SOLARIS 2.6 logical IP limit

good day! i hope you guys can help me out with my problem... i need it coz i next week is my deadline... i'm researching about the maximum number of logical IPs can Solaris 2.6 (SunOS 5.2) support... in Solaris 2.5.1 i can only add 255 logical IPs using the "ifconfig" command but i need 2,000 of it and even more... is there a way to modify these system parameter? pls show me how if there is any... thanks in advance and more power...

Solaris 2.4, 2.5 and 2.5.1 is limited to 255 logical addresses per interface.
Solaris 2.6 is can go as high as 8191, depending on the value of ip_addrs_per_if.
eq. ndd -set /dev/ip ip_addrs_per_if <1-8192>

Set up standard input in solaris to avoid 256 characters limit.

I do hava a Console command line application in java, the application run in Solaris. I run the program in a ksh script and the maxumin line size i can read is 256 characters. How can i set up the standard input to avoid this limitation. I need no limit in the input command line as can have command longer that 5000 characters.
How to reproduce the scenario.
public static void main(String[] args)
System.in.read()
Is there any way i can set up or initialize the standard input to avoid this limitation?
Thanks in advance.

This is a limitation of the terminal driver, so even if the shell can accept more characters, the terminal in front of the shell will stick to the limit defined by MAX_CANON. There are two ways to get around this problem:
1. Put the terminal into raw mode: "stty raw -echo"
or
2. Introduce explicit backslash-newline sequences into the input stream. The terminal will trigger on the newline, but the backslash will tell the shell to keep looking for the logical end of the input.

Recommendations - Oracle RAC 10g on Solaris 10 Containers Logical/Local..

Dear Oracle Experts et all
I have a couple of questions for Oracle 10g RAC implementation on Solaris and seek your advice. we are attempting to implement oracle 10g RAC on Solaris OS and SPARC Platform.
1 We are wondering if Oracle 10g RAC could be implemented on Solaris Local/Logical Containers? I was assuming that Oracle will always link it self with OS binaries and Libraries while S/W installation and hence will need an OS image/Root Disk over which it could go. However, in containers, I assume we have a single solaris installation and configuration which will thus be shared to the containers which will be further configured in it. In such situations how does Oracle instalation proceed? Do I need to look at a scenario where, the global Container/Zone will have Oracle install and this image be shared across to zones/containers accordingly? If it is so, what all filesystems from OS will need to be shared across to these zones/containers?
Additionally, even if this approach is supported, is it a recommended approach? I am unsure about the stability and functionality of Oracle in such cases and am not able to completly conceptualize. However, I assume there could be certain items which needs to be approprietly taken care off. It will help if you could share observations from your experiences.
2 The idea of RAC we are looking at is to have multiple Oracle Installations on top of native clustering solution say veritas clusters/Sun Clusters. Do we still need to have Oracle Cluster solution Clusterware (ORACRS) on top of this to achieve Oracle Clustering? Will I be able to install Oracle as a standalone installation on top of native clustering solution say veritas clusters/Sun Clusters?
Our requirement is to have the above mentioned multiple Oracle installations spread across two (2) seperate H/W platforms,say Node A and Node B, and configure our Cluster Solution to behave as active-passive across Node A and Node B. In other words, I will configure Clustering Solution like VRTS/SunCluster in Active-Passive, then have 3 Oracle installations on Node A, another 3 on Node B. I will configure one database each for each of these Oracle S/W installation (with an idea not to have Clusterware between clustering solution VRTS/SunCluster and Oracle installation, if it works). Now I will run 3 databases thus on each of these nodes. If any downtime happens on any one of the nodes, say Node A, I will fail all oracle databases and S/W accordingly to the alternate available node, Node B in this case, using native clustering solution and I will want the database to behave as it was behaving earlier, on Node A. I am not sure though if I will be able to bring the database up on Node B when resources in OS perspective are failed over.
we want to use Oracle 10g RAC Release 2 EE on Solaris 10 OS latest/one before the latest release.
Please share your thoughts.
Regards!

