A T5220 machine is stable for me after some patches to the cbus(4) driver family, which work around issues that look like firwmare bugs and prevented LDOM guests from working. These fixes will be in 6.3. It looks like these machines would fit your requirements? It's essentially one generation up from the T1000. The firmware versions I am using on my T5220 are: SP firmware 3.0.12.8.a SP firmware build number: 108523 SP firmware date: Fri Mar 11 07:19:16 PST 2016 SP filesystem version: 0.1.22 hypervisor_version = Hypervisor 1.10.7.h 2016/03/11 07:13 obp_version = OpenBoot 4.33.6.g 2016/03/11 06:05 post_version = POST 4.33.6.g 2016/03/11 06:15 status = OpenBSD running sysfw_version = Sun System Firmware 7.4.10.a 2016/03/11 07:45 There is one known outstanding issue with softraid(4) boot inside LDOM guests, again due to a firmware bug. This patch probably won't make 6.3 as it potentially affects many machines and it is too late now to get it tested properly before release: https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-tech&m=152085114214080&w=2 But softraid(4) boot from physical disks works fine without this patch.
SunBlade 150 to take at Lyon, France and ideas about 3 T1000 to replace, if possible.
Hello, My labs is trashing 1 Sunblade150 + Soekris 1401 from 2003 purchase. Yesterday morning, she was in good state, booting OS. Do you think she could usefull to someone in your project. Anybody close to me (Lyon,France) can pick up her ? In another plan, I need an advice : I want to replace 3 Sun Enterprise T1000 running OpenBSD (4Gb RAM/6 Cores 1Gh/Various SATA HDD) as our labs SSH gateways. Their main problems are non redondant power supply that disqualify them with our datacenter policies. Some list readers have an idea about an hardware able to replace them ? I am looking for OpenBSD hardware compatible 1/2U racks boxes, redondant PSU, with preference for another all but amd64 arch with LOM/RAC/IPMI management hardware, in less than 6kEUR budget range. Usually, my T1000 manage tunneling/forwarding for 20 ssh users, with 250Mb/s network streams. I suppose that most recent Loonsong or Octeon hardware would be able to do it easy, but I am unable to find any local resellers here, in France, outside for Ubiquity edgerouter that came without redundant PSU. I asked a quote to Rhino Labs for 2 Octeons SDNA boxes, without success. Helas, SPARC with ORACLE offers are not in my budget. Last ask, if I can replace my T1000, I will give them or I could keep them for you online and with SSH ports opened for one OS and another one for ALOM. Then, she should be power cycled 2 times by year (with notifications) but will stay in a safe datacenter environnement (CC.IN2P3) and will most probably will run smoothly most of the time. My only request then would be acceptance for your dev to respect our RENATER chart[1] and let me keep an admin access to her ALOM. I will do basic hardware maintenance cannibalizing spare T1000.
