Zfs package difference in Global and Non-Global zones

I have a T2000 hosting many zones. The Global zone and all but one Non-Global zone has 3 zfs packages installed SUNWzfskr, SUNWzfsr, SUNWzfsu). Becuase this one non-global zone is missing the zfs packages, kernel patch 120011-14 also didn't install on that single non-global zone.
I am curious, can i install SUNWzfskr, SUNWzfsr, SUNWzfsu on the non-global zone that is missing the packages?
Any ideas how to resolve the kernel patch descrepancy between the global and non-global zone?

patch 122640-05 installs the SUNWzfskr SUNWzfsr SUNWzfsu packages if they are not already installed on the system.

Route between global and non-global zones

Hi Folks,
I haven't been able to find an answer to this question searching the archives, so I'll try here. My global zone gets her IP (10.153.197.n) via DHCP, and I've had to use 192.168.1.n addresses for the non global zones. Is there a simple route statement I can issue to allow communication between the global and non global zones? I'm running Solaris 10 x86 03/2005.
Thanks very much,
-Adam vonNieda

If you're only interested in passing traffic between the global zone and the non-global zones, just add a virtual interface to the global zone.
For example, in the global zone:
ifconfig ce0:4 plumb 192.168.1.x netmask + broadcast + up
Then you will be able to pass traffic between the global and non-global zones.
If you're looking for the global zone to proxy traffic between the non-global zones and the rest of the network, take a look at http://balance.sf.net

Running commands across global and non-global zones

Other than using ssh and public key access, is there better way to run a command in both the global and non-global zone? I need to disable some services (svcadm disable ... ) in both the global and non-global zones.
Thanks,
Roger S.

You can run commands in the non-global zone with the "zlogin" command from the global zone.
Running commands in a non-global zone from a non global zone works only with ssh, (or any other method using network)

Memory between global and non-global

Hi,
I've a Solaris 10 with a Solaris 8 brand zone.
from global zone I run prstat -Z and see:

What is the programming (ABAP) difference between Unicode and non Unicode?

What is the programming(ABAP) difference between Unicode and non Unicode?
Edited by: NIV on Apr 12, 2010 1:29 PM

Hi
The difference between programming in Unicode or not Unicode is that you should consider some adjustments to make on the Program "Z" to comply with the judgments Unicode Standard.
In the past, developments in SAP using multiple systems to encode the characters of different alphabets. For example: ASCII, EBCDI, or double-byte code pages.
These coding systems mostly use 1 byte per character, which can encode up to 256 characters. However, other alphabets such as Japanese or Chinese use a larger number of characters in their alphabets. That's why the system using double-byte code page, which uses 2 bytes per character.
In order to unify the different alphabets, it was decided to implement a single coding system that uses 2 bytes per character regardless of what language is concerned. That system is called Unicode.
Unicode is also the official way to implement ISO/IEC 10646 and is supported in many operating systems and all modern browsers.
The way of verifying whether a program was adjusted or not, is through the execution of the UCCHECK transaction. Additionally, you can check by controlling syntax (making sure that this asset verification check Unicode).
The main decisions to adjust / replace are (examples):
ASSIGN H-SY-INDEX TEXT TO ASSIGN <F1> by
H-SY-INDEX TEXT (*) TO <F1>.
DATA INIT (50) VALUE '/'. by
DATA INIT (1) VALUE '/'.

Difference between deamons and non deamons

Pls someone tell me wat is the difference between deamons and non demons and i know that deamons will run in the background..and pls tell me why they r used...

Actually it's "daemon" (mythologically speaking a little more benign than demons).
A Java program terminates when every non-daemon thread finsihes. Setting a thread to daemon mode simply says that it's ignored for this purpose. It's usually used with background activities that can be abandoned at the end of the program without any need to clean up.
(More widely, in unix, a daemon program is one that runs in the background all the time, from when you boot up the machine to when you close it down.)

