Where is old Solaris 10 update!!

Hi Everyone,
I have a valid contract and can open Oracle Support tickets but I'm not able to download Solaris 10 update 8?
I searched in the forum and some people are saying that I have to contact my local support to get the old update!
is this true? Why I can't just download it online !?
This is also for patches, I can't download old recommend cluster patches.

Hi.
Select seach criteria:
Product - Solaris 10 Operating system
Type - Patch Set
Seach results:
Patch Solaris 10 5/08 SPARC Bundle: Solaris 10 05/08 (Update 5) Patch Bundle for Solaris 10 SPARC (Solaris Operating System patches only)
Patch Solaris 10 5/08 x86 Bundle: Solaris 10 05/08 (Update 5) Patch Bundle for Solaris 10 x86 (Solaris Operating System patches only)
Or seach by patch name:

  • Solaris 10 update 6 keeps generating core file (/core)

    I wonder if somebody has encountered the following issue.
    I did a fresh install of Solaris 10 update 6 on two servers (T5140 and T524) from DVD.
    I noticed that a core file was in the root filesystem (/core).
    So, I deleted it.
    As soon as I delete the core file, another one is generated.
    This is happening on both servers where I installed Solaris 10 update 6 from the DVD.
    This is not a live update install. Solaris was installed from scratch. When prompted to preserve previous data, I replied with 'do not preserve data'
    Does anybody know where the core file is coming from and how to stop it being generated?
    Found out that is coming from vold

    #It seems that vold is failing to mount the DVD on both servers after Solaris was installed.
    Is this a Solaris 10 update 6 bug?
    Edited by: shen on Jan 29, 2009 8:45 PM

    Never mind.
    It is a known bug documented on manual " [Solaris 10 10/08 Release Notes, Chapter 2 Solaris Runtime Issues|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-5245/chapter2-1000?a=view] " as shown below.
    The solution is to apply vold patch [138130-01|http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-138130-01-1].
    Solaris 10 10/08 DVD Media Might Not be Automatically Mounted by vold (6712352)
    The Solaris 10 10/08 DVD does not mount by default during runtime. No error message is displayed.
    Workaround: Perform the following steps:
       1. Become superuser.
       2. Disable vold:
          * On Solaris 10 Systems:
                # svcadm disable -t volfs
          * On Solaris 8 and Solaris 9 systems:
                /etc/init.d/volmgt stop
       3. Mount the media manually by using the # mount -F hsfs path to block device path to mount point command. For example:
          # mount -F hsfs /dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s2 /mnt

  • Problem with luactivate procedure in Solaris 10 Update 5

    We are having some issues with Live Upgrade procedures with Solaris 10 Update 5 on SUN Enterprise T5240 servers.
    We have successfully performed those procedures earlier on SUN Fire v240 using Solaris 10 Update 3.
    Here is the problem statement:
    1. Created a Flar image successfully
    2. Installed on a 5240 machine from InstallServer and using jumpstart profile using a sysidcfg and flash_prof
    3. The first installation is successful and system picks up configuration information from sysidcfg file on the install server.
    4. Now we use lucreate to create another BE (Boot Environment) BE_2.
    5. BE_2 is upgraded with luupgrade using the same flar as used in step 2.
    6. Issuing command:
    luactivate -s BE_2
    7. After a init 6, system tries to boot from BE_2. This time instead of copying system files from BE_1 due to -s options specified, it instead runs the sysconfig command that asks for all the configuration options again.
    8. When we were using these steps in Solaris 10 update 3 on Sun Fire v240, everything was working fine. The system config was available in BE_2 without any issue.

    The resolution is set by that of the first video clip put in a project timeline.  To change your project to 1080p do the following:
    Create a new project
    Put any known 1080p video clip in the project (it can be removed later)
    Select the old project and then Edit - Select All then Edit - Copy
    Select the new project and then Edit - Copy
    The new project should now be 1080p.  You can remove the first clip if you want.

  • Where can I download an update to MAC OS X 10.6?

