Solaris 10 X86 With Symbios 22801 is not detecting harddisk

HI
I have installed Solaris x86 on SUN FIRE V20z Machine. I have added additional Scsi card SYMBIOS 22801 before installation. At bios level I can see the disks getting intialised but at os level it is not.
I tried booting with fail safe ( 32 bit kernel) . At this level I can see the drives attached thru scsi card ( symbios)
How can can make it detect from 64bit OS?
IS there any patch / driver available to detect the drives.
Thanks

First of all, I'd like to say that despite not being
able to use my network card, view DVDs, use my sound
card or laser printer with Solaris 10, I am extremelySound Drives for just about anything are found here:
http://www.opensound.com/
Drivers for some less common or fairly new networking here:
http://homepage2.nifty.com/mrym3/taiyodo/eng/
DVDs, well, technically that's illegal in most countries without licensed software. You can thank the people behind software patents for that. However, I have played DVDs on my system, but it wasn't pretty getting it working, in the end I removed it and have relegated all DVD playback to that famous Toy OS since Surround Sound, etc. support is far better there.
10. If I ever learn enough assembler to write device
drivers for Solaris 10, I may put in my 2 cents as
far as helping out with h/w support as well.I don't know of any drivers written for modern operating systems in assembler, they're almost always written in C. Sometimes they may contain assembler, but that's not the guts of them.

Solaris 8 x86 w/ Seagate 410800N Drive - Size Detection Problem

I have a Dual PII-300Mhz computer w/ 786MB memory and a 4.5GB Wide Scsi (Seagate) and an 8.1GB Narrow Scsi (Seagate - 410800N) configuration.
I have installed Solaris 8 x86 and applied the "recommended patches". The system is working great EXCEPT for when I attempt to format the ST410800N hard drive.
The # of cylinders is suppose to be 4925, heads 27, sectors per track 133, etc...
Solaris is detecting only ~467 cylinders and 26 heads. I've tried to change the "TYPE" to one that I created and it seems to work for a few menu selections, but then when I try to partition the drive, it shows only ~467-470 cylinders. It shows 9 slices and only allows me modify up to #7. The SCSI ID for the drive is 4, which I'm not sure if this is something that Solaris is reserving for a Tape drive. I can change it to 1 or 2.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am new to using Solaris, but I'm enjoying it alot. I just would like to get this drive partitioned so that I can move "home" and to install Oracle 8.x
Thanks,
George

Thanks for all of the helpful responses. I figured out the problem.

IPhone 4 with IOS 6 did not detecting the public wi-fi network but able to connect with my home wireless

iphone 4 after install the iOS 6 wi-fi networks are not detecting on public spot but working on home network.What is the reason for this/ any settings?

Is the firmware in the router up to date?
See here for the latest for v2.2: http://homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/support/routers/WRT54G
Note: All these ideas are a bit lame since you say that some iPhone 5s are connecting OK and they running the same iOS level 6.1 and, i think, have the same Broadcom WiFi chip BCM4334.
All devices are running iOS 6.1 right not 6.0.1, or 6.0.2?
You might want to try your iPad mini on some other WiFi networks to see how it fares there.

VMWare Not detecting Harddisk

Dear All,
I am new to VMWare environment.
I installed the VMWare on my local Vista OS.
Now when I am trying to create a new VMWare Virtual Machine by clicking the "Create Virtual Machines" under Virtual Machines tab, the VMWare is not detecting the Harddisk size on my PC.
Please find the attachment "VMware.jpg" & "VMware2.jpg" to view the issue I am facing.
Much Appreciate your help on this one.
Thanks,
Madhu K.

