[00:00:11] <_syphilis_> 3/05 with the current manpage update patch (not sure what # that is offhand)
[00:00:34] <stevel> _syphilis_: i see the same thing
[00:01:25] <sommerfeld> i'm not seeing it on snv_55
[00:01:35] <sommerfeld> (fresh install done today)
[00:01:38] <stevel> sommerfeld: i see it on my S10 3/05 system w/ patches
[00:01:54] <stevel> it was patched up to date until the annoying zones bug from a month ago
[00:02:20] <_syphilis_> is there a way to see which patch installed that file last?
[00:03:08] <PerterB> figure out what package it's in (grep /var/sadm/install/contents) then grep for that package in the output of showrev -p
[00:03:38] <PerterB> it'll be SUNWman though
[00:03:45] <_syphilis_> but can't patches touch a package without touching all files in it?
[00:04:45] <_syphilis_> ah, need step 3: look at file list in patch readme :)
[00:04:51] <_syphilis_> 119247-21
[00:04:59] <PerterB> yes, but generally there is only one patch per package... you can double check in the patch readme
[00:06:30] *** lisppaste3 has quit IRC
[00:07:38] <nrubsig> Can anyone go to stevel's office and check whether he is still alive or wheher we need to dispose another dead admin corpse (died through exhaution while servicing opensolaris.org and alcohol-addicted beagels)
[00:09:00] <hile_> What are you whinging on about,  nrubsig?
[00:09:22] <_syphilis_> i guess he's annoyed at not getting an instant reply on irc ;-)
[00:10:01] * _syphilis_ removes 200GB of /home backups.. really need to teach someone here about zfs compress=on
[00:10:30] <nrubsig> hile_: http://opensolaris.org/sc/archives/opensolaris-discuss/ still does not show the messages posted in the last hour - I just want to check whether this is intentionally not updated or a bug.
[00:11:01] <stevel> it's both
[00:11:15] <stevel> it's intentionally not updated - since that is just a static restore of the mailman backups
[00:11:24] <stevel> but it's a bug that mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail isn't updating
[00:11:27] <stevel> i'm looking into it now
[00:11:30] *** lisppaste3 has joined #opensolaris
[00:11:32] * stevel hates mailman
[00:11:39] *** bougie has quit IRC
[00:11:41] <elektronkind> mailman does suck
[00:12:03] <nrubsig> stevel: give me admin permissions and I can do the admin work for you... :-)
[00:12:19] <elektronkind> I'd highly recommend sympa if lists were just being brought up for the first time ever.
[00:12:34] <nrubsig> umpf
[00:12:36] <elektronkind> but migrating to sympa from mailman... not terribly easy
[00:13:05] * elektronkind just did a listproc->sympa migration for 2100 lists and ~220k users
[00:13:12] <nrubsig> elektronkind: I'd like to avoid another myhem. I still suffer from the "Jive" thing.
[00:14:12] <alanc> they shouldn't be allowed to call it jive without an option to pipe it through the old jive filter (and maybe valspeak)
[00:14:40] <elektronkind> leg'em down and smack 'em yak 'em
[00:14:46] <elektronkind> ho got the beat
[00:15:12] <alanc> http://www.gnu.org/fun/jokes/gnu.jive.html
[00:15:25] <elektronkind> I think I'll go home and watch Airplane tonight now
[00:16:30] <nrubsig> alanc: My primary complaint about jive is that it's messages break the In-Reply-To:/References: chain BADLY and threading is broken thanks to that. My InBox looks like a mad cow has disturbed the sort order
[00:17:00] <nrubsig> alanc: and then come around 20 other nasty items, all which annoy me a lot because it causes more work.
[00:18:35] <nrubsig> stevel: BTW: The admin thing wasn't a joke.
[00:18:53] <stevel> nrubsig: we're not setup yet to have non-sun admins unfortunately
[00:19:13] <nrubsig> ;-(
[00:21:07] *** Kmays has joined #opensolaris
[00:24:15] <nrubsig> stevel: I bet we won't see that without orders signed in triplicate, sent in, sent back, queried, lost, found, subjected to public enquiry by management, fed to komodo dragons, recovered from their poo, lost again, and buried in soft peat for 3.14159 26535 89793 23846 26433 83279 50288 41971 69399 37510 months (this must be the exact amount of time, otherwise the request gets handled as full...
[00:24:16] <nrubsig> ...ARC case) and recycled as firelighters and then declared obsolete by new software introduced which is even worse than the previous one.
[00:25:03] <Gman> stevel, make sure you upgrade to avoid those security vulnerabilities too! :)
[00:25:15] <nrubsig> umpf
[00:25:28] <stevel> gman: yeah yeah ;)
[00:25:51] *** mrdeviant has quit IRC
[00:25:56] <Gman> though, really it being down is a good excuse for me not to do the weekly summaries
[00:26:06] <Gman> (they'll kill me later)
[00:26:10] <_syphilis_> hum
[00:26:15] <_syphilis_> # /sbin/mount -m -F ufs -o remount,rq  /
[00:26:15] <_syphilis_> mount: /dev/md/dsk/d20 is not this fstype
[00:28:23] <_syphilis_> oddly i can mount it fine on /mnt..
[00:29:12] <nrubsig> oh my god
[00:29:23] *** lacaAFK is now known as laca
[00:29:35] <nrubsig> someone posted a way to calculate Pi, this time incrementatlly for each digit.
[00:29:53] <nrubsig> including error correction
[00:30:14] <nrubsig> s/error/base2-vs.-base10 error/
[00:34:41] <elektronkind> out to how many places?
[00:35:33] <elektronkind> huh
[00:35:47] <elektronkind> I just got a referrer to my blog from an internal sun site
[00:35:50] <elektronkind> http://sundoc.central:9093/wdk/temp/331238_Good%20News%20You%20Can%20Use%20-%20December%20%28customer%20version%2C%20HTML%29.html
[00:35:57] <hspaans> nrubsig: he liked the new glue I asume?
[00:36:15] <elektronkind> someone from .sun.com clue me in on what's at that URL? I'm curious.
[00:37:27] <sommerfeld> you were linked from an internal newsletter.
[00:37:41] <elektronkind> cool... I guess :)
[00:37:58] <sommerfeld> the context around the link: # "There?s so much good stuff in this update that?s it really should be called ?Solaris 10.5," says Elektronkind's Dale Ghent. The most exciting and useful features include: Storage Networking Industry Association multi-path management API support, Logical Domains (LDoms) 1.0 Software and recursive ZFS snapshots. >>Read more"
[00:38:19] <elektronkind> yeah, that's it
[00:38:31] <elektronkind> I'm tickled
[00:39:04] *** pikapika has quit IRC
[00:39:16] <hspaans> recursive zfs snapshots? wicked
[00:39:26] <elektronkind> yah
[00:40:02] <elektronkind> it has allowed me to fold ~30 snapshot commands into just one.
[00:40:33] <nrubsig> hspaans: ?!
[00:41:27] <elektronkind> ok. time to stop playing with my new stk 6140 and go home
[00:41:50] *** Gman has quit IRC
[00:42:22] <hspaans> nrubsig: to think of a way to calculate Pi is a real indicator that someone is sniffing the jar full of nice sticky glue

