Sparc storage Array woring under solaris 10.

I need to get a Sparc Storage Array to run under solaris 10. The soc driver that is needed is not supportted under solairs 10. I took the packages needed off of solaris 9 cds and installed them but no luck. I tried to to do a modload and modinfo but it was not there.
The package loaded a file into /kernel/drv/sparcv9/soc. I have solaris 9 onanother disk on the same system and looked at the system trying to copy and edit the files on 10 but not device paths show up in the system. I copyied a file called soc that was in /kernel/drv/ I edited the /etc/device_aliases and path_to_inst but no good.
There are no entries in the /devices/ dir that reference the soc path. I do not if than can work but really would like to get this working.

Don't cross-post.
You already have an active thread on this topic in the other forum.
Cross-posting fragments any responses all over the universe.
As time passes and the threads get separated by time,
the responses become irrelevant.
That's why it's poor forum etiquette.
You end up diluting the information.

The fibre interface on that beast is NOT a Gigabit connection,
such as is common on current systems.
It was a 100Mbps connection through an array controller,
running with a 40MHz microSPARC II control module.
You'd exceed its throughput capabilities in any attempt
to read or write data at or beyond that 100Mbps rate.
I don't anticipate much assistance in these forums for a technology that goes back a decade-and-a-half.
Contributors familiar with products from that era stopped posting in 2006
when the previous supportforum.sun.com was merged into this one.
We'll all look forward to your guidance after you succeed.
You'll teach the rest of us.

Sparc Storage Array 200: HOWTO?

Hi, I have a sun enterprise 5000 machine up and running with Solaris 10. I also have a Sparc Storage Array 200 which connects via a fibre channel to the machine. I have tried to search for documentation online, but can�t seem to find any on Sun�s website. What I was able to find out is that that there is a program called ssaadm which might help me talk to the array. However that program is not installed and when I do pkgadd it tells me that no packages were found in /var/spool/pkg. I�m very use to the some GNU/linux package management systems (such as apt (debian) or emerge (gentoo)), and they just get the packages online from the repository and download, (compile), and install them. I also cant find any info as what the dev nodes will be for the fibre card (I dont even know if solaris has drivers for it). If anyone could either tell me what needs to be done or point me in the direction of documentation I would greatly like that. Thanks.

drop down to Solaris 9... if you really want to use the SSA, then Solaris 9 was the last OS that supported it...
I doubt there is any support in Linux...

oh yes... documentation... docs.sun.com...

Hi All,
I want to connect Compaq storage Works SAN array to solaris10 Box. I can see array as connected but state as unusable.
How can i see the luns from the storage on solaris box??

Looks like the LUN is not configured correctly on the storage array. The kernel can't take the LUN online.
I have seen this on various boxes, most of the time it was either that the LUN wasn't set online on the SAN box or there is a SCSI reservation on the LUN.
Can you access the LUN from another host?

CD Writer on Sun SPARC under Solaris?

Hello gentlemen,
Does it possible to install (external) CD-Writer as the (external) device (SCSI or USB) on Sun SPARC under Solaris?
Does anybody use it as a real CD-Writer on Sun SPARC under Solaris?
Does it work on Sun SPARC under Solaris?
Does it write on Sun SPARC under Solaris?
What /dev/* could I use for CD-Writer?
Some documentation about compatibility of CD-Writers and SPARC/Solaris?
Thanks in advance!
Vladimir.

SVM - Storage array migration effort

We have several Solaris servers which have both internal drives not under SVM control and Array based SVM devices built into filesystems.
We need to do 2 things:
1) Migrate internal drives to Array based luns
2) Migrate existing SVM luns to new storage array.
I found and read through the Admin guide for SVM, and it appears to address "migration" only in relation to creating a mirror for an existing volume.
What I would like to do is replace (or mirror) the underlying devices of an existing filesystem, not the entire filesystem at the top level.
Im much more familiar with Linux LVM, where I would add new PV's to an existing VG and use the pvmove command.
I don't see a similiar capability in Solaris 10 LVM so wanted to check with the more experienced folks on how to proceed with this array migration effort.
Thanks

We are moving from an 10+ yr old HDS to a new VNX.
While EMC can physically move the data, I don't have any way to change the config on the SVM (that I know of) to use the new devices.
AFAIK I would have to do the migration at the SVM layer in order for the FS to be properly linked to it's underlying LUNS.
As for the existing FS on the local disk, that can be done by umounting the FS and moving, but I don't see an easy way to migrate the root volume without a rebuild of the root filesystem...