Hi Madhu,
The issue could be that ur ESX server cannot yet see the disks.
Try scannning the storage from the Configuration menu -> Storage Adapters -> Rescan

The dreaded battery with red line (battery not detected)

I've tried everything I can find to fix this problem... a little while ago, I was writing a text message when my 8900 decided to reboot. When it came back, all that was on the screen (and all I've seen since) is the battery with a red line through it. I've done battery pulls, charded for more than a day using both USB and directly into a wall... I tried to wipe and reinstall but have been unable to complete the procedure (symbol reappears part way through).... anyone out there have anything else I can try? Here is a bit more about the attempt to wipe and reinstall the OS:
Downloaded and ran JL_Cmder, was unsuccesful, it wouldn't connect to the phone. Ran AppLoader from command prompt, finally able to get it to connect to the phone by unpluging from the usb, removing and replacing the battery and plugging back in immediately as the red light came on. Got through removal of applications and instal oif JVM and system files, on the step where it waits for the device to initialize, it stops and the battery/line comes back on the screen....
any further thoughts/advice are greatly apprecaited.
Thanks
Chris

Mine is doing the exact same thing...We are not the only users who have run into this SAME problem. I have searched everywhere for a solution. I've tried JL, BBsak, DM, and crackmem. Nothing works...can't seem to connect
Berries are good for you!

TD340 Thinkserver Raid 500 Upgrade with Raid 5 key not detected

Hello,
I have just purchased the TD340 and the Thinkserver Raid 500 Upgrade and Upgrade key. I am trying to set this up but it is not being seen by the bios and/or the thinkserver easysetup cd. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!

I just went through the same thing. If you only have 1 CPU, only PCI slots 1, 2 and 5 are functional. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15hn82uf-p0

No /dev/lp? on COMPAQ Proliant ML370 with Solaris 8 x86 10/00

Dear Sir,
I have a problem about the /dev/lp? port in Solaris 8 x86 with COMPAQ Proliant ML370. I have seen in the boot interpreter it has detected a parallel port
device isa/lp@1...., but after I boot -r to start Solaris 8
OS it don't make any /dev/lp? or /devices/isa/lp*... and if
I mknod /dev/lp? myself it cannot print out ( I use cat /etc/hosts >> /dev/lp1, /dev/lp1 major=83 minor=1 ) It say "cannot create". I wonder why this happens, If I install this Solaris 8 x86 on other PC model. It has /dev/lp1 and can print out successfully. I try many ways such as: upgrade latest ROMPAQ BIOS firmware,
install lp driver patch set, install acpi patch. But still don't work. I found that serial ports (asy) which are ACPI is working because I can redirect console to serial port (asy).
Do anyone have the idea to solve or track down this problems. Thanks a lot...

Check out the HP Compaq web site and you shuld be able to find the Solaris drivers that are needed. http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/download/19340.html

Solaris 10 x86 w/ Matrox G450 dual head and xinerama

I have solaris 10 x86 with matrox g450 dual head and x.org x-server. The problem is to get xinerama work. When xinerama isn't enabled, two different desktops work well - or, they work, but they are pretty useless because I can't move windows between them. So, I have to enable xinerama, but it seems, that neither JDS/Gnome nor CDE haven't been built including support for xinerama.
When I enable xinerama, X.org-x-server starts fine and there's dtlogin. When I login and it passes execution to gnome, it fails and x-server restarts. Same with CDE. But if I put 'exec /opt/sfw/bin/xterm to my .dtprofile', it starts ok and I can do some testing..
% dtwm
X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 149 (XINERAMA)

Serial number of failed request: 18

% gtk-demo
The program 'gtk-demo' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
(Details: serial 13 error_code 3 request_code 149 minor_code 2)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line<br />
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

If I start /opt/sfw/bin/fvwm2, it works fine too, so the problem seems to be gtk/glib/gnome and CDE. One odd thing is that, normal CDE-programs, like dtterm, dtcm, dtcalc etc. works fine. But dtwm doesn't work in xinerama mode.
So, would anyone have any suggestion what could I do? Do I have to recompile my own GNOME, or could Sun do something to the next Solaris 10 update? (As far as I understood, current Solaris 10 release doesn't include zfs yet, so there will be update soon, I think)

