I'm not sure what the problem is - just upgrade using the cli. But did you read Sun doc 206844, and apply patch 121430-47? This is specifically for systems using SVM.

1. Boot in single user from a cd Insert cd boot cdrom –s 2. Mount your root file system. I will assume that is /dev/dsk/c1t1d1s0. mount /dev/dsk/c1t1d1s0 /a 3. Create a new file system for /var format Select the disk you want to use. Create a partition of the size you want. I’m...

Hi, I'm not familiar with Solaris 10 or svcs - this link might help - http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17358885

boot" is a prom command, and you would use it at run level 0, but don't do this until you have checked and changed the permissions on the file you want to edit. See the man pages for ls and chmod. Use "ls -l file" to see the permissions, and "chmod 644 file" or something similar to change the...

Hi, have you tried this - LINE="11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 etc" echo $LINE$LINE$LINE etc It works for me. Hope it helps, Mike

Stinney, You could try ifconfig for details of network connections: ifconfig –a ndd shows llink status, link mode and link speed : ndd -get /dev/hme link_status 0 is down, 1 is link up ndd -get /dev/hme link_mode 0=half duplex, 1=full duplex ndd -get /dev/hme link_speed 0 = 10 Mb, 1 =...

I've done this a few times - can you tell me more about what you need to know? I assume you are restoring from backups (root file systems and application file systems) onto another server with the same architecture. Are you using Veritas? Disk Suite? What versions of solaris?

You could check that you don't have a copy of ant (in the PATH), with bad permissions, and another copy in /web/ebmo/work70/bin/ant with the correct permissions. See output from 'which ant'.

It is an 'X7110A Sbus TurboGX Frame buffer'. The monitor is an 'X7143A 17" Entry Level Colour Monitor'. I did check Output-device (screen), input-device (keyboard) and try the monitor, but no luck, so your advice is well timed and appreciated. Mike

Thanks CA, I've now got the ok prompt and I'm starting to sort out the video driver. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks CA. I've got a cable and adaptors from the suppliers, so I think that's ok, but I still get nothing in hyperterminal. I just can't get any response from the server. Any idea what I could try?

Thanks djr111. I can't get to the ok prompt to check the env parameters, and I don't have any OS installed. I think the cable is null modem - how do I tell? Regards, Mike

Hi, I've got a test e4500, with nothing installed, and I am trying to connect to it using a laptop (XP) and hyperterminal. There are (according to Google) plenty of people doing this successfully, but I'm not one of them. The server has a serial port, and I'm trying to connect from a com port on...

Thanks Ken. That looks great.

Thanks GLCSerene. I have'nt been able to find anything in the man pages for mt. I used to use "mt ranload...." on an old sequent(Dynix/ptx) server, to unload and load dds tapes from a multitape drive, but that does not seem to be available for Solaris 8/9/10 and DLT drives. Regards, Mike

I've had problems with cron scripts when they run from the command line, because I'm in a korn shell, but cron uses a bourne shell. Putting "#!/bin/ksh" at the top of the script fixes it. But I'm not sure if this applies to perl. Maybe.

Hi I have smc running ok on 2 servers -versions 2.0 on Solaris8 and 2.1 on solaris9. SMC on the server console is working, but I want to install a SMC console on windows. I have found and installed SMC Console 3.0, but it does not connect to the servers (A remote exception occurred during...

Has anyone used a Dell PowerVault 136T on a Solaris 10 server? I'd need to unload and load tapes from a script. Dell don't seem to have a driver for Solaris.

I don't think that solaris is supported on vmware - maybe it is now. For other guest operating systems, to get the drivers for the virtual nic you should install Vmware tools.

Thanks - that's all clear. What would we do without tek-tips. Thanks to Ken too.