1 We are wondering if Oracle 10g RAC could be implemented on Solaris Local/Logical Containers? My understanding is that RAC in a Zone (Container) is not supported by Oracle, and will not work anyway. Regardless of installation, RAC needs to do cluster level stuff about the cluster configuration, changing network addresses dynamically, and sending guaranteed messages over the cluster interconnect. None of this stuff can be done in a Local Zone in Solaris, because Local Zones have fewer permissions that the Global Zone. This is part of the design of Solaris Zones, and nothing to do with how Oracle RAC itself works on them.
This is all down to the security model of Zones, and Local Zones lack the ability to do certain things, to stop them reconfiguring themselves and impacting other Zones. Hence RAC cannot do dynamic cluster reconfiguration in a Local Zone, such as changing virtual network addresses when a node fails.
My understanding is that RAC just cannot work in a Local Zone. This was certainly true 5 years ago (mid 2005), and was a result of the inherent design and implementation of Zones in Solaris. Things may have changed, so check the Solaris documentation, and check if Oracle RAC is supported in Local Zones. However, as I said, this limitation was inherent in the design of Zones, so I do not see how Sun could possibly have changed it so that RAC would work in a Local Zone.
To me, your only option is the Global Zone. Which pretty much destroys the argument for having Zones on a Solaris system, unless you can host other non-Oracle application on the other Zones.
2 The idea of RAC we are looking at is to have multiple Oracle Installations on top of native clustering solution say veritas clusters/Sun Clusters. Do we still need to have Oracle Cluster solution Clusterware (ORACRS) on top of this to achieve Oracle Clustering? Will I be able to install Oracle as a standalone installation on top of native clustering solution say veritas clusters/Sun Clusters?I am not sure the term 'native' is correct. All 'Cluster' software is low level, and has components that run within the operating system. Whether this is Sun Cluster, Veritas Cluster Server, or Oracle Clusterware. They are all as 'native' to Solaris as each other. They all perform the same function for Oracle RAC around Cluster management - which nodes are members of the cluster, heartbeats between nodes, reliable fast message delivery, etc.
You only need one piece of Cluster software. So pick one and use it. If you use the Sun or Veritas cluster products, then you do not need the Oracle Clusterware software. But I would use it, because it is free (included with RAC), is from Oracle themselves and so guaranteed to work, is fully supported, and is one less third party product to deal with. Having an all Oracle software stack makes things simpler and more reliable, as far as I am concerned. You can be sure that Oracle will have fully tested RAC on their own Clusterware, and be able to replicate any issues in their own support environments.
Officially the Sun and Veritas products will work and are supported. But when you get a problem with your Cluster environment, who are you going to call? You really want to avoid "finger pointing" when you have a problem, with each vendor blaming the cause of the problem on another vendor. Using an all Oracle stack is simpler, and ensures Oracle will "own" all your support problems.
Also future upgrades between versions will be simpler, as Oracle will release all their software together, and have tested it together. When using third party Cluster software, you have to wait for all vendors to release new versions of their own software, and then wait again while it is tested against all the different third party software that runs on it. I have heard of customers stuck on old versions of certain cluster products, who cannot upgrade because there are no compatible combinations in the support matrices between the cluster product and Oracle database versions.
I will configure Clustering Solution like VRTS/SunCluster in Active-Passive, then have 3 Oracle installations on Node A, another 3 on Node B. As I said before, these 3 Oracle installations will actually all be on the same Global Zone, because RAC will not go into Local Zones.

Solaris 9/10 How to limit the number of SSH connexion(s) to a server?

Hi team
Anybody knows how should I proceed if I want to limit the number of simultanous SSH connexion on my server to 3 for example?
I have tried to edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and put line:
# The maximum number of concurrent unauthenticated connections to sshd.
# start:rate:full see sshd(1) for more information.
# The default is 10 unauthenticated clients.
MaxStartups 3:30:60
INSTEAD OF
MaxStartups 10:30:60
It does not work as more than 3 users are able to log in
Any clue?
Thanks in advance

$ man sshd_config
     MaxStartups
             Specifies the maximum number of concurrent unauthenticated con-
             nections to the SSH daemon.This configuration parameter only controls how many SSHd connections are allowed to be waiting around for authentication. Not how many simultaneous connections there can be overall. Unless you get a burst of connections, this parameter will have no effect.
There is no SSH parameter that will do what you want. It's possible there's a PAM module out there that would deny authentication if some number of established sessions appear to be running, but I'm not familiar with any in particular.

Limit order items to be sent back to sourcing on deletion

Hi all,
We are on SRM 7.1 Extended classic.
Can anyone confirm if the limitatin on the LIMIT orders not being sent back to SOURCING even after the PO items are deleted is stilll valid in SRM 7.1.???
Also we want to use LIMIT orders instead of service orders in SRM 7 as there are seevral issues when users try creating carts with the SERVICE HIERARCHY.To avoid the manual errors,we would like to use limit orders in SRM and then if required when the PO items are deletd in SRM the items should be sent back to sourcing.
If the limitation for the LIMIT orders items still hold true for SRM 7,then is there a way or enhancement to enable the sending of limit orders back to sourcing once the items are deleted in the PO in SRM?
I know the report responsible for snding items back to sourcing is BBP_GET_STATUS_2 and CLEAN_REQREQ_UP but is there a way we can handle the sendng of the PO items back to sourcing base don some custom logic for limit orders or for that matter any type of PO created in SRM?
Pls advise.