Hello,
I'm also using a g450.
Now I'm trying for 5 days to get it work with xinerama under Xorg and/or
Xsun.
Can anybody tell me how to get it work ?
I would like to see a working xorg.conf.
(I don't know how to configure 2 screens for Xsun. Mybe someone can give my his configuration file(s) ?)
Thanks to all who will help me !!!
p.s. here is my latest attempt of xorg.conf which does not provide xinerama for me:

Cloning from solaris 10 sparc to solaris 10 x86

Hi,
We would like to know if it is possible to clone from production instance solaris 10 sparc to test instance solaris 10 x86 (intel) in 11.5.10CU2.
And if yes or no is it possible in R12.1.2.
Thanks
Brice Guillard

Hi,
Is it possible to have the first node on solaris 10 x86 with the database and the other on solaris 10 sparc ?Not possible as this OS is not certified.
What happen with rapid clone if we clone the production instance full sparc to a test instance with solaris 10 x86 on the database and the application server on x86.Rapid Clone will not work on this target OS because it is not supported.

Hussein

Dynamic binary core dumped on solaris 10 x86 platform !!!!

Hi,
I have problem with dynamic binary compiled on solaris 10 x86 with sun studio 10, when i tryed to start this binary i have "illegal instruction (core dumped)".
But when i generate a static binary, there is NO PROBLEM! the binary start normally!
also when i compiled the binary, there is no problem, the compilation is normally terminated in both case (static and dynamic)!
I would be most grateful for any response.
Best Regards,
Skander

Hi,
Yes - that's a little confusing; Oracle Collaboration Suite 10g is certified on a 64b Solaris SPARC. (The story behind the 32b is a long one, but it's related to client libraries vs. database servers and how 32b/64b liibraries are distinguished).
To answer your real question, though, No - it's not supported on Solaris x86.

Solaris 10 x86 stable on Intel Xeon Woodcrest CPUs?

We are looking at deploying Solaris 10 x86 for a new mail server project (using ZFS as the FS). In the past, we've purchased mostly Dell PowerEdge servers, and this will be our first foray into Solaris. I'm looking at using a HP Server for this project, and would like to use one of the new models that has the Intel Xeon 51xx "Woodcrest" family of CPUs. I see that there is a kernel patch available that enhances the stability of Solaris under this platform, and wanted to hear experiences from others as to the stability of Solaris 10 x86 with the Woodcrest Xeon's.
TIA.

FYI, I was able to install a copy of Solaris 10 x86 8/07 on my GX150.
I guess there is some changes in the Kernel between releases that have caused the incompatibility.

Hard disk not detected- HP630 laptop

my HP630 just froze and comes up with one message, HDD not detected. I want to save all photos (data ) on the laptop if possible, so dont want to re-install Windows from CD booting without having an experts advice. if i conduct any tests (such as testing what is wrong with the hard disk or the state of he hard disc) the test freezes midway.Tried booting through USB, but the BIOS does not have that option. Please can anyone help? Many thanks.
if any more information is needed please let me know

Hi,
I would suggest removing the HDD from the notebook, place it in an external caddy - an example is on the link below - connect this to another PC and see if you can access and back-up your files.

KDE battery monitor not detecting laptop battery

I am using KDE on my Dell XPS laptop. The default battery monitor that comes with KDE installation is not detecting the laptop battery. It is showing "Battery: Not Present". Because of this I am unaware about the time remaining on my battery. Any solutions please?

Have you tried rebooting *twice*? I've seen this issue but I've always resolved it by rebooting and then rebooting again. (The system goes rather insane on the first reboot and I always think either my hardware is completely screwed or my install of Arch is twisted far beyond the point of insanity. But then on the second boot, it calms down, finds the hardware and carries on quite happily. I've no idea why.)
