Re: [zones-discuss] dhcp server in a zone with shared IP

2009-02-25 Thread Bernd Schemmer

Hi,

another update:

For further tests I created a new non-global zone with an exclusive IP 
stack and a virtual nic and the dhcp server works there.
I even did not configure the additional privileges like in the other 
zone, so the zone configuration is :


$ zonecfg -z dhcpserver info
zonename: dhcpserver
zonepath: /zones/dhcpserver
brand: native
autoboot: true
bootargs:
pool:
limitpriv:
scheduling-class:
ip-type: exclusive
inherit-pkg-dir:
   dir: /lib
inherit-pkg-dir:
   dir: /platform
inherit-pkg-dir:
   dir: /sbin
inherit-pkg-dir:
   dir: /usr
fs:
   dir: /tools
   special: /tools
   raw not specified
   type: lofs
   options: []
net:
   address not specified
   physical: vnic2
   defrouter not specified

The only thing I had to change to get the SMF service started was to 
remove the credentials from the service:


method_context
   method_credential
   user='root'
   group='root'
   privileges='all'
   /
   /method_context


I do not really know why the dhcp server does not work in the other zone.


regards

Bernd

And now the dhcp server works in the zone.
  


Update: 


Linux and Windows Clients do not get an IP address from the dhcp server in the 
non-global zone; for Solaris I only tested dhcp on a physical machine were the 
zone is running (and that works with the dhcp server in the non-local zone).

The dhcp server works for Windows and Linux Clients if running in the global 
zone

regards

[zones-discuss] Solaris 8/9 branded zones on ZFS root?

2009-02-25 Thread Rich Teer
Hi all,

I have a situation where I need to consolidate a few servers running
Solaris 9 and 8.  If the application doesn't run natively on Solaris
10 or Nevada, I was thinking of using Solars 9 or 8 branded zones.
My intent would be for the global zone to use ZFS boot/root; would I
be correct in thinking that this will be OK for the branded zones?
That is, they don't care about the underlying file system type?

Or am I stuck with using UFS for the root file systems of Solaris 8
and 9 branded zones?  (I sure hpoe not!)

Many TIA,

Hi Mike
The netmask is /24.

Thanks

This implies that you have three different subnets and you either have
three distinct cables going to the machine or you are using three
VLANs.

In the global zone you will have 10.10.30.1 in /etc/defaultrouter.

In zone1's zone configuration, you will have a network configured like
the following (assuming VLAN 10 tagged on on e1000g0):

zonecfg:zone1 info net
net:
address: 10.10.10.123/24
physical: e1000g1
defrouter: 10.10.10.1

In zone2's zone configuration, you will have something like (assuming
VLAN 20 tagged on e1000g0):

zonecfg:zone1 info net
net:
address: 10.10.20.123/24
physical: e1000g2
defrouter: 10.10.20.1


This could also work if they are all on a single 'data link' as seen by 
'dladm show-link', although I only do that in my play situations.

Hi Gurus

I need to setup zones as shown below.
Zone1: 10.10.10.X with default router 10.10.10.1
Zone2: 10.10.20.X with default router 10.10.20.1 And Global zone
10.10.30.X with default router 10.10.30.1

Is this achievable. As shown above, I need the zones to have a
separate default router than  the default router for the global zone.

I don't have the luxury of using dedicated ports to achieve this.
Any suggestions/workarounds are greatly appreciated.

What is the netmask?  That is, the story is completely different between:

10.10.10.x/16
10.10.20.x/16
10.10.30.x/16

And

10.10.10.x/24
10.10.20.x/24
10.10.30.x/24

If it is the second, then you are dealing with three distinct subnets
and life is much easier.   If you really only have one subnet, I'm not
sure there is a solution.

That's correct.  I have some solaris 8 zones running under cluster
control, where zonepath is zfs, and they're doing just fine.
Nothing special had to be done.
