I have a fresh install of Solaris 11 Express on a new SSD. I have inserted the old hard disk, and tried to import it, with: # zpool import -f <long id number> Old_rpool but the computer reboots. Why is that? On my old hard disk, I have 10-20 BE, starting with OpenSolaris 2009.06 and upgraded to b134 up to snv_151a. I also have a WinXP entry in GRUB. This hard disk is partitioned, with a

Hi unfortunately VirtualBox does not work yet in a Solaris Dom0: I installed VirtualBox beta and it runs fine on bare metal. Unfortunately the necessary driver does not load automatically in a xVM Dom0. It can be loaded manually but it looks like it does not work in a Dom0: bash-3.2# modinfo | grep vbox # this is a one time task: bash-3.2# cp /platform/i86pc/kernel/drv/amd64/vboxdrv

Hello, There is a feature of zfs (autoexpand, or zpool online -e ) that it can consume the increased LUN immediately and increase the zpool size. That would be a very useful ( vital ) feature in enterprise environment. Though when I tried to use it, it did not work. LUN expanded and visible in format, but zpool did not increase. I found a bug SUNBUG:6430818 (Solaris Does Not Automatically

Hi all, We are considering moving our VSS database from a Win2K server to a samba server. All clients are Win2K clients. I used the VSS tool "testlock.exe" to make sure the native lock mode can be used. The test was successful, and I saw that an SMBlock transaction was performed, and a reply_lockingX was replied. When I opened a VSS database on the samba server and started to use it -

Hi all; We have a Solaris 10 U9 x86 instance running on Silicon Mechanics / SuperMicro hardware. Occasionally under high load (ZFS scrub for example), the box becomes non-responsive (it continues to respond to ping but nothing else works -- not even the local console). Our only solution is to hard reset after which everything comes up normally. Logs are showing the following: Jan 8

Hiya, Is there any reason (and anything to worry about) if disk target IDs don''t start at 0 (zero). For some reason mine are like this (3 controllers - 1 onboard and 2 PCIe); AVAILABLE DISK SELECTIONS: 0. c8t0d0 <ATA -ST9160314AS -SDM1 cyl 19454 alt 2 hd 255 sec 63> /pci at 0,0/pci10de,cb84 at 5/disk at 0,0 1. c8t1d0 <ATA -ST9160314AS -SDM1

We have recently moved our VSS database from windows 2k to samba, initially all looked fine but have come accross a problem. Quite often VSS complains saying it can't write to "names - acess denied". The file its refering to is names.dat in data/ (for those that know VSS) I believe this to be some sort of locking issue. Sometimes getting all other clients to quite VSS solves the

Hello, I am using wine on RH9. I am running Visual Source Safe like thus wine --ssexp.exe THe VSS GUI starts OK. the Visual Source Safe database is on Windows Partition. This Windows Partition is mounted on my Linux like thus: mount -t nfs -o rw,nolock 192.168.0.77:/mnt/server/Share /mnt/vss I am able to launch a VSS session : I can successfully check out and check in files (I point my

Good Afternoon All. Please forgive me if this is an often-asked question, but ... We're trying to get the ability to have users in the same UNIX group be able to check-in and check-out files from a VSS repository. All users in a defined unix group should be able to copy, edit, and delete any file created by any other user in that group. As most of you probably already know, this works fine

Hi, we have SunFire X4140 connected to Dell MD1220 SAS enclosure, single path, MPxIO disabled, via LSI SAS9200-8e HBA. Disks are visible with sas-addresses such as this in "zpool status" output: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM cuve ONLINE 0 0 0 mirror-0 ONLINE 0 0 0

I have a raidz2 pool with one disk that seems to be going bad, several errors are noted in iostat. I have an RMA for the drive, however - no I am wondering how I proceed. I need to send the drive in and then they will send me one back. If I had the drive on hand, I could do a zpool replace. Do I do a zpool offline? zpool detach? Once I get the drive back and put it in the same drive bay..

Hi all, I''ve got a solaris 10 running 9/10 on a T3. It''s an oracle box with 128GB memory RIght now oracle . I''ve been trying to load test the box with bonnie++. I can seem to get 80 to 90 K writes, but can''t seem to get more than a couple K for writes. Any suggestions? Or should I take this to a bonnie++ mailing list? Any help is appreciated. I''m kinda

As a napp-it user who recently needs to upgrade from NexentaCore I recently saw "preferred for OpenIndiana live but running under Illumian, NexentaCore and Solaris 11 (Express)" as a system recommendation for napp-it. I wonder about the future of OpenIndiana and Illumian, which fork is likely to see the most continued development, in your opinion? Thanks.

Just a positive experience I would like to share with you : testing is great on paper but very tedious to apply because nobody wants to run manually the tests by hand. Last week I have discovered zentest, an automated test process command line utility. That was at the beginning (hopefully) of a new project. Believe it or not, I have started to code most parts of the application without using

Good day to all, I have been using samba for many months now. And I find it very useful. We have samba-2.2.1a running on a linux operating system. Perhaps before, I haven't had a problem running a samba service since only few user make access to our samba server. Now, many groups requested for a samba account for file sharing purposes. 1 particular group requested to host their visual source

I don''t know if VSS has this capability, but essentially if it can temporarily quiesce a device like a data base does for "warm standby" then a snapshot should work. This would be a very simple Windows side script/batch: 1) Q-Disk 2) Remote trigger snapshot 3) Un Q-Disk I have no idea where to even begin researching VSS unfortunately...

Hello I have a bit of the strange problem. Our developers use MS VSS to check in/out files to or from Solaris drives mapped through samba. When they "set current working directory" to a mapped Solaris drives VSS doesn't recognize files named with uppercase letters converting them into lower case. As a result VSS denies permission to change these files. Looking at the same files in

With a wine about a month old, running in managed mode, when I ask Visual Source Safe for a revision history, the window doesn't appear, but vss's main window hangs as if it's waiting for me to close the history window. Not much to do at that point but kill Wine. (I also received the error err:tooltips:TOOLTIPS_Timer How did this happen? at about the same time, but that wasn't

Hi, I install a new 4 Port GBit Server with centos 6.3 and I'd like to use nic bonding. Searching for a good how to pinted to this page: http://www.how2centos.com/centos-6-channel-bonding/ My question: Is this the current, good way to bond the 4 ports? The other question: What should I set on the cisco switch for the Port-channel options? As far as I understand for performance and

Did you ever find a solution for using a linux working directory with VSS? Thanks, Charles
