    Not able to login using the console

    You don't have to boot to the same version of Solaris in order to mount the root file system and zero out root's password. You should be fine booting to Solaris 8 or 9 using 'ok boot cdrom -s'. Cheers, Keith Keith Duffin http://www.duffin.org

    How to "prstat" yesterday's active processes

    Warren, Unless you have configured 'auditd' or some other process/system call monitoring, you will be hard pressed to identify what was generating your peak load. Sun's BSM auditing is nice, but depending on how it is configured, it can cause a noticable performance hit. What is the server...

    Advantage of starting websphere instead of an instance

    Do you mean whether to start EnterpriseApps that exist in a websphere installation automatically or not? Love to help, but I want the better understand the question. Keith Duffin http://www.duffin.org

    /var/adm/sulog

    Look at 'man sulog'. Solaris 'su' won't log commands being executed by the given user. It only logs the attempt/failure/success of su. If you really want to maintain a trail of commands executed by the user once they have su(d) to another user, you'll have to enable C2 auditing and use the...

    about ports used in connection pool to oracle

    What are you doing to see the sockets/trace the connection? If you look at the netstat on the Weblogic server, you'll see something similar to: 172.16.2.81.58288 172.16.3.204.1521 24820 0 24820 0 ESTABLISHED 172.16.2.81.58351 172.16.3.204.1521 24820 0 24820 0...

    Quick way to identify process(es) eating up swap

    It's probably worth noting that /tmp does not have to be swap. Having /tmp be a TMPFS file system is worthwhile for applicatoins that need faster access to those tmp files (such as DBMS systems), but is not a must. I've seen more than one admin with a skewed TMPFS ratio bring his box to its...

    Need Replacement Drive for SS 1000

    I'd start with http://www.sun.com/products-n-solutions/hardware/docs/Servers/Midrange_Servers/SPARCserver_1000/ as a point of reference. The SE Handbook lists the following as compatible drives: 11 370-1424 535MB 5400 RPM Disk Drive, Conner CP30540 11 370-1424 535MB 5400 RPM Disk Drive...

    Which flavor of UNIX is the modem connected to. I'd be happy to help, but it would help cater the response to the particular OS. Cheers, Keith keith@duffin.org http://www.duffin.org

    UNIX Historical Timeline

    Many of you have probably already seen this, but I thought it would be nice to post it for those that haven't. http://www.levenez.com/unix/ has a nice graphical history of the various stages of UNIX development. Cheers, Keith keith@duffin.org http://www.duffin.org

    If ftp a iso file, how can iI run it from H/d

    You don't have to burn it to a cdrom. I posted a FAQ under the solaris section called "How do I mount an ISO image under solaris?" Cheers, Keith keith@duffin.org http://www.duffin.org

    X thru modem

    So you are using a simple async connection? Do they have a modem connected to a console server or do you actually get a presence on their network (PPP for example)? If you have an IP presence, you can use ssh w/X11 forwarding for a secure xterm session. If you don't have an actual address on...

    SSL on AIX with verisign

    If I remember correctly, I believe that the IBM HTTP Server wants you to use their facility to generate the key/csr. Take a look at http://web25.evenue.net/manual/ibm/9atcau.htm Cheers, Keith keith@duffin.org http://www.duffin.org

    How To Boot from the Mirror Disk

    Was the mirror added to the boot device list? What do you see when you do a printenv boot-device at the ok prompt? If it lists two devices, it can be as simple as boot <2nd device>. If you never defined the the alternate boot alias, it might be possible to boot off one of the default...

    Script’s output to /dev/null

    Dan, The easiest way would be to designate the output when you call the script. For example, given some script called runscript.sh: $ runscript.sh 2>&1 > /dev/null 2> (redirect standard error) &1 (into stdout) >/dev/null (both into /dev/null) Cheers, Keith keith@duffin.org...

    FSCK Command usage

    Not that it is advisable under every condition, but you can have fsck loop through all devices by just running fsck w/o specifying a device; combine that with the -y flag and all devices will be fsck(d) w/o prompts. Cheers, Keith keith@duffin.org http://www.duffin.org
