NFS problems on Linux client when Solaris HOST crashes

2003-01-29 Thread Grindell, Joan M.
I hope i've sent this inquiry to the correct address. The other night our SUN system running Solaris 2.6 crashed. Attached via NFS mount were a couple of LINUX machines (each was running SLACKWARE 2.2.16). When the SUN box crashed it appears to have hosed the linux machines. We couldn't log

I am under the impression that all maintenance needed has been applied (z/VM SuSE). I needed some examples to cross check with those who actually have a working model. Maybe we have a misconfigured subnet. I'm just trying to rule out as much as possible. -Original Message- From: Adam

How do you update a system you cannot boot (SuSE 7.2 in this case)? The docs on the CD of maintenance I have say to 'run yast2 from the installed system' which is impossible, since I cannot get it to install. I have a ton of patches on the one maint CD I recieved. I was even able to use this to

Steve, I'm not aware of anyone using Ditto for this purpose. It may very well work, but I personally can't say. Page 50 of the Distributions Redbook details, step by step, how to download the starter files and write them to tape on a VM system. Perhaps try that and see if it works better. Or,

Joan, These were Linux/390 systems? Or Intel Linux? (Just curious where you might have gotten the Slackware.) NFS servers going down is well-known to cause problems with the systems that have NFS file systems mounted. As Eddie Chen pointed out, you can specify soft on the mount parameters,

The first IPL record must be the next record on the tape when the IPL is issued. This error shows that it is not. Check your tape position. If you rewind the tape before you write the IPL record and then rewind the tape just before the IPL you will avoid this error. Stephen Frazier Oklahoma

James, What I would recommend doing is this: 1. IPL from the tape you created to start the install. 2. Start the install process again. When it gets to the point where the DASD volumes are mounted, stop. 3. Start another telnet/ssh session to the system. (If you try to break out of yast, I

SLES7 mmap problem on s390

There is a reproducible memory mapping problem with the s390 SuSE linux setup we have. The bug occurs when two processes have private, read-only mappings of the same file and both processes page in the same page at the same time. The PTE for that page gets incorrectly marked dirty, which causes
