I need to understand how to upgrade a mirrored env using lu. Current: Sol10 u3 sparc Upgrade to: Sol10 u8 The current fs looks like this: d10 mirrored md (root) d11 c2t0d0s0 d12 c2t1d0s0 d20 mirrored md(swap) d21 c2t0d0s1 d22 c2t1d0s1 d30 mirrored md(/var) d31 c2t0d0s3 d32 c2t1d0s3...

Hey has anyone had to force a set of rights to log files before? For example I need to for 640 on certain log files on SOL10 due to securtiy concerns. I thought that the sticky bit might do it, but I am not familiar enough with it to be sure. Please HELP!! Thanks Chris

Can anyone tell me if this folder can go away? I believe it is a NBU 5.x thing, but I wanted to make sure. I also need to find documentation. Thanks

Good idea. I'll have to lookup the details on installing the boot blocks. I have done that before but it has been a long time. Thanks!

I have a box that rarely changes. I am taking backups etc... but I was thinking that I would like to have a spare hd sitting on the shelf that I could plug into the box at any time and boot to it in case something happened(see history). This is of course on top of a mirrored drive. A little...

Modifying submit.cf was the key. It all works now!!! Hope this helps. cnull

I have a very similar problem. I think I understand the cause of the problem, but I am not sure what the final solution will be. When sending from mydomain to ent_domain I get the same error you get. "smtp;553 5.1.8 <address@domain2.com>... Domain of sender address address@domain1.com does...

When I went to make the change that you reccomended I found that the SMARTHOST already pointed to a variable of mailhost. I noticed that the mailhost was already in the /etc/hosts file so I modified it to point to the SMTP server. It worked. Now my only other question is this: Should I (or do...

Not really sure where to start. I am running Solaris 10 (sparc). All I want to do is to forward all outgoing mail (i.e. backup job completions etc...) to an existing enterprise SMTP server. I have been searching and I cannot figure out what steps I need to take to do this. Any help is...

I have never purchased support for Redhat. Probably because most support is available freely anywhere on the internet. But I have GOLD contracts with Solaris. Pros for solaris: ummmmmmmmm Cons for solaris: support desk response times support desk knowledge support desk tickets follow...

I am working on implementing Sun Java Systems Directory Services EE 6.1 in a previously all Windows(some Novell) environment with AD. My question is regarding the Distinguished Name. The current windows DN is Dom.city.State.co.com Should I be using the exact DN for this implementation? Will...

JEZZZ I knew it was something stupid. I am faily new to Unix and I was going off of the vfstab man page. I misunderstood the mount at boot to mean that "yes" would mount it during the first part of the boot i.e. like making it available in a failsafe mode or something. But that brings up...

Here is the scenario... I wanted to reconfigure the file system so that I could utilize the disk space better and so that I could mirror my drives. I followed some instructions on how to move each slice over to a new drive and then finally move the root partition over to a new drive. Everything...

Thanks everyone for all your comments and suggestions. Ultimately I could not fix it by delteing files or restarting etc... So I rebuilt the slice on another disk and then moved the data. It is back to normal now.
