Solaris Zones and NFS mounts

Hi all,
Got a customer who wants to seperate his web environments on the same node. The release of apache, Java and PHP are different so kind of makes sense. Seems a perfect opportunity to implement zoning. It seems quite straight forward to setup (I'm sure I'll find out its not). The only concern I have is that all Zones will need access to a single NFS mount from a NAS storage array that we have. Is this going to be a problem to configure and how would I get them to mount automatically on boot.
Cheers

Not necessarily, you can create (from Global zone) a /zone/zonename/etc/dfs/dfstab (NOT a /zone/[i[zonename[/i]/root/etc/dfs/dfstab notice you don't use the root dir) and from global do a shareall and the zone will start serving. Check your multi-level ports and make sure they are correct. You will run into some problems if you are running Trusted Extensions or the NFS share is ZFS but they can be overcome rather easily.
EDIT: I believe you have to be running TX for this to work. I'll double check.

Strange delete behavior in Solaris 10 with NFS mounts

We are using the apache commons-io framework to delete a directory in a Solaris 10 environment. The code works well on our dev and qa boxes, but when we load it into our production envrionment we get intermittent failures where the files in a directory are not being deleted and therefore when we try to delete the directory it fails to delete.
We suspect that this may be some kind of NFS problem in Solaris where it may take longer to delete a file than if it is on a local drive and therefore the code reaches the deletedir before the OS actually removes the files and this cause the delete directory failure because files are still present.
Has anyone seen this in an NFS environment with Solaris? We are on Java 1.4.2_15 and we are using apache commons-io 1.3.1.

The apache commons-io framework contains a method to delete a directory by recursively deleting all files and subdirectories. Intermittently, we are seeing some of the files in a subdirectory remain and then when delete is called to remove the directory (from within the commons-io framework deletedir method) we get an IOException. This only occurs on an NFS mounted file system on our production system. Our dev and qa systems are also on an NFS but it is a different one and appears to be loaded differently and the behavior for dev and qa consistently works as expected.
It appears to be some kind of latency issue related to the way java deletes files on the NFS, but no conclusive evidence so far.
We have not tried this with a newer version of java since we are presently constrained to 1.4 :-(

Live upgrade, zones and separate mount points

Hi,
We have a quite large zone environment based on Solaris zones located on VxVM/VxFS. I know this is a doubtful configuration but the choice was made before i got here and now we need to upgrade the environment. Veritas guides says its fine to locate zones on Veritas, but i am not sure Sun would approve.
Anyway, sine all zones are located on a separate volume i want to create a new one for every zonepath, something like:
lucreate -n upgrade -m /:/dev/dsk/c2t1d0s0:ufs -m /zones/zone01:/dev/vx/dsk/zone01/zone01_root02:ufs
This works fine for a while after integration of 6620317 in 121430-23, but when the new environment is to be activated i get errors, see below[1]. If i look at the command executed by lucreate i see that the global root is mounted, but by zoneroot does not seem to have been mounted before the call to zoneadmd[2]. While this might not be a supported configuration, VxVM seems to be supported and i think that there are a few people out there with zonepaths on separate disks. Live upgrade probably has no issues with the files moved from the VxFS filesystem, that parts has been done, but the new filesystems does not seem to get mounted correctly.
Anyone tried something similar or has any idea on how to solve this?
The system is a s10s_u4 with kernel 127111-10 and Live upgrade patches 121430-25, 121428-10.

I updated my manual pages got a reminder of the zonename field for the -m option of lucreate. But i still have no success, if i have the root filesystem for the zone in vfstab it tries to mount it the current root into the alternate BE:

Windows server 2008 R2 and NFS mounted subdirectories.

I am mounting from a Windows Server 2008 R2 Box to a RHEL 6.3 machine and I am able see the folders; however, I am unable to see the sub-folders via the mapped NFS mount in windows. Any ideas as to why? Some additional facts are below.
1. We are using an NFS mount from Windows to RHEL (mount -o
\\RHELBOX\ops\resources R:) We NFS mount from RHEL to a Storage device - the fstab entry looks like this:
10.9.9.9:/vol/afpres1/psf_prod
/ops/resources/prod     nfs
_netdev,defaults
0 0
10.9.9.9:/vol/afpres1/psf_test
/ops/resources/test       nfs
_netdev,defaults
0 0
10.9.9.9:/vol/afpres1/baselib
/ops/resources/psf
nfs          _netdev,defaults
0 0
The RHEL export file looks like this.
/ops/resources 10.4.4.4(rw,sync,no_all_squash,insecure,nohide) (the 10.4.4.4 IP address is the of the 2008 r2 server
/ops/resources 10.4.4.5(rw,sync,no_all_squash,insecure,nohide)
/ops 10.4.11.66(rw,sync,no_all_squash,insecure,nohide)
#/ops/resources *(rw,sync,no_all_squash,insecure,nohide)
/opspool *(rw,sync)

Systemd and nfs .mount

Hi,
I'm trying to setup a systemd unit for my NFS mounts. I don't want to use /etc/fstab because I want an openvpn.service dependency. However, for now, I'm omitting that dependency due to debugging. Here is the current unit file I have:
# cat host\@.mount
[Unit]
Description=%i mount
DefaultDependencies=no
Requires=local-fs.target network.target rpc-statd.service
Conflicts=umount.target
[Mount]
What=host:/%i
Where=/%i
Type=nfs
Options=user,async,atime,exec,rw,wsize=32768,rsize=32768
DirectoryMode=0755
TimeoutSec=20
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
When I try to enable this I get the famously vague error:
# systemctl enable ./host\@mnt.mount
Failed to issue method call: Invalid argument
Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks!

