(I am hoping this question squeaks into the accepted set because it's about using Solaris) ---- I'm trying to get hold of ISOs for the Solaris 11 11/11 (ie. 11.0), in particular the Live installation ISO (x86) and the (two part) Repository ISO. I'm also interested in the Automatic Installation (ai) ISO, but that one isn't so important... I already have the text-installation ISO (ol-11-1111-text-x86.iso). It's unfortunately not available on Oracle's Solaris sites (unlike later version), nor have I been able to find these particular ISOs elsewhere (closest I got was defunct FTP-server in Poland). So if anybody know a still working URL or still have them archived somewhere, that would be greatly appreciated. The ISOs I'm after are: * sol-11-1111-live-x86.iso * repo: sol-11-1111-repo-full.iso-a * repo: sol-11-1111-repo-full.iso-b Or alternatively, the fully assembled version of the repo: * repo: sol-11-1111-repo-full.iso I'm also somewhat interested in the automatic install image: * sol-11-1111-ai-x86.iso Why? First I have the other versions of Solaris 11 - I'm just missing this one. Second, my decrepit old computer chocked on the last two versions. Third I like to see if this was before or after Solaris retired their "Primary Administrator" profile. By the way, was a repo-ISO like this ever released for OpenSolaris? (I know there is one for Solaris Express).

I am running VMware Workstation 16 Pro on my W11 PC. I have several VMs, including a Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS VM, and a Solaris 10 VM (sadly still needed for legacy projects). I need to allow the Solaris VM access (full RW permissions) to my "/" partition (ext4, /dev/sda3) in the Ubuntu VM. First, is this even possible? If so, what are the steps necessary for this to happen? On the Ubuntu VM, I went to Settings -> Sharing, enabled Sharing, and then went into Media Sharing, and shared the folder /, and enabled Wired connection 1. In the Solaris VM created the folder /etc/nfs/ub22 (as root), I su'd to root and entered mount -F nfs 192.168.18.107:/ /etc/nfs/ub22 (1921.68.18.107 is the IP of the Ubuntu VM) but I get the error nfs mount: 192.168.18.107: : RPC: Rpcbind failure - RPC: Unable to receive

I've to restore a large file from a NAS backup on Solaris 10 ZFS. I'm using this following command: rsync -av user@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:from/NAS/files/system to/solaris/files/system And I've got this error: Disconnecting: Corrupted MAC on input. rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (3778664937 bytes received so far) [receiver] rsync: [generator] write error: Broken pipe (32) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(226) [receiver=3.1.0] rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at io.c(837) [generator=3.1.0 rsync Disconnecting: Corrupted MAC on input. After a little research the solution should be: ethtool -K eth0 tx off rx off As the ethtool command doesn't exist on Solaris, I should use the ndd utility in interactive mode. I didn't find any good explanation and the man page is poor, for getting the equivalent of the command line above. I'm missing something maybe.

What are expected values for offset and jitter from NTP? I have Solaris 11.4 in a VM with NTP configured and am comparing Solaris time stats to my Mac. I notice that MacOS sntp -sS time.apple.com reports very low offset of ~0.01s +/- ~0.01s. On Solaris I invoke ntpq -pcrv and note my offset is ~-6s +/- ~2s to time.nist.gov.

Does anyone know how to redirect IP packets from a GZ interface to a NGZ? I think this may be due to virtual (multiple) MAC addresses per NIC interacting with VMWare and VirtualBox and there is a potential solution below involved in placing the Host NIC (through VMWare or VirtualBox in promiscuous mode) including the Gust OS NIC. Unsure if it's the best solution. The GZ is on interface net0 (phys) 192.168.0.10 and NGZ on zone/net0 (vnic) 192.168.0.11. I'm trying to bring up a DNS server in the NGZ at 192.168.0.11. So far, I can use the packet filter / firewall to redirect DNS ports (NGZ won't allow me to use privileged ports) to the GZ for testing. I have NAT working using pass in on net0 from 192.168.0.11 to any nat-to (net0), however I still can't get traffic from the 192.168.0.0/24 subnet through physical net0 to route to the NGZ at 192.168.0.11. FYI -- I'm using VMWare on a Mac and it created a bridge for the 192.168.0.0/24 subnet.