    Where can I download an update to MAC OS X 10.6. I'm trying to update my old MacBook Pro so I can update my iPad and iPhone using iTunes. I'm running  MAC OS X 10.4 at the moment and have check that its possible just cant fine anywhere on the Apple Store web site to download the upgrade!!. or is my only option to buy a second hand version off ebay? thanks

    Updates are done through Software Update and are free downloads.  Upgrades you have to purchase - NOT free.  Therefore, you must purchase Snow Leopard - how can I purchase snow leopard is a good place to start.

  • Wheres the old network documentation when installing from 2010 source?

    wheres the old network style wiki resources for users who install from a 2010 source?  Im installing from a 2010.05 core, and it uses the old network config in rc.conf. 
    example
    #rc.conf
    INTERFACES=(eth0)
    eth0="dhcp"
    gateway="default gw 192.168.1.254"
    ROUTES=(!gateway)
    #resolv.conf
    nameserver=8.8.8.8
    nameserver=8.8.4.4
    i can ping my gateway and lan members, but i cant ping 8.8.8.8, so that makes sense why i cant ping google.com
    am i just not adresing all the conf files, or is this a gateway issue?  also, i couldnt get dhcp to work.  I set it that way first, it wouldnt not grab an ip.  Then once i set it static, and then back to dhcp, it reverts to the static ip either way.
    [we really need a resource that shows up on a google search of "arch ROUTES(", or "arch ROUTES(!gateway)", or "arch INTERFACES=" because if users only have access to an older install source (i left my newer source at work, doh), we want them to be up and running, and updated right away]

    Patches welcome :-)
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?ti … did=111704 - it's not pretty, but you can look at the code:
    ==Networking==
    * {{Codeline|[[HOSTNAME]]}}: Set this to the hostname of the machine, without the domain part. This is totally your choice, as long as you stick to letters, digits and a few common special characters like the dash. Don't be too creative here, though, and when in doubt, use the default.
    * {{Codeline|INTERFACES}}: Here you define the settings for your networking interfaces. The default lines and the included comments explain the setup well enough. If you do not use DHCP to configure a device, just keep in mind that the value of the variable (whose name must be equal to the name of the device which is supposed to be configured) equals the line which would be appended to the {{Codeline|ifconfig}} command if you were to configure the device manually in the shell.
    * {{Codeline|ROUTES}}: You can define your own static network routes with arbitrary names here. Look at the example for a default gateway to get the idea. Basically the quoted part is identical to what you'd pass to a manual route add command, therefore reading man route is recommended if you don't know what to write here, or simply leave this alone.
    * {{Codeline|NETWORKS}}: This enables certain [[network profiles]] at boot-up. Network profiles provide a convenient way of managing multiple network configurations, and are intended to replace the standard {{Codeline|INTERFACES}}/{{Codeline|ROUTES}} setup that is still recommended for systems with only one network configuration. If your computer will be connecting to various networks at various times (e.g., a laptop) then you can configure profiles in the {{Filename|/etc/network.d}} directory. There are template files included in {{Filename|/etc/network.d/examples}} that can be used to create new profiles.

  • How do i move the reload page button in firefox OSX to beside the back button where it was before i updated.

    how do i move the reload page button in firefox OSX to beside the back button where it was before i updated.
    i know there is a classic theme addon for windows but i need a fix for osx...its very frustrating when you update and things like this change and cant be customized back to the way we are used to using the browser. its counter intuitive to have the refresh page button so far away from the back and home buttons.

    Is Classic Theme Restorer only for Windows? I thought it worked on Mac, too. Some of the pre-selected interface items like the Application Button may match old Windows versions and you may need to deselect those in its Settings dialog.
    To access that dialog, you can use the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Command+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions, the on the right side, look for the Options button below Classic Theme Restorer.

  • Unable to regenerate /dev/rmt/0 drivers with cfgadm -c configure on Solaris 10 update 11 (1/13).  How does one do this for SAS HBA StorageTek Autoloader?

    How does one regenerate the /dev/rmt/0 when cfgadm -c configure <device> will not rebuild it?  Have attempted reboot -- -r, with modifing /kernel/drv/st.conf as well as /kernel/drv/sgen.conf.  Running on a SPARC T4-1 Solaris 10 updat3 11, (1/13).

    This has been resolved.  Getting the /etc/driver_aliases set correctly: # update_drv -d -i st; update_drv -d -i sgen; add_drv -m '* 0600 root sys' -i '"scsiclass,01" "scsiclass,08" wa' worked.  Making sure the st and sgen entries are in /etc/name_to_major were needed.  For the Simpana/CommVault WA drivers, in opt/simpana/WA/wa.conf with the name="wa" parent="fp" target=16 lun=0 fc-port-wwn="device's World Wide Number> added for each lun 0 to 7.  Then the touch /reconfigure; reboot worked.  First the c1::rmt/0 tape and c1::scsi/changer/<wwn> med-changer were mapped.  After modifying the minor_perm ('* 0600 root sys') and name_to_major entries, the WA CommValt entries , WA drivers showed up in cfgadm -al as c1::wa0  tape and c1::wa1  med-changer, only recognizable from CommVault.  Also had to update the SAS-2 HBA StoregTek Autoloader driver with patch 145648-05. Solaris 10 update 11 (1/13) comes with 145648-03.  In our particular case, we found cfgadm -al mapped SAS-2 HBA to c1 using the single mini-sas 6gb connector cable, where it mapped to c7 with the four tail connector.

  • Created zone with defaults won't boot completely (Solaris 10, Update 1)

    If I create a zone with defaults, i.e. allowing the zone to inherit the typical package dirs, the resulting zone does not boot completely. When I attach to the zone via zlogin, the zone looks to be in an administrative state. It never boots to a point where one would typically enter in the initial configuration info, e.g. timezone and root password.
    However if I create the zone after first removing the inherited dirs, the zone boots to a state where it subsequently can be confiured and fully booted.
    Looks as if the SMF facilities are not fully initialized when the zone is configured to inherit its packages. This could be a red herring as I'm a newbie who's moved over from Linux and starting to understand SMF specifically and Solaris in general.
    I did not have this problem with Solaris 10. I've just installed Solaris 10 Update 1; the problem seems specific to that installation. I reinstalled and the problem persists.

    I snipped the output because there were some errors, which on retrospect seems to have been a silly decision. I repeated the process and captured the missing output:
    # zoneadm -z foo install
    Preparing to install zone <foo>.
    Creating list of files to copy from the global zone.

    > What does "svcadm list -vc" give you when you started the zone ?
    I took that as a typo, instead using "zoneadm?"
    # zoneadm list -vc
      ID NAME             STATUS         PATH
       0 global           running        /
       7 foo              running        /zone/fooThe zone is not on its own slice, however "/zone" is mounted as a loopback from /export/zone. I don't think that's a problem since the zone install seems to work if I don't inherit packages. Unless perhaps its a nesting level of lofs's.
    FWIW,

    I re-installad solaris 10 and during the update I ommitted SMC updates. However, I noticed unique problem after re-installation. I tried to download anotther tool from sun site. It failed due to lack of disk space. I preallocated 32GB drive-space during installation, I later observed that I only had 1.4GIG of disk space remaining. It seems like I should not have preallocated the entire 32gig to solaris 10 during installation, or should I have taken a different approach. A little puzzled right now.
    Thanks a bunch!!

  • Where can I find ipod updater so iTunes 10 will see my scrollwheel 10G ipod?

    Where can I find ipod updater so iTunes 10 will see my scrollwheel 10G ipod?
    I used it exclusively on an old iBook. (POS from the beginning - bad motherboard, replaced, went bad just out of warranty. So I use it for only certain things.)
    Now I want to load the scrollwheel ipod (also POS, bad motherboard where the headphones plug in, can't be repaired) from my iTunes 10 machine.
    iTunes 10 does not see the ipod with it's 1.2.6 software.   iTunes 7.5 sees it but will no longer update itself or the ipod.
    - my sig:  Whatever we're talking about, please don't tell me to buy a new one unless you're willing to pay for it.  Thanks.