The solution is NOT to create this file at all. Apparently, exports from the server do not require them. If I remove it and reboot the server, I am able to connect from my workstation with no issues. For reference:

LDAP and NFS mounts/setup OSX Lion iMac with Mac Mini Lion Server

Hello all,
I have a local account on my iMac (Lion), and I also have a Mac Mini (Lion Server) and I want to use LDAP and NFS to mount the /Users directory, but am having trouble.
We have a comination of Linux (Ubuntu), Windows 7 and Macs on this network using LDAP and NFS, except the windows computers.
We have created users in workgroup management on the server, and we have it working on a few Macs already, but I wasnt there to see that process.
Is there a way to keep my local account separate, and still have NFS access to /Users on the server and LDAP for authentification?
Thanks,
-Matt

It would make a great server. Bonus over Apple TV for example is that you have access via both wired ethernet and wireless. Plus if you load tools from XBMC, Firecore and others you have a significant media server. Cost is right too.
Many people are doing this - google mac mini media server or other for more info.
Total downside to any windows based system - dealing with constant anti-virus, major security hassels, lack of true media integration and PITA to update, etc.
You should be aware that Lion Server is not ready for prime time - it stil has significant issues if you are migrating from SNL 10.6.8. If you buy an apple fresh Lion Server mac mini you should have no problems.
You'll probably be pleased.

LDOMs, Solaris zones and Live Migration

Hi all,
If you are planning to use Solaris zones inside a LDOM and using an external zpool as Solaris zone disk, wouldn't this break one of the requirements for being able to do a Live Migration ? If so, do you have any ideas on how to use Solaris zones inside an LDOM and at the same time be able to do a Live Migration or is it impossible ? I know this may sound as a bad idea but I would very much like to know if it is doable.

Thanks,
By external pool I am thinking of the way you probably are doing it, separate LUNs mirrored in a zpool for the zones coming from two separate IO/Service domains. So even if this zpool exist inside the LDOM as zone storage this will not prevent LM ? That's good news. The requirement "no zpool if Live Migration" must then only be valid for the LDOM storage itself and not for storage attached to the running LDOM. I am also worried about a possible performance penalty introducing an extra layer of virtualisation. Have you done any tests regarding this ?

Word 2008 for Mac and NFS mounted home directories "Save File" issues

Greetings everyone,
(Long time lurker, first time poster here)
I admin a small network (under 20 workstaitons) with a centralized NFS server, with user home directories mounted via NFS upon login. Users are authenticated via LDAP. This is all working fine, there is no problem here. The problem lies when my users use Microsoft Word 2008 for Mac. When they attempt to save a file to thier Desktop (or Documents or any folder under thier home dir) they are met with the following message:
(dialog box popup)
"Word cannot save or create this file. The disk maybe be full or write-protected. Try one or more of the following: * Free more memory. * Make sure the disk you want to save the file on is not full, write-protected or damaged. (document-name.ext)"
This happens regardless of file format (Doc, Docx, Txt) and regardless of saved location under the network mounted dir. I've noticed that when saving Word creates a .tmp file in the target directory, which only further confuses me to the underlying cause of the issue.
When users logon to a local machine account and attempt the save, there is no issue.
I have found many posts in other commuity forums, including this one, indicating that the issue is a .TempoaryItems folder in the root of the mounted directory. This folder already exists and is populated with entries such as "folder.2112" (where 2112 is the uid of the LDAP user). I find other posts indicating that this is an issue with Word:2008 and OSX10.8, with finger pointing in either direction, but no real solution.
I have installed all Office for Mac updates from Microsoft (latest version 12.3.6).
I have verified permissions of the user's home dir.
I have also ensured that this issue effects ONLY Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac apps, LibreOffice and other applications have no issue.
Does *ANYONE* have a solution or workaround for this issue? While we're trying to phase Microsoft products out, getting users to ditch Word and Excel is difficult without removing them from systems completely. So any pointers or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
~k

I can't tell you how to fix bugs in an obsolete version of Office, but a possible workaround is to use mobile home directories under OS X Server. The home directories are hosted locally and synced with the server.

Solaris 10 and NFS/Automount into Solaris 8 Env.

