Hi, I've got a general question about a storage migration we are
going to be doing soon..
They way things look now, its a 2 node cluster, attached to a Hitachi
9960 storage array. Suncluster 3.0, Solaris 9, Using Cluster Volume
Manager 3.2.. The quorum device is one of the 9960 Luns.
We will be migrating that storage to a 9980 array. We will be
migrating the data by attaching to the new storage and mirroring all
the vxvm volumes to the new array, and then breaking off the old...
Its not a huge deal just time consuming..
The question I have is, I know this gets a little trickier with
Cluster. After doing lots of reading... below is my procedure. Does
this sound correct? Is there anything I'm missing or I should look
out for?
0. Cross fingers.......
1. Storage guys make new luns available.
2. devfsadm/cfgadm them in..... run through format and label each one...
3. run scgdevs to update global devices.
4. run scdidadm -r to update /dev/did entries.
5. Make sure they are the same on both nodes
6. scsetup, 1,1 Add new quorum device.
7. confirm with scconf --pvv | grep Quorum
8. scsetup. 1,2 Remove the quorum device that was on 9960.
9. Veritas stuff to mirror disks.. (vxdctl enable, vxassist mirror...
etc...... )
10. Once mirroring finishes break off mirrors.
11. devfsadm/cfgadm out the old storage
12. scgdevs
13. scdidadm -C to cleanup old entries.
Anything else? Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks in advance..

Thanks to everyone who helped. A few people sent me the patch and Barnard
Christopher sent me a link to ftp.cs.tu-berlin.de that has all patches sun
has released. Great tip.
The problem I had was that the vendor would not support their software on
anything higher than 112963-22. They claimed that higher patches broke
their software. I can't say if it's true or not. But since I have to run
their software and 112963-22 fixes the security vulnerability in linker,
then that's what I have to do. I had loaded 112963-23 to fix the
vulnerability, but 22 will do as well.
I will pursue with the vendor, but that's a longer term goal. Right now, I
just need to get their software up and running.

Does anyone have patch 112963-22 laying around? It's for Solaris 9. This
patch fixed a security vulnerability in the linker. To fix this problem, I
had applied 112963-23, but now I have a new application that won't work on
112963-23, but will work on 112963-22. And SunSolve doesn't have 112963-22
any longer.

I have an app that under previous versions of the OS ran out of inetd.conf.
The vendor has confirmed that it will run under Solaris 10 just fine. So
I put the needed line into the inetd.conf file and ran the inetconv command,
which generated the .xml file in /var/svc/manifest. But what I am missing
is the step to get it recognized as a service by svcs, svcadm, etc. Since
none of these commands recognize my entry, I can't enable it...
Any help is greatly appreciated. TIA.

Dear Sun Managers,
I am trying to set up an automatic mailing of support reports from one of
our servers on a customer site
I have tried but to no avail using sendmail configuration and was wondering
if someone could talk me through this from scratch?
Architecture is:
A single Solaris server maintained by us
An SMTP gateway maintained by the customer
I need to send mail from the server externally to our support teams
I have tried many different iterations of the same thing and just can't get
it to work?
SUMMARY:
Many replies (along with the flurry of 'out of office' autos) all hinged on
the same thing
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf includes the lines for 'smart' relay
# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DSsmtpgateway.customer.com
Where smtpgateway.customer.com was the fully qualified name for the customer
SMTP gateway server
An entry for this was also placed in my /etc/inet/hosts file
#
# MAIL SMTP Gateway Server
#
10.35.96.40 smtpgateway smtpgateway.customer.com
#
Stop and restart sendmail
pkill -HUP sendmail
All of which I'd tried before but which had failed
/usr/lib/sendmail -v support@mycompany.com </dev/null
Reported that the mail was queued on smtpgateway.customer.com but I never
got it.
Your replies confirmed I wasn't going mad so tried emailing to an internal
account of the customer
/usr/lib/sendmail -v username@customer.com </dev/null
Which they reported getting without delay
So in the end it is permissions on the customer SMTP gateway server which I
need to sort out
Thanks for all the replies and sorry if I've done a 'suck eggs' explanation
here but thought it best to keep it as complete but simple as possible
Darren

I was able to do ufsdump from server A to tape drive without problem.
But when issing ufsdump remotely from server B to A, the ufsdump will
overwrite
the Server A ufsdump dump.
I have tried to mt -f /dev/rmt/0 eom after ufsdump from server A either from

Any tip to make it work will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to :
Chamkura, Balki" <Balki.Chamkura@sabre.com>
The trick is to use mt rew before issing mt fsf command.
I used mt fsf alone and it always give me I/O error.
The fsf will position the tape drive to next ufsdump. If you have more than
one ufsdump, make sure you count them accordingly.
Thanks,

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Dear SunManagers,
I am looking for the best practices for selection of
raid types in veritas file system on Unix/Solaris.
Some of the points I am
looking for is:
(Assuming that all the disks are either 36GB/72GB in size,
and there is no budget constraints.)
1. I need to have 100MB-500MB of file
system which will have user data which type of raid I should opt.
2. I need
to have a large file system (say 100 GB+) for an Oracle database which is
getting high IO, what type of raid I should select.
3. I need to have a large
file system, which will be having small user files which is again having high
IO rate.
4. I need to have small file system (upto 5 GB) which will be having
fixed type of files not changing much.
There can be some more cases....
If
these inputs are in form of a document, that will be great. Else, please
share
your views in this regard. I will consolidate the inputs.
Thanks and best
regards,
SunAdmin

Hi,
I'm in the process of updating several machines to the recent version of
sendmail; however I seem to be having issues finding a binary package.
I've checked sun.com and their individual companion package download
site does not list sendmail as an available package. I have also
checked sendmail.org and sunfreeware, nether seem to have packages
available.
Could someone please recommend a place to grab this resource or suggest
an alternative MTA, which is compatible with Solaris? The machines will
only be transmitting outgoing mail.
Regards,
Leif

I get following errors while applying Sol8 Kernel patch 108528-29. I am
currently at 108528-27 and
need to apply this before I can go to 117350-28. I got only one clue from
sunsolve that 109079-01
has conflict with 108528-29 but I do not have that one installed anyway.
