Solaris 10, ipv6 and broken traceroute?

HI,
I have a Solaris 10 machine configured with IPv6. When trying to use traceroute on an IPv6 address, I don't see a list of hops, but see the destination host as the first and only hop in the traceroute.
Doing a snoop, reveals that the Hop Limit field is always 56- thus not really performing a traceroute.
On SunSolve I noticed a few bug reported hinting at this problem, but they all appeared as "integrated". I would have thought these issues would not be present in Solaris 10 GA.
Anyone else seeing this behaviour?

Solaris 8 x86 and 10 x86 differences

I have a device driver that works on Solaris 8 x86. I installed this same device driver on a box with Solaris 10 x86. Under Solaris 10 x86 I get a message "WARNING: minor name <tec
_0> is not compatible network driver name <tec>". Also, opening the device under Solaris 10 x86 will cause the OS to quit responding. Where can I find a list of differences between Solaris 8 x86 and Solaris 10 x86?
Thanks.

BUt obviously its not free :(

Solaris 8, 9 and 10 Security Files

Good Morning:
I am hoping that someone out there can confirm the following scenario:
I want to use a standardized set of security files for all my operating systems Solaris 8, 9, and 10. The files from Solaris 10 and are listed below:
/etc/default/passwd
/etc/default/login
/etc/security/policy.conf
The questions I have are as follows:
1. With the understanding that some of the security features may not work in Solaris 8 or Solaris 9, is there a problem in using these files across the all Operating systems?
2. Are there any known issues with this approach?

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.

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.

Solaris Management Console and X86 Disk

Greetings,
I am trying to use the Solaris Management Console to manage the 2 disks I have in my Intel PC. Both disk are allocated 100% to Solaris 10 and were formatted and partitioned by the installation program.
Why is it that when I use the Management Console it tells me that there is no Solaris FDISK partition and that I cannot manage the disk until I put a Solaris FDISK partition on them? It doesn't seem like the tool is all that useful if it cannot use the default format put on the disk by the install program.
On related note, why is it that auto layout during install creates partitions that are barely large enough to hold the OS? From what I can see it puts the bulk of the disk space into home for user home directories but this creates a problem when trying to install additional SW such as StarOffice.
Cheers
TC

Thanks for your help. I updated my root password from 4 charcters to 4charcters + 4 numerals , still SMC will not let me in. I updated 2 machines and both allow me to login as root (GUI) but SMC wants to confirm the password and will not let me in.
I have reinstalled (initialized rather than upgrade) Solaris 10 on one machine (Ultra60) , that machine now works fine. It allows me to login as root(GUI) ans the SMC accepts my root password
The machines are an Ultra10 and an Ultra60.
I choose to upgrade rather than a new install because of to much info to rebuild.

On Google Chrome the Adobe edge web font looks fuzzy and broken-up. Is there a way to fix this?

I have created a website with Adobe Muse and I am using an adobe edge web font that looks great on all browsers except for google Chrome... On chrome the font looks fuzzy and broken-up. Is there a way to fix this??? Thanks.

Thank you Sanjit,
I have redone the site using using the font TREBUCHET. The font that I was using that was giving me the problem was EXO which is an Adobe Edge Web font. I'd rather use EXO... Here is a screen shot of a sample page, areas where the type looks especially messed up are circled in red.
This only happens when opened in Google Chrome on a Windows PC. However it looks fine with Chrome on my MAC.

Well nevermind! It appears that if I just add my entire music library and run a Match update, it ends up making the associations and showing the tracks as being stored in my local music library.

Solaris 8.x and 9.x (archive) ISO Request

Solaris 8.x and 9.x (archive) ISO Request
Hello, can someone please upload or let me know who I can talk to about getting x86 ISO's for Solaris 8.x and 9.x.
I had previously downloaded them legally for free from Sun and had them in my Sun Connection profile for ages. Now they are gone and I need to get them to do patch testing and troubleshooting for the fleet of 8.x boxed I have to work on now. They run on hardware thats too weak for the Solaris 10.x branch.

Here is link to download Solaris 9: http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/9/
but for Solaris 8 as i read is EOL and is not offered for download

Solaris 8 hangs and data access error on reboot

Hi
using solaris 5.8 on UltraSPARC-IIi 360MHz.
I know it is an old hardware but similiar hardware is running fine. here is the issue,
System booted : works okay for some time then display was hung so system was rebooted ..it gave data access error. again rebooted and it came up fine..
I have pasted the /var/adm/messages here..
http://pastebin.com/m5d2d1d53
Is it a CPU problem or Hard disk or memory issue ? or something else ?
what could be solution , a kernel patch is an option ?
uname -a
SunOS sparc5 5.8 Generic_108528-07 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10
test-all at OBP did not show any error.. passed all.
Thanks

I cant see the /var/adm/messages output, Since you have already performed a Full Diagnostic check, then you boot your solaris using CD and then perform full FSCK on root File Systems and see any errors get reported. Keep doing fsck 2 -3 times untill all the errors are clean.
Also you must check the latest patches available for this system architecture.

Solaris 8 (Intel) and Voodoo Banshee

Hi all,
I need install the Solaris 8 operation system in a INTeL machine and it has this kind of video card. Please, there is a driver for this video card?
I downloaded the Solari's HCL and I could not see this card in the Capatibility List. If someone have some way to do this, please send me a email or the driver.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
Not sure about Windows 95.
But yes, I have done dual boot with Windows 98 and Solaris 8.
I installed Solaris 8 first, used only 50% of disk for Solaris and then installed Windows 98.
May be somebody else in forum can share their experience with Win95.
Thanks

Cross compiling apps on solaris 8 for solaris 10 x86 and x64

Hi All,
We have a few applications built on Solaris 8. and we want to build the same apps on Solaris 10 x86 and x64 but the problem is clearcase does not support Solaris 10 yet.
Can we cross compile the apps on Solaris 8 for Solaris 10 x86 and x64 ? and how ?
waiting for any info on this.
TIA,
warm regards,
Girish

FYI, I noticed the reply on Sun Studio General Forum:
If you build an app on one version of Solaris, the app will run on later Solaris versions. So in particular, you can build an x86 application on Solaris 8 and run it on Solaris 9 and 10.
Unfortunately, an x64 application must be built on a Solaris x64 system, which first became available with Solaris 10.

Bind 9 DNS Server chroot cannot work on Solaris 10 u6 and u7

My Old verion "Solaris 10 x86 Generic_Patch_118844-30" can be run "Bind 9 DNS Server" in chroot mode.
And this is no any problem.
I have been try to use "Bind 9 DNS Server" in Solairs 10 x86 u6 or u7.
The result is not any problem.
But when I turn it run in the chroot mode. the "Bind 9 DNS Server" cannot run.
I have been manuelly run the named:-
/usr/sbin/named -c /etc/named.conf -t /chroot/dns -u named -f -g
The respond is :-
13-May-2009 02:17:46.623 starting BIND 9.3.6-P1 -c /etc/named.conf -t /chroot/dns -u named -f -g
13-May-2009 02:17:46.624 found 1 CPU, using 1 worker thread

13-May-2009 02:17:46.629 exiting (due to early fatal error)
Look like the bind 9 runing in the chroot mode after that cannot find /dev/poll
Even I use Bind 9 version 9.6.0, the result is same.
So, I don't sure the problem are the Bind 9 or Solaris 10 u6/u7
I try to continous install New verion Bind 9 in my old version Solaris 10.
THE Result is NO ANY PROBLEM in old version Solaris 10.
And I already bypass the SMF problem.
Anyone can tell me what the problem in solaris 10 u6/u7?

Looks like something reported similar bug:
[BIND fails to start|http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do%3Bjsessionid=376e1152f0ddc75829ed1725542e?bug_id=6799867]

Solaris 10 Sparc and Oracle 11g DB with GG

Hi,
I have Solaris system with Solaris 10 Sparc and Oracle 11g DB.
From the Golden gate download list I downloaded the Golden Gate for Oracle 11g and Solaris 10.
I tried to Install but I am getting the following error..
$ ldd ggsci
ldd: ggsci: ELF machine type: EM_AMD64: is incompatible with system
Can you please let us know which might be the best golden gate software for us.

Can you please let us know which might be the best golden gate software for us.Possibly the solaris x86_64 build was downloaded, instead of the build for solaris sparc? (I think all of our current solaris builds are 64-bit.) It's almost certainly a download / OS mismatch.
What exact file did you download (what's the file name, before unzipping it), and on your solaris box, what's the result of => "uname -a" and/or "isainfo -v" ...? Just make sure the downloaded file matches what the box is running...
Btw, not that it matters in this case, but if you were hypothetically running a 32-bit database on a 64-bit OS, you'd need a 32-bit build of GoldenGate. But I don't know why you'd do that. (And that's not the problem here.)