    A "scrollwheel 10G" (10 GB) iPod may be 3rd gen...  If it's a 3rd gen iPod, the one with a "scrollwheel" and four "touch" buttons in a row between the screen and wheel (that glow orange), it will only work properly with a FireWire connection.  Although it has a dock connector, it does not charge over a USB connection.  If you Mac has a FireWire 800 port, you can use an adapter to connect to the old FireWire (400) docking cable.
    Mine still works perfectly (it's had a few battery replacements) with the latest iTunes and Mac OS X 10.7.4.  I think it has great sound...

  • Applying Solaris 10 Update 9 to system running only Update 7

    Hi, is it ok to go from Update 7 to Update 9 or even Update 10? When I attempt this, the "upgrade" appears to succeed, but it doesn't seem to install anything. It's strange. The package list it says it's going to install is empty. I attempted this by attaching the .iso (this is a VM I'm updating) and then running the installer directly from the cdrom drive. I've also tried to boot from the cdrom drive with the update 9 iso attached, but it appears to want to do a new installation over the old.
    I don't currently have access to get Update 8 or I'd just try that, so I'm stuck at the moment. Thanks for any input.

    Thanks for the reply. I found out the disks weren't the actual patch bundles, but full OS installations.
    So, I did end up getting the patch bundles, and I've launched it (Update 9, x86) and it's been stuck on the 3rd patch for about 1hr now. It's patch 119255-76. SHould a single patch in a patch bundle take this long? This is running Solaris 10, update 7 in a VM, applying patch bundle 10_x86_0910. It's driving me nuts because, if' it's actually stuck, I'm just wasting time waiting for it. Anyone have experience with this patch? THanks.

  • Where is "Boot Camp Software Update 3.1 for Windows 64 bit"?

    Where is "Boot Camp Software Update 3.1 for Windows 64 bit"??

    Did you try just 3.2 update?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL979
    I find this "you need 3.0 first" then have to install year old 3.1, and only then can you install 3.2? what kind of Windows motherboard support is that?
    And, you already have 3.0 installed off a 10.6 OS X DVD, and have you tried to use Apple Software Update (Windows obviously)? though I think the standalone updates are better and less trouble or problems. Download and keep them handy in case ever needed in the future too.

    J2SE 1.4.2 was already unchecked.
    Did I get this right?
    Wasnt sure if I was  was disabling Java or Java Script here....
    That is Java. Those are also really old versions. You can actually keep them turned on in Java Preferences.
    What you want to change is in Safari > Preferences > Security and turn off Java there. Leave Javascript turned on.
    This way, the only thing you disable is Java applets, which are useless anyway. If you need to run any Java programs, they will still work. If you have any specific site that requires a Java applet, you can always turn it on just for that site and turn it back off when you are done.

  • New to solaris---is update manager working correctly?

    well as my subject says I am new to solaris having put it on an pc bout a week ago. as I am using the "free" verson (not open solaris) I knew I would not be entitled to certain goodies but seem to have run into an issue getting the updates I (presumably) am entitled to. simply put I open up the solaris application "update manager" which is on my desktop saying "updates available". now upon initially launching the app I specified that I was using the free version (well it let me register without a code so I assume sun knows my status), and then selected the option to put a check mark next to all available updates. well after waiting like a full day with it showing that is was still in the process up updating I eventually aborted the process. I then tried installing a couple of the updates and though it took a while it worked. so I selected 3 of 4 more and again the update manager showed that I was updating but nothing was happening (to my knowledge). after several hours I aborted the app again. so what am I doing wrong. first off I am assuming that what sun presents to me is what is actually available to me using the free unregistered version of solaris. why then would updates fail? btw I know some linux (not an expert) and I figured that behind the scenes update manager was checking for dependencies and installing what I needed from sun repos. but of course I could be way off bass here. so what gives? thanks much in advance.

    first off I am assuming that what sun presents to me is what is actually available to me using the free unregistered version of solaris.No. Update Manager will show you everything but will only allow you to install basically security and a small subset of other patches.
    When you ran through the Solaris registration GUI you had a chance to enter a support contract #. If you chose not to enter one or if you want to use it without registering then you only get access to a few of the patches.
