I'm trying to determine if ther are anything I can do to minimize the effects of lossing a NetApp that hosts one of the mounted NFS filesystem on my Sun V490 running Solaris 9. ServerA using NFS filesystems from 2 NetApp filers - NetApp01 and NetApp02. If I loose NetApp02, the service on...

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...

We have a V480 box running Solaris 9 with NFS volumes on NetApp Filers. I have these 2 directories in one of the volumes - DirA and DirOLD. I have a daily job that 1.) deletes DirOLD 2.) renames DirA to DirOLD 3.) creates a new DirA (then backups a bunch of files from other locations into DirA)...

I'm new to using mailx. I'd like to know the basics in using it to read, delete, etc my mail. I have the man pages printed out, but things aren't working the way I think it is suppose to work. When I do: mailx I see a list of messages in my mailbox. 1st question: The list show columns. I...

oh I get it. I was acutally doing this: $ . ./myscript arg1 arg2 and then (without the args): $ . /myscript And both would have the same outputs. But if I do this: $ ./myscript arg1 arg2 $ ./myscript then the arguments do not persist. Forgive me, I'm a newbie. What is the differences...

Can positional parameters in korn be resetted? What I mean is, if I have a script that takes 3 srguments: $ myscript arg1 arg2 arg3 ...script runs and so $1 is equal to arg1; and $2 is equal to arg2, etc... When I ran it again WITHOUT provide any arguments: $ myscript ... It runs with the...

Gosuc, I am also trying to do the same thing. I have dowloaded the binaries and tarball also created the same directories as with you. Could provide how you got net-snmp installed?

TERM=vt100 export TERM I have tries doing this as well, but no difference. Anyone else have any other suggest. Again, the situation is this: I am telnet'ed into serverA from a PC. Then tip into serverB.

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?

Yes, I did export TERM. I have tried setting EXPORT=vt100 and still no difference.

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...

What do you mean "the port on box C is not setup the same as the other server?" It's the serial port. How can I configure the serial port on box C? box A is a SunFireV480 and has this entry in it's /etc/remote file: hardwire...

I have set tip and can access boxB from boxA. However, when I try to access boxC from boxA, all I get a the connected message. The login prompt does not appear. Please help.

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...

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...