[01:43:27] <_syphilis_> stric: hmm, that makes sense
[01:43:41] <_syphilis_> i see ~100MB/s read for large files but <200K/s on small files
[01:43:44] *** jlc has joined #opensolaris
[01:44:35] *** jlc has quit IRC
[01:44:53] <Stric> and about 200 iops per disk according to zpool iostat -v 5  ?
[01:45:07] *** jlc has joined #opensolaris
[01:45:18] * _syphilis_ waits for it return to some small files
[01:45:20] <jlc> finally....
[01:45:25] * Stric sees about 230 or so
[01:45:46] <jlc> !seen laca
[01:45:47] <Drone> laca is currently online in #opensolaris and last spoke on Fri 22 Dec 2006 18:37 GMT, saying 'the description says it's only relevant if the object is a drawer or a menu'.
[01:46:00] <jlc> ping laca
[01:47:42] <_syphilis_> hmm, looking at previous values i see:
[01:48:00] <_syphilis_> ift          295G   809G      0      0      0      0
[01:48:01] <_syphilis_> int          145G   611G    206      0   317K      0
[01:48:20] <_syphilis_> (without -v so not sure what the per-disk values where there)
[01:48:46] <Stric> ah, the ift.. single vdev in the pool?
[01:49:03] <_syphilis_> int is the problem
[01:49:09] <_syphilis_> it's a 6-disk pool
[01:49:12] <_syphilis_> hm well
[01:49:22] <_syphilis_> i _think_ it is the problem.. i'm copy from int to ift
[01:49:24] <Stric> the ift can do more than 200 iops
[01:49:44] <_syphilis_> during the slow parts ift shows no/low write access so i don't think that's it
[01:50:01] <_syphilis_> int does ~800 iops when it's fast (large files)
[01:50:05] <Stric> do -v so you can see individual disks
[01:50:14] <Stric> what kind of disks btw?
[01:50:15] <_syphilis_> yeah, that's running now, just waiting for it to slow down
[01:50:22] <_syphilis_> 10krpm SCSI
[01:50:38] <Stric> ok, those give around 230 iops here in a raidz2
[01:50:48] <_syphilis_> yeah
[01:50:49] <_syphilis_>     c0t1d0s7      -      -    260     19  14.1M  21.0K
[01:51:13] <Stric> if you're doing U320, it might be higher due to packetized scsi instead of slow-ass-command-bus-and-fast-data-bus
[01:51:16] <_syphilis_> here we go
[01:51:51] <_syphilis_> http://rafb.net/p/EciHnA62.html
[01:51:54] <_syphilis_> slowness starts on line 50
[01:52:28] <Stric> ah, you're seeing the wonders of vdev prefetch too :)
[01:52:34] <_syphilis_> 250 iops over the whole pool seems to suggest that's the problem
[01:52:38] <onbot> commit by Gerald Jelinek:  6508068 tmp pool info should not be saved after a dedicated-cpu configuration removed zone rebooting
[01:52:53] <Stric> for each small random read, you're doing like 6*128k reads
[01:53:29] <Stric> it's fine if you want the additional blocks.. but if it's small random reads, then it's just pure waste
[01:53:39] *** swa_mobil has quit IRC
[01:53:54] <Stric> sorry, 6*64k
[01:54:18] <_syphilis_> hmm, why is it doing so many writes ops on int?  atime is disabled there
[01:55:09] <Stric> does it stop if you stop the copying?
[01:55:21] <Stric> no writes over here when just doing reads..
[01:55:29] <_syphilis_> yep
[01:55:42] <_syphilis_> all 0's for both FSs when the copy stops

[02:09:43] <Doc> hehe.. experience requirements for a job ad :
[02:09:47] <Doc> * 3-5 years experience with Fault Management Architecture to isolate FRU faults.
[02:10:45] <Doc> how long has FMA been about?
[02:12:05] <_syphilis_> 3/05?
[02:12:18] <sommerfeld> well, it was under development in 2002.
[02:12:44] <Doc> aint going to be too many ppl with 5 years of experience of it, are there :)
[02:13:09] <sommerfeld> Nope :-)
[02:14:17] * Odin-LAP also heard of a similar ad for Java, at some point.
[02:14:48] <Odin-LAP> I suppose it's HR putting standard "experience times" into job ads, without even considering how old something is...
[02:17:37] <Doc> to save me the trouble of compiling it, does anyone have a copy of telnet that supports SSL handly?

