Upgrading FreeBSd when using a zfs-only installation?

You should probably run this just to prevent potential severe pain later.

A system update via freebsd-update or otherwise won't touch whatever bootblocks you have installed. So if you have already installed gptzfsboot and your system already boots ZFS v12 then it will continue to boot ZFS v12 without your touching anything to do with boot blocks. However, with the 8.1 - 8.2 upgrade, you get (inter-alia) ZFS v13 support (I think it's v13 -- all my personal kit is running the stable/8 v28 patchset...) plus equivalent zpool version bump. The 8.1 bootblocks don't understand ZFS v13. If you wish to update the on-disk formats of your ZFS stuff: 'zpool upgrade -a' or 'zfs upgrade -a' then you *will* need to reinstall the gptzfsboot boot-blocks. You don't have to update the ZFS formats, but you'll miss out on various performance and bug-fixes if you don't. Given that the gptzfsboot boot blocks are backwards compatible to older ZFS versions, highly recommended to update the boot blocks even if you aren't intending to upgrade the ZFS bits just yet. Just as an anti-foot-shooting measure.

Shell script termination with exit function in backquotes
Hello everyone, I might be doing something dumb here, but this doesn't make sense to me. When I run the following script, I would expect to see no output: #!/bin/sh exit_prog() { echo -n 'before' exit 0 echo -n 'after' } echo line 1: `exit_prog` echo line 2: echo line 3: `exit 1` echo line 4: The reason I expect to see no output is because 'exit 0' should be called before any of the echo lines are allowed to execute. Instead, what I get on FreeBSD 7 8 is: line 1: before line 2: I don't understand this because 'exit 0' seems to terminate the call to 'exit_prog', but the execution of the script continues. However, when 'exit 1' is called, the script terminates before printing out the last 2 lines. It seems that 'exit' inside a function doesn't work when that function is called with backquotes. I assume it has something to do with the fact that commands in backquotes are executed in a sub-shell, but the behavior is inconsistent.

logging to dmesg from userland
I am looking for a way to write into the kernel message buffer -- the one that dmesg prints out -- from a userland program, to help in relating kernel printf messages to the userland operations which provoked them. (Yes, I am aware of the potential DoS implications: the capability should be restricted to root, or at least to the operator group. I expect to use it only in single-user mode.)

Executes unset PS1 within back-ticks. 3. re-echo's the contents of the PS1 environment variable. Upon execution, we see that despite being executed within back-ticks, the PS1 variable was wiped-out. If commands on FreeBSD under /bin/sh were executed within a sub-shell, said sub-shell would have a separate environment that wouldn't effect its parent. Contrast this behavior with the following scriptlet: dteske@localhost ~ $ cat EOF | /bin/sh - echo PS1=$PS1; : `(unset PS1)`; echo PS1=$PS1 EOF PS1=\[\e[32;1m\]\u@\H \[\e[34m\]\W \$\[\e[0m\] PS1=\[\e[32;1m\]\u@\H \[\e[34m\]\W \$\[\e[0m\] In the above, we've re-executed the same script but with one minor change -- we've placed the unset PS1 command within parentheses, which under FreeBSD's /bin/sh causes the creation of a sub-shell with separate environment and exit code, etc. You can read more on FreeBSD by searching sh(1) for Grouping Commands Together. , but the behavior is inconsistent. When I run the same script on RHEL using bash, all 4 lines are printed: If you make the changes that I've suggested, you'll have consistent execution. The reason you're having inconsistent behavior is because Linux has /bin/sh symbolically linked to /bin/bash while FreeBSD has a more traditional shell (we'll call it bourne shell plus). line 1: before line 2: line 3: line 4: What's going on here? - Max ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org -- Cheers, Devin Teske - LEGAL DISCLAIMER - This message contains confidential and proprietary information of the sender, and is intended only for the person(s) to whom it is addressed.

From there, they leave you no way to finish the thread, in particular to my detailed wannabe FAQ - in reply to you, as it happened - on how folks might solve this issue at: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2010-December/225226.html That report may or may not help gmail users, as Chris Brennan reported gmail provides no way to filter on message headers such as Message-ID, still at least it shows how to determine that these messages are indeed forgeries. Maybe by now parklogic realise that targetting gmail users will cause the most mischief? Evil doesn't necessarily mean stupid .. As for derkeiler.com's apparently arbitrary censorship, you can see the message they removed, two messages before mine by thread, here: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2010-December/225236.html Apart from charging Svein Skogen with 'signature too long' :) I can't imagine why they or their robot might have taken offense. At least at lists.freebsd.org only something pretty extreme may provoke our esteemed postmaster into removing a message, and there's less obfuscation there of email addresses (like parklogic.com) .. for better or worse. cheers, Ian ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
openldap 2.4.23 exited on signal 6
Hi all, I am experiencing the same problem below. Do you have a solution for this? I am running on FreeBSD 8.1. - Hi list, I'm experiencing some problems with and LDAP box which used to run 2.4.21 and has been upgraded to 2.4.22 The box act as a pam_ldap/nsswitch login server for a bunch of boxes, let's say 20, and serve the mail server and web proxy server as a user base. The box has 2G of RAM and has an average load very low, let's say top/systat shows 0.40. The issue is that it happens from time to time every 2/4 days that the slapd daemon exits on signal 6: May 12 01:00:00 polido kernel: pid 27153 (slapd), uid 389: exited on signal 6 Then i restart the process everything looks fine and no corruption seems to happen in the DB. The box is a FreeBSD 8 Any clue is really appreciated.
