Re: [osol-discuss] Equivalent of OBP 'probe-scsi-all' from inside
Dear Kyle, The number of cable connected has nothing to do with the controllers that is visible. Even if you are connected through just one cable, the number of controllers visible will be the same. But it seems like what you are asking for is lun masking. That is seeing just some luns and not seeing some. So if this is what you want to do, than in normal entry level storage arrays we will have to implement it on the client side ( solaris box connected to the array ). Hope this helps. -- Chandan Maddanna This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
Re: [osol-discuss] Does Solaris has similar Linux command mount -o
Dear Frank, I use this small script i had written for mounting iso images. hope it helps.. Save the below contents in a file called mountiso.sh #!/usr/bin/bash mkdir $2 lofiadm -a $1 /dev/lofi/1 mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/lofi/1 $2 echo -e \n\t I have mounted $1 under the folder $2\n\n and then give this script file executable permission form command prompt. # chmod +x ./mountiso.sh and use this script to mount iso images... For example lets say you have an iso image called /opt/testfile1.iso and you want to mount it under /testfilecontents Than use the script as follows : # ./mountiso.sh /opt/testfile1.iso /testfilecontents and you are done, you will have all the contents of the iso visible under /testfilecontents folder.

Chandan Thanks for your detailed explanation, but my requirement is a little different from what you have done here, I want to mount an IMG file, not an ISO file, and also I want to specify the mount offset during mounting.

Also Controllers with no devices attached are not visible (in /dev/dsk/c*t*d*, etc.) Even if you are connected through just one cable, the number of controllers visible will be the same. When I say 'controllers' I'm talking about FC interface cards in the Server. Maybe I'm using the wrong term? What do you mean by controller? But it seems like what you are asking for is lun masking. That is seeing just some luns and not seeing some. No. I want to know what luns or devices are reachable on the other end of the cable I've plugged into the board in the server. So if this is what you want to do, than in normal entry level storage arrays we will have to implement it on the client side ( solaris box connected to the array ). This isn't connected to an entry level box. The box on the other end is an EMC Symetrix Array. Hope this helps. It's a start. More info; I started with 2 pairs of servers. Each pair of servers had 4 links (2 for each server in the pair) to the same pool of disks (or luns.) So each server in the pair had redundant links to it's set of disks which it shared with the other server in the pair. I want to reduce this to only 1 server (for now,) and give it the right combination of cables from these 2 pairs of servers, so that it will be able to see all the disks from both pools. So I want to plug in each of the 8 cables, and try to determine which of the disks are visible on the other end. If this was scsi, and sparc, I'd use 'probe-scsi-all' from OBP, to see which disks show up on which cables/ports/controllers. What can I use for FC? I discovered 'cfgadm'. And I manged to get it to list the 4 controllers, and 1 disk on each. However the ID of that one disk doesn't look anything like the WWN of the targets I see in /dev/dsk. On top of that why is there is only one disk? I see 18 targets in /dev/dsk, shouldn't I see 18 disks listed mong the 4 controllers? -Kyle -- Chandan Maddanna This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

[osol-discuss] SXDE based on b77?
I just downloaded the DVD for SXCR build 77. It appears to include SXDE as well. Is this SXDE 9/07? It's a bit confusing because, from the SXDE web pages, I can download an SXDE 9/07 DVD, OR I can download an SXCR build 70b DVD. Only, they are the same DVD. Different download web pages in SDLC, but the download in both cases consists of 3 files which are named the same and are the same sizes. Now, more confusion. With the build 77 DVD I just downloaded, when I select SXDE from the grub boot menu, it boots a build 77 kernel. Is this going to install a build 77 based SXDE?

Re: [osol-discuss] installing updates?
I've upgraded fine using one of two methods. 1) Start the installation from the new CD, at some point you'll be asked if you want to do an initial install or upgrade. Choose upgrade. This still takes roughly the same amount of time as a full install. On one of my machines this meant over an hour downtime. 2) Use LiveUpgrade. This requires an alternative boot partition, but it allows you to upgrade while the system is live. You only need to do a reboot at the end. The nice thing is that if you find something broken you can go back to the previous install.

[osol-discuss] SXDE 9/07 install fails immediately
I am trying to install SXDE 9/07 in a vmware 6.x vm. After stepping through the installation GUI, when I click the last button to begin the install, the GUI comes back immediately with an installation failed error message, *but* the installer is actually still running in teh background. My disk and the dvd drive are still spinning and you can see installf in the ps output. Anyone else seeing this? -- Georgia: Why am I not doing what they're doing?

