[OmniOS-discuss] Recommended way to keep Zones up to date?

[Philippe]

Hi,


What is the recommended way to update the packages in the global and non global 
zones? 


I have a bunch of vanilla OmniOS zones defined ala:

# zonecfg -z personal
# zonecfg:personal> create
# zonecfg:personal> set zonepath=/Zones/personal
# zonecfg:personal> set autoboot=true
# zonecfg:personal> add net
# zonecfg:personal:net> set address=X.X.X.X/Y
# zonecfg:personal:net> set physical=bge0
# zonecfg:personal:net> end

I used to just run 'pkg update' in the global zone and then in each of the 
non-global zones. Since it is cumbersome, and the non global zones would always 
complain about not being able to update the boot environment, I googled around 
and decided to try the 'zoneadm -z my-zone detach' / 'zoneadm -z my-zone attach 
-u' strategy described in 
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-storage-dev/updatesoftwarezones-450942.html#Upgrading.
 Not only it seemed non ideal to have to bring the zone offline, but once I 
detached it my zone would never attach again due to some incorporation problem 
that I could not troubleshoot due to my limited IPS understanding.

So my question is what is the best practice here? What should I have been doing 
all along (ideally without taking downtime)?

Thanks in advance,
- Philippe

Not sure if you've sorted this out yet, but a similar issue recently
came up on the zfs mailing list for a user using OI:

http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/182191/2013/04/sort/time_rev/page/1/entry/24:310/20130428222753:627B968C-B074-11E2-9F3A-95773EE4A36F/

I haven't tested it, but I assume the solution (install a non-default
krb5 package) would probably also fix the issue for omnios.

[OmniOS-discuss] Trouble getting Supermicro board to see all its PCI-e slots

[Sašo Kiselkov]

I've got a bunch of new Supermicro X9DRW-7TPF+ boards, with on-board
10-gigy sweetness by Intel. The motherboard is loaded with two Intel
E5-2630 CPUs with 128GB of RAM. The boards come in the proprietary WIO
form factor from Supermicro, so to get to the PCI-e slots, I'm using the
appropriate riser cards, to get to them. The risers are:

(looking from the front of the server)
Left-hand side:  RSC-R2UW-4E8
 four x8 PCI-e slots (two to CPU1, two to CPU2)
Right-hand side: RSC-R2UW-2E8R
 two x8 PCI-e slots (two to CPU2)

However, and here's the kicker, I can't get OmniOS bloody to see
anything plugged into any slot other than those that lead to CPU1 (I'm
trying a pair of LSI SAS HBAs). And yet the BIOS sees everything just
fine and I can access the cards, the boot ROMs get installed properly
and I can see all of the attached disks. Allocation of device data above
4G is disabled in the BIOS. The "lspci" utility from
pkg:/system/pciutils doesn't see them either.

Strangely, however, prtdiag sees the slots as populated:

# prtdiag -v
...
 Upgradeable Slots 

ID  StatusType Description
--- -  
1   available Unknown  CPU1 Slot1
2   available Unknown  CPU1 Slot2
3   in useUnknown  CPU2 Slot3
4   in useUnknown  CPU2 Slot4
5   available Unknown  CPU2 Slot5
6   available Unknown  CPU2 Slot6

(the cards work in slots 1 & 2, but nowhere else)

Motherboard manual:
http://www.supermicro.com/manuals/motherboard/C606_602/MNL-1420.pdf

Can anybody help please? I'm seriously out of ideas here...

Here's the dmesg on anything PCI related:
