    ypservers file vs. ypservers map?

    So I know that if I don't have a ypservers file the machine broadcasts for a NIS server/slave on the subnet. If there is more than one slave on a given subnet, will the machine broadcast again in case of a failure of the server it is bound to? I'm trying to achieve failover without having to...

    ypservers file vs. ypservers map?

    OK, I know they aren't the same thing. So far I have: If you don't have a ypservers file you must start up ypbind with a -broadcast option and have a NIS master or slave on the same subnet. Makes sense. Now, if I have a ypservers file, are those the only servers that the machine will bind to...

    Using HP Openview to send email notifications for node outages

    I generally just use a script that calls a facility like mailx to send the mail. There may be a more elegant way to do it but that works.

    CPU error ????

    Just to pile-on I've seen errors on my servers like this in the past and they are generally memory errors. VTS should show which stick is the problem but you may have to make it run multiple passes. Generally in the past I've seen it show the memory bank that is at fault but I don't see...

    Setting cronjob time

    From the Solaris man page. "Example 3: Specifying days of the month and week This example 0 0 1,15 * 1 would run a command on the first and fifteenth of each month, as well as on every Monday." I just wanted to elaborate on my post and reiterate that LKBrwnDBA's example will not fulfill...

    Setting cronjob time

    LkBrnDBA, have you tested this? Not to be a pain but I think I tried this once and my job ran on the first 7 days of the month and on every Sunday. The man page has a similar example. To accomplish the task, unmlobo, you may want to just add some logic to your script (or script the job as it...

    Directory Structure List - Please help!

    Starting a process

    /usr/sbin/inetd Usually you can do a man on a command to find out where it is, that is if `which inetd` doesn't tell you. You should check the man page before you start killing/restarting stuff anyway. That particular process does have a run control script that starts it automatically when it...

    Problem with dfstab

    Does the machine with the dfstab entry know how to resolve the names of the machines you are having problems with? Brian

    DP5.10A + DAT24 drive problem

    I don't think this is the right forum for you, but before I say for sure, what is "DP"? Brian

    Process becomes slower as it runs, why?

    Not knowing anything about the process I'd say look at if it is writing any log files or if it is searching any files that are growing. These files would probably be reset when the process restarts and that might explain the performance change. Just a WAG Brian

    How to list all cron jobs.

    If this is something that runs daily you can check /var/cron/log or /var/cron/olog for history. That may give you some insight into what is happening. HTH Brian

    http MONITORING

    I've used Big Brother to monitor websites. It worked very well. Check it out at http://www.bb4.com. I have no affiliation with them, just a satisfied user. I don't know if it'll integrate with OV, though. HTH Brian

    Users in OV Dynamic Views?

    I know you can setup users in Network Presenter, but is there a way to setup usernames and authentication in Dynamic Views? Thanks Brian

    ssl certificate

    Isn't that usually configured in the browser? Unless you have a certificate that has been generated for a different hostname than what your clients are accessing. Then they will get an error generally. Like you have a certificate registered for the servername (like "server1.company.com") but...

    'No Context' Problem

    The only time I've seen messages like the one you describe it has been when the application is not properly deployed. Basically it's saying that it can't find the page on the server. I'd try taking that instance out of your cluster and testing it independently/offline. I think you'll find that...

    How can I know the number of managed nodes in my NNM

    The fields are OBJECT ID(s) OBJECT STATUS IP ADDRESS OBJECT IDs seem to be arbitrary numbers assigned by NNM. OBJECT is hostname (if any), STATUS is self explanitory as is IP ADDRESS. Some nodes (interfaces) don't have IP addresses (like switch ports) so they won't have an IP Address...

    How can I know the number of managed nodes in my NNM

    If you do the ovtopodump -l you should have fields that say: NUMBER OF NODES: <some number> NUMBER OF MANAGED NODES: <some other number> I think the latter is the one you want. HTH Brian

    Solaris networking script

    I was thinking you could probably write a script that would insert an "at" job into the machine to run an appropriate ifconfig command that would make the changes. Use a file with 3 columns to run the script with hostname, interface, new_ip as your seed data for the ifconfig command, also a new...

    Local accounts on an NIS network - can't set passwd

    In the nsswitch.conf man page it is implied that there will be problems with the function of `passwd` unless your passwd entry is formatted a certain way. It also says that it can be overridden by using the format you supplied. It maybe worth a look, though. HTH Brian
