Re: [osol-discuss] System hangs with mirrored root drive

System only hangs when it is mirroring two drives to the rpool. System has 8 drives in with multiple partitions on each. Both drives that mirror to the rpool have Solaris2 partition type and both have the active partition set. Years ago it was recommended that zpool be built only with the whole device and not with a slice from the device.

Sure, I understand when Sun said that OpenSolaris was open source (although most of it is released under binary license agreements), and that OpenSolaris is supposed to be the RHEL/Fedora model for Solaris 10 development. you're confusing opensolaris with opensolaris the distribution. opensolaris is a set of consolidations and communities around them. most of the code in those consolidations is indeed opensource check for example the ON consolidation http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+onnv/ or the X consolidation http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Project+x-cons/ Opensolaris the distribution is a sun project and while it is the result of project indiana inside the opensolaris community, most of it was driven by sun's business need. Finally, lets say youre right and both opensolaris the community and opensolaris the distribution were a merketing stunt from sun. so what? what's the problem with that? i think that not only was it a perfectly valid move but has benefited a lot of us greatly. we can not see the guts of the best os in the planet. Solaris 10 was before opensolaris was released and it is of no concern to the opensolaris community However, I personally see OpenSolaris as a marketing gimmick. For one, see open binary licenses in place of source code. Two, what is even the need for a development model like RHEL/Fedora? OpenBSD and FreeBSD don't offer a OpenBSD-Open or FreeBSD-Open. They simply have current, stable, and release. It would have been much simpler, in my opinion, to have a Solaris 10-release, Solaris 10-stable, and Solaris 10-current. Sun released Solaris 10 for free so there wasn't any reason they couldn't have followed the current, stable, release model. Instead they opted for a marketing gimmick which is not going as planned. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

The man page explains all of this. Yeah, so what happens if my SVR4 package doesn't deliver any files, but does all the work in those scripts instead? Then you'll have to re-create your package. I still disagree about two main things, and those are that 1. there should be no pre- and postinstall scripts, i.e. only files should be delivered That's fine, we'll just have to disagree. See this blog entry for more information: http://blogs.sun.com/sch/entry/pkg_1_a_no_scripting Except, it isn't quite correct say that pkg(5) only expects files to be delivered. It also allows for groups, users, drivers, SMF related items, and legacy SVR4 information. 2. that SMF should be *ABUSED* as a backdoor for executing those. You view usage of SMF as an abuse, but I view it as a change of execution context. pkg(5) doesn't say that you can't have scripting, it just says that you can't have scripting as part of the package execution context. The fundamental problem is that the IPS packaging team believes that the definition of a PACKAGE is ONLY that of *FILES*, while customers (aforementioned military, banks, insurance companies, and fortune 100 companies in general) believe that a *PACKAGE* is a UNIT OF CONSISTENTLY REPEATABLE, ENCAPSULATED *WORK*. Every packaging system has a different definition of what a package can/should consist of. pkg(5), like other systems, has chosen a different definition or view of things. There is nothing stopping you from continuing to encapsulate the set of repeatable work you desire to, but you will have to do so in a different way than you used to. If you must cause pain, how about developing some sort of method to automatically migrate pre- and postinstall and pre- and postremove scripts to one or more one-time SMF methods? There are no plans to do so at this time, although that might be possible in the future. Given that most of those scripts didn't work reliably in the past in all execution contexts, I doubt the conversion would be as useful as you might imagine. With that said, there has been a discussion of how to simplify delivery of these scripts to ease transition.

I have seemingly succsessfully been able to configure a zfs iscsi share via iscsitgt, yet the performance is just not up to par, so I decided to move on to trying out comstar without to much testing of the configuration. I setup comstar with tpg to limit iscsi traffic to my dedicated storage network nics. I initally was attempting connection with my Citrix Xenserver 5 server. When I would attempt to write data to the LUN it would reboot my OpenSolaris storage server. Then I removed the tpg from the target and was able to transfer 30GB or so of a VM to the LUN with great performance. I ran that VM for 2 days, then decided to transfer another VM to the LUN. It started to transfer then it rebooted my OpenSolaris storage server again. I disconnected the Xenserver and destroyed the Xenserver SR. I then connected my MS initiator on my windows box, and attempted to transfer 40GB of data and it also rebooted my OpenSolaris storage server. Under the assumption that maybe comstar was the issue, I decided to try NFS. I setup a small 5GB NFS vol. I was not able to establish a connection. So I anon=0 the NFS vol.

I believe the cases for individual code changes to Solaris would be similar. Where this really breaks down is the patch model - what Linux kernel developers think of as a patch is a diff to the kernel sources to fix an issue - something you apply with the patch (or on Solaris gpatch) commands and then rebuild. Solaris kernel patches on the other hand are distributed as a set of all the binaries that changed since the last baseline (either the release of the OS, such as Solaris 10 in 2005, or the last rejuvenation round, when a kernel patch series was declared frozen, and a new one started that required you have the last one from the old series installed first as your baseline). If 12% of kernel changes require hand-tuning, and every Solaris kernel patch before long ends up with a hundred or more kernel changes, then you've got at least 12 kernel changes in each patch that require hand-tuning, and you've got a variety of previous versions that they could be patching up from, so you end up with 100% of Solaris kernel patches requiring hand-tuning to support hot patching, plus a complex test matrix to verify it correctly patches in from the various states you could patch from, resulting in longer, slower, more expensive test cycles before customers can get their fixes. Thanks for the clarification. Seeing as the kernel is open source now, I suppose the model for patch distribution could be changed in the future, though that might be a lot of work. Having the option of doing a hot-patch versus a reboot may be one route (and I suppose this is how linux currently works for ksplice enabled systems), but as you said this would still involve the same increase in testing. Its not really something I need, and I guess if there isn't demand for it, it remains one of those cool but unnecessary technologies that is just too much work to be practical. In the end, Sun found in practice that using Live Upgrade to install patches to another boot environment and limiting downtime to just long enough to reboot into that, was good enough, and a good deal less risky, for most customers. (Less risky, since not only do you avoid changing the running kernel, but you have the old boot environment to rollback if something goes wrong, without having to double the effort by having hot-unpatching, and know that if there is a need to reboot/power failure/panic/etc., you'll be running the same code/state without wondering if the installed image exactly matches the hot-patched in every single way.) I think this is a good argument for server usage, and it is almost always a better strategy for desktop users. In any case, at least I don't have to reboot after I install an update to adobe reader (cough cough, windows xp) ;-) Also, remember that now with fast reboot, the outage window is even shorter.
