Why there are no /dev/mem, /dev/kmem on solaris10 non-global zones?

Hi All,
We have an application on SOLARIS10 that tries to open '/dev/kmem' using 'kvm_open' system call and after that it reads certain kernel virtual memory parameter values by using 'kvm_nlist' system call.
In solaris 10 non-global zones these calls are failing as /dev/kmem cannot be found. Is there any other way to access the kmem or kernel memory parameters on non-global zones?
What are the corresponding files for /dev/mem, /dev/kmem on non-global zones? We are interpreting /dev/mem and /dev/kmem files to get status and statistical information of the system on solaris.
This is urgent....Please help....
Thanks

You can't access kernel parameters directly (it's difficult to keep somone with access to it from making changes that would be visible to other zones). But it might be possible to get the information you need another way. Zones aren't virtual machines, and you can't do everything in a non-global zone that you can in the global zone.

Why there are no layout in number 3.0 ????????

why there are no layout in number 3.0 ????????
I need to export the number file to PDF file , I don't want all of the pages are together , I need to seperate the pages in PDF file , I need the PDF file with layout function , just like previous version .
why are this useful function missing in new version ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

All we know here is that the new version of Numbers is significantly different than the old version of Numbers. We didn't write the specifucation nor do we know what the objectives were for the redesign, other than Apple's stated desire to make the three platform versions of Numbers as compatible as possible across platforms. That's the best "why" we can give you.
Thanks for using only one exclamation point in your last post.

Does anyone know why there are no football apps for the iPhone for 2011

does anyone know why there are no football apprs for the iphone for 2011
I had apps last year for NFL schedules and also for college

anybody know

If this is true, then it is because no one is making these apps.
Why else would it be?

Why there are differences in error table definitions?

Why there are differences in error table definitions?
We are using OWB repository 10.2.0.3.0 and OWB client 10.2.0.3.33. The Oracle version is 10 G (10.2.0.3.0). OWB is installed on Linux.
I created a error table using DBMS_ERRLOG.CREATE_ERROR_LOG in databse.
Here is the layout.
=========
ORA_ERR_NUMBER$
ORA_ERR_MESG$
ORA_ERR_ROWID$
ORA_ERR_OPTYP$
ORA_ERR_TAG$
PROJECT_ID
DESCRIPTION
PROJECT_TYPE
CREATION_DATE
===========
I imported the table metadata into OWB. As I used the table in mapping using table operator, I am not able to see ERR group in table object of mapping.
How do we bring manually created error table metadata into OWB? Is it feasible?
I specified data rule/shadow table for imported table using object editor. I deployed the table via CC.
Here is the layout from deployed ERROR table from DB
+++++++++++++

Any idea ?

There are columns for data rule errors (logical errors) and DML errors (physical errors), I think you probably have data rules on the table..?
To process DML errors you will have to add the error table into a map you may have to reverse engineer it). The error group behavior is only available for processing errors from tables with data rules. Ensure your table operator is synchronized with your design table.

I have Lenovo 3000 N200 0769 with problem in left hinge lcd , the number of it i think (41W5214) 15.4 lcd.
lenove egypt (IBM) was told to me cost 100 $ but in Many sites (hinge) cost betwen 19 $ , 30$ , 80 $
i want to understand why there are a big difference betwen prices , and why the ibm egypt is Highest price...!!!
i was asked ibm egypt can replace (Repair) it , if I bought one by my self from internet , but refuse my Request and told to me you must bought it from egypt ibm !!!
thank you

it`s hinge!!!! just Metal hinge !!??
not hardware like ram or H.d or vga.....etc
original or not it`s nothing important like other hardware must be original
if you see the hinge pic (41W5214) you will know what i mean about 80$ differences in the prices
and
why lenovo Egypt refuse my Request to replace (Repair) it , if I bought one by my self ??
the answer is Forced to purchase an Expensive one from lenovo Egypt "kind of business" and customers not important to agree or disagree
I hope Lenovo tighten the control of the Egypt Branch, with some simplification

Why there are no books for sale in iBooks?

Hej,
I just want to ask everyone why there are no books for sale in iBooks in Sweden. I mean this is really disappointing because I want to buy and read new books and there are no books for sale. If anyone has an answer to my query please reply. Thank you

It's unfortunately an issue of sorting out all of the legalities for apple to sell books in your country and unfortunately haven't been able to do that for Sweeden as of yet. And so your iBooks store will only have the out of copyright (or free) books available for download. I can only assume apple is working to bring the bookstore to more countries, if you really need books you can make iTunes account for a different country but to do so you would need either a credit card or an iTunes gift card from that country.
Otherwise hold tight till they open they iBook store in your country

Why there are two IMG steps provided for Home Page configuration?

Dear experts,
I wonder why there are two IMG steps provided for configuring ESS home page.
1. Cross Application Components --> Employee Self Service --> General Settings
2. Personnel Management --> Employee Self-Service --> General Settings
Both tables contents are also similar.
Why SAP has provided same configuration steps in two areas?

