Solaris Partition Management

Hello all,
How can we allocate additional hard disk space to a partition (which has been existing) without deleting it.
eg:- I have 6.00GBs space allocated for my "/" directory. I want to increase the size by 10.00GBs. How can I do it?. Please help me out.
Regards,
SAJAN

Essentially, you can't.
If its an option, reinstall the machine from scratch with more reasonable partition sizes.
Its unfortunate that the default partition sizes are ludicrous and have been for a long time.
If thats not an option, things get trickier.
It is possible to mirror onto a larger disk, then expand the partition.
But you have to know what your doing.
You could create a separate partition for something like /opt or /var, copy stuff across then mount it back in.
But doing it for /var is tricky.

How do you change volume permissions with Solaris Volume Manager?

(Previously posted in "Talk to the Sysop" - no replies)
I'm trying to set up Solaris 9 to run Oracle on raw partitions. I have my design nailed down and I have built all the raw partitions I need as soft partitions on top of RAID 1 volumes. All this is built using Solaris Volume Manager (SVM).
However, all the partitions are still owned by root. Before I can create my Oracle database, I need to change the owner of the Oracle partitions to oracle:oinstall. The only reference I found telling me how to do this was in a Sun Blueprint and it essentially said "You can't change volume permissions directly or permanently using SVM and chown will only remain effective until the next reboot. To make the changes permanent, you must modify /etc/minor_perm". Unfortunately, I can't find an example of how to do this anywhere and the online man pages are not particularly helpful (at least not to me).
I'd appreciate a quick pointer, either to a good online resource or, even better, a simple example. For background, the volumes Oracle needs to own are:
/dev/md/rdsk/d101-109
/dev/md/rdsk/d201-203
/dev/md/rdsk/d301-303
/dev/md/rdsk/d401-403
/dev/md/rdsk/d501-505
I provide this information because I'd like to assign some, but not all, of the devices under /dev/md/rdsk to the oracle user and I was hoping some smart person out there could illustrate an approach using simle regular expressions, at which I'm horribly poor.
Thanks in advance,
Adrian

Ron, I feel your pain. I just came from an HTC also and a lot of stuff with this iPhone is bugging the crap out of me. Who makes a phone where you can't adjust the ringer and alert volumes independently? Instead, I have to adjust the alert volume when it is active. C'mon guys. Get with the program. You won a bunch of Android users over with the 4S, but you're going to chase us all back when we're done with our contract. Frustrating.

How Solaris Volume Manager sync submirrors

HI Gurus,
I have a question on how Solaris volume manager (SVM) does re-synchronization (in raid 1). In another word, in case of one submirror was modified during boot process, how SVM detects it and how SVM validate which sumirror is gold.
One scenario I ran into: We had a software installed, this software updated /etc/name_to_sysnum which conflicts with new Solaris 10 release. So the system could not boot any more (not even to single user mode) after software installed. This box had root disk mirrored. To fix this, we boot from CDROM and mounted 1st mirror drive root partition (c0t0d0s0) and remove the bad entry in /etc/system (we did not break the mirror to make the changes). Then the box was able to boot up. After server was up, it was found /etc/system was rolled back with bad entries. Apparently it was synced back from 2nd mirror. So now the question is how SVM decides which submirror is invalid and should be re-sync from good submirror?
2nd scenario I saw: someone accidently added one root file system submirror into zone as a file system. But during zone installation, system got panic and rebooted. During reboot, system kept crashing. We managed to boot from network, break the mirror (update /etc/vfstab and /etc/system) and finally was able to boot the system. So in case one submirror was accidently accessed, how does SVM protect data and will the corrupted data written to disk slice synced to good submirror?
Please share your thoughts and point me with some good references. I could not find related info in SVM doc.
Thanks,
Wei

