Solaris 10 x86 & DHCP server
Hello
I am trying to create a jumpstart server to install some IBM HS20
blades (usb cdrom is not supported for the installation as I know), so
I installed Solaris 10 x86 in a vmware virtual machine and I am trying
to create the jumpstart server, starting by the DHCP server ! this is
the problem !
My configuration is really simple, I followed the SUN instructions to
create the DHCP configuration...
Any help will be appreciated , thanks in advance

what's your DHCP server configuration?
type dhtadm -P and that will print the configuration of the dhcp table and all your macros.
On another note, I also have a blade server (3Up CMU-4) that has USB keyboard and mouse, even if the interface is PS/2 (converted internally to USB). Solaris will not recognize the keyboard and mouse when installing or booting, but after the kernel is loaded I can use them OK. I do get the keyboard profile error and I think it is related to the fact that there is no PS/2 k/m enabled. The only way that I found that I could use the mouse in the graphical interface was to use a USB keyboard with a hub and connect a USB mouse to the keyboard, Anybody has any explanation for this behavior?

Solaris 10 x86 PXE and jumpstart using Linux DHCP server !!
Hi,
I am trying to get a my Solaris 10x86 jumpstart rolling.
I have created the images for the OS, but the only issue I have ahead is using a Linux box as a DHCP server for my X86 box to get the image.
Is it possible to have a linux host that serves as a dhcp server to jumstart X86 host with Sol 10 x86
or do I need to have a solaris host that runs DHCP service on it.
Any advice on this issue.
Thanks.Well, if you don't think the online Documentation helpful, then the better way is reading step-by-step instructions from a book. Get to local bookstore, i.e Barne&Nobles or Border or any big local bookstore, there should be pretty good book for Unix Administrator (Solaris version).
If you have time and think you can memorize then, read on the spot; otherwise, buy the book for future reference.
If that's not what you had in mind, then this link of free online book might help : http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/solaris8/chapter/ch04.html
Normally, oreilly online bookstore offers free books to accredited universities, colleges, and organizations. However, if that option isn't for you, it might even offer free sample chapters that might just suit your needs.
hoep it helps.

Does solaris dhcp server support user class
Does solaris dhcp server support user class(option 77). In my environment, solaris dhcp server seems just ignore this option set in the client dhcp discover.
Does anybody can help me.The clients are all Windows 7 x64 (but I've replicated the problem on MacOS and Solaris clients). The server is Solaris 11 x86.
For the problem to be the ARP cache, wouldn't the client's MAC address have to change during the reboot (i.e. the change in the client's MAC address is what causes the ARP cache to get confused, and hence the client gets blocked because of the MAC mismatch)?

Diskless x86 solaris 10 (DHCP, PXE booting)
Has anyone gotten an x86 box to be a diskless client with Solaris 10?
I have a server setup(both jumpstart and diskless server) and booting sparc just fine, but I'd like to get an x86 machine working too (you know, for fun :)
I have my LX50 jumpstarting (standard install) just fine, but when I try to diskless boot it, it hangs with a "cannot mount filesystem" type error. I have a feeling it's because I'm using the standard netinstall nbp boot kernel in tftpboot.
So, what bootfile should I be using, what options do I need to set in my DHCP server (ISC DCHP version 3)
Thanks,
ChrisAfter the end of the kernel line in grub add "-v -m verbose" and see what gets printed during the boot before it hangs.

Solaris 10 x86 - SMC server not starting
Same problem as here :
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/solarisx86/message/12180
No solution yet ...
SMC server doesn't start at boot, and won't start manually with /etc/init.d/init.wbem start
starting it manually gives :
# export VIPER_HOME=/usr/sadm/lib/smc
# ./smcwbemserver -p 898 start
Starting Solaris Management Console server version 2.1.0.
endpoint created: :898
Solaris Management Console server exiting: internal initialization failed: Initialization failed for service com.sun.management.viper.services.Authorization.
Any idea?
I have a basic Solaris 10 setup, with Entire Collection selected.
My graphic card is not working so I had to install in text mode and access X remotely.I believe this is a fault in the crypto file that is mentioned in the Yahoo X86 posting, namely pkcs11_kernel.so. I have a possible workaround for this. Try looking at:
http://www.webmin.com
This is a free Web-based management tool that has most but not all of the functionality of the SMC. I tried downloading and installing the Solaris package from their download page, but this didn't work. What I eventually did was remove the package and download and install the generic Unix version, which was webmin-1.160.tar.gz as of when I downloaded it. The only gotchas to watch for are to run the setup.sh script and select Sun Solaris as the O/S, then select Solaris 9 as the version (they don't technically support 10 yet). I have been able to add users and groups and manage the disk without problems.

