Howdy, I am attempting to isolate the location of a memory leak in a 4GL program, and have hit a bit of a snag. When I LD_PRELOAD libumem and run the application server, "::findleaks -fdv" reports numerous leaks: CACHE LEAKED BUFCTL CALLER 0000000100b49068 15 0000000100ef2d50 fdcon+0x6c4 0000000100b50028 1 0000000100b72ac0 fdcon+0x6c4 0000000100b49068

Howdy, I installed Nevada build 49 in a parallels VM on my intel mac mini, and when I run the following DTrace script: $ cat follow.d #pragma option D flowindent; pid$target:::entry, pid$target:::return {} $ cat format.cmds disk 0 exit $ dtrace -s follow.d -o follow.out -c "/usr/sbin/format -f format.cmds" dtrace: script ''follow.d'' matched 13641 probes The system

Howdy, I am trying to migrate several scripts to use application defined types, and am running into a few issues. When I attempt to run a script with a application defined type, it looks like the DTrace preprocessor is getting angry with me: $ cat view.d #include "httpd.h" :::acceptconnection { this->addr = (conn_rec *)copyin(arg0,sizeof(conn_rec *)); } $ dtrace -C

Howdy, I just installed the crossbow snapshot from opensolaris.org, and bumped into an issue when attempting to create a virtual nic: $ dladm create-vnic -i 192.168.1.101 -d ni0 2 dladm: VNIC creation failed: No such file or directory (unknown diagnostic) When I truss the process, it looks like it''s failing when attempting to open the vnic pseudo-device: 100878/1:

Howdy, I was playing around with the malloc/free D script provided by Philip Beevers: http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=4224&tstart=15 And decided to change the free:entry probe from: pid24169::free:entry / sz[arg0] / { printf("Freeing %p (size %d)\n", arg0, sz[arg0]); sz[arg0] = 0; } to: pid24169::free:entry / ! sz[arg0] / { printf("[ *

George Wilson put together a list of ZFS enhancements and bug fixes that were integrated into Solaris 10 update 3, and I was curious if there was something similar for update 4? There have been a bunch of reliability and performance enhancements to the ZFS code over the past few months, and I am curious which ones were integrated into the latest Solaris 10 update (I can''t seem to find a

Howdy, We are running zones on a number of Solaris 10 update 3 hosts, and we are bumping into an issue where the kernel doesn''t clean up connections after an application exits. When this issue occurs, the netstat utility doesn''t show anything listening on the port the application uses (8080 in the example below), but connections are still listed in the ESTABLISHED state: $

Howdy, I'm looking for a piece of software I can use for accounting printers shared on a Linux box via Samba, to Win98/2K/XP machines on a domain. In other words, I want to be able to give user a print quota (say, $3.00), then charge them 10c per page they print from a Windows client to a printer shared from a Linux box running Samba. If they're out of quota, it doesn't print

Howdy, I just finished reading through the Crossbow presentation: http://blogs.sun.com/sunay/resource/crossbow.pdf And have one question. If you create a virtual NIC with dladm: $ dladm create-vnic -d bge0 -m 0:1:2:3:4:5 -b 10000 1 Can you then add vnic1 directly to the zone? e.g.: zonecfg -z zone1 zonecfg:zone1> create zonecfg:zone1> set zonepath=/zones/zone1 zonecfg:zone1> add net

Howdy, Is there a method to get the number of elements in an aggregation? Are the results stored in an aggregation guaranteed to be in any type of order? Thanks for any insight, - Ryan -- UNIX Administrator http://daemons.net/~matty

Hello all, The "Secret Agent" final release of the Asterisk Management Portal is now available for download: http://amp.coalescentsystems.ca/ This exciting new release adds a great deal of functionality and flexibility. Thank you for all the contributions and feedback! 1.10.007 - Added AMP Users (multi-department, basic multi-tenant) - Added incremental upgrade script

Hello, First, please let me thank you to Ryan Gahl and Jerod Venema for their patient help - really appreciated their input - I couldn''t have done this script without their support. Today I released a dialog script based on scriptaculous and prototype. A demo can be seen here: http://net4visions.com/dev/dialog/dialog.htm . Please see the readme and changelog file for details. Your

Howdy, I wrote a pair of scripts to measure file and NFSv3 operations, and thought I would share them with the folks on the list. You can view the script output by pointing your browser at the following URLs: Per Process NFSv3 Client statistics (inspired by fsstat/nfsstat): http://daemons.net/~matty/code/nfsclientstats.pl.txt Per Process File Operations (inspired by fsstat):

A small script to see what SCSI commands are being issued by a system: http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/chrisg?entry=scsi_d_script Still work in progress as I needs to handle larger CDBs but it is a start, since I don''t have a disk that big it is not a problem for me yet. Also getting the return scsi packet is a hack but so far I can see no alternative short of knowing about all the

One of our Solaris 10 update 3 servers paniced today with the following error: Sep 18 00:34:53 m2000ef savecore: [ID 570001 auth.error] reboot after panic: assertion failed: ss != NULL, file: ../../common/fs/zfs/space_map.c, line: 125 The server saved a core file, and the resulting backtrace is listed below: $ mdb unix.0 vmcore.0 > $c vpanic() 0xfffffffffb9b49f3() space_map_remove+0x239()

We are running a process on a CentOS box, and periodically it dies. Does anyone happen to have any recommendations for a lightweight tool that can be used to monitor processes and restart them if they happen to fail? I looked at monit, but it appears to be a bit much for restarting a process. Thanks for any feedback, - Ryan

Hi, I have mentioned before that we have added some sdt dtrace probes in SAX, our APL interpreter. Encouraged by Angelo and Jignesh, I have created a small document (5 pages) describing our experience with it, together with some problems we have encountered and some scripts we use for pretty-printing dtrace outputs. The said document can be found at

Can someone, more learned in the ways of dtrace point me at what to look at to help understand why the kernel on one machine is using tons of memory, while another machine doing the same task/same user load is not. swapinfo for the "afflicted" machine shows RAM _______Total 16384 Mb RAM Unusable 73 Mb RAM Kernel 9226 Mb RAM Locked 2 Mb RAM Used

Hello, Is there any way to correlate bugzilla bug IDs with the ones that are listed in RPM changelogs? For example, I'm pretty sure that bugzilla 14106 <https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14106> is the same bug as referenced in this RedHat changelog entry * Mon Oct 21 2019 Isaac Boukris <iboukris at redhat.com> - 4.9.1.10 - resolves: #1763650 - Fix spnego downgrade --

Howdy, I just got done reading the following article on using DTrace to debug C++ applications: http://developer.sun.com/solaris/articles/dtrace_cc.html And was curious if there is a way to use DTrace to grab the number of bytes free() returns to the application? The malloc(), free() and brk() manual pages don''t provide a whole lot of info on what happens when free() is called, and I