Hello fellow Administrators,
I have recently upgraded my own station to Solaris 10 6/06 update 2 in a Solaris 8 NIS/Automount environment. How ever, i have noticed that my station from time to time 'frezzez' and becomes unresponding. It's as if the system hangs due to some sort of conversation/hand shake with my NIS Server. I have several automounts in my vfstab to my local NIS server.
Question, has anyone else had similair problems/experiances ?
Grateful to any answer that can solve this mystery of mine.
Regards,
Pierre

Hi Robert,
Seems to be working better now and i tried on a user as well and there are no complains yet. In the end i applied the latest Sun Cluster for Sol 10 (not many where applied to the 6/06 update 2) and your small 'hack'.
Thank's a bunch!

Nfs mount point does not allow file creations via java.io.File

Folks,
I have mounted an nfs drive to iFS on a Solaris server:
mount -F nfs nfs://server:port/ifsfolder /unixfolder
I can mkdir and touch files no problem. They appear in iFS as I'd expect. However if I write to the nfs mount via a JVM using java.io.File encounter the following problems:
Only directories are created ? unless I include the user that started the JVM in the oinstall unix group with the oracle user because it's the oracle user that writes to iFS not the user that creating the files!
I'm trying to create several files in a single directory via java.io.File BUT only the first file is created. I've tried putting waits in the code to see if it a timing issue but this doesn't appear to be. Writing via java.io.File to either a native directory of a native nfs mountpoint works OK. ie. Junit test against native file system works but not against an iFS mount point. Curiously the same unit tests running on PC with a windows driving mapping to iFS work OK !! so why not via a unix NFS mapping ?
many thanks in advance.

Hi Diep,
have done as requested via Oracle TAR #3308936.995. As it happens the problem is resolved. The resolution has been not to create the file via java.io.File.createNewFile(); before adding content via an outputStream. if the File creation is left until the content is added as shown below the problem is resolved.
Another quick question is link creation via 'ln -fs' and 'ln -f' supported against and nfs mount point to iFS ? (at Operating System level, rather than adding a folder path relationship via the Java API).
many thanks in advance.

Recommendations for Solaris Zones for NW2004S?

I'm new to Solaris zones and would appreciate any recommendations from you regarding the setup of zones to run NW2004S. I did a scan of SapNet and SDN, but found nothing.
So, for example, would you insist on running a Prod instance in the global zone? For an SAP that runs in a zone, which file-systems would you share from the global zone?
Another tips/traps you have would be greatly appreciated.

root@consbig / >zoneadm list -vi

Parameters of NFS in Solaris 10 and Oracle Linux 6 with ZFS Storage 7420 in cluster without database

Hello,
I have ZFS 7420 in cluster and OS Solaris 10 and Oracle Linux 6 without DB and I need mount share NFS in this OS and I do not know which parameters are the best for this.
Wich are the best parameters to mount share NFS in Solaris 10 or Oracle Linux 6?
Thanks
Best regards.

Hi Pascal,
My question is because when We mount share NFS in some servers for example Exadata Database Machine or Super Cluster for best performance we need mount this shares with specific parameters, for example.
Exadata
192.168.36.200:/export/dbname/backup1 /zfssa/dbname/backup1 nfs rw,bg,hard,nointr,rsize=131072,wsize=1048576,tcp,nfsvers=3,timeo=600 0 0
Super Cluster
sscsn1-stor:/export/ssc-shares/share1 - /export/share1 nfs - yes rw,bg,hard,nointr,rsize=131072,wsize=131072,proto=tcp,vers=3
Now,
My network is 10GBE
What happen with normal servers only with OS (Solaris and Linux)?
Which parameters I need use for best performance?
or are not necessary specific parameters.
Thanks.
Best regards.

I also tried to run Snoop on the client and wireshark on Server and following is what I see:

SAP Java and Solaris Zones SolMan 4.0

May require Solaris Zones experience to continue.
I have three SAP database instances/central instances running in three sparse Solaris zones with no problem.
I have created a new sparse zone for a new SAP installation (Solution Manager 4.0) and started the installation. SAP requires a 1.4.2 SDK even though Java 1.5 comes with Solaris 10. The 1.4.2 SDK is in /usr/j2se. The installation in the sparse zone errors out because it can't get "write" rights to /usr/j2se/jre/lib/security/local_policy.jar as it is trying to install some security encryption JCE component.
I have thought about creating a /usr/j2se_zonename file system, copying the contents of /usr/j2se into it and then mounting /usr/j2se_zonename in the zone as a lofs with the name /usr/j2se. However when I do the copy of /usr/j2se I get some recursion errors.
Any thoughts about how to add a writable /usr/j2se into the sparse zone with the least amount of effort ? Otherwise plan B would be to create a "large" zone with a writable /usr directory.
Received a great answer, that while it may not be architecturally "pure" it may get the job done.
You might just download the relevant JDK tarball and unpack that
somewhere in your zone (anywhere you like), and point SAP at it...
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
Get the one called "self extracting file"-- you can unpack that anywhere
you want.

Hi Russ,
no you only have to generate two RFCs to your R/3 and assign them in SMSY to for system monitoring
Then you need a Solution, assign your R/3 to the Solution, setup the system monitoring.