Your first one is wrong. It is under Cross App. Components but not in an ESS node....I am sure it is a typo on your part. Anyways......
It's NOT two steps. It's just the same configuration in two places. It makes it easier to locate for instance if you are in ESS to just have it there. BUT the Homepage Framework is used elsewhere (MSS for example) as well as you can use it for whatever else you like (building an easier interface for other things) therefore, it has it's "true" place up as a "cross application component".
This is very similar to say Benefits. If you look under the Benefits config area in the IMG, you will actually see a lot of ESS settings there that are the exact same ones you see under the ESS node too.
Don't let it confuse you.

Why there are overloaded create methods in Statful bean?

Hi all,
I have a question ...!
Why there are overloaded create methods for Statefule beans? and why not for Stateless bean?
because any way these create methods are for giving referneces of EJB objects.hence, what is use of overloaded methods in stateful bean?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Rahul

Hi Rahul,
Each stateful session bean is tied to a particular client. That means whatever state is passed in during create() is guaranteed
to be available on subsequent invocations. Allowing multiple create methods is a convenience.
For stateless session beans there is no prescribed relationship between the caller and which bean instance is used to handle
an invocation. It wouldn't make sense to allow creation parameters since there would be no guarantee that a subsequent
invocation is handled by an instance containing that particular initialization state.
All of this only applies to the EJB 2.1 and earlier API. Starting in EJB 3.0, there are no longer explicit create() methods.
As you've seen there isn't any benefit to having them in the stateless case. For stateful session beans in EJB 3.0, the
developer can perform initialization by just declaring a particular business method and calling that after first acquiring a
new stateful session bean reference.

Why there are restrictions on EJB, but not on Servlet?

Hi,
There are some restrictions on EJB, for example,
* use the java.lang.reflect Java Reflection API to access information.
* listen on, accept connections on, or multicast from a network socket
* define a class in a package
But I can not find similar restrictions for Servlet. Why?

I understand why there are restrictions for EJB, for example:
* For security: it does not allow "java.lang.reflect Java Reflection API"
* For thread management: user thread in not allowed.
* For portability from machine to machine: file system access is not allowed.
The same issues exist for servlet. But no restrictions.

Unable to add a device (e.g. /dev/cua0) to a non-global zone

Hi,
I've installed solaris 10u4 on a x86 machine with the latest patches, installed with the smpatch utility
The history:
I've installed solaris 10u3 without any patches, a quite minimum installation; I 've created a non-global zone, added a zfs dataset, added networking, add one serial device (/dev/cua0); installed hylafax from blastwave in the created zone using the attached modem on /dev/cua0, all was working fine, except some sendmail issues. Due to issues with samba, which I needed on this machine, I've tried to update the machine, after ending up in dependency hell, due the minimum installation, I gave up. I did a fresh install of solaris 10u4 instead also with latest patches applied with the smpatch utility, the I've created a new zone and want to add the device /dev/cua0 like in the s10u3 installation, but the device doesn't appear in the non-global zone, so I've installed hylafax in the global-zone temporary.
The question, any ideas or workarrounds to bring the async device into a non-global zone again ?
I'm not a newbie in nix like systems (several years with BSD and GNU/Linux), but for solaris I would classify myself as a newbie ;-)
thanks in advance.

Hmm. If that didn't work, then it's possible you're running into a different problem.
But I checked again and this is the one I was thinking of. Toward the bottom, some patches are referenced. I suppose they won't hurt, but I'm worried you're seeing something related to the 'cua' device rather than the general problem of device creation.

Why I "Cannot share fielsytems in non-global zones"?

Dear all,
I've succesfully configured a solaris zone (which for the pourpouse I've called "stefano" just as a test) perfeclty running.
I've just a problem while I'm trying to export a directory as command
share -F nfs -d "test" /export/home/stefano
if run inside the zone gets me this error:
share_nfs: Cannot share filesystems in non-global zones: /export/home/stefano
why it isn't possible to export a filesystem within a non-global zones?
Is there any trics to solve this issue?
Thanks for your attention, ciao everybody!

I don't want to mount an NFS filesystem exported from the global zone
I want instead to share an NFS filesystem within a non-global zone in order to let it mount by some others machine.It simply can't be done today.
NFS interacts very tightly with the kernel. So enabling an NFS server means giving certain kernel level permissions. The simple way to let a non-global zone do this would break the security model of zones. I'm sure folks are working on other ways to do this, but it's not available at this time.
Non-global zones aren't allowed to do everything. This is one of the things they're not allowed to do.
The global zone can share a non-global-zone's data to let other machines mount it. But you need global zone privileges to make that occur. The non-global zone's administrator couldn't do it directly.

Are volume manager commands available inside non-global zones

My application requires usage of volume manager commands to create new filesystem, expand an existing file system inside the non-global zone. Is this supported?
Or the only option is to create filesystem in global zone and assign to non-global zones?

ArunZone wrote:

If you could use ZFS instead, you could delegate a filesystem to a zone and create/modify within the zone.