The note 1247922 is for EXTERNAL requirements/Purchase requsitions in ECC backend system and is not what I'm looking for.
Neverthless,I will create an OSS message with SAP and check if tehre is any enhancmenet available for sending limit items back to sourcing on PO deletion.Will update the thread accordingly
Thanks for the help.

Zones or Logical Domains

Hello,
If I have an Enterprise T5120 server, would I be better off employing solaris zones or logical domains? I took a long break from this area of expertise and find myself in the wonderful world of virtualization!
Also, if you have any recommendations on books, whitepapers, other documentation, etc., that I can read on both subjects, I would be very appreciative.
Thank you for you assistance.

Well, you could use both :)
did you see this article? I find it rather good:

Passing Dimension Members to Logic Task in SSIS

I have a package that pulls data from a source and loads it into BPC. As a part of the package, if data is loaded into prior periods (I identify this through a query and put the prior periods and accounts into variables), we then need to run a piece of script logic that rolls forward the necessary balances based on the time periods and the accounts included. Right now, the package generates an email and includes an expression noting the prior time periods and accounts, and and then the users go and manually run the logic for the time periods and accounts specified in that notification email. However, we want to automate that step at the end of the package. What is the best way to pass the time period and account variables into script logic to limit the scope to just those accounts and the time periods specified?

Thanks Roberto. That certainly is an option. I can't define the appropriate accounts and time periods through any BPC tables, so I believe that I would need set a Property, something like "RunLogic", in the mbrTime and mbrAccount tables using a query in an Execute SQL task first, and then in the script logic use the Select statements to set a variable like you mentioned, and then use that variable to define the scope in the XDIM_MEMEBERSET statements.
But, is this the best, cleanest way to do this? Given that the Logic task was built for SSIS, it seems to me that there would be a direct way to simply define the scope in the task using an expression and/or variables, or through ModifyScript. Is there a way to simply pass the variables through and leverage a dynamic constant or something else that is already built into BPC?

Can I install a 200GB HD into my G4 Quicksilver?

I have a 933MHz G4 Quicksilver with a 60GB PATA drive. I replaced the drive today with a Maxtor 200GB Ultra ATA/133 drive. But my Mac only has Ultra ATA/66 and I am worried that my drive may crash one day because I have exceeded the 128GB limit. But when I initialize the drive it shows 189GB formatted and the 'Verify Disk' command in the Disk Utility did not return any errors and the computer seems to be working fine. Will the drive just stop when I reach the 128GB limit or will it actually crash and destroy all my data? Would it be better if I partitioned it with two 100GB partitions instead? TIA - Eric

Eric, excuse me for not getting back to you earlier, and for not being more precise in my answer, but no your computer will not crash when you exceed the 128 limit, and no it will not stop at 128. I meant if your boot Rom was any other version, it does not have such support and has the drive size limitation. Some QS Macs have the support, some don't. The Boot ROM version is the key to finding out. But yours does support the larger HD and that is why you are able to see the entire drive, unlike Macofthefuture he was only able to format the first 128 because he does have the logic board limit. My only explanation is maybe that you have a later 2002 release date.
With that said, the ATA card will not give you more HD space or prevent any future crashes or data destruction.
You can also do a search of "Quicksilver hard drive limitation" above because there have been other like you that have posted here who are using larger HDs in QS without any third party support. Read here.

Heinz,
You may investigate logic using UNIONs and a manual tabular form.
Something like:
--get all records above new row
select apex_item... column1
,apex_item... column2
from yourtable
where <logic to limit rows above new record>
union
--get the new row
select apex_item... column1
,apex_item... column2
from dual
where :REQUEST = 'ADDROW'
union
--get every row not in the top query
select apex_item... column1
,apex_item... column2
from yourtable
where <logic to pull all records not pulled above new record>
For this to work you'll need to add your own "Add Row" button and associate it with a branch. Notice the select between the two unions in the above query is a select against dual. This will be your new record when pressing your "Add Row" button (:REQUEST = 'ADDROW').
The following how-to link is a reference for some of the logic you'll need when creating a manual tabular form.

