    I've just installed a Solaris 8 Branded zone to migrate an old server. The migration worked like a charm, and everything seems ok excepted one thing. The zone must run a Lotus Domino server, so the process needs to bind ports 80, 443 and 389, but it can't.
    I've found things about the limitpriv directive for the zone configuration, and the net_privaddr privilege to allow a process to bind ports under 1024.
    So now, if I run the process in the non global zone as root, it can bind, but if it is launched as the user notes, it can't.
    If I use the ppriv command to see what are the privileges of the process, I see :
    1945:   /opt/lotus/notes/latest/sunspa/server
    flags = <none>
            E: file_link_any,proc_exec,proc_fork,proc_info,proc_session
            I: file_link_any,proc_exec,proc_fork,proc_info,proc_session
            P: file_link_any,proc_exec,proc_fork,proc_info,proc_session
            L: contract_event,contract_observer,file_chown,file_chown_self,file_dac_execute,file_dac_read,file_dac_search,
            file_dac_write,file_link_any,file_owner,file_setid,ipc_dac_read,ipc_dac_write,ipc_owner,net_bindmlp,net_icmpaccess,
            net_mac_aware,net_privaddr,net_rawaccess,proc_audit,proc_chroot,proc_exec,proc_fork,proc_info,proc_lock_memory,
            proc_owner,proc_session,proc_setid,proc_taskid,sys_acct,sys_admin,sys_audit,sys_mount,sys_nfs,sys_resourceSo, the net_privaddr appears in the limit, but it is not enabled. How can I make it enabled for that process?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the link, good explanations about privileges but they seem unusable in Solaris 8 branded zone. It suggests to create a role with the privileges my process needs, using the "rolemod -K" command, but this option does not exist for the rolemod command in my Solaris 8 zone, it just supports "classic" RBAC.
    Maybe the solution would be to create the good profile for the user running the process, but I'm a little bit lost with RBAC and I can't find an existing profile corresponding to what I want.
    Actually, the limitpriv for my zone is "default,net_rawaccess,net_privaddr,file_dac_read" and that's all. I added net_privaddr and file_dac_read because I saw that a "ppriv -D" on the Lotus server complained about the lack of these privileges, but in fact they are already included in default privileges.

    I see mention of a similar problem, but only with early development releases of solaris10 branded zones running on Solaris 11 development bits. It seems as though this is not what you are running.
    Since there are no swap caps nor brand emulation in place, the next thing I would suspect would be that you somehow have inconsistencies between key libraries (e.g. libc) and the kernel. This could happen if you have a full-root zone that has been force attached (zoneadm -z <zone> attach -F). In the past, I've seen products that do this under the covers (e.g. Veritas Cluster) so it may have happened without your knowledge. If it is a sparse root zone, you may want to run "zoneadm -z <zone> detach; zoneadm -z <zone> attach -u". Prior to doing so, take whatever precautions you would normally take when patching a system.
    If you open a support call about this I bet the first advice you are going to get is to patch, as you seem to be 2+ years behind. Also, newer releases of Java 5 are available at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javasebusiness/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase5-419410.html.

  • Multithreading issue on Solaris 8 branded zone

    Hi,
    We are facing a multithreading problem in Solaris 8 container (branded zone) on Solaris 10.
    The core file shows 2 LWPs for a single thread.
    First LWP
    (dbx) lwp
    current LWP ($lwp) is l@1403
    (dbx) print this->m_ThreadId->m_IdImpl.m_PosixId
    this->m_ThreadId.m_IdImpl.m_PosixId = 1404U
    Second LWP
    (dbx) lwp
    current LWP ($lwp) is l@1404
    (dbx) print this->m_ThreadId->m_IdImpl.m_PosixId
    this->m_ThreadId.m_IdImpl.m_PosixId = 1404U
    Another point to note is that dbx returns 'MT support is disabled' for this program even though it has been built using the -mt option. The dbx version is Sun Dbx Debugger 7.5 2005/10/13.
    As far as I have read, the Solaris 8 branded zone uses the alternate T2 thread library. Note also that this program is linked with the alternate thread library @ /usr/lib/lwp.
    This alternate thread library is supposed to use the 1:1 thread model.
    Can someone explain why are we then seeing 2 LWPs for a single thread ?
    Thanks,
    Best regards,
    Raj Iyer

  • Solaris 10-Branded Zone

    Hi,
    I am trying to establish whether the following configuration is officially supported (and documented):
    "Non-Global zone running a release of Solaris 10 which is older than the release of Solaris 10 running in the Global Zone".
    I'm familiar with the idea of Branded Zones to support Solaris 8, 9 & some Linux kernels, and have seen some forum posts where people have created Solaris 10-branded zones, but haven't really seen anything that puts the official seal of approval on that configuration. Also I'm familiar with LDOMs and appreciate that I could get to where I want to be that way too.
    Any help welcome.
    Thanks,
    Paul.

    This will be supported in Solaris 10 Upate 9 to a degree, using p2v. Below is a reply I had to a request I'd put in. You might also want to read this
    http://blogs.sun.com/jerrysblog/entry/zones_p2v
    Hi Sean,
    I got information that p2v project is being backported for S10u9
    This means, that you will be able to install a native zone from a flar.
    I don't have detailed information at the moment, how this will work in terms of
    patching in combination with Global Zone and other sibling NGZ's.
    +According to Jerry Jelinek, Solaris10-branded zones will not being backported to Solaris 10,+
    Got this info yesterday evening from Jerry.
    I'll provide some more info about the p2v project for native zones in coming Solaris 10_U9,
    once I got more details.
    So, I'd suggest to check, whether the mentioned p2v project with flar on native zones might fit your requirements.
    Thanks,
    Alfred

  • Creating a Solaris 8 branded zone

    I am in the process of configuring a Solaris 8 branded zone using the SUNWsolaris8 package and the instructions in the Solaris8 Container Guide. Solaris 10 08/07 is installed in the global zone. I have the following kernel patches installed as required: 127111-08 and 128548-08. I get the following error after configuring the zone when I try to verify the zone:
    -bash-3.00# zonecfg -z gfxc-qazone
    gfxc-qazone: No such zone configured
    Use 'create' to begin configuring a new zone.
    zonecfg:gfxc-qazone> create -t SUNWsolaris8
    zonecfg:gfxc-qazone> set autoboot=true
    zonecfg:gfxc-qazone> set zonepath=/export/zones/gfxc-qazone
    zonecfg:gfxc-qazone> add attr
    zonecfg:gfxc-qazone:attr> set name=machine
    zonecfg:gfxc-qazone:attr> set type=string
    zonecfg:gfxc-qazone:attr> set value=sun4u
    zonecfg:gfxc-qazone:attr> end
    zonecfg:gfxc-qazone> verify
    gfxc-qazone: unknown brand.
    gfxc-qazone: Invalid document
    I cannot find any other information anywhere on this error. I am hoping those that have successfully installed a Solaris 8 branded zone can help me out. Thanks.

    I have installed the SUNWs8brand packages before I started the configuration and I also installed the patch. I am not sure what you mean if the package installed in the correct order. I cannot find what I am missing. The original installation for the global zone was using the SUNCreq with other packages added during the installation. I realized after the O/S installation that I needed the zone packages as well as the live upgrade packages. After installing those packages I installed the SUNWs8brand packages. Let me know if there is something else that I am missing. I am thinking of re-installing the O/S with the End User software group.