Oracle release 11.4 cbe some years ago, to give Solaris free for non commercial use. I was happy about this, but.. root@solaris2:~# LANG=C pkg publisher PUBLISHER TYPE STATUS P LOCATION solaris origin online F http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release/ root@solaris2:~# LANG=C pkg update No updates available for this image.

I've set publisher with this command pkg set-publisher -G'*' -g http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release/ solaris As you know a system without updates is not safe to use.. As I know Solaris use two repositories: release and support, the support repository is only for subscribers with a support contract, so they release Oracle for free use and.. no updates? pkg info entire report Version: 11.4 (Oracle Solaris 11.4.42.111.0)

I'm doing a NAS data migration from a Celerra NS960 to a Unity 500. I have an SMB/CIFS file system I synced using EMCOpy in Windows environment. It's also an NFS (multiprotocol) file system. I have both file systems mounted on a Solaris 10 UNIX server can I just rsync the permissions only from the NS960 to the Unity and not have all the data copy again?

We were able to use Samba and NIS on Samba 3.0.8 on Solaris 10 U5. When we update system to Solaris 10 U11, samba version became 3.6.12. And we are unable to authenticate like old style. I did not include some parameters on below(create directory mask,etc...) Old smb.conf [global] workgroup = WORKGROUPNAME server string = Samba Server security = SERVER password server = dc6n, dc7n username map = /etc/sfw/username.map local master = No dns proxy = No wins server = dc6n, dc7n kernel oplocks = No host msdfs = No map archive = No oplocks = No level2 oplocks = No old nsswitch.conf passwd files nis hosts files nis We try to set same configuration to Samba 3.6.12, but it did not work. So I decided to use security = ADS with Kerberos. This is worked but the way we did not want. Because, only windows domain users were able to login and NIS users not. New /etc/smb.conf workgroup = WORKGROUPNAME realm = domain.com security = ADS password server = dc6n.domain.com utmp = Yes idmap config *:backend = tdb idmap config *:range = 5000-9999 idmap config NETADM:backend = tdb idmap config NETADM:range = 10000-90000 idmap uid = 100000-500000 idmap gid = 100000-500000 template homedir = /home/%U template shell = /bin/tcsh winbind cache time = 1800 winbind enum users = No winbind enum groups = No winbind use default domain = Yes winbind separator = / create krb5 conf = No local master = yes domain login = yes domain master = yes preferred master = yes New /etc/nsswitch.conf passwd files winbind nis hosts files winbind nis New /etc/krb5.conf [libdefaults] domain.com = domain.com dns_lookup_kdc = true [realms] symantec.local = { kdc = dc6n.domain.com admin_server = dc6n.domain.com } [domain_realm] .domain.com = domain.com I am able to get users info from AD and NIS with wbinfo and genent commands. How can we authenticate like old style again?

I have the following shell script fragment. var_name='ZZPCI' for emailadd in cat /tmp/email_list.tmp do subject_text="Subject with Var Name "$var_name subj_text_novar="Subject without Var Name" email_mssge="this is the message with variable name "$var_name echo "$email_mssge"|mailx -a /tmp/my_report.txt -s "$subject_text" "$emailadd" echo "$email_mssge"|mailx -a /tmp/my_report.txt -s "$subj_text_novar" "$emailadd" done What it does is a. Sets the variable var_name b. Reads through the list of email addresses stored in /tmp/email_list.tmp c. Compiles and sends an email with /tmp/my_report.txt (plain text file) as an attachment The script is intended to run on a number of different servers, so var_name will change with each server. The mail command with $subj_text_novar, (does not include $var_name in the subject string), sends the email correctly . However the mail command with $subject_text which does include $var_name places the contents of the attachment into the main body of the email. As far as I can make out, it is the actual $-sign causing the problem because hardcoding the var_name value into the string is fine but I don't see why because surely var_name is just a concatenated string So, how can I set the subject for mail so it includes $var_name and my text file is sent as an attachment? I am running this on SuSE 11.3 but the solution ideally needs to work on AIX 6.1 and HP UX11.31 as well Regards