Difference between configurable and non configurable finished goods master

Hi
Pl explain the difference between configurable and non configurable finished goods master data.
Thanks
kamala

Hi,
Configurable material are used when you have a large number of combination of parts that go into a product. It means different combinations of the parts for same material. If you maintain a unique material code for each combination , you require a large number of material numbers. KMAT is used in such a case where you maintain just one generic product code. You assign class to this material having all variant characteristics.
A super BOM is maintained for such a material consisting of all possible alternatives. A super routing is also maintained consisting of all possible operations that could be used.
Typically configurable material is used in Made To Order (MTO) environment. However frequently ordered configurations may be planned with a material variant which needs to have a material master record. Thus Material variants may have stock and value. Depending upon characteristic values chosen at sales order entry Sales Order BOM is created. Routing operations are also chosen depending upon which BOM components are assigned to them.
Non configurable materials are like finish, semi finish materials having fixed BOM. A separate/single BOM exits for every finish material.
Revert back for more info.
thanks and regards,
Man

Difference between cumulative and non-cumulative key figures

Hi,
What is the difference between cumulative and non-cumulative key figures and under what conditions they are used. What is snapshort and where it is used.

Hi.............
Basically the key figures are of two types cumulative and non cumulative.
Cumulative are the normal one which you use always and they always bring the new values of the key figures in the delta that is if suppose A has value 10 and after change the new value is 20 then you will use cumulative key figures there, and your delta( new value) will bring 20.
but suppose your key figures field only the change in the prior value that is in this case the delta in the key figure value will bring 10 (20-10- change of 10 )as new value in the key figure A then you will have to model it through the non cumulaitve key figures.
Now
1) Cumulative is for the first case that is if the key figure alwyas brings the new values of the key figure and not the change sin the key fiures value.
2)NCum. value with NCUM value change:
In this case ther is only one field which brings the changes for a particualr key figure and you ahve to define that key figure as non cumulative.
Ex: In case of stock only one filed brings both ingoing value and outgoing value so 10 ,-4,100,-34.....
In this case you will this option and use the key figure here in the space provided.
3) In this case you haev two separate key figures one for the inflow of stocks and one for the outflow of the stocks.
you use one key figure for the inflow and one key figure for the outflow.
The main key figure autiomatically takes care of the logic and gives the correct output upon the summation
net value of stocks( inflow- outflow).
Also do remember in this case the key figure for inflow and out flow are the basic key figures that is cumulative key figures.
A non-cumulative is a non-aggregating key figure on the level of one or more objects that is always displayed in relation to time. Examples of non-cumulatives include headcount, account balance and material inventory. here the aggregation of key figure is based on the another info object
There are two different ways to define non-cumulative key figures:
Non-cumulative key figure with non-cumulative changes:
Before you can define the non-cumulative key figure, an additional cumulative key figure containing the non-cumulative change must exist as an InfoObject.
Non-cumulative key figure with inflows and outflows
There has to be two additional cumulative key figures as InfoObjects for non-cumulative key figures - one for inflows and one for outflows. The cumulative key figures have to have the same technical properties as the non-cumulative key figure, and the aggregation and exception aggregation have to be SUM.
Features of non-cummulative key figures
A non-aggregating key Figure.
Records are not summarized for Reporting
Exception Aggregation is being applied on these key figures on the level of one or more info objects usually with time .
Examples: Head Count, Account balance, Material stock
consider simple senario
Date Net Stock Quantity Sales Revenue
01.02.2005 40 1000
02.02.2005 50 2000
03.02.2005 25 3000
this is the query output if stock quantity has treated as cummulative and non-cummulative key figures
if stock quantity taken as a cummulative key figure
Date NET STOCK QUANTITY SALES REVENUE
01.02.2005 30 1000
02.02.2005 50 2000
03.02.2005 20 3000
RESULT 100 6000
in the above result the key figure has aggregated to the total value that wont give sense to the net stock quantity
if stock quantity taken as non-cummulative key figure
Date Net Stock Quantity (LAST) Sales Revenue
01.02.2005 30 1000
02.02.2005 50 2000
03.02.2005 20 3000
RESULT 20 6000
Hope this helps you..............