[04:32:29] <dlg> boyd: some people like having something to share first
[04:32:42] <dlg> personally i think ahving a web page and a mailing list and nothing else is the wrong way to go about stuff
[04:32:57] <boyd> I think you
[04:33:17] <dlg> or maybe i missed the point of what ou were sying
[04:33:20] <comay> boyd: where did you read this?  LDOM support was developed internall and was well on its way prior to opensolaris (sort of like zfs)
[04:33:22] <boyd> I think you're right, but it's hardly an open process if all you do is throw completed code over the wall

[04:34:10] <boyd> You know what I mean
[04:34:15] <dlg> yeah
[04:34:53] <comay> again, it was a project that predates opensolaris being released.  i suspect that they will start a project for future work that will take place in this area
[04:35:47] <dlg> i think there is a lot of value in having a small team making something work, then releasing it for public involvement

[06:40:35] <charlieS> I guess I need some sort of auth wrapper to run as root, probably called by a pam module, that'll do pam_unix_auth.so

[09:15:03] <ofu> does solaris support ahci on intels ich8-southbridge?
[09:21:41] <razrX> ofu: last thing that got mentioned can be found via pointer at http://opensolaris.org/os/community/on/flag-days/pages/2006122401/
[09:22:11] <razrX> that's all i know so don't ask me more about it though
[09:36:58] <whaq> In terms of compatibility and performance, is it true that opensolaris (on x86) is best suited w/ Nvidia based AMD platform?
[09:39:09] *** qdk has joined #opensolaris
[09:39:12] <dlg> is src.opensolaris.org up?
[09:39:55] <razrX> whaq: i don't own an x64 amd system yet unfortunately but it appears that nForce-based systems are used a lot (based on previous conversations here in #opensolaris and on solarisx86 yahoogroups maillist)
[09:40:24] <Error_404> my laptop's an i915 machine
[09:40:25] <Error_404> works fine
[09:41:41] <Error_404> okay... to bfu or not to bfu: http://pastebin.ca/304426
[09:41:52] <Error_404> no errors per say were thrown
[09:42:07] <richlowe> using liveupgrade?
[09:42:32] <richlowe> ok, I'm not sure what causes that, but I believe it's fine.
[09:42:44] <richlowe> I'd still err on the side of caution, but I wouldn't necessarily expect real evil.
[09:43:01] * richlowe has seen it before, but never managed to figure out why
[09:43:04] <richlowe> not that I put much thought into it.
[09:43:23] <Error_404> well, I suppose worst case scenario i brick the machine and have to pull out a DVD
[09:43:33] <richlowe> that's why I asked about liveupgrade.
[09:43:34] <Error_404> all my important data's on a zpool anyway
[09:43:38] <richlowe> it makes the worst case so much more pleasant :)
[09:43:53] <whaq> ok
[09:43:56] <whaq> fgsfds
[09:44:12] <Error_404> I *have* enough space to run a liveupgrade
[09:44:28] <Error_404> however, it's currently stolen by coreadm which doesn't like the idea that I have swap on a zpool
[09:44:29] <richlowe> I try to always have one BE completely clean (and thus upgradable traditionally)
[09:44:39] <richlowe> it means I can upgrade if I have to, it means I have something clean to fall back on if I screw up
[09:44:40] <Error_404> and won't release it
[09:44:53] <richlowe> dumpadm, not coreadm, probably.
[09:44:59] <richlowe> you can't dump to a zpool.
[09:45:00] <Error_404> err, yes
[09:45:08] <whaq> Any good snapshot management software\method? zfs makes creating fs  and snapshot too easy and too cheap... I'm drowning in snapshots nowadays..
[09:45:09] <richlowe> it should release it though, if you don't configure a dump device at all.
[09:45:12] <richlowe> I really wouldn't do that, however.
[09:45:51] <Error_404> why, i'm not going to be debugging kernel panics any time soon
[09:46:06] <richlowe> Other people may want to...
[09:46:11] <richlowe> and if you can get them dumps, that makes their life easier.
[09:46:50] <richlowe> tracking stuff down based on reading code, luck, and hoping you can maybe reproduce it is no fun at all. :)

[10:51:40] <asyd> don't ask to ask, just ask
[10:51:41] <Berny> if i understood the docs right, i have everything setup correctly... ip shows up in the zone (ifconfig -a says so) yet no networking possible
[10:52:22] <Berny> the zone has the centos stuff from the sun-provided image installed
[10:52:42] <Berny> networking is enabled in /etc/sysconfig/network
[10:53:34] <Berny> should netstat -rn show some routes?
[10:57:11] <raph_ael> hello
[10:57:33] <Berny> ok, if i snoop on the nic dedicated to the zone i see some outgoing packages