Suppose I want a dir, which all files and directories created inside has the group permission of the group owner of the dir, and 770 as default permission. With posix ACL is really easy #create a dir.. mkdir proof #inherit group permission "video" in this example chmod g+s proof/ chgrp video proof/ #with setfacl make the default group with rxw permissions setfacl -d -m g:video:rwx proof #other are not allowed setfacl -d -m o:--- proof/ chmod o-x proof #give the acl setfacl -m g:video:rwx proof Now I create a file and a dir inside the dir proof.. mkdir try1 drwxrws---+ 2 myuser video 4,0K feb 23 01:26 try1 touch file1 -rw-rw----+ 1 myuser video 0 feb 23 01:29 file1 As you can see I obtain what I want, all files in the dir inherit permissions and has the group "video" as group owner. This is possible on Linux (posix acl on ext4, btrfs, etc..) and Solaris (ufs). Now the question..how to do this with zfs which use nfsv4 acl on Solaris? I have tried this making another dir "proof" in a zfs Solaris 11 host (of course chmod g+s was made) chmod A=owner@:read_attributes/read_data/execute/list_directory/read_data/write_data/append_data/execute/add_file/add_subdirectory:fd:allow,group:video:read_attributes/read_data/execute/list_directory/read_data/write_data/append_data/execute/add_file/add_subdirectory:fd:allow,everyone@:read_attributes/read_data/execute/list_directory/read_data/write_data/append_data/execute/add_file/add_subdirectory:fd:deny proof but the result is.. mkdir newdir drwxr-sr-x+ 2 myuser video 2 23 feb 02.33 newdir :| How to obtain the same of posix acl? Thanks

I realize that Microsoft doesn't even recommend using a windows server as a time service, however I don't have a choice -- closed network in a windows centric shop. It became an issue when the newer Solaris 11 systems could not sync to the AD servers which come with NTP v4 ( 4.2.8p10 ). It does work for the Solaris 10 servers using the older v3 (xntpd) as a client. I tried disabling the older client, and enabling the ntp4 client ( 4.2.8p9) on the Solaris 10 systems. So even though it had been working, and uses the same ntp.conf, the v4 client fails to sync. Anyone have any suggestions on a possible tweak to sync a NTP v4 client to a Windows 2012 R2 AD server? **ntp.conf** server AD_SVR1_IP prefer iburst server AD_SVR2_IP peer rac-node2 My long term plan is to get the network team to enable a NTP service on one of their device that we all point to. Thanks

I know two methods for expand raid5 on solaris svm using UFS one is this another is to replace disk by disk,suppose i want to remove old small disk and replace with bigger disk using this procedure devfsadm cfgadm -c configure sata2/0 format -d c0t5d0 metadb -a -f c0t5d0s2 metareplace -e myraid c0t4d0s2 c0t5d0s2 metadb -d c0t4d0s2 cfgadm -c unconfigure c0t4d0s2 I have replaced all disks with the method above and my raid5 is online and ok as metastat said But after give metadevadm -vr and growfs -M /raid /dev/md/rdsk/d44 The SIZE is the same as raid with old disks and this is wrong because i replaced disks with bigger disks. On linux is really easy to replace raid5 disk on fly and grow the raid5 (mdadm fail,add,grow,then pvresize..) on fly,i miss something on solaris svm? The first method is also good(concatenate+growfs) but i want to replace disks old(small) with new(big). Please don't answer zfs,for "study" reason i'm on ufs+svm

Should be easy .... zpool status -l rpool or zpool status -v or so I thought . My issue is we're running Solaris 10 on a HP DL380 G5 and I suspect the non native hardware is confusing things. We have 2x zpools, one of which is made up of several disks. However, when I run zpool status -l rpool it just lists a single disk. We have reason to believe a disk is failing or has failed and want to remove it from the zpool but can't list the physical disks .... What can I do? Martin