Configure DHCP Server in Solaris 10
Hi,
I am trying to configure my Solaris 10 as an DHCP server. I managed get it configured and assigning IP address to my client machines (Windows XPs). However, I can't figure out how to get the "Default Gateway" passed into the Windows XP. Here is what I have done so far:
# /usr/sbin/dhcpconfig -D -r SUNWfiles -p /var/dhcp
# /usr/sbin/dhcpconfig -N 192.168.1.0 -t 192.168.1.1
# pntadm -A 192.168.1.51 -m dns 192.168.1.0
But on the Windows XP clients, I get the right IP address, and netmask, but the default gateway is blank. How do I specify that in my DHCP server so that the default gateway gets sent to the XP clients?
Thanks.Get the apache server from www.sunfreeware.com and install it on your server.
The url will http://hostname-of-your-server
Go to apache.org to get apache documentation. -
How to integrate a Solaris x86 server on Sun Management Center ?
Hello people,
I want to integrate a Solaris x86 server on Sun Management Center platform.
If I'm not wrong, SunMC doesn't run for Solaris x86, server and client only as console with Java.
In speat of it, I try to install Sun Management Center 3.0 Agent for Solaris x86.
It seems to be ok, install packages, but when execute es-setup script, intents to create the following directory:
/opt/SUNWsymon/base/bin/sparc-sun-solaris2.8
I supose that in this directory, SunMC will install sparc binary files
At this point, I can't follow the installation and abort it.
Can anybody give me ideas to install and integrate my solaris x86 server on SunMC ?
ThanksHi Hisham,

Dear Gents,

successfully i could monitor the Sun Solaris Servers after i have installed the SMC agent on them.
my problem is that i could not install the SMC agent on Red Hat Linux. as i could not find an easy document or steps to do so.
could you guide please?If you still have a copy of your SunMC media around, the same ["es-inst"|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2215/command-line-1?l=en&a=view] program you use to install Solaris Agents should work on Linux as well. It autodetects OS type and will install Solaris packages or RPMs as appropriate.

From the Unix prompt enter oemapp console(for v9.x). If you are using earlier versions it is oemapp console (for starting the console) and oemapp dbastudio(for starting dba studio)
For starting OMS enter: oemctrl start oms.
Hope this helps

Solaris 10 SPARC DHCP Server causing disconnects every hour
I am using Solaris 10 SPARC (Netra X1) as a router (DHCP/NAT)
I'm running the built-in dhcp-server with the following in /etc/inet/dhcpsvc.conf
DAEMON_ENABLED=TRUE
RESOURCE=SUNWfiles
RUN_MODE=server
PATH=/var/dhcp
CONVER=1
HOSTS_RESOURCE=files
ICMP_VERIFY=false
INTERFACES=dmfe1
LOGGING_FACILITY=1
VERBOSE=TRUEI have made an entry for my MAC address
# pntadm -P 192.168.1.0 | grep 192.168.1.218
010026B9B29555 00 192.168.1.218 <MY IP> Zero UNKNOWNHowever, if I rely on DHCP I get disconnected for a few seconds every hour exactly. All my SSH connections drop and I get disconnected from any IRC server I am on.
If I set my client to a static IP this issue disappears, which leads me to believe it's DHCP who is the culprit here.
Does anyone have any suggestions? From the pntadm output "Zero" should mean the lease never expires, right?
ThanksA 64 bit VM is not necessarily faster than a 32 bit one. I remember at least on suggestion that it could be slower.
Make sure you use the -server option.
As a guess IBM isn't necessarily a slouch when it comes to Java. It might simply be that their VM was faster. Could have used a different dom library as well.
Could be an environment problem of course.
Profiling the application and the machine as well might provide information. -
Weblogic Server 9.2 MP 3 for Solaris x86
Does anyone know where I can download weblogic server 9.2 mp 3 for Solarix x86. I have spent my entire day looking for it in support.oracle.com (metalink) and oracle download pages but nothing has turned up so far.
You can always ask via support.
There is a download on edelivery.oracle.com. Select Oracle BEA then Solaris x86 32bit - then click on BEA WebLogic Media Pack for Sun Solaris x86 (x86, x86-64)
You'll see a 9.2 MP3 ISV download, I'm not sure if that's exactly the same as the normal one or if it's only for ISV's, you'd have to ask support. -
Windows 2003 DHCP server merge to Solaris 10