[12:15:26] *** calumb has joined #opensolaris
[12:17:39] <timeless> brand0?
[12:20:13] <Berny> lx brand... they have a sparc version, but are unable to recompile for solx86 :-\
[12:21:24] *** pogma_ has joined #opensolaris
[12:21:33] <Tpenta> why not?
[12:22:46] <Berny> dunno... maybe they're too busy to port their crap to linux (and ditch the sun compilers even for the sparc version in favour of gcc)
[12:23:35] <Tpenta> ummm the sun compilers exist on both solaris x86 AND linux
[12:23:52] <Berny> don't tell me
[12:23:57] <Tpenta> :-D
[12:24:07] <Berny> there still delivering sol8 on the sparc boxes they sell
[12:24:08] <zdzichuBG> Tpenta: really?
[12:24:15] *** miffe has joined #opensolaris
[12:24:26] <Tpenta> i believe so, there was a big press thing about it some months back
[12:24:27] <Berny> (that i understand as they have some freaky hardware stuff involved)
[12:25:59] <zdzichuBG> Tpenta: according to Sun pages they are only in Studio Express and "These early releases are alpha/beta quality software."
[12:26:06] <zdzichuBG> but they are! cool
[12:26:15] <Tpenta> :)
[12:26:34] <zdzichuBG> (no if only this freaking LDAP worked on Solarises in my cluster....)
[12:26:44] <Berny> though there stuff is funny in a way... they record some medical (meg) data and for each analysis they compile a piece of software to do noise reduction and stuff... for that they patch some parameters into their source and off goes gcc...
[12:27:02] <Tpenta> ouch
[12:27:06] <Tpenta> yeauch
[12:27:17] <Gr|ffous> what is the most common cause of this when compiling software? gcc: unrecognized option `-rdynamic'
[12:27:38] <Tpenta> ummm gcc not recognising hat option?
[12:28:00] <Gr|ffous> I understand the error, but I'm not sure if this means that I need be using some different configuration options, or if this is a problem with the automake included with the software in question
[12:28:23] <Tpenta> probably got makefiles generated for a different compiler
[12:28:26] * boyd wonders what thought processes lead to such an abomination
[12:28:37] <Tpenta> hi boyd
[12:28:48] <boyd> Hey alan
[12:28:57] <Gr|ffous> boyd, newbism?
[12:28:59] <boyd> How was your New-years?
[12:29:11] <Gr|ffous> er, newbieism
[12:29:53] <boyd> I liked newbism actually :)
[12:30:35] <Gr|ffous> cool :), so was your comment directed at me, and if so can you explain a bit more please?
[12:31:03] <boyd> It was directed at Berny's thing
[12:31:28] <Gr|ffous> ah ok then. Well I'll try again with $CC set
[12:34:34] <Berny> i don't think they think at all...
[12:35:01] <Berny> the database involved is a version from '94 or so (no sql etc)
[12:35:39] * boyd is not surprised. Medical IT is... different
[12:35:51] <Berny> very
[12:36:20] <Berny> i mean it's ok, to be a little behind because fda approval takes time... but they are still medieval
[12:38:03] <boyd> Indeed. Medieval is a good word
[12:38:07] <LeftWing> Long-running small business is often no better.  I know a local wardrobe manufacturer still using Windows 98 on workstations and a CRM system the guy wrote in QBASIC.
[12:38:22] <LeftWing> The "backend" was a 30MB text file. =P
[12:38:45] <Berny> thats fair enough as long as it works
[12:38:56] <LeftWing> heh
[12:39:28] <Berny> but those guys are shipping like one ne version a year, selling machinery for well over a million $ a piece so i would expect a little more...
[12:39:37] <Berny> well something working at least
[12:40:15] <Gr|ffous> ok, my config.mak had the offending line containing -rdynamic. Now my automake understand is highly limited. ./configure is meant to detect what arguements my compiler will take, and generate the config.mak accordingly right?
[12:40:18] <Berny> each time one of there processes goes haywire you have to stop the "database" run some magical scripts to clean up the leftovers and start again
[12:40:58] <boyd> As I said, I can't imagine what leads to making SW like you describe. but I *can* imagine what makes people charge for it :)
[12:42:11] <Berny> they are not the only ones who work this way :-\
[12:42:23] <Berny> siemens does, ge does...
[12:42:28] <zdzichuBG> http://thedailwtf.com is full to such projects :)
[12:42:31] <zdzichuBG> s/to/of
[12:42:56] <boyd> Yeah... well worth a read
[13:08:59] <Berny> well seems to work

[13:43:35] <trygvis> what's the easiest way to measure network traffic? is there something like an iftop in solaris?
[13:44:18] <dlg> is the source for ahci available?
[13:44:36] <quasi> trygvis: netstat can do it for you
[13:46:07] <quasi> trygvis: something like netstat -sP tcp 60
[13:47:45] <quasi> trygvis: or perhaps tcptop from the DTT
[13:48:23] <trygvis> thanks
[13:49:06] <zdzichuBG> tcptrack works on solaris
[13:49:14] <dvorak> there is a dtrace script that does it also
[13:49:19] <dvorak> or you can pull it out of kstat
[13:49:41] <quasi> dvorak: yeah, tcptop is dtrace
[13:51:19] <dvorak> actually, I'm thinking of nicstat
[13:51:23] <dvorak> which is perl
[13:51:30] <dvorak> kind of like vmstat, but for nic's
[13:54:36] <richlowe> dlg: yes.

[13:58:29] <tsoome> uh. it seems I have to modify solaris iso file.... the only way is to create new one?
[13:59:17] <quasi> tsoome: it is probably the easiest way to do it
[13:59:42] <Berny> tsoome: hex edit the iso *duck*
[13:59:43] <tsoome> lofiadm and mount the existing one will result read only fs
[13:59:49] <tsoome> :)
[13:59:58] <tsoome> hexedit is not a good idea:D
[14:00:25] <tsoome> ah, ok should find out how to create the bootable dvd iso....
[14:00:28] <IvanR_> richlowe: 560k? I bet your ip.c on compressed zfs.