SVM doesnt "sync" disks ie copy data from one disk to another except in the case when your first setting up a mirror. Or your replacing a disk etc.
Those are circumstances when it realises the disks are out of sync.
Once it has a mirrored pair, it will keep them in sync since all writes will go to both sides.
And reads take alternate blocks from both disks.
So if the the two sides of a mirror have gotten out of sync, you will see strange results as half your content will come from one and half your content will come from the other. Even inside a single file, assuming the file is bigger than the stripe size.
So anything writing to one side of the mirror outside of SVM's control will corrupt things. And SVM has no mechanisms for detecting this and "fixing" things up.
So its vital to break the mirror if your going to be writing to the disk outside of SVM control.
If your brave and the amount of changes is small, you can try to edit both sides of the mirror.
But you have to remember that SVM works at the block level, not the filesystem level.
So if you do anything to make the two sides even minorly different. Even something as miror as update 2 files in a different order.
Then the layout of blocks on the disks in the 2 halves could be different. And your're screwed.
So don't do it on any system you care about. Its really easy to make a mistake and the consequences are usually catastrophic.
When in doubt break the mirrors. Its the only safe way.

Any help and/or links to information for proper setup of mirroring when using Solaris Volume Manager would be appreciated. I should mention that the system also uses Veritas Volume Manager 4.1, but only Solaris Volume Manager is in control of the mirroring.

Solaris Volume Manager Enhanced Storage BUG?

All of our 64 bi sparc machines from solaris 8 and up used the Solstise Disk Suite...now solaris volume manager. The default solaris 10 install installs the command line metadb and other tools. I did formerly enjoy the metatool command for configuring the disk with GUI. I start the Management Console then I select Enhanced Storage and the Management Console just hangs. Is this because something is missing from my path. Or do I need to install more packages? If so what are these packages and where can I get them. I am also looking for the old versions of metatool for solaris 8 and 9 and ideas where I could find these?

Solaris Volume manager

Hi,
Hi,
We are in process of developing a backup utility (CLI) using the Raid manager (Firmware operating at device level).
Requirement
When the user gives a mount point for backup
-     Get the disk information that is mounted at the given mount point, if the mount point is for a metadevice then get all the disks under that metadevice.
-     Execute the Raid manager command for disk level copying for the disks that are mounted (Primary disk) to the other disk (secondary disk), which also can be under a metadevice.
-     Assign a backup ID, used for restoring the same when user wants
Problem
When a disk level copy operation is performed from a primary volume to a secondary volume which are configured by SVM, is there any way in which it is possible to configure the secondary (which now has the same data of primary) under SVM without any loss of data?

A new feature of Solaris Volume Manager will provide the ability to import DiskSets. It should be available in a latter update release of Solaris 9.

During the OS installation phase while jumpstarting, the output is as follows for Solaris Volume Manager (see below).

Unfortunately, this is a bug in the Sun jumpstart process.
You will have to install the same packages in a postinstall phase.
This bug has been there for years.
It is fixed in the latest Solaris 9 cdroms dated 09/04.
I know of no other fix except the latest cdroms.
It is also fixed in Solaris 10.
Solaris 8 even the most recent cdroms have the bug.
This bug only appears in a jumpstart. It works fine in a cdrom install. I haven't investigated why the jumpstart from a jumpstart server fails, but installing the package in a postinstall phase works.
I recommend that you download the latest Solaris 9 cdroms if it is Solaris 9 that is having the problem. For Solaris 8, postinstall phase is your only option.
I don't remember this bug in Solaris 7.

Partition Manager is creating more than double number of partitions .

Dear Team,
I am facing a very weird scenario .
For one of my product , one of the section is the Partition Manager executing for the Tables . Now I am facing a problem and it is really getting difficult for me to get to the root cause and thus posting in the forum ...
I am having two Linux systems , in one of the system, installation of the product goes fine , and partition manager is doing the partition as intended .
In another Linux lab , ( with some extra application installed ) , the same product is failing to install , and the problem is Partition Manager is doing the partition more than double as compared to first Lab and because of this it ends up using all the space in the system .
My Concern is do we have any global setting for this Partition Manager in the Oracle Database , and because of this I am seeing the difference in this 2 labs ..I will be really thankful for any of the inputs and suggestion ...
With Very Best Regards,
Shail...

