Solaris ZFS : How to import 2 pools that have the same names

By admin

It is possible that you may have to manage 2 pools that have the same name. For example, if you have a pool name "datapool" and you have another from some other storage array called "datapool". You may wish to import this second pool (with the same name) to your system. ZFS will not allow the system to have 2 pools with the same name. Therefore we have to rename one of the pool to some other name. There are 2 scenarios when importing pools with same name. 1. One pool is already imported 2. … [Read more...] about Solaris ZFS : How to import 2 pools that have the same names

SVM : How to set boot device at OBP for mirrored root disk

By admin

The Open Boot PROM(OBP) aliases in solaris SPARC environments are created to simplify the access to hardware devices using user friendly names. They can be used in place of the full OBP hardware path at the “ok” prompt. The post discusses the procedure to set the Open Boot Prom (OBP) environment for SPARC systems properly if system is mirrored with Solaris Volume Manager (SVM). The terms "primary" and "secondary" are often applied to SVM boot disks. In practice neither disk is primary. The … [Read more...] about SVM : How to set boot device at OBP for mirrored root disk

Solaris (SPARC) : How to create OBP boot device alias at ok prompt

By admin

The Open Boot PROM(OBP) aliases in solaris SPARC environments are created to simplify the access to hardware devices using user friendly names. They can be used in place of the full OBP hardware path at the "ok" prompt. When viewed via the devalias command at the prom level, they are listed in the form of the alias name followed by the full hardware path to the device. ok> devalis ...... mydisk /sbus@7,0/SUNW,fas@3,8800000/sd@c,0 screen … [Read more...] about Solaris (SPARC) : How to create OBP boot device alias at ok prompt

Solaris : Troubleshooting startup (rc init) scripts

By admin

During boot or shutdown, a number of legacy rc init scripts are being invoked. After kernel starts the svc.startd daemon during boot process, svc.startd daemon executes the rc scripts in the /sbin directory based upon the run level. With each run level has an associated script in the /sbin directory. # ls -l /sbin/rc? -rwxr--r-- 3 root sys 1678 Sep 20 2012 /sbin/rc0 -rwxr--r-- 1 root sys 2031 Sep 20 2012 /sbin/rc1 -rwxr--r-- 1 root sys 2046 Sep … [Read more...] about Solaris : Troubleshooting startup (rc init) scripts

Solaris 11 : Increasing the size of a vdisk in LDom ( with backend device as ZFS volume )

By admin

LDom supports a number of possible other devices to be exported by the virtual disk server as a virtual disk to the guest domain. You can export a physical disk, disk slice, volumes, or file as a block device. The following procedure is based on a setup of ZVOLs for underlying backend device on primary domain. The basic steps would work for other kinds of devices as well. Assumptions: - Guest domain is running Solaris 11 - underlying device for the vdisk on primary is a zvol - filesystem … [Read more...] about Solaris 11 : Increasing the size of a vdisk in LDom ( with backend device as ZFS volume )