Re: [osol-discuss] SXDE based on b77?
All SXCE releases contain the SXDE installer (and I believe the extra tools), they just haven't gone through the same extended test cycles respins with fixes that SXDE releases do. If you choose the SXDE installer, you'll get build 77 installed SXDE-style, but with all the newer bits not in the SXDE 9/07 release (which was build 70b). -Alan Coopersmith- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering Mark Drummond wrote: I just downloaded the DVD for SXCR build 77. It appears to include SXDE as well. Is this SXDE 9/07? It's a bit confusing because, from the SXDE web pages, I can download an SXDE 9/07 DVD, OR I can download an SXCR build 70b DVD. Only, they are the same DVD. Different download web pages in SDLC, but the download in both cases consists of 3 files which are named the same and are the same sizes. Now, more confusion. With the build 77 DVD I just downloaded, when I select SXDE from the grub boot menu, it boots a build 77 kernel. Is this going to install a build 77 based SXDE?

Re: [osol-discuss] PulseAudio
Here's a list of features I pulled off Pulse Audio's website: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PulseAudio The main PulseAudio features include: * Per-application volume controls [1] OSS already does that. * An extensible plugin architecture with support for loadable modules. If you look at http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/Modules - they are talking about Pulse audio functionality being implemented as modules - similar to GStreamer. OSS is multiplatform and already has a lot of features that they talk about. * Compatibility with many popular audio applications. OSS is 100% in coverage. Pulse talks about many popular apps. * Support for multiple audio sources and sinks. OSS has virtual mixer and input multiplexer built in. * Low-latency operation and support for latency measurement. Can't get lower than the driver in kernel. * A zero-copy memory architecture for processor resource efficiency. No copy needed for OSS apps. You write your buffers directly to the driver. * A command-line interface with scripting capabilities. OSS also has command line apps and also provide PhP/Perl scripting and support in Java. * A sound daemon with command line reconfiguration capabilities. Pulse is a replacement for ESD and nothing more. With OSS v4 you don't need a mixing daemon because OSS gives you virtual devices for mixing directly. Pulse has network features but I really don't know who would use it. Network audio is now redefined to be VOIP. Pulse audio doesn't support any kind of X Windows protocol or VoiceXML or VoiceHTML so really I don't know what the benefits of their network architecture are. * Built-in sample conversion and resampling capabilities. OSS has superior Sample Rate convertors...infact you can control the quality (high quality vs fast processing) * The ability to combine multiple sound cards into one. This usually never works because each card's crystal freqs and latencies will prevent the application from outputting audio in a phase lock...which means after a while output from one sound card will drift. * The ability to synchronize multiple playback streams. OSS does this as well.we have a Remux driver that allows you to take 4 output streams and create a 5.1 surround stream. 4Front is going to make GStreamer talk directly to OSS and we've already contracted the Gstreamer developers to do this work. Part of the deliverables will be 1) a Gstreamer configuration panel to configure audio devices 2) a Gnome volume panel that exposes all OSS mixer elements - hopefully it will look nicer than ossxmix that comes with OSS. 3) Direct interaction between GStreamer and OSS drivers and no need for any intermediate mixing daemons like Pulse audio or ESD or whatever else. 4) Support for 7.1 multichannel and rates upto 192Khz, 24bit. However there is no problem in having Pulse Audio sit on top of OSS if there is some Pulse Audio app that isn't supporting OSS (I can't imagine there being any such app). Look at the mixing technology within Pulse Audio and then compare it to what we've done in Open Sound: http://manuals.opensound.com/sources/grc3.c.html regards Dev This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
[osol-discuss] ipfilter and tcp timeouts - painful
HI All, I'm running 25 Opensolaris boxes in my business and since we put in a new firewall all of our connections (remotely) to the OpenSolaris boxes disconnection after 1 minute of inactivity. If there is activity, it does not disconnect. We can't change firewall, unfortunately. But I was hoping there was some way to send keep-alives via the IPfilter (or something) else to keep my inactive sessions alive. It's causing us a major problem, so I'm stuck. Is there anyway on OpenSolaris you know of to keep connections to the server alive? Thank you for the help. Anne ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

[osol-discuss] Finding external USB disks
What are the approaches to finding what external USB disks are currently connected? I'm starting on backup scripts, and I need to check which volumes are present before I figure out what to back up to them. I suppose I could just try all the ones that I know about and see which are there (the list is small enough this is actually feasible), but it's inelegant. (On Solaris Nevada, currently build 76 I think). The external USB backup disks in question have ZFS filesystems on them, which may make a difference in finding them perhaps? I've glanced at Tim Foster's autobackup and related scripts, and they're all about being triggered by the plug connection being made; which is not what I need. I don't actually want to start the big backup when I plug in (or power on) the drive in the evening, it's supposed to wait until late (to avoid competition with users).

[osol-discuss] How can I install the CIFS service to a Core Group Solaris 10 install?
I'm trying to build a simple Solaris 10 file server using ZFS + CIFS... That means I don't need X Windows or anything like that, etc. During the Solaris 10 installation I chose the Core Group for the installation so that it doesn't install all of the extra software associated with the other installation groups. How do I go about installing the CIFS service? I've read the page here: http://opensolaris.org/os/project/cifs-server/gettingstarted.html ...and when I run svcadm enable -r smb/server it gives me an error about the service not being found or something like that... (sorry I'm not at the server) How do I go about installing just the core CIFS service/software so I can share my ZFS file systems via CIFS?