Porting of Sybase Application to Oracle 8i under Solaris

Dear All
I want to port an application from sybase 10.2 which is running under Solaris to Oracle 8I under Solaris. Apart from database objects and stored procedures which I have already converted I wan to conver some C Codes and Unix Scripts
Which are either shell scripts or perl programs. I need all of your valuable suggestions in this regard.
Q-1 . In the Perl Program the following lines are sybase specific
Use Sybase:: Dblib
Require /files0/apps/local/lib/perl15/Sybase/sybperl.pl;
What will be the equivalent for ORACLE.
Suggest what perl I should use in this context.
In continuation to the above also I have some shell variables assigned as follows
$SYB_SERVER=SYB_PROD_CERT;
$SYB_DATABASE=APPLDB;
$ENV{SYBASE}=/sybase/10.0.4;
$ENV{DSQUERY}=$SYB_SERVER
$SYB_USER=keshav;
$SYB_PWFILE=/myappl/processcert/passwords/$SYB_SERVER;
$SYB_PW=/usr/bin/cat $SYB_PWFILE;
chop($SYB_PW);
dbmsghandle(message_handler);
dberrhandle(error_handler);
( ($dbproc = &dblogin($SYB_USER,$SYB_PW,$SYB_SERVER)) != -1 );
( &dbuse($dbproc, $SYB_DATABASE) != -1 );
( ($dbproc2 = &dblogin($SYB_USER,$SYB_PW,$SYB_SERVER)) != -1 );
( &dbuse($dbproc2, $SYB_DATABASE) != -1 );
sub Statistics
# get distinct sub-cat counts
( &dbcmd($dbproc, "select count(*),orgnumber,name=(select servicerorgname from servicer where servicer.orgnumber=transactionlog.orgnumber) from transactionlog group by orgnumber order by count(*) desc\n") != -1 );
&dbsqlexec($dbproc);
&dbresults($dbproc);
$row = DBROWS( $dbproc );
2. One of the Sample C Program is given here which I want to convert into pro*c.
I would like to know what are the corresponding libraries of oracle under
Solaris are to be used and also the respective header files mapping of Sybase
To Oracle. Any comment of this will be appreciated.

Hello
The "-D_BIG_ENDIAN" shows you that the code is endian-dependent. This means that the program cannot be ported 1:1 because x86 is little endian while Sparc is big-endian.
I would first try to use "-D_LITTLE_ENDIAN" (or what flag ever I can find in the source codes) and to compile for x86.
Because of the "-D_BIG_ENDIAN" different source code is used for both machines. Maybe the little-endian source code is wrong:
#ifdef _BIG_ENDIAN
// correct source code for Sparc
#else
// INCORRECT source code for x86
#endifMartin

Solaris v10 sparc jumpstart server on x86 solaris - can't find miniroot.

I am trying to setup a jumpstart install server on an x86 solaris v10 machine to do a sparc network install. I downloaded both the CD and DVD sparc v10 ISO's. When I mount the CD, the Solaris_10/Tools/Boot directory (miniroot system) is symlinked back to ../../../s1 which does exist. I can't find it on the CD, I've used prtvtoc and this slice does not seem to exist.
On the DVD iso, the directoy exists, but many files cannot be read, almost like the filesystem is corrupt.
I've download these ISO and burned them many times, so I know it's not an issue with hardware or the CD/DVD media.
Where can I download a working sparc solaris v10 miniroot system?

There is no such entry under solaris. This entry only exist on windows.
On solaris you need to change entries in the kjs script (prior to SP3)
or iasenv.ksh (after SP3)

Storage Array???