Hello Justin,
First of all thanks a lot for your patience ... :) , in looking into my problem ..
But I guess it is using Oracle partitioning Concept only...I dont think , my product is using the third party partition tool ( I will recheck this once to confirm )
What I understand is that , if for any table the number of partitions is almost thrice in one system as compared to other , then it will end up consuming more space for the table in the system where it is creating more number of partitions ...
I guess memory usage for any table also depends on the number of partitions ( Please do correct me if I am wrong here ) , if more number of partitions are there then more memory will be consumed , I guess..With Very Best Regards,
Shail

FYI: EASEUS Partition Manager Professional 64 and 32-bit

I recently saw this press release and thought it might be something of interest to this forum.
It is an inexpensive partition manager for Windows, both 64 and 32-bit.
It claims to be able to manage partition sizes and such on the fly. Naturally I would not do this without a backup, but here, FWIW is the link:
http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=prnw.20090211.LA69582&show_article=1&cat num=7
Part of their blurb is here:
EASEUS Partition Manager 3.0 Professional Edition works perfectly with Windows 2000/XP/Vista 32 and 64 bit systems on one machine - single licensed. Hardware RAID is also supported. This excellent partition tool lets you enjoy a wide range of powerful features: Resize and Move partitions without destroying any data, Copy Partition and Copy Disk to protect data; Create, Delete and Format partitions with simple steps, Hide and Unhide partitions, etc. Moreover, you are also able to create a bootable CD/DVD to manage 64-bit Windows partitions when there is a boot failure caused by virus or any other unexpected occurrence.

Solaris Patch Manager gets status:302 behind Proxy

Hi Colleagues,
I am trying to get Solaris Patch Manager on my Solaris 8 up and running.
But if I say "smpatch analyze", the smpatch just reports a "Response code was 302" I think this means something like: "temporary moved".
I think my problem is, that the proxy doesn't follow the moved object.
Can anybody tell me where I can manualy download the detectors.jar and patchdb.zip?

Any news on this posting? I'm trying to do the same thing, as I dont want to use a caching proxy to download patches, I just want to use
a local source to perform analysis, downloads, and updates.
Cheers.

Solaris volume manager and RPC

I'm trying to run as few services as possible? Does anybody know if there are dependencies between Solaris Volume Manager (formerly DiskSuite) and rpc? I know that Solaris Volume Manager uses something called rpc.metamhd, but I'm not sure if this requires the full blown rpc.
thanks...

Monitoring services in zones with Solaris container Manager

I need to know how to Manage Solaris services (SMF) in sparse zone with Solaris container manager.
I have navigated all the documentation and I have not found any clue.
I installed the Sun management center (SMC) server on a server box and the agents on others. I can manage the SMF of the global zone by drilling down via the console GUI. But having access to the container manager, I have to go via https connection. And drilling down on the zone did not reveal that SMF can be monitored.
Please if you have any idea, share it with me.

Hi,
check these:
- Version of webserver latest is 3.1
# smcwebserver -V
- check webconsole is started and running
# smcwebserver status
Sun Java(TM) Web Console is running
# svcs webconsole
STATE STIME FMRI
online 19:38:06 svc:/system/webconsole:console
# svcs -pl webconsole
fmri svc:/system/webconsole:console
name java web console
enabled true
state online
next_state none
state_time Wed Feb 10 19:38:06 2010
logfile /var/svc/log/system-webconsole:console.log

process 843 /usr/java/bin/java -server -Xmx128m -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:ParallelGCThreads=4
- check port 6789 is listen mode
# netstat -an | grep 6789
*.6789 *.* 0 0 49152 0 LISTEN
if the output show
localhost .6789 *.* 0 0 49152 0 LISTEN
than do these:
- check that the tcp_listen of webconsole service is true, default is false
# svccfg -s webconsole listprop options/tcp_listen
options/tcp_listen boolean false
# svcadm disable svc:/system/webconsole:console
# svccfg -s webconsole setprop options/tcp_listen=true
# svccfg -s webconsole listprop options/tcp_listen
options/tcp_listen boolean true
# svcadm enable svc:/system/webconsole:console
