Hi Craig;

Thanks for the follow up.

1. Unless a solaris patchset added a /tmp cleaner, we absolutely do not do 
this. Our kiosk code requires readonly access to a perfect copy of /tmp/SUNWut 
- anything that messes with that would be horrible for us.

2. Yes, I was personally working on a station, uttsc kiosk session active and 
usable, and 26B floating around. However, today, we watched a different similar 
scenario, where a user was working, GOT the 26B floating around and unable to 
proceed. Removed card, the solaris dtlogin came up. Re-inserted their card and 
got back to their session as normal, no more 26B. It's not consistent.

3. Java was upgraded from 1.5 to 1.6.0_23 Solaris x86 32-bit.

4. Will review utsession -p when we get our next 26B. We may have one, have a 
remote user who left for lunch with one but I can't reach right now.

5. All of our sessions are kiosk sessions, so I'd say yes.

6. /etc/opt/SUNWut/jre points to /usr/java, which is the newly installed 
1.6.0_23:

/etc/opt/SUNWut/jre/bin/java -version
java version "1.6.0_23"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_23-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 19.0-b09, mixed mode)

7. Yes, updated all dtu's to GUI4.2_140993-06_2010.10.08.21.53.
Both members of FOG equally updated. Just double checked. Just checked on 
version info on DTU's and they do represent that level.

8. Don't believe we have any disk space issues. Our 'smallest' member of the 
fog reports no more than 25% disk utilization.

9. Very custom kiosk script in perl. However, it essentially runs 2 utactions 
and completes with it essentially calls uttsc. The final perl is:
system("/opt/SUNWuttsc/bin/uttsc  ...");

10. Again, no /tmp cleanup processes at all.

Thanks,
Devin

5.1.1

Hi Devin,

Just to be clear, users are actively using the client and can continue to do so 
when the On Screen Display pops up with 26B?  OSD code of 26 is basically 
telling you the DTU is waiting on the Xserver to start sending it traffic.

I've seen a few different causes for code 26.  Wrong Java version, crashing 
Xservers, a cron job that cleans out /tmp periodically and deletes critical 
session files /tmp/SUNWut.  But I don't think I've ever seen a case where the 
user could keep on using the session.

A few questions.

What does utsession -p report when the OSD is on the screen?
Does it only happen to kiosk sessions?
Does /etc/opt/SUNWut/jre point to a 32 bit version of the 1.6 JRE?

Did you update the DTUs with the new firmware image?
No disk space issues?
No cleanup scripts in crontab that might be clearing out /tmp Are you using the 
built-in Kiosk Script for SRWC?  Any customizations there?
