    Restoing State Databases

    I'm wondering if I can restore state databases I previous had on the server. This is what happened: I have my / filesystem on disk01. I had created a mirrored volume with disk02-disk05. My root file system got "messed up" and I had to reinstall the OS on /. I have backups of the server on...

    output of vi during RSC or tip session

    Here something I found. When I am vi'ing a file, it is only when I am at the last line of the file where the output gets giberish. When I'm at the top of middle of the file, things work fine. Y'all experience this when tipping or using RSC console?

    output of vi during RSC or tip session

    I connect to my SunFireV480 via the RSC console (I also use telnet and tip). In any cases, whenever I'm RSC'ing or tipping to a server, I get a bad output on my screen when I VI a file. So far I have set TERM=ansi and EDITOR=vi. Please help. This server is headless and this is my only form...

    Adjust the output of RSC console

    That did it. So basically what I did was this: Since my normal telnet session to the SUN box works just fine (meaning the format of the output to screen looks good), I did a set on that session to figure what the difference was as far as the TERM variable was concerned. And sure enough, the...

    Adjust the output of RSC console

    I am using RSC v2.2 on an Enterprise 250 box. I have the RSC client installed on a windows2000 workstation. When I use the RSC GUI interface from the workstation and open a console to the Sun box, I notice that output on the console it not exact. For example, when I do a man page on a...

    Issue Stop-A from telnet session

    Nope, haven't seen that. I'm assuming you're refering to the 'Tip of the Week" section on "Solaris on Headless PCs". I'll give it a shot and let you know how it goes. As always, thanks!

    Issue Stop-A from telnet session

    I have 2 SUN boxes. Neither has a console. I had setup Box1 successfully using a laptop and connecting directly to the serial port. I had also successfully setup the RSC card. I don't have the laptop anymore. I simply use RSC or telnet to communicate with Box1. I have successfully...