Dear All,
Yesterday I was given a Storage Array and I have no idea what it is.
It is Grey with 7 HDD M2949ESP Drives (9 GB Fujitsu HDD). I have connected to my Solaris 9 box and it is showing lots of 2 GB drives. Can anyone tell me how I can identify the the unit and reconfigure the drive to be 7 X 9 GB drives?
thanks in advance,
Hugh

Some of the early Sun storage arrays had 7 slots, but to be sure and to identify your item correctly we would need partnumbers.
Here are a couple of examples of 7 slot SPARCstorage arrays:
http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/SSA_214_7Slot/S SA_214_7Slot.html
http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/SSA_219_7Slot/S SA_219_7Slot.html
I think you have the 219 model as it supports disks that are similar to your Fujitsu 2949.

My system is Solaris 9 sparc 64-bit
Oracle Database 10.1.0.2
I run this command:
CC -I/u00/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/rdbms/public -L/u00/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1/lib -locci10 test.cpp
and get the famous error
Undefined first referenced

I've tried to use:
gcc 3.4.2
Sun Forte 6.0
Sun Forte 6.2
Sun Forte 7
Sun Studio 10
all the same
if I set LD_LIBRARY_PATH and try to link with *.so library - it gives me "wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64"
I've tried to install and use Client 10.2 - no effect
Under Windows it works perfectly.
What should I do to make this thing compile under Solaris?

If you want your application to be 32 bit
- use Sun Forte 6.2 and link with OCCI library under $ORACLE_HOME/lib32
If you want your application to be 64 bit
- use Sun Forte 8 and link with libraries under $ORACLE_HOME/lib
( You should be passing the 64 bit compile flag "-xarch=v9" )

Sparc Storage not visible

Hi,
I bought an E4000 and Storage array 100. But the system doesn't
recognise the array. When I try to install Solaris 10, it says no
storage devices found.
I tried probe-fcal-all but it didn't give any output and didn't work.
The LCD on array shows lines as follow
Does the missing lines are problem?
What does missing lines mean?
How can E4000 recognise the array? I have changed the optical cable
also but no luck.
Thanks in advance.

Solaris 10 doesn't support the SSA. Also, it looks like you might have an issue with the SSA in general but it's hard to tell.

Serialization Perofrmance under Solaris

Hello,
I'am running an application under weblogic and Solaris. My application use EJB call between 2 EAR of the same Weblogic isntance (same JVM)
In the stack trace and using profiling tools (jvisualvm) I can see the serialization take a lot of CPU time
Is there any tunable to set under Solaris to improve Serialization of the Java VM ?
For information, My hardware is an Ultra Sparc T2 - T5440
Thank you for helping,
C.

Probably not.
You're more likely hitting the weaknesses of the coolthreads CPU's. They can handle vast numbers of threads simultaneously, but the CPU power of each thread is quite low. So CPU intensive tasks run relatively slowly.

Migrate zpools to new storage array

I am in the process of migrating to a new EMC storage array. I used EMC SRDF to copy all tracks from the current disks to the new disks, so that all new disks look identical except for the actual device path since the WWN is different on the new array. I was hoping I could simply unmask/unmap the old SAN, mask and map the new SAN, and ZFS would be able to import the pools from the new SAN (like you can with veritas), but I didn't take into consideration that the device paths/names would be different and ZFS wouldn't like it. Is there any way to get solaris to see the new ZFS pools that now exist on the the new storage array so that I don't have to mirror and then remove the disks from the pool and pretty much wipeout all of the sync work I've already done with the EMC software?
Hopefully this makes sense, but please let me know if I need to explain further.

No issue, works as expected, I just didn't split the synchronization between the old and new devices, so the new disks were still write disabled in EMC land. Once I split the sync, everything imported without a hitch, so it was my stupid mistake.

Error while Registering a iSCSI drive on to Storage array

Hi,
I've installed Oracle VM Manager 3.0.2 on Oracle Linux 6.1. When I tried to register a iSCSI drive on to Storage array, I go the following error:
"java.lang.NullPointerException
ADF_FACES-60097:For more information, please see the server's error log for an entry beginning with: ADF_FACES-60096:Server Exception during PPR, #4"
Also there is no items to be selected in the Storage Plug-in.
I read that Storage plug-in is in-built with version 3.0 and above.
Any help in this regard will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Prajeesh