Difference between stock and non stock material

what is the difference between stock and non stock material. example of stock and non stock material?

Hello,
Stock Material
Material that is constantly kept in stock .A stock material has a material master record and is managed on a value basis in a material stock account.
Ex: Raw Material.
Non-stock Material
Material that is not held in stock because it is consumed immediately.
Ex: Office Stationary.
You need to create purchase order and accounting document for payment but the stock balance is always zero as it is issued out immediately to the various department.

See the following threads
non-cumulatives KF in reporting
Re: use of non cumulative keyfigure
Re: When do we use Non-Cumulative values?
Key figures:
1. Cumulative Vaules
2. Non Cumulative Values
Cumulative Values:
Cumulative Values are Keyfigures for which Keyfigure Values are must posted in every time unit that reported on (= time period specific Values).
Example:
Revenue
Non Cumulative Values:
Non Cumulative Values are Keyfigures for which KeyFigures are only evaluated for selected time Periods.
Cumulative Keyfigures With Exception Aggregation:
It's a 'normal' KF (with summation, min or max as aggregation behaviour), but you set some exception in this behaviour...for example, you can say that a KF, normally aggregated by 'summation', have to show the max value (or the average, or '0' or something else), that is the 'exception aggregation' when you use it in combination with 0DOC_DATE (or other char), that is the 'exception aggregation char reference'...in this case OLAP processor give to you the possibility to see your KF with different behaviour depending from you use 0DOC_DATE (in our example, MAX) or something else (SUMMATION).
Non Cumulative keyfigure with Associated Single Delta:
If you have a stock KF that is fed from only one (other) movement KF that can assume positive and negative sign.
KF1 (initial) STOCK (non-***.) = 100
KF2 flow = -30
KF2 flow = 70
KF1 (final) STOCK (non-***.) = 140
Non-cumulative key figure with associated in and outflow:
This is the case of 2LIS_03_BF KF stocks fields.
Here, we have the same situation in point 2, but you will have not only ONE flow KF, but TWO, one dedicated to in and another one dedicated to out !
You have to use this scenario if you have no KF that have positive and negative sign, but two KFs each one representing positive (in) and negative (out) logical sign!
KF1 (initial) STOCK (non-***.) = 100
KF2 (out))flow = 30
KF3 (in)flow = 70
KF1 (final) STOCK (non-***.) = 140

Lucreate and non-global zones

Hi - I'm trying to get my head around Live Upgrades now that I've switched to ZFS on Solaris 10 for our test servers. The problem I have is we have a number of non-global zones and when I ran the lucreate command I get a number of warnings:

So ALL my non-global zones live under /export/zones/<zonename> - what do all the WARNINGS mean?
I then applied the Oracle CPU, activated the ABE and shutdown the server. When it came back up non of the zones would start and this seems to be because now all the zonepaths and references to the zones are labelled with CPU_2012-07 on the end. Now I can edit the zone xml files to fix this but am sure this is not the recommended method and something I would prefer not to do.
So basically I think I have not set my ZFS resource pools up correctly to take into account my non-global zones and where I have created them.
My zfs list output looks like this now, unfortunately I don't have the output prior to me starting this work:

OK, so been tinkering with this. I'm not sure this is my exact problem but a few people have reported issues with the following package:
121430-xx
In that it gives the exact same WARNINGS when trying to create an ABE via lucreate and you have non-global zones. So one of the suggestions was to go back to an earlier version of this patch and then someone said it was fixed in version 71 of the patch. So I installed the very latest version 121430-81 and now it fails with a different error. Fortunately this time I have a screen shot of the before and after:

PHP in Solaris 10 and Non-Global Zones: Problem of performance?

Hi friends
We are feeling a poor performance with applications developed with PHP in Solaris 10, with non-global and global zones, while Intel platform (Xeon and Pentium), performance is very good. Difference between both platforms is about 200% aprox, one second in Intel to 9, 12 or 20 seconds in Solaris depending of model.
Our tests were developed in:
1. SF T2000 server Solaris 10 global zone
2. SF T2000 server Solaris 10 non-global zone
3. SF280R server Solaris 10 non-global zone
4. V240 server with 1 GB memory, 1*US III-i 1.0 GHz and Solaris 9 (really this version for test and comparisons)
5. V240 server with 8GB memory, 2*US III-i 1.5Ghz and Solaris 9 (really this version for test and comparisons too)
Intel platforms were:
1. Intel Pentium 4 2GHz 2GB memory, Linux Fedora and PHP 4.4.4
2. Intel Xeon 2 core, 2.33GHz 2GB memory, Linux Fedora and PHP 4.4.3
Versions of products are:
1. Solaris 9 or Solaris 10
2. PHP 4.4.7 downloaded from http://www.php.net/downloads.php
3. Apache 2.0.59
4. MySQL 4.1.15-log
Our php compilation and installation were:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php-4.4.7 \
--with-pear \
--with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl \
--with-gettext \
--with-ldap=/usr/local \
--with-iconv \
--enable-ftp \
--with-dom \
--with-mime-magic \
--enable-mbstring \
--with-zlib \
--enable-track-vars \
--enable-sigchild \
--disable-ctype \
--disable-overload \
--disable-tokenizer \
--disable-posix \
--with-gd \
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2.0.53/bin/apxs \

--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local \
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local
make
make install
Questions:
Is there any problem of PHP with SunFire T2000 servers or 64-bits platforms?
Is there any flag of PHP would be use to compilarion PHP in 64-bits or multithread?
I wait for any comments or suggestions about our problem with PHP compilation and performance in Solaris 10. Thanks a lot.
Sergio.

I presume you compiled php on the Sun server, was this done using gcc or the Sun One C compiler.
If the latter then you can also use the flag: --enable-nonportable-atomics when you run configure

Update packages for newbie in a non-global zone

Hi,
I'm new on this forum and i'm a newbie. Recently, I have install OpenSolaris and I have install a non-global zone (big-zone). So, I can install new packages manually in my non-global zone with a terminal but i don't know if it's possible to use the package manager (same tool when i'm log on my global zone in a gnome-session).
I don't know if it's possible to install gnome in a non-global zone because it's more easy to me to use the package manager tool in a graphical mode. It's very long to write a command for each package that i want update.
Thanks a lot in advance and sorry for my english.

I know of patchadd -G, it is used when one has downloaded the pathch already. I was looking for an automated patch procedure. I use the java gui upadate manager in the global zone but it will not patch the Java Communications Suite installed in a sparse zone.
Sparse zones are more than really cool. I have entire comms suite installed in a zone with SMF for all the components, anything siezes up and it's a few minutes to reboot, piece of cake. Allows me to use one host server whilst all webserver / application instances are on port 80.

Lsof and non-global zones

Hi - wonder if someone could help with an issue I'm trying to troubleshoot. I have a number of T2000 servers all running multiple zones and at peak periods I'm seeing issues with a particular application access a plain text log file. The server although busy is coping well and not particularly loaded. I've wondered if I'm hitting some sort of open file limit on the server but am unsure on how to check this. I can see that ulimit -n reports 256.
I've also been trying to use lsof to see what open files an application has but this doesn't appear to work when logged into the non-global zone, all I get is:
lsof -p 5508
lsof-5.10: can't read namelist from /dev/ksyms
If I run the same command on the global zone I can see various output about the zone but non relate to the applications log file which is currently being written to.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this or what else I could check?
Thanks - Julian.

For security/isolation reasons, /dev/ksyms is not presented to zones. You must run your lsof commands at the global zone. Sorry.
