Re: [zones-discuss] Interfaces to automate zone system
Hi Tomas, Tomas Heran wrote: Hi Zoram, you might want to take a look at Project Duckwater - Simplified name services management: http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/duckwater/. Now, Duckwater's command for creating and managing name services configuration - nscfg(1M) - doesn't know anything about zones, but I can add an RFE for us to be able to export a name service profile (the set of all name service configuration) into a file which you can later import somewhere else - e.g. you would configure name services in global zone, then exported this configuration (using nscfg) into a file and later imported this file (again, using nscfg) into your non-global zone(s). Would that work for you? This sounds promising. My basic requirement is that I should be able to non-interactively install and boot a zone (why? because interactive install/boot is too tedious in a multi-node environment like Sun Cluster). The user, if he wishes to, can explicitly enter the sysidcfg(4) parameters for the zone. But we expect that in most cases the only thing that would be different would be the root password (it would be unwise to have the same root password for global and non-global zones), and for the rest of the parameters use either a. global zone settings (name service, nfsv4 domain, security policy, timezone,...) or b. reasonable defaults (e.g., terminal) Stable interfaces to query name service configuration of the global zone (or any zone for that matter) will be a great help.

[zones-discuss] Interfaces to automate zone system identification
Hi All,
I'd like to automate system identification for a zone when it is freshly
installed. In most cases, I'd like to keep the same settings for domain
name, name service, security policy, etc., as in the global zone.
I'm wondering if there are (C) library interfaces to determine which
name service is used in the global zone, so that I can make the
following entry in the zone's /etc/sysidcfg file:
name_service=service{service specific parameters}
So, I'd like do something like:
name_service = get_name_service()
if (name_service is NIS) {
/* get domain name */
/* get yp master */
} else if (name_service is NIS+) {
/* get NIS+ details */
} else if (name_service is LDAP) {
/* get LDAP details */
} else if (name_service is DNS) {
/* get DNS details */
} ...
Also, is there a library interface to get what the security_policy
setting is in the global zone? So I want to do something like:
security_policy = get_security_policy()
if (security_policy is kerberos) {
/* get kerberos details */
} else if ...
...
Thanks,
Zoram

It sounds like simply copying in whole or part the relevant files from
the global zone and making the appropriate modifications to
$zonepath/root/etc/.sysid* (forget the exact file name) would be a
workable approach. This would have to be done from the global zone.
Yes, the program will only run in the global zone, and only once after
the new zone is installed.
However, I'm wondering if we can count on the presence of /etc/sysidcfg
on the global zone. Once a system has been initialized, we could safely
remove /etc/sysidcfg and there would be no problem, right?
I'm wondering if there are (C) library interfaces to determine which
name service is used in the global zone, so that I can make the
following entry in the zone's /etc/sysidcfg file:
To the best of my knowledge, such an API is not even available to
query in the same zone (e.g. global zone querying global zone). Such
an API that allowed cross-zone queries of this information would cross
isolation boundaries that have been held rather dear with zones.
No, I am not looking to cross zone boundaries here - just obtain all the
necessary information from the global zone and apply them to the freshly
installed NGZs. Of course, if the user wants to specify sysid settings
that are different from those of the global zone, she would be allowed
to do so. But if she just wants to re-use the same name service setting,
security policy setting, etc, then that's when I'd like to query the GZ
for those informations.
name_service=service{service specific parameters}
So, I'd like do something like:
name_service = get_name_service()
if (name_service is NIS) {
/* get domain name */
/* get yp master */
} else if (name_service is NIS+) {
/* get NIS+ details */
} else if (name_service is LDAP) {
/* get LDAP details */
} else if (name_service is DNS) {
/* get DNS details */
} ...
This approach, much like the one used by sysidconfig, is broken. What
happens when you use LDAP for everything except hosts and DNS for
hosts? If you are coming up with a new solution for setting up naming
services, please don't repeat this mistake.
Yes. I am aware of the complications, and no we're not trying to come up
with new naming service solutions :) I just want to know how to query
the settings when the user says use the same settings as in the GZ.
You may want to take a look at zonemgr. It will do quite a bit of
customization of a zone without interaction and may be just what you
are looking for.
I'll take a look. Can zonemgr query the settings if the user didn't
specify them?
Thanks,
Zoram

Re: [zones-discuss] Setting process.max-file-descriptor per zone?
Hi Steve, Thanks for the suggestions. Steve Lawrence wrote: We currently don't have a mechanism for stating the default rctls for all processes on a per-zone basis. Are these apps still being started out of inittab in the zone? Yes. These are apps from the largest database software maker ;) If so, can you run a script from inittab or from /etc/rc0.d to run the commands: prctl -n process.max-file-descriptor -t basic -r -v x `pgrep -x init` prctl -n process.max-file-descriptor -t priv -r -v y `pgrep -x init` If you can run these commands before init starts your legacy applications, then they will inherit init's process.max-file-descriptor values. This sounds like an approach we can use because we can't modify the apps themselves. The problem is that the app's daemons on startup call sysconf(3C) to get the max number of descriptors (fd_max) and close all descriptors from 0 to fd_max. This can take a very long time when, for example, fd_max is 2.15G! I'm guessing that the rctl tuning is only desired for the legacy apps, and not for all processes started by init. This is correct. Thanks, Zoram The best thing to do would be to stop using inittab, and instead create a service for these legacy apps. This service can be assigned to a project, and the project can specify the rctls as desired. You could also start the legacy apps from an /etc/rc?.d script, and set the rctls in the script: cat /etc/rc3.d/S99startlegacyapps #!/sbin/sh prctl -n process.max-file-descriptor -t basic -r -v x $$ prctl -n process.max-file-descriptor -t priv -r -v y $$ ..start legacy applications... exit 0 -Steve L.

(FailOverServices) The instances will be spread over three to five nodes so one could manually balance the load. (planned actions) Would it be preferable to use one zone for each ora-instance instead of making then HA-aware in the global zone as traditional HA-services? (Ora in zones might be more integrated in SC3.2) Some obvious tasks is acctually easier to manage in a zone, like local users, roles, profiles, system resources and so on. Any comments and suggestions on the different approach is much appreciated. /Best Regards Ulf This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org -- Zoram Thanga::Sun Cluster Development::http://blogs.sun.com/zoram ___ zones-discuss mailing list zones-discuss@opensolaris.org

Re: [zones-discuss] forgot to inherit a directory
Use zonecfg(1M) to edit the inherit-pkg-dir resource of the zone so that the application directory is included. The setting is now persistent. Reboot the zone now to have the desired directory mounted. Thanks, Zoram Michael Barrett wrote: Let's say you forgot to inherit an application directory from the global zone when you first created a local sparse zone. Do you have to manually lofs mount the global zone directory of interest into the local zone every time you reboot, or can you somehow change the local zone definition and reboot it to get it to inherit the directory from now on?