[14:57:05] <LordKing> i add a network card to my solaris box. what must i do that solaris find it?
[14:57:23] <trygvis> load the driver perhaps
[14:57:40] <trygvis> and plumb the interace
[14:57:41] <trygvis> interface
[14:57:42] <richlowe> boot with -r
[14:57:49] <richlowe> and plumb the interface. :)
[14:58:13] <LordKing> boot with -r?  that i only know from sparc boxes, i talk about a x86?!
[14:59:00] <quasi> LordKing: touch /reconfigure will do the same
[14:59:19] <LordKing> ah, know i remember, thx
[14:59:40] <Stric> or run 'devfsadm -v'
[14:59:50] <Stric> instead of that "reboot" thing
[15:00:17] <quasi> Stric: x86 boxes are rarely hotplug anyway ;)
[15:01:02] <Stric> quasi: if you have already booted with the new card in..
[15:01:11] <quasi> Stric: sure
[15:03:42] <tomww> ifconfig -a plumb finds the new interface?
[15:04:45] <Stric> ifconfig blah0 plumb
[15:05:00] <Stric> to make it visible, then set ip etc
[15:08:13] <tomww> an "ifconfig -a" plumbs all known interfaces,
[15:08:29] <tomww> after that ifconfig -a   shows new interfaces with ipaddress 0.0.0.0
[15:08:42] <lasseoe> tomw: since when?
[15:09:13] <Stric> no, ifconfig -a  shows all plumbed interfaces
[15:09:16] <tomww> don't know since when this is the case
[15:09:50] <tomww> "ifconfig -a plumb" already tried? It should plumb all interfaces...
[15:10:02] <Stric> you just said "ifconfig -a" ;)
[15:10:10] <Stric> but "ifconfig -a plumb" works, yes..

[16:01:56] <cmihai> Same goes for writing NTFS.

[16:04:00] <aliquis> k, know what the ext2 part is called?
[16:04:26] <aliquis> if nothing else i guess i can always make an archive on fat32 in 2GB pieces
[16:04:49] <aliquis> would suck if such archive got corrupted in the process thought ;)

[16:49:38] <svoboda> can solaris mount ext2/3?  can linux mount ufs?
[16:49:55] <illsci> linux can mount ufs
[16:50:16] <illsci> if support is compiled into the kernel or there is a module for it
[16:50:45] <svoboda> thanks =)
[16:51:04] *** comay has quit IRC
[16:53:50] <aliquis> illsci: any ufs? suns ufs?
[16:54:03] <LordKing> ext2fs for Solaris: http://paulf.free.fr/software.html
[16:54:16] <andersmo> aliquis: I've mounted solaris ufs in linux, I think it worked. =)
[16:54:22] <jamesb> it does work
[16:54:28] <axisys> is sshd compiled with libwrap according to this? http://rafb.net/p/pAHTvl30.html
[16:54:29] <jamesb> did it a couple days ago in knoppix
[16:54:48] <jamesb> you need to specify the ufstype though
[17:00:43] *** |joni| has joined #opensolaris
[17:05:50] <aliquis> andersmo: nice
[17:05:56] <aliquis> andersmo: to bad i made my home zfs =P
[17:06:09] *** kman___ has quit IRC
[17:06:48] <aliquis> jamesb: ok, because i think freebsd uses ufs and ufs2 and openbsd might use ufs to, netbsd uses ffs and ffs2 i think.
[17:07:53] <andersmo> aliquis: well, maybe you want to experiment with zfs-on-fuse, then. =)
[17:07:59] <richlowe> there are many ufses, all slightly different.
[17:08:05] <richlowe> (NeXT had 2, I believe)
[17:08:14] <jamesb> heh :)
[17:08:31] <jamesb> linux mount (under knoppix) defaulted to "ufstype=old"
[17:08:34] <jamesb> whatever that means ;)
[17:09:19] <jamesb> but yes the manpage says they support: old, 44bsd, sun, sunx86, hp, nextstep, nextstep-cd, openstep
[17:12:27] <illsci> hey i have a question about processes on solaris
[17:12:36] <illsci> after this processes sees a fair amount of traffic, attempts to exit ( either gracefully or with kill -9), it takes on the order of minutes to actually exit
[17:12:53] <illsci> durring this time the cpu is 100% busy all in system time
[17:13:11] <illsci> my theory at this point is that its related to page accounting in some way, and the os is doing an excessive amount of cleanup related to this just before removing the process from the process table
[17:13:27] <illsci> i was wondering if there was any way to toggle this behavior on a per  process basis or even at all?
[17:13:56] *** swa_mobil has quit IRC
[17:14:09] <illsci> a guy in #solaris mentioned I could run pmap -x on the process and that might give me a hint if my theory is right or not and to ask in here...
[17:14:26] <aliquis> andersmo: i think the easiest would be to just format my sata disk ext2 and then move all my files over
[17:14:40] <aliquis> thought i doubt os x can read ext2
[17:14:41] <aliquis> =P
[17:15:19] <mrdeviant> aliquis, http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsx/
[17:15:22] <jamesb> actually I remember seeing an ext2 OS X project on sf
[17:15:23] <jamesb> ah
[17:15:23] <jamesb> :)
[17:15:24] <aliquis> jamesb: maybe "old" is whatever openbsd uses and 44bsd what freebsd uses or something, who knows
[17:16:36] <aliquis> k, i wonder how stable all that stuff is
[17:16:39] <richlowe> OpenBSD uses ffs, FreeBSD uses ffs (spelled ufs there) and ufs2.  NetBSD uses ffs and ufs2 (spelled ffs2 there).
[17:16:47] <aliquis> reason is i have 200gb ata and 250gb sata
[17:16:49] <richlowe> I believe the name changes are purely name changes, without other more important changes.
[17:16:52] <aliquis> on ata is 20gb ntfs with xp and rest solaris
[17:17:02] <aliquis> but os x on a normal pc runs better one ata than sata
[17:17:12] <aliquis> i rather move my files over to the sata disk and use the ata for os x
[17:17:52] <aliquis> illsci: i just wished all this filesystem issues died of and everyone could start using one filesystem
[17:17:57] <aliquis> why not call it just FS ;D
[17:18:40] <illsci> i heard there was some opensolaris internals guys in here...
[17:18:53] <illsci> solve my process problem so I can go back to browsing the web and email :)
[17:19:05] <Odin-LAP> aliquis: Because it's already called ZFS? *cough*
[17:19:36] <aliquis> Odin-LAP: Well, leopard got zfs support? freebsd will get it. But windows and linux still lack it ;)
[17:19:44] *** mega has quit IRC
[17:19:45] <aliquis> or well atleast partly in linux
[17:19:52] <aliquis> and never in kernel space i guess
[17:20:01] <aliquis> atleast not until it's released under gpl aswell
[17:20:41] <Odin-LAP> aliquis: There is the FUSE project; considering that Apple has already ported DTrace, they might do ZFS as well (isn't Darwin based on FreeBSD, anyway?).
[17:20:51] <Odin-LAP> In any case, Linux is behind the times. :p
[17:21:48] <aliquis> i think there are supposed to be zfs commands in leopard
[17:21:53] <aliquis> so i think it is already there
[17:22:07] <Odin-LAP> Huh. That's not something they've advertised.
[17:22:18] <aliquis> http://macslash.org/article.pl?sid=06/12/16/1437226
[17:22:28] <jamesb> and it's linked from the opensolaris ZFS main page
[17:22:29] <aliquis> http://mac4ever.com/news/27485/zettabyte_sur_leopard/
[17:22:30] <richlowe> there's rumours that ZFS is there.
[17:23:02] <aliquis> the question is if timemachine uses it
[17:23:10] <Odin-LAP> ...
[17:23:11] <aliquis> would seem like a good base for timemachine so why not
[17:23:15] <Odin-LAP> That might be it.
[17:23:36] <Odin-LAP> This XRay debugging tool of theirs is based on DTrace...
[17:23:41] <richlowe> Because sensibly they'd have to have that functionality for their other filesystems too.
[17:23:50] <richlowe> on zfs it maybe smarter, but it certainly shouldn't be zfs specific.
[17:23:53] <richlowe> ... if they actually do have zfs.
[17:27:49] <aliquis> richlowe: time machine are supposed to use another disk, i don't know if that affect if it can be zfs only or not thought
[17:28:58] <jamesb> zfs send?
[17:29:45] <aliquis> do you think i dare make 200GB ext2 and use that stuff over there to mount it in solaris and move my files over?
[17:30:18] <jamesb> how much do you like your data?
[17:31:32] <jteo> that sounds exciting.

[18:03:16] <Stric> astinus: but not always

[18:03:43] <Stric> the faster memory needs to be refreshed X times per second, if you refresh it less often, it might not work

[18:05:04] <_syphilis_> is it reasonable that when a drive reports 'media error encountered', it should be replaced ASAP even if it still seems to be working?
[18:05:37] <Stric> _syphilis_: if it's reported on a read it might not mean much.. but if it's reported on a write, that probably means it has run out of spare blocks

[18:06:48] <_syphilis_> tomww: nothing, it's in an external array
[18:07:23] <svoboda> syphilis: that shouldn't matter.  # iostat -En should report errors
[18:07:39] <svoboda> if they are soft errors; you can issue a # format -> analyse -> read

[18:42:29] <scode> Stric: But zil_disables intent logging globally. The problem is not that I want faster synchronour performance on ZFS, I want the nfs server not to *request* synchronous semantics with an fsync() because I don't care whether a file is on stable storage after it was created over NFS...

[21:11:36] <sahafeez> bad code?
[21:11:44] <jamesb> it's a clean checkout

[21:28:55] <Error_404> I don't really understand why my school's network won't let me connect to IRC
[21:29:02] <Error_404> MSN is fair game, ssh is fair game
[21:29:05] <Error_404> but irc? not so much
[21:29:55] <_syphilis_> cuz 99% of clients on irc are drones from hacked boxes ;P
[21:30:02] <Error_404> makes sense
[21:30:16] <Error_404> meh, i can still ssh tunnel home

