Hi Message 3:
  Tracking for Tcp/ip connection did not need any third party tools. only you need to start the inetd deamon with -t option in the file /etc/init.d/netsvc.
  For ant thing further contact me...

Hello Managers
Thanks for all the responses and most of them are working.

Try the command 'script'
man script
script makes a record of a terminal session.When you run a script it actually forks a new shell and starts logging to a file (default "typescript").Both the commands you enter and the output of those commands will be logged to typescript.When you have everything you want to capture, just 'exit' the shell and 'script' will terminate leaving you with a log of the whole session.

I received several answers, all stating that it isn't supported, but
here is the work around. I followed these few steps and I was able to
change the zone names.

It's not supported, although there's RFE's in for it. You
can do it manually by editing the files in /etc/zones -- change
the zonename in the .xml file, and the zone name in
/etc/zones/index. (I haven't tried doing it on a running zone,
but it works for me if the zone is halted first.)

Cheers,

Jim

Hi Guys,

Are there any freeware out there that can track all the tcp/ip
connections coming into a Solaris system & generate some kind of report?

Thanks

Has anyone migrated filesystems from one disk to another (higher capacity)
using Solaris volume manager?

I have the following setup:

Solaris 9
A 69GB disk which has been partitioned into one large partition and put
under Solaris Volume Manager (d101)

A one-way mirror has been created from d101 (metainit d100 -m d101).

Soft partitions have been created on d100

I would like to migrate this to a pair of 146GB disks.

I think I can do the following:

- insert new 146GB disk into server (c0t3d0)
- create device files (devfsadm -c disk)
- format disk for one large partition
- metainit the disk to be d102
- metattach d100 d102
- allow sync
- metadetach d100 d101 (d101 is c0t2d0 a 69GB disk)
- metaclear d101
- Pull the disk that was d101 (c0t2d0) from the server
- Cleanup old device drives (devfsadm -C -c disk) to remove the old
c0t2d0 device drivers
- Put a new 146GB disk into server at c0t2d0
- Create devices (devfsadm -c disk)
- Format disk for one large partition
- Metainit disk to be d101
- Attach d101 as a submirror for d100

Dear prospective sunmanagers poster,

Before posting, please stop for a minute and consider whether or not your
posting is suitable for Sunmanagers. The list is not intended for just any
possible question related to managing Sun equipment or software. The only
appropriate questions for Sun Managers are time-critical questions about Sun
system management problems that are not answered in the manuals or system
documentation, or in the Sunmanager's FAQ.

In particular, the following kinds of postings are not appropriate:

- Subscribe and unsubscribe messages. Point your web browser to
http://www.sunmanagers.org instead.
- Test messages of any sort.
- Discussions about anything, including discussions about the list
itself, or followups to any posting, with the exception of a single
summary to one's own question summarizing the email responses. Use
instead one of the Sun newsgroups, eg. comp.sys.sun.admin,
comp.sys.sun.hardware or comp.unix.solaris.
- Replies to any SunManagers posting, even if the reply is a
separate question. Please send a separate message instead.
- Postings not related to Sun equipment or software. Use the
appropriate newsgroup or mailing list instead. For example,
if your question concerns "sendmail", please consult the
comp.mail.sendmail newsgroup or the www.sendmail.org website.
- General UNIX or network questions. Use the appropriate newsgroup,
eg. comp.unix.questions instead.
- Postings that are not time-critical. Use one of the Sun newsgroups,
eg. comp.sys.sun.admin, comp.sys.sun.hardware or comp.unix.solaris.
- Questions answered in the FAQ. Read the FAQ instead. If you're
not sure if the question is in the FAQ, please check before asking.
You can find the FAQ at:
ftp://ftp.cs.toronto.edu/pub/jdd/sunmanagers/faq.html
ftp://ftp.cs.toronto.edu/pub/jdd/sunmanagers/faq
- Questions that are answered in the manuals, http://docs.sun.com or
system documentation. Read the manuals instead. If you're not sure
if the question is answered in the manuals, please check first!
- Job postings, requests for jobs, sales pitches, etc. Use the
appropriate newsgroup instead.
- Please, no postings in HTML, rich-text-format, Microsoft Word,
Word Perfect, or any format that some people on the list would not
easily be able to read. Also, please post in English only; most
of our readers are not able to read other languages.
- Please do not BCC (blind carbon copy) the list. Many of our
list members depend on the list address appearing on incoming
mail messages, so that they can automatically distinguish list
traffic from other traffic.

Please note that we are not saying these postings are necessarily "bad" or
"stupid". They are not. They are merely inappropriate for this list. There
are many other lists and newsgroups for which the question may be completely
appropriate, and we encourage you to submit the posting there.

Note also that your question may have been already answered in the past.
Please spend a minute or two checking one of the Sunmanager's archives,
for example, at http://www.sunmanagers.org, or one of the archive sites
mentioned in the FAQ.

Here's an example of an appropriate question:

I have a SPARCserver 99 running Solaris 9.8.7 with the fizbozz patch
and the jumbo kernel patch version 158. After I installed
Futzbarworks version 3.2, the machine locks up every couple of
hours. When it locks up, the following message appears on the
console:
zz0: out of futzbufs. Barworks table is full.
I need to get this machine working as soon as possible. Please
help! Send email and I will summarize to the list.

To submit a question, email it to sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org. When you do
this, please indicate all relevant information, including machine type, OS
version and patches. Collect email replies, and then summarize them to the
list. If your question was posted with a subject of "foobar", for example,
then please post your summary with a subject of "SUMMARY: foobar".

Why are we asking that only certain types of postings be submitted to the
list? Very simply, the reason is this: we want the list to have a very
short turnaround time, and the only reasonable way to do this is to keep it
unmoderated. But this means that every message sent to the list ends up in
the mailboxes of all the list members. To keep all the members of the list
from being deluged by inappropriate messages, we need everyone's co-operation
in ensuring that only appropriate messages are sent to the list.

Please remember, Sunmanagers is a public forum: we have thousands of
subscribers, all posts are archived on numerous archive sites, and these are
searchable via various web engines. A great number of people will read your
message. Keep in mind that the person reading your message may be your boss,
your future boss, your customer, your seminar instructor, your colleague, or
someone else that you work with today or may find yourself working with
tomorrow. We do not want you to embarrass yourself by sending an
inappropriate or poorly thought-out posting.

Regards,

John

I have 2 fibre cards plugged into a SAN switch.
I have 3 tape devices also plugged into the same zone.
Why do I see 72 links in /dev/rmt?
# ls -lat | grep "/pci@8,700000/SUNW,qlc@2" | wc -l
72
I assume I just use the /dev/rmt/6 when I reference any kind of backups?
Can this directory be cleaned up or is this normal?
Thanks

Fellow Managers, 
I am a bit of a newbie to Solaris and SANs so I need some help here...
I have a Nexsan Ataboy2 fibre connected to a Sun 280R with Solaris 9, latest 
rec. & sec. patches. Emulex LP9002 single port fibre HBA. Latest Emulex lpfc 
driver and utility kit installed. topology=0 in /kernel/drv/lpfc.conf (loop).
Sun SAN Foundation Suite NOT installed. /kernel/drv/sd.conf updated:
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=0 lun=0;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=0 lun=1;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=0 lun=2;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=0 lun=3;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=0 lun=4;
name="sd" parent="lpfc" target=0 lun=5;
Booted boot -r.
I want to connect an extra fiber disk to the server and I have created a simple
three port zone on my Brokade 200E SAN-switch. When connecting the server and the 
two fibre disk arrays to the switch, the switch sees all WWNs and report valid 
info for all these. However, the 280R does not see any disks. boot -r done. The 
zone is a private zone and I'm almost certain that this is set up correctly (it
works fine if I connect two Win2003 servers and an other Ataboy2x to an identically
configured zone).
The output below is generaten on the 280R with the Ataboy2x disk array directly
connected.

Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
I will summarize.

Hi everyone,
I don't know if someone though about it or not.
Basically I want to make a script that generate a Baseline Performance
figures for all our SUN servers about CPU, Disk, Memory and network
So later if someone complained about the server performance we can run
the script and compare the result with the old result to see if there is
any problem.
I searched the internet but I didn't find anything
So far I create several C codes to do some malloc (memory test) and
thread (CPU) and I use time command to see how long it takes for the
program to run
Do you have any better suggestion?
Best Regards,
