StarOffice8 Solaris 10 sparc: how to install only in the global zone?

hello all,
i have installed SO8 on T2000 Solaris 10 according this doc:
[http://notallmicrosoft.blogspot.com/2005/10/installing-staroffice-8-on-solaris-nfs.html|http://notallmicrosoft.blogspot.com/2005/10/installing-staroffice-8-on-solaris-nfs.html]
everyhing works fine except that now, i have to setup zones on my nfs server, and because the staroffice installer isn't aware of zones, and doesn't permit to do:
pkgadd -G ...
all the zones created are very big due to staroffice (800Mb instead of 100Mb!)
so i tried the following method:
- launch the installer so-8-ga-bin-solsparc-en-US_fr.sh without DISPLAY for example
- go into /var/tmp/unpack_staroffice/packages
- install all the packages manually:
pkgadd -G -d . SUNWstaroffice-* (this method is already used by OpenOffice!)
This method works well if i use soffice on the nfs server.
But on nfs client, that mount /opt/staroffice8, i got this error:
mimosa-henry% soffice
The application cannot be started.
The component manager is not available.How can i deal with it? Is it possible to modify some scripts to add "-G" option to pkgadd without breaking the installation? What is the component manager? What package is concerned?
Thanks in advance for help,

ok, the solution is here:

Non-Global Zones - how can I tell what the Global Zone is

Hi,
I have a host that I know is a non-global zone (ngz). I can ssh to the ngz as root or a non-privileged user.
But once there how do I know what the host name for the global zone is?
I could probably run a script from all global zones to report all running zones and so I'd know that way but I have a specific need to know from inside the ngz.
Thanks!

That's a built-in security feature; and I know of no way to circumvent this mechanism.
I had some hope that there was a way to 'see' at least the global-zone information from the zone. From the shell the 'zone' commands are available ..
:# zoneadm list -cv
ID NAME STATUS PATH
48 hostname_svn running / So it's at least aware that it is a zone, even if it can't tell me anything else about itself. I can still go the long way around to get the information for my need, thanks.
The global zone is the only thing that can see everything. The non-global zones can only see information specific to their zone.
This is by design and it really is a security mechanism. You don't want the zones running outside of their boundaries and information about the global zone (or any other zone) is outside the boundaries of a non-global zone.

Unable to install .p5p package in global zones in Solaris 11

Hello All,
I have few zones configured on my Solaris 11 node which are up and running. I have a package in a .p5p archive package which i need to install in my global zone as well as the non-global zones. I dont want to use a network based repository for the installation.
When i try to install the package it gives me the below error
"pkg install: The proposed operation on this parent image can not be performed because
temporary origins were specified and this image has children. Please either
retry the operation again without specifying any temporary origins, or if
packages from additional origins are required, please configure those origins
persistently."
1. How to install a .p5p package without a network based repository ?
2. Is it possible to install packages from the global zone to non-global zones without having to log on to each of the zones ?
TIA,
Sudhir

Package can be installed from global zone to local zone. When you issue pkgadd command from global zone it will distribute the package to local zones.Solaris 11 packaging does not use pkgadd(1M), it uses pkg(1M), described in more detail in pkg(5). Unlike in Solaris 10, the global zone and each non-global zone can have a disjoint set of packages. Thus, it is possible to minimize the global zone but have a zone that has most of Solaris installed. To allow this, pkg does not cause packages that are installed in the global zone to be automatically installed in non-global zones. For most use cases, this is a big improvement over the way things worked in Solaris 10.
Note that pkgadd(1M) is still available in Solaris 11 to allow you to install legacy svr4 packages. Even when using pkgadd on Solaris 11, it does not cross zone boundaries.

Always install applications into non-global zones?

I am planning on taking full advantage of Containers and Zones as I migrate servers and applications to Solaris 10. During this migration process, I believe that I will have a need to initially just run just one application on a server. I fear that if I do this in the global zone I will lose flexibility down the road for future projects and workloads. So, should I consider always installing applications in a non-global zone and never install applications in the global zone? This would keep the global zone as the controller of the non-global zones and ensure that I can always add more non-global zones later without having to worry about what is running in the global zone.
Are there any thoughts or comments on this topic?

Yes we've found it's best to run the applications in non-global zones. Here are a few benefits, basically we only put an application in the global zone if it requires it (like Oracle RAC). Note non-RAC instances of Oracle will run in a non-global zone just fine.
Reasons to put applications in non-global zones
o Increased security (self contained environment)
o Increased flexibility for provisioning resources (CPU, memory, etc) when/if we decide to run multiple applications on the same hardware
o Increased flexibility in starting up temporary environments to debug issues in parallel to the primary environment (i.e. in another non-global zone on the same server)
o Works well with Sun Cluster (i.e. we cluster the non-global zones so that they can run across several hosts)
o Improved trouble shooting and performance diagnosis as the applications are isolated to a non-global zone
o Simplified environment for the application admins as the environment can be fine tuned for their needs (i.e. only let them see what they need)
o Disaster recovery is much faster for a non-global zone

How to install only windows 7 on macbook 4.1?

how to install only windows 7 on macbook4,1?
i have windows 7 dvd, i want to install windows 7 only and does not want to keep msc os 10.5.8. currently i do not have any cd or DVD which came with my macbook. So i need to know:
1- how i install windows 7?
2- 32bit or 64bit windows?
3- after installing how to get drivers of my macbook?

There is no disc of Mountain Lion, and if there were it would not contain drivers, those are on your original OSX disc (the one that came with the machine) or you can download them using Boot Camp Assistant.
You will need a 64 bit copy of Windows, OEM or retail.

Hi. I recently got a new Mac with OS 10.6.2. It came with the iLife Apps installed.For reasons I won't get into ......I had to try to install the older iMovie 08 (which I believe had some sound files connected to Garageband).After attempting that install.....I noticed that garageband had dissappeared.......the icon both in the dock and in applications had dissappeared.
So I believe I need to reinstall Garageband.........but not sure if its on install disc 1 or 2 and how I install only Garageband and not the other iApps? Thanks for any help.

You should be able to install OpenScript only using the micro install distribution. You can just skip the steps concerning XE & WLS installation/connection.

How to install only Roxio CD Burner Program from the Recovery CDs?

I bought a T400 a few weeks ago in Korea.
But my company uses English, so I had to install a Windows XP English version.
However, at that time I lost the Roxio software.
I have the recovery CDs for T400 Windows XP PRO SP2.
If it is possible, then please let me know how to install only Roxio CD Burner Programs from the Recovery CDs.
Thanks.

Hello,
unfortunately it´s not possible to install just one program from recovery cd´s.
But on Lenovo support pages, there you should find your software and applications.
Please visit with IE and let autodetect your system.
Then you should able to choose which type of software is availible for you.
Choose CD and DVD drives.
Hopefully the T400 department is up to date now.

How to install Soap on the (Apache) Oracle HTTP Server

Hi,
Does anyone know how to install SOAP on the Oracle HTTP Server? I downloaded a soap version (it seems that the standard version comes without SOAP) from the xml.apache.org site and followed the installation instructions as far as I could (only Tomcat is described). However, no 'soaping'!!! Maybe I'm overlooking something because I cannot imagine that it should be difficult.
Thanks in advance!
Hans

Hans, the SOAP implementation is part of OC4J. You get it out of the box. Check out how to use the out-of-the-box implementation in the tutorials on Web services with Oracle9i JDeveloper at:
http://otn.oracle.com/tech/webservices/htdocs/series/content.html
These tutorials/samples use the implementation of SOAP/WSDL that Oracle calls J2EE Web Services and this is the long term direction of Oracle's Web services implementation. This implementation is what Oracle will be evolving to Sun's Java Web Services Developer Pack as it finalizes into J2EE 1.4.
If you want to use Oracle/Apache SOAP, this too is included in OC4J but its support is being deprecated in future releases of Oracle9iAS in favour of the J2EE Web Services implementation. To find it, check out the OC4J/soap/webapps/ directory for the soap.ear file (it is in a slightly different spot if you are using the full Oracle9iAS R2 but still within the soap directory structure. Simply add <application name="soap" path="../../../soap/webapps/soap.ear" auto-start="true"/> to your OC4J server.xml and <web-app application="soap" name="soap" root="/soap" /> to your OC4J http-web-site.xml, re-start and away you go.
Finally, just to be sure, SOAP support in Oracle9iAS did not appear until 1.0.2.2.x and higher. If using 1.0.2.1 or less, you are correct, there is no SOAP support.
Mike.
Most folks that try out the J2EE Web Services find it is pretty easy to use so

I really need to use Autocad and Rhino on my Macpro, so Parallels or VMware fusion is not an option. I am already using VMware fusion on my Macbook pro, but VMware will not use 4g RAM of my Macpro which means it would be hard to run Rhino.
By the way, I am planning to buy Windows (I am sooooo ashamed to install that self-messed up OS on my Macpro. but so what,,, Autocad and Rhino do not run on Mac, and I need specifically the two programs). XP with sp2, sp3, or vista. which one is the best option?
Since my Macpro has only One 2.8GHZ Quad-Core Intel Xeon, there is no need to buy XP professional? (XP home doesn't support multi-processors, and XP Pro does, I guess?)

VMware Fusion uses only 512 RAM maximum, doesn't it? But you said it will use my entire 4GB RAM but only 2 cores. That's something different from what I've known.
If fusion really uses 4gm RAM of my mac pro, I don't really have to use Boot Camp. But most people who need to run heavy programs in Windows choose Boot Camp because it's the only way to use a Mac just like a PC, meaning that the XP uses the entire RAM memory.
XP will only use 2 GB of RAM, no matter how much the system has.
I just found out that Rhino doesn't really work on Vista. So vista is ruled out.
Only Vista 64-bit recognizes all system RAM.

How do I only use the wifi internet because I don't want to use my mobile data because I don't have Internet on my price plan and its costing me money?

Well, if you are running iOS 6.0 or later.
The option supposed to be in Settings>General>Cellular>Cellular Data---Off & Enable 3G---Off
I think you'd better check the settings in Privacy>Location Services.
Some items in it need Cellular data like"setting time zone" and "Find my iPhone'.

Imap is designed to synchronize your mail client with the mail server, this the normal result.