[21:39:01] <Kronuz> hello, happy new year! :)
[21:39:37] <Kronuz> hey, does anyone have experience with video and audio capture servers?
[21:40:05] <Kronuz> (and audio/video streaming)
[21:41:04] <Kronuz> I need some direction finding servers for that
[21:41:29] <_syphilis_> still working on that, huh? :)
[21:41:34] <lasseoe> google: unix media streaming
[21:41:43] <Kronuz> well, now's different thing :P
[21:41:50] <Kronuz> bunch of projects I'm into
[21:42:32] <Kronuz> but I haven't found what servers can do video capturing
[21:43:00] <Kronuz> I'd like to be able to capture about 6 or 7 channels and about 20 audio channels
[21:43:10] <Kronuz> 6 or 7 video channels, that is
[21:43:55] <quasi> that's not going to be easy if you want decent quality
[21:44:00] <Kronuz> and I was hoping I could do that in a single server with the right cards
[21:44:08] <Kronuz> it's for internet streaming
[21:44:16] <zdzichuBG> you need x4500 :)
[21:44:17] <Kronuz> so it doesn't have to be very high quality
[21:44:35] *** hspaan1 has joined #opensolaris
[21:44:39] <Kronuz> but what about the capture cards
[21:44:45] <quasi> Kronuz: streaming pr0n? ;)
[21:44:49] <Kronuz> I mean, I'd need 7 video cards?
[21:44:52] <Kronuz> nope
[21:44:53] <Kronuz> news
[21:45:16] <Kronuz> (7 video capturing cards)
[21:45:27] <quasi> you'd probably be better off with 7 cheaper machines
[21:45:34] <Kronuz> quasi: what's pr0n?
[21:45:34] <zdzichuBG> live streams? so you don't need x4500
[21:45:38] <Kronuz> ;)
[21:46:00] <Kronuz> zdzichuBG: yeah, live but also the non-live kind too
[21:46:16] <Kronuz> (as to store old clips)
[21:46:44] <Kronuz> I'm a bit lost about the streaming too... I'm not sure if it uses TCP or UDP or what
[21:47:02] <quasi> Kronuz: are we talking a small hobby project or is it aiming and something big willing to spend $$?
[21:47:02] <Kronuz> basically there are the two parts of it: capturing and streaming
[21:47:19] <Kronuz> quasi: depends on how much $$
[21:47:24] <Kronuz> but there's some budget
[21:48:21] <Error_404> correct me if I'm wrong, but theoretically it's possible to run a zone with a loopback network device
[21:48:44] <Error_404> (eg, add net; set address=127.0.0.100; set physical=lo0; end )
[21:49:03] *** miffe_ has quit IRC
[21:49:13] <Kronuz> quasi: I was hoping to get a couple cards that could capture a few video channels but I'm not sure... also how would I caputre all the 20 audio channels too :S
[21:49:47] <quasi> Kronuz: you problem is then that opensolaris currently doesn't really have any support for the low end gear - only the bleedin expensive stuff afaik
[21:50:24] <Kronuz> quasi: for video and audio processing and streaming, you mean
[21:50:55] <quasi> Kronuz: yeah, something like that
[21:51:17] <Kronuz> but anyway, do you know if there are video capture cards and audio cards that can capture more than one or two channels?
[21:51:26] <Kronuz> instead of using a bunch of cards
[21:51:42] <Kronuz> also hardware encoding would be probably good
[21:51:55] <Kronuz> but I'm not sure what encoding format I want to be able to easily stream it later on
[21:52:34] <quasi> yes, I know that there are and no, I can't remember what they're called but they were linux/windos only so far from topic here
[21:53:01] <Kronuz> I see
[21:53:47] <lasseoe> loads of stuff available, Scientific Atlanta probably has some
[21:54:14] <lasseoe> not cards though, but external hardware
[21:57:36] <Kronuz> hmm
[21:58:24] <Kronuz> I'm just guessing but that sciatl sounds expensive...
[21:58:56] <lasseoe> What you want to do isn't necessarily cheap :)
[21:59:27] <Kronuz> hehe :)
[22:01:11] <onbot> commit by apersson:  6507504 IPv6 ill MIB counters are not being sync'ed
[22:01:20] <lasseoe> the X2100M2 eLOM is absolutely rubbish :(
[22:02:14] *** rcheli has joined #opensolaris
[22:03:03] <rcheli> Besides "format", is there another way to find out the hard drives on a system without being root ?
[22:03:36] <Auralis> iostat -E
[22:05:11] <rcheli> Auralis: that doesn't give me the drive names like  c1t0d0, etc.
[22:05:29] <richlowe> ... yes it does.
[22:05:38] <richlowe> oh, no it doesn't.
[22:05:40] <richlowe> rcheli: iostat -En
[22:05:43] <_syphilis_> not on ide it doesn't
[22:05:48] <_syphilis_> but what's wrong with 'format'?
[22:05:52] <richlowe> _syphilis_: yeah, I read an 'n' that wasn't there.
[22:06:12] <richlowe> _syphilis_: you need to be root.
[22:06:21] <richlowe> (to run format, even to do nothing with it)
[22:06:37] <_syphilis_> richlowe: even with -n i'm sure i recall -E not listing standard IDE devices (ATAPI ones are shown)
[22:06:38] <rcheli> ahh, -En  did it
[22:06:41] <rcheli> thanks  :)
[22:06:46] <_syphilis_> maybe i made that up though
[22:06:47] <richlowe> _syphilis_: it does here.
[22:06:52] <quasi> lasseoe: +1 on the M2 loms being crap
[22:07:07] <_syphilis_> is the x4200 m2 lom the same as the x4200 lom?
[22:07:26] * quasi is in the middle of putting together a hate mail to his account mgr about the crappy lom
[22:07:35] <quasi> _syphilis_: no
[22:07:49] <_syphilis_> what, they added yet another different interface?
[22:08:15] <zdzichuBG> is this somethin like x2200 elom ? with blue/cyan colors ?
[22:08:22] <lasseoe> I can't figure out why the webserver doesn't work :-/
[22:08:24] <quasi> it is not that different, but just more buggy
[22:08:35] <quasi> zdzichuBG: yes, exactly the same
[22:08:42] *** deather_ is now known as deather
[22:08:49] <quasi> zdzichuBG: x2200s are what I've used
[22:08:54] *** eboutilier has quit IRC
[22:08:59] <_syphilis_> .. i meant to say x2100m2 there, not x4200
[22:09:31] <quasi> lasseoe: I've had no problems with the web junk - except you can't tunnel the console from the web interface
[22:09:48] <quasi> lasseoe: it just worked out of the box
[22:10:07] <zdzichuBG> x2200 elom at least have email notification, x4200 m1 don't
[22:10:12] <lasseoe> quasi: there's nothing on port 80  :-
[22:10:14] <lasseoe> :-/
[22:10:24] <quasi> lasseoe: how about 443?
[22:10:31] <lasseoe> quasi: same deal
[22:10:34] <quasi> lasseoe: you can turn off the answer on 80
[22:10:56] <quasi> lasseoe: you can turn both off in the cli
[22:11:18] <lasseoe> quasi: where?
[22:11:42] <zdzichuBG> ssh into it, or use serial connection
[22:12:01] <lasseoe> yeah I know that much, but I can't find it there :)
[22:12:15] <quasi> lasseoe: uhm, trying to remember
[22:15:03] <quasi> lasseoe: I'm pretty sure it was in the doc ;)
[22:15:20] <quasi> lasseoe: I can't remember the location just now
[22:15:31] <lasseoe> Read the X2100 M2 Inst Guide back to front and I don't see anything about it
[22:16:11] <quasi> there's also another guide iirc
[22:16:29] <lasseoe> or does that only work when you're not redirecting the console to serial ?
[22:17:01] <quasi> I don't think that should make a difference
[22:17:08] <lasseoe> That wouldn't surprise me.
[22:17:22] <quasi> the console to serial is causing me a lot of headaches
[22:17:53] <lasseoe> like?
[22:18:57] <quasi> like not getting console to work at all through the cli
[22:19:02] <quasi> os console
[22:20:08] <lasseoe> oh lovely!
[22:20:18] <quasi> it only works if you start the console before booting the os
[22:20:25] <lasseoe> makes it completely useless
[22:20:46] <quasi> yes
[22:21:01] <quasi> it worked in the non M2 models
[22:22:21] *** yarihm has joined #OpenSolaris
[22:23:53] <tomww> there was a not about the bios version for automaticly tuning on the serial console over the serviceprocessor
[22:24:55] <tomww> for s10u3 i hat to tell grub the -B console=ttya to have a old style serial console for install an normal use...
[22:25:25] <tomww> (on x4200m2)
[22:25:49] <quasi> yeah, I do that as well - but it doesn't seem to be enough
[22:25:59] <lasseoe> ee the "Embedded Lights Out Manager Administration Guide" for more details on how to use the Embedded LOM GUI
[22:26:04] <lasseoe> which doesn't exist
[22:26:39] <quasi> tomww: and really couldn't affect the output of bios and first grub screen
[22:27:07] <quasi> lasseoe: sure it does - http://www.sun.com/products-n-solutions/hardware/docs/pdf/819-6588-12.pdf
[22:27:17] <quasi> lasseoe: Embedded Lights Out Manager Adminstration Guide for the Sun Fire X2100 M2 and Sun Fire X2200 M2 Servers
[22:27:58] <lasseoe> quasi: when you search for "Embedded Lights Out Manager" on docs.sun.com it doesn't show up
[22:28:18] <Doc> that's because docs.sun.com doesnt generally contain hardware docs
[22:28:36] <quasi> lasseoe: that one was out of the x2200 docs overview you get on sunsolve - system handbook
[22:28:40] <tomww> in my example the bios setting for redirecting console was set set to "always"
[22:28:53] <lasseoe> Doc: I'd say it's 50/50 which is a mess
[22:29:07] <lasseoe> and docs.sun.com should contain hardware docs
[22:29:10] <lasseoe> imho
[22:29:32] <Doc> just use the sun system handbook

[22:48:11] <onbot> commit by Cynthia McGuire:  6509315 memory leak in iob_enum()
[22:48:37] <Error_404> the commits are all boring this cycle
[22:48:43] <lasseoe> hm
[22:49:04] <lasseoe> I find it odd that the X2100 M2 docs state that DIMMs _MUST_ be removed and installed in pairs
[22:49:11] <lasseoe> yet the box ships with just one DIMM
[22:50:23] <Error_404> that's because you're a cheapskate
[22:50:24] <Error_404> ;)
[22:50:30] *** aliquis has left #opensolaris
[22:50:48] <lasseoe> no I bought 2x1GB on the side which I wanted to install
[22:51:01] <lasseoe> but now I'm a little puzzled
[22:51:42] <Doc> you need to remove the 1 DIMM that came with it, and install the 2 new ones
[22:51:54] <Doc> the only valid configs are 1 DIMM, _or_ pairs of DIMMs
[22:52:17] <Error_404> no 3x1GB allowed? that's odd
[22:52:30] <_syphilis_> is that true for all opterons, or do some require larger tuples of dimms?
[22:52:44] <Doc> nah.. the bit thats odd is that we allow the single DIMM config
[22:52:51] <Doc> blame marketing
[22:52:53] <lasseoe> Doc: ok thanks, the docs should state that a bit clearer perhaps
[22:53:08] <lasseoe> yeah it's a gready way of making money
[22:53:12] <Doc> lasseoe: when the doc was written i suspect the single dimm config wasnt supported
[22:53:20] <lasseoe> Doc: could be yeah
[22:53:36] <Doc> you take a performance hit with odd numbers of dimms
[22:53:56] <lasseoe> Yes I realise that, I was just expecting two DIMMs for that reason
[22:54:10] <lasseoe> and when I saw there was only one I started wondering what was going on