Grub doesn't load, goes straight to Vista

I am not new to Arch but have never dual-booted Windows and Linux before. I shrunk Vista to 30 GB (not without hassle, mind you, and many many defrags) and set up Arch on other partitions. This (according to cfdisk) is my current setup:
Name Flags Part Type FS Type [Label] Size (MB)
Unusable 1.05*
sda1 Boot Primary Unknown (27) 6594.50*
sda2 Primary NTFS [^C] 31471.95*
sda3 Primary Linux ext3 101442.38*
sda5 Logical Linux swap / Solaris 2048.10*
Logical Free Space 18481.31*
I don't know exactly what /dev/sda1 IS, but I think it's something Windows is using. And I don't know why I have 1.5 MB of free space at the start of the drive... I just ignored it. Regardless, I installed Grub onto /dev/sda3. Rebooting takes me straight to Vista with no Grub at all. That's why I thought I had erred. If so, where should I install Grub, and how can I erase it from the MBR of /dev/sda3 properly?
>.< Darn dual-booting.

Wow that ftp install CD chroot was sure buggy for me. First df didn't work, then everything became read-only, and then it wouldn't let me unmount my hard drive, even though I made sure I wasn't using it. @_@ Regardless, grub seems to have installed correctly. It lets me go into both Arch and Vista without problem. Then, is there an easy way to erase the grub I'm presuming I also accidentally installed on /dev/sda3? XD
(Sorry for the stupid question, I've honestly never dual-booted before. My PC downstairs is pure Gentoo and nothing else).

Audio playback stops short

Has anyone had problems with audio playback in a previewed or published presentation where the playback stop short and advanced to the next slide?

Brian,
The fact that this mp3 is about the same size as a standard 16 bit/44.1k stereo file of a 3 or 4 minute song, indicates to me that it's an extremely long file.
I'm willing to bet you have run into the measure limit within a Logic song. It's 2000 something (can't remember it exactly).
The standard work around is to drop Logic's tempo to something really slow, thus allowing the larger file to be able to play within the Logic song limit.
See if that's it...

Fixed No of rows in the table

Hi,
I have the below xml structure :-
CTRLS
CTRL
PYTO
STMENTS
STMENT ( company name , company address)
POS ( po number , po balance amt)
INVs
INv ( invoice number , invoice amount , invoice type )
Every CTRLS will have multiple CTRL and every CTRL record represents a invoice record for a customer so it has to go on a new page. Also, each CTRL will have only 1 PYTO.
STMENTS represents multiple companies for a customer and every company will have multiple POS and each POS will have mutiple invoices.
I have created a rtf wherein CTRL , PYTO is the header and have a single table which will have all the fields from STMENT, POS and INV and i want to restrict the no of rows per page to 36. I saw the example on the blog http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/newsItems/departments/templates/2007/03/27#a211 but it has only a single detail group g_invoice_lines in the table and in my case i have multiple groups in the table.
Can anybody help me out with this.
Thanks.

So are your groups as listed -
STMTS - group by Company
POS - group by PO number
INVS - group by invoice number
and then each invoice should have a fixed row setting, ie 36 in your case. If you understand the blog code you can certainly use the same logic to limit the row numbers.
I would like to mention a simpler method which may work in your case too - you need to create one more grouping, this is grouping by expression and make sure you insert this code using MS Word text form fields.
<xsl:variable name="lpp" select="number(36)"/>
<?for-each-group:current-group();floor((position() - 1) div $lpp)?><?if:position()!=1?><xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:attribute><?end if?>
----your content ---
<?end for-each-group?>

Maximum no of tables allowed ...

How many Tables we can use in a join in Oracle 9i
thanx in advance
George Bose

I don't know ... At least it is not documented as a logical database limit.
The Reference document only says about SQL subqueries:
Maximum levels of subqueries in a SQL statement:
- Unlimited in the FROM clause of the top-level query
- 255 subqueries in the WHERE clause
and
The limit on how long a SQL statement can be depends on many factors, including database configuration, disk space, and memory

Insert a new record in the middle of a tabular form

Hi,
I have a tabular form.
Pressing "Add Row" button opens a new, empty row at the bottom of the page or - if I use pagination - jumps to the page with the last record and creates a new record there.
Is it possible to open a new line in the middle of the page ?
I mean: if I have 25 records, I am on the first page (records 1-10) and the cursor is in a field of the second record and I press the "Add Row" button there should be a new, empty second line with old second record in the third line,... the old ninth record now in line 10 and disappeared record ten ?
Any idea ?
Thanks,
Heinz