I have an old windows 2003 server with 100 DHCP clients that needs be be transported to Solaris so we can get rid of this Windows machine.
Is it possible to read the DHCP backupfile from windows2003 with Solaris?Troy H wrote:

Okay, more information:
Workstations that are imaged will receive SLP information as long as the
Zen agent hasn't been installed.(using latest Zen7SP1 Postpatch)
Once you install the Zen agent you will no longer receive SLP via DHCP.
Note that the Novell Client version can be 491 to 491 SP3.
However, if you rename the C:\windows\system32\novell\novdhcp.dll file,
you'll resume getting SLP info from DHCP.(TID 10093676)

Can I set two router IP on my solaris x86 server?
Hi ,
I want to make traffic balance on my office. Because we have two leased line.
I would build up NAT in the solaris x86.
Can I set two router ip in the solaris x86 server? And How to do it?
The traffic balance is work or not?
If that is not work, what can I do?
Thanks All ^_^
Andrew ChoiYes, you can use solaris x86 as a NAT box.
add another ethernet interface, and install
IP-filter, or sunscreen

Migration from Solaris Sparc server to Solaris x86
Hi ,
I would like to know.
Migration from SAP ECC6 , Oracle , Solaris Sparc to Ecc6, Oracle, Solaris x86 , Is this consider Heterogeneous or Homogeneous system copy?
Thanks.
Best Regards,
ck chaiSolaris on SPARC is a BIgEndian platform, Solaris on X86 is LittleEndian - so it's heterogeneous --> you need to use R3load to performa a migration - and you need to have a certified migration consultant on-site to do that migration (http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration --> FAQ).

Mounting a Solaris x86 CD/DVD from a remote Windows CD/DVD-ROM drive
Greetings, all.
Is it possible to mount a remote Windows CD/DVD-ROM drive? I have the Solaris 10x86 Companion Software DVD sitting in a CD/DVD-ROM drive that's installed on a Windows server on my network. It is shared-out (F:) and the two servers can ping each other. I've also confirmed the NFS services/daemons are running on the Solaris x86 machine. I've tried the following variations but, all have failed to produce successful results:

I've also tried mounting it at bootup by adding the appropriate entry in the /etc/vfstab file but, this does not work as well. I've tried Google'ing for an answer to my issue but, I haven't been able to find anything that applies directly to what I'm reporting. It's usually chatter about mounting from one UNIX server to another. Any advice from the community would be greatly appreciated.After three weeks, you deserve a reply. Windoze does
not natively support NFS.Also deserves a decent answer...
There are two ways to do this:
Install Microsoft's free "Windows Services for UNIX," which includes a Windows NFS server; or
Install the 'sharity' package (google for it); it provides Solaris systems the ability to mount Windows shares -
Oracle 8.1.5 Client/WLS/Solaris x86
has anyone been able to get Oracle's client 8.1.5 running on Solaris x86 in conjunction with WLS to talk to back-end Oracle? Any help would be greatly appreciated.thanks.
This will not work. We have not built the native libraries to work with
Solaris on Intel..
I suggest trying the platform independent type 4 JDBC driver available for
free from Oracle. It is supported (as is any JDBC driver) with WebLogic
Server. To download it:
Go to http://www.oracle.com and select the "Download" option.
From the resulting page, use the "Select Utility or Driver" dropdown to
select Oracle JDBC drivers
From the resulting page, scroll down a little (since SQLJ stuff appears at
the top).
Or, to go directly there:
