[OpenIndiana-discuss] Console login/No login for user
Hi, i just installed openindiana on a virtual machne, but i cannot login with the user name just created during the installation (it says Login Failed). And if i try to access with root it says: Roles can only be assumed by authenticated users. Now i'm just wondering if i can access via console to user account and check if i just mispelled username/password. I tried ctrl+alt+f1 but it doesn't change on text mode. Anyone can help?

The default user usable for interactive login on the Live media is jack with password jack. Depending on how you installed the OS, this user may be present in the resulting installation (and should be removed for security concerns at least); instead, there should be an unprivileged user with password that the installation wizard asked of you. So you login with an unprivileged user (it may be possible that it fails with some weird characters in the password), and then you can use pfexec and/or sudo su - to elevate privileges. In your case, try to boot the system in single-user mode, this allows root to be precessed as a user for duration of repairs and login interactively. To boot single-user, press e in the GRUB menu to edit options for the selected boot environment, select the kernel line and press e again, and append -s for single-user mode. Then enter to save and b to boot. Alternately, you can boot from live installation media, import your rpool: # zpool import -f -R /a -N rpool # zfs mount rpool/ROOT/openindiana and fix up the root user-role in /a/etc/user_attr (replace type=role with type=normal) - this should allow root to always be an interactive user, but would be against new security habots ;) # zpool export rpool HTH, //Jim Klimov ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] illumos KMS Hackathon in Germany
I was working with the binaries that Ken Mays supplied so I don't know
what configuration he used when he compiled them. The location of the
file in question is in:
/usr/sfw/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
/usr/sfw/lib/amd64/libgcc_s.so.1
and it was there before I tried installling gcc4.4.4.
I also tried compiling the binaries myself, without much success
unfortunately. After weeding out missing file error messages with the

be able to build the libdr.so but when trying to build the libkms.so I

[OpenIndiana-discuss] OI-based PACS DICOM server
Folks, just thought you'd like to know that the Veterinary Sciences Faculty of the University Of Torino, Italy, is now running an open source PACS DICOM server based on OpenIndiana, administered by yours truly. Pretty much, it revolves around a zone that contains a copy of the DCM4CHEE open source Java PACS, itself running on JBoss and a PostgreSQL 9.1 DB. Due to budget restrictions, my hardware choice was the HP Proliant Microserver, with 8GB RAM and 2x250GB mirrored root disks, along with 2x1TB mirrored 7200RPM SATA drives for the tank pool. All of these disks run a weekly scrub and are SMART monitored. For now we rsync backups of the data to a mirrored 2TB LaCie network disk (on the other side of the building is the best I could do), but I'm not too happy with that solution and would prefer something that is SMART capable. The OS and zone have been dumped to USB media and are manually backed up (no modifications are made to the system itself during normal operation, we really only care about the patient data). No hardware issues at all. It recognized everything fine. Deployment took two hours and then we were loading data (I had preinstalled everything in the zone at home and migrated it, greatly simplifying the process). It runs very very well and has been performing fine for the past six weeks. During the summer break we loaded the 640GBs of X Rays, CT and MRI scans that the hospital has acquired over the past eight years. We have had no problems so far and are very happy with it. This system also carries the Weasis DICOM viewer as one of the deployable packages, so it has a centralized update point for all the workstations that use that viewer in conjunction with the PACS. The staff is happy because they can finally find all of their diagnostic images in one place, instead of going through three or four systems by hand. Makes getting all of your thesis data together a breeze ;). I have been asked to give a small presentation on this system both for the Faculty and for some Vet congresses that are coming up. In the past I was very clear with the Profs about the fact that this service is made possible by the unique features of OpenIndiana, with zones, ZFS and its networking stack, I will be sure to stress this point during the presentation as well. I hope I get the chance to install several similar systems in the future. Thank you all, such a system would not exist without your continued effort.

2012-08-28 9:19, Jim Klimov wrote: Hello all, Did anyone test in practice the LiveUSB for oi_151a5 GUI image? I'm trying to flash a 1Gb USB token from windows using the procedure in OI wiki (with liveusb creator utility), and the resulting image does not boot - only shows GRUB _ and flashes the cursor. After some tests I ended up with an incredible working toolchain, albeit possibly sub-optimal: I tried to get some bootloader boot the ISO or USB images straight from files on a USB storage device while back at home, so I could go to the shop and lockpick the notebook to test its compatibility with various OSes. Ultimately this idea has partially failed, but I had a lot of fun doing it today. So: The USB HDD now has a 32Gb FAT32 first partition and is bootable with syslinux, which can potentially boot ISO images with memdisk, but is VERY slow doing this. While a 110Mb clonezilla image took about a minute to transfer into RAM, the OI livecd took about 20 minutes and the something stacktraced and the machine rebooted. Then I googled around and got grub4dos which is booted from the syslinux menu, and in turn loads the ISO image quite well and quickly (but fails to boot a USB image from file). This works until svc:/filesystem/root:media tries to find either a cdrom or usb distro media, and no longer sees the CD image instantiated by GRUB. Maybe I did something wrong here?.. The Live media does not include a pcfs driver, so I can't mount a loopback device with the ISO image from my HDD either. However when I created a second partition and dded the USB image onto it, booting the ISO image with GRUB4DOS from file on FAT32 partition *did* get the LiveCD to the point where it found the USB media and continued to boot into GUI okay. GRUB chainloading into the partition with the USB image from both grub4dos and the Solaris-compatible grub image on the ISO did not boot the system, speaking of Error 13. Lucky :) I guess the partition should have included some GRUB stage, it has many zero-bytes as the starting part. So with this setup I got the OI_151a5 image booting on my dying notebook at home, and it worked in the shop as well. So soon we'll be closing the purchase of the Lenovo E335. How lacking is USB3 support? Would the ports not work at all, or can they drop back to compatibility modes like USB1 or USB2? Can they be passed through as is to a VM (VirtualBox, KVM) that would have drivers to support them better? ;) The USB3 ports did not work with the OS - not even for the mouse. One port is powered, so the mouse laser shined there ;) Also the WiFi driver is missing, at least from the LiveCD - apparently the laptop uses a BCM 4313 WiFi abgn chip, IIRC. Does anyone know off the headtop if that driver is in OI, or where it can be found?

Ours seems a little resource intensive and I'm not sure if it's reliable for large 500gb datasets. No, there probably isn't. Encryption is fairly quick process, though for large data volumes it can take its toll on system resources. You could, in the interests of lowering the data volume, do incremental sends and receives - this would only transfer blocks which had changed between two successive snapshots. Piping it though a fast compressor might also be a good idea prior to encryption, as this might lower the data volume by around 50% (see lz4 or lzo compression algorithms for this). Reliability is assured, so you can sleep peacefully. Send streams are AFAIK checksummed too, so no need to worry about your bits getting corrupted on the way. Anyway, you can always just use something like GPG which hashes the encrypted output by default and checks integrity on decryption, something like this: # zfs send fs@snapshot | gpg -c --cipher-algo AES --digest-algo SHA512 /media/usb/stream.gpg Hope this helps.
