We have a Sunfire 4800 with 3blades of 4 900Mhz processors and 8Gb RAM running Solaris 8 and Oracle. We have a discussion going regarding increasing performance by adding processors. If you run a task with 2 processors will the task run 2x faster with 4 processors, 4x faster with 8 processors...
Has anyone set up a NT/Win2k server to print to a Solaris print queue from the the NT command line? If so, how did you do it? What are the prerequisites? Where can I find documentation?
Thanks,
Steve
I have EMC FC4700 on Sun Solaris 8 and SCSI Clariions on Solaris8. It seems to me you need EMC ATF software on Solaris to make it work. It uses an atf.conf in conjunction with the sd.conf. The ATF software is easy to install and set up. The installation guide is pretty straight forward.
Dan,
Are all your clients backed up under one group? If so you can have the completion report that tells you what completed and what failed in a email. I have three groups, each with several clients. I just look at the email in the morning and it tells me what succeeded. You can put your email...
Been there and done that! Two problems. It only runs under Xwindows and it doesn't work with and will apparently never work with Veritas Volume Manager.
Now that I got such a great response on the top, how about disk activity? I have been using the iostat -xdn and the Veritas Volume Manager vxstat -d -i 5 -c 6. Each gives good data but I am looking for something to run at the vt100 terminal similar to the top tools that operators, dba's, etc...
The SCSI for the internal drive and the DVD, I believe is "single ended". Check to make sure the 3583 is also single ended. If it is differential, it won't work.
Try the JetDirect Printer Installer for Unix. You can find it at the HP web site. It works for HP LaserJet as well as other line printers. Set up the printer in UNIX, then set up the printer from Oracle.
You can back up an Oracle database while it is running if you put the tablespace in backup mode (alter tablespace <tablespace name> begin/end backup;)You can then backup the database with Legato then restore the database files when needed. I use this procedure along with EMC Mirrorview and Snap...
I have been using Legato Networker for about 5 years in the UNIX environment. We recently upgraded to Sun/Solaris8 servers. I bought a copy of Veritas NetBackup with support to compare with Legato Networker. Networker is a product that is easier to use and is more adaptable to custom backups...
The WISS error sounds like you hosed the index.
Run nsrck -F then start networker.
Run nsrim -X.
Otherwise you will have to delete the indexes and rebuild from scanner as needed. I'll send you the procedure if the above doesn't work.
I have EMC CLARiiONs, both fiber and SCSI connected to Sun servers. I am using SE Toolkit for performance monitoring. Because I am using Veritas Foundation Suite, SE Toolkit shows zero disk activity. vmstat and iostat do not show the disk activity accurately. Does anyone know of a disk...
The SCSI card on the Sun E420 is a dual channel ultraSCSI. The SCSI interface on the CLARiiON is wide SCSI. There is a specific set of prerequisites to installing ATF and those are set.
I am using a Sun E420R, Solaris 8 with a Diff SCSI 20 Slot CLARiioN with two SP, 16Mb cache,populated with 18Gb 7200 RPM drives. It seems to write slow to the disks on the CLARiiON by 2x for example:
I found three files:
786440192 system01.dbf
786440192 system02.dbf

After six weeks of working with support, I just conducted a test running nwrecover on moe-g. I selected /u01 231409 files 9932MB, /u02 136127 files 7687MB and /u03 134922 files 6497MB. Performance was acceptable. The system created the worklist and began to read from the tape in less than 3...
