There is a bug for unzip in some versions of solaris 10, when uncompressing the 10_Recommended.zip, it indicates the
file is corrupted.
To overcome this, if you have java installed in the server, you can use jar to uncompress the bundle.
As root do:
# jar xvf 10_Recommended.zip
The files are extracted without the permissions, so fix them
# cd 10_Recommended
# find . -name postpatch -exec chmod 744 {} ;
# find . -name prepatch -exec chmod 744 {} ;
#chmod 755 install_cluster*
And you’re now ready to patch

if your jumpstart nic comes up on half duplex you can send it
ok% boot net:speed=1000,duplex=full
And that will force the speed

This cannot be expressed in the typical crontab syntax, so we run a script every sunday in the crontab:
00 11 kraftek.html POSTS rescue rescued.html rescued.txt x y z kraftek.html POSTS rescue rescued.html rescued.txt x y z 0 root /scripts/monthlyreboot.ksh > /var/log/rebootlog 2>&1
The script checks if this is the first sunday of the current month, if it is, it performs a reboot, the contents of
/scripts/monthlyreboot.ksh are:
#!/bin/ksh
# get today’s month and year
T=`date +%m” “%Y | sed ‘s/^0//’`
# get this month’s first sunday
S=`cal $T | cut -c 1-2 | sed ‘s/ //g’ | grep . | head -2 | tail -1`
# get what day of the month today is
D=`date +%d | sed ‘s/^0//’`
echo -n “`date` — the day is $D, first sunday of $T is $S”
if [ $D -eq $S ];then
echo “, so we are going to reboot”
sleep 3
/sbin/shutdown -t 00 -r now
else
echo “, no reboot today”
fi

Imagine you want to publish a webapp from your intranet, without moving it from your internal server, just adding some
url to your existing external webserver and mapping it to the internal server, that is what mod_proxy does.
http://www.kraftek.com/orca/orcallator/
) , thanx to my vpn and mod_proxy.
First you have to compile apache to have proxy modules and friends:
# ./configure –enable-so –enable-mods-shared=”all proxy proxy_http proxy_ftp proxy_connect headers
deflate mod_deflate mod_ssl”
# make && make install
Get mod_proxy_html from http://apache.webthing.com/mod_proxy_html/, and build it into apache
# /usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs -c -I/usr/include/libxml2 -i mod_proxy_html.c
Edit your httpd.conf and, in my case, to map orca’s directory, I wrote this:
ProxyRequests off
ProxyPass /orca/ http://dell/orca/
<Location /orca/>
ProxyPassReverse /
SetOutputFilter proxy-html
ProxyHTMLURLMap / /orca/
ProxyHTMLURLMap /orca /orca
RequestHeader unset Accept-Encoding
</Location>
voila!, got http://www.kraftek.com/orca/orcallator/ mapped to an internal machine called “dell”, now you can
see some pages from my internal machine!
I hated the fact that i needed to mirror the whole orca directory overnight… Now I don’t need to do that!

Create volume of maxsize (max size of all the DG’s disks):
# vxassist -g ora2dg maxsize
Maximum volume size: 39522304 (19298Mb)
# vxassist -g ora2dg make oratmp 39522304
# mkfs -F vxfs /dev/vx/rdsk/ora2dg/oratmp
# mkdir /db/prd3/archive_test2
# mount -F vxfs /dev/vx/dsk/ora2dg/oratmp /db/prd3/archive_test2
Grow a volume to maxgrow:
# vxassist -g ora1dg maxgrow archive_temp
Volume archive_temp can be extended by 10772480 to 94658560 (46220Mb)
# vxresize -g ora1dg archive_temp +4g

this
, and you have a j2ee appserver (tomcat), get the source:
PictureGallery-netbeans-src.tar. gz
, unpack it, you’ll find a “.war” file inside, that is what you should put inside
the “webapps” folder inside tomcat.
The only setting you might need to change is the location of your pictures. Find the jsp called “index.jsp” and
modify the variable “base” there.

Do you want to know where a I/O card is physically located in the server?
If you have the device path you can know.
Read this doc:

You might want to know if you have support for dmp in your array for veritas, you do this by checking the right ASL
package is installed.
# vxddladm listsupport
Then check if there’s an entry for your type of disk array
