[03:59:21] <edwardocallaghan> I will have another look when I get back to the system [03:59:52] <steleman> edwardocallaghan: if you built MySQL yourself, take a look in the test directory. there are a bunch of scripts files there, and one of them initializes MySQL [03:59:55] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: ...of course /usr/local/mysql could be *anywhere* on your system depending on where it actually is. [04:00:19] <edwardocallaghan> Who maintains this page: http://cooltools.sunsource.net/coolstack/index.html ? [04:00:52] <edwardocallaghan> I really would like a little documentation on the package [04:00:54] <Error_404> *yawn* evening all [04:01:01] <steleman> hiya error :-) [04:01:08] <edwardocallaghan> Hi [04:01:15] *** jsubl2 has joined #opensolaris [04:01:30] <_syphilis_> this is all documented in the mysql manual [04:01:34] <edwardocallaghan> Error Will Robinson [04:01:51] <edwardocallaghan> It did not setup any man pages [04:01:57] *** swa__ has joined #opensolaris [04:02:06] <edwardocallaghan> I don't yet get the Sun packaging system [04:02:27] <edwardocallaghan> In Linux you just do yum install httpd and you get Apache [04:02:50] <Stric> yum: Command not found (linux) .. ;) [04:03:11] <steleman> edwardocallaghan: yes but you do not know the wonderful things happening inside yum. [04:03:19] <edwardocallaghan> lol sorry I was referring to RPM's :p [04:03:38] <edwardocallaghan> Yes I can you rpm [04:03:39] <steleman> yum is but a prelude to the unknown song called "rpm". [04:04:03] <edwardocallaghan> rpm -qa | grep something [04:04:07] <edwardocallaghan> I know I know [04:04:16] <Error_404> rpm was a pretty close model of SVR packages back in the 5.x days [04:04:23] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: I've found that the Sun packaging tools have a tedency not to hold one's hand as much as apt or yum. [04:04:26] <edwardocallaghan> I can use Linux well but I am learning Solaris [04:04:35] <Error_404> s/hold one's hand/break one's system [04:04:37] <edwardocallaghan> Yes indeed [04:04:54] <steleman> rpm is similar to pkgadd [04:04:59] <edwardocallaghan> That's fine for me [04:05:01] <lloy0076> Error_404: If you know what you're doing, apt on Debian GNU/Linux is unlikely to break a server system. [04:05:46] <lloy0076> Error_404: The problem with apt is that it makes anyone think they can be a system administrator and not understand what the various scripts and such are actually doing... [04:05:57] <lloy0076> Error_404: Which will get you whatever system you happen to be trying to administer/use. [04:06:00] <edwardocallaghan> But I am some what surprised that there is no one PDF that gets you setup a SAMP server from docs.sun.com ? [04:06:02] <steleman> apt is only for the initiated. [04:06:19] <steleman> hence its name. [04:06:22] <delewis> edwardocallaghan: PHP isn't shipped with any Sun product, so why would there be a doc on docs.sun.com? [04:06:25] <Error_404> edwardocallaghan: step one, edit your httpd.conf [04:06:38] <Error_404> step 2, enable it, it's in svcs [04:07:03] <edwardocallaghan> I know how to do that, it works that's not what I am asking ! [04:07:06] <lloy0076> Shit [04:07:10] * lloy0076 has something on the stove [04:07:19] <Error_404> and now it's on fire [04:07:32] <edwardocallaghan> Cool [04:07:37] *** peteh has quit IRC [04:07:40] <steleman> apt turn-off-burning-schnitzel [04:07:53] <edwardocallaghan> Now Apache is working after the google'th time [04:08:01] <lloy0076> lol [04:08:10] *** peteh has joined #opensolaris [04:08:19] <Error_404> it's also in blastwave, sunfreeware, you can compile it, etc [04:08:48] <edwardocallaghan> MySQL is the problem and I am using CSQamp and that's meant to make it easy [04:08:52] * lloy0076 LLOY0076 vs THE OPENSOLARIS FOUNDATION - "That #OpenSolaris Distracted Him Long Enough to Cause a House Fire" [04:09:12] <edwardocallaghan> Yes we know, httpd is not a big deal I mastered that when I was 12 [04:09:32] <edwardocallaghan> lol [04:09:35] <_syphilis_> isn't hubris a sin? [04:10:50] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: You could just install a Centos 3.8 BrandZ zone and use yum to install MySQL on Linux... [04:10:51] <steleman> we are all sinners. [04:10:52] * lloy0076 evil grin [04:12:00] <edwardocallaghan> No way ! [04:12:12] <edwardocallaghan> I am trying to learn Solaris here [04:12:30] <edwardocallaghan> So if you don't know the answer then don't make stuff up [04:12:39] *** uncertainty_ has joined #opensolaris [04:13:00] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: I obviously do know the answer, and I thought I pointed out a number of documents that could have been helpful. [04:13:03] <_syphilis_> if you really want to learn you might want to reconsider what you know and what you've mastered based on more than the ability to "yum install mysql" [04:13:05] <edwardocallaghan> Its simple when you know how, it just want to start a %^&* service [04:13:08] <_syphilis_> just imho. [04:13:26] <delewis> edwardocallaghan: and I told you [04:13:27] <edwardocallaghan> lol [04:13:30] <delewis> create an init script [04:13:38] <edwardocallaghan> I am reading pages [04:13:39] <delewis> and throw it in the appropriate rc*.d directory. [04:13:48] <lloy0076> delewis: Does that still work? [04:13:58] <edwardocallaghan> yes it does [04:13:59] <delewis> uh, why wouldn't it? [04:14:00] <lloy0076> delewis: I thought SMF kinda did away with that... [04:14:09] <delewis> lloy0076: no. [04:14:16] <delewis> init scripts still work fine. [04:14:22] <lloy0076> No idea why it owuldn't work. It just never occurred to me to try it. [04:14:23] <edwardocallaghan> I know but I need to find the file that starts the service [04:14:38] <delewis> lloy0076: look in /etc/init.d at the number of init scripts still lying around. [04:14:51] <edwardocallaghan> Its not part of Solaris [04:15:04] <delewis> edwardocallaghan: uh, create one? [04:15:18] <delewis> all you have to do is call the mysqld_start daemon or whatever it is. [04:15:31] <steleman> eddwardocallaghan: if you just compiled this bunch there's no SMF manifest for it, so that might be the reason why you can't find it [04:16:33] <lloy0076> http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/unix-post-installation.html [04:17:16] <lloy0076> If push comes to shove and you can't work out where the world it's installed it, then: cd / && find . | grep mysqld [04:17:21] <Stric> lloy0076: svcs|grep legacy [04:17:25] <lloy0076> That would be awfully slow but it would work. [04:17:32] <edwardocallaghan> This is the package (CSQamp) it has no doc's and its readme files don't tell http://cooltools.sunsource.net/coolstack/index.html so I know nothing about how it would work with SMF or init or what ever [04:17:43] <delewis> or just grep for CSQmysql (or whatever it is) in /var/adm/package/contents [04:17:56] *** Tpenta has quit IRC [04:18:05] <delewis> /var/sadm/install/contents* [04:18:18] <edwardocallaghan> I know its installed in /usr/local [04:18:26] <edwardocallaghan> I am in a loop here [04:18:59] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: In /usr/local, is there a directory called mysql? i.e. is /usr/local/mysql a directory? [04:19:20] *** uncertainty has quit IRC [04:19:36] <edwardocallaghan> yes [04:19:57] <Error_404> i'm relatively certain that SX:CR ships with mysql already installed [04:20:03] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: Ok, in /usr/local/mysql is there a directory called "support-files". [04:20:03] <Error_404> i know that postgres is [04:20:12] <lloy0076> Error_404: It does but it's MySQL 4.0.X. [04:20:23] <delewis> which *cough* isn't a real RDBMS :-) [04:20:34] <Error_404> delewis: which, mysql or postgresql? [04:20:39] <LeftWing> Whereas the PostgreSQL version that's shipped (8.1) is actually useful. [04:20:40] <lloy0076> delewis: Agreed - mysql 4.0.X is an abomination. [04:20:41] <delewis> Error_404: MySQL-4.x [04:20:48] <edwardocallaghan> if (n >= google) get server up else -1 and ask another question that's almost the same as the last one [04:20:48] <delewis> no triggers :-( [04:21:16] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: Is there a directory called supprt-files in /usr/local/mysql/ ???? [04:21:24] * delewis wishes there was an Oracle XE for Solaris [04:21:36] <LeftWing> Yeah, I'm surprised that there isn't. [04:21:37] <Error_404> LeftWing: what i don't get is why the postgres that comes with solaris doesn't include dtrace [04:21:44] <edwardocallaghan> I don't know I'll have to setup a test server here as I am not at the system now [04:21:45] <lloy0076> delewis: And transactions - who needs transactions? :( [04:21:48] <LeftWing> Error_404: Because that DTrace stuff came in to 8.2 I believe. [04:21:50] <delewis> LeftWing: indeed, it'd certainly put a hole in the PostgreSQL/MySQL market there. [04:22:03] <LeftWing> delewis: Well, I don't know about that. [04:22:08] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: If there is, then there's a script in that directory called mysql.server ... [04:22:11] <steleman> MySQL5 is another abomination [04:22:16] <jamesd> Error_404, its comming i guess they haven't got it in yet.. the code is being worked on if not complete. [04:22:29] <delewis> LeftWing: Oracle XE is pretty ideal for a web server-like environment that you find PostgreSQL and MySQL to be popular in. [04:22:36] <delewis> and you still get a lot of the Oracle functionality. [04:22:36] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: In which case /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server start | restart | stop will start or stop the service... [04:22:54] *** yarihm has quit IRC [04:23:13] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: The others are saying that if you can get that script called with the right arguments with SMF or an RC script in /etc/rc* you'll be fine. [04:23:30] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: If that script doesn't exist, then you'll have to do a full mysld_safe incantation... [04:23:30] <LeftWing> delewis: Fair enough. I don't think it'll drastically hit the market share of pgsql or mysql, though. [04:23:42] <lloy0076> edwardocallaghan: (in which case it would be best to lookup the docs to do that) [04:23:50] <delewis> LeftWing: if it call came to practicality, it would. Unfortunately, you've also got religion involved. [04:24:06] <delewis> s/call/all/ [04:24:31] <LeftWing> How resource-heavy is XE? [04:24:39] <lloy0076> heh@oracle [04:25:09] <delewis> LeftWing: not too bad, I would guess, given you don't have a lot of the additions that are in Enterprise. [04:25:14] <delewis> like Enterprise Manager, etc. [04:25:27] <lloy0076> I had an application that was running on two processors. Oracle quotes me $X. IBM DB2 quotes me $X/2. I go back to Oracle. Oracle adjusts their quote to be $X/2. [04:25:32] <delewis> Oracle, itself, isn't that bad for a small database. It's all of the extra services that become quite hefty. [04:25:45] <lloy0076> I'm like: WTF, you can just drop the price by 2? :( [04:25:48] <delewis> lloy0076: that's pretty common. [04:25:58] <delewis> threaten Oracle with a DB2 purchase and they always do that. [04:26:13] <edwardocallaghan> OK thanks I'll try that in a sec [04:26:22] <edwardocallaghan> I am getting my test server up [04:26:27] <lloy0076> DB2 eventually won out because we went to an IBM hardware solution too and I got IBM to discountit further. [04:26:42] <delewis> or if you're FedEx (when FedEx when with Sybase back in the mid-90s), Oracle just drops you and picks up UPS for all shipping, instead. :-) [04:26:50] <delewis> s/when/went/ [04:28:02] <LeftWing> haha [04:28:09] <LeftWing> It must be great to have that much money. ;P [04:28:23] <delewis> and yes, that's true. Oracle had completely gone with UPS by the next day. [04:28:51] <lloy0076> heh [04:30:34] <delewis> my problem with DB2 is the lack of a development stack -- it has nothing like Oracle has, though, Oracle has some annoying cruft of its own, IMO *cough* TNS *cough* [04:31:08] *** jsubl2 has quit IRC [04:31:45] <lloy0076> delewis: We went to a DB2 or Oracle because it was less hassle trying to explain to customers what DB2 and Oracle is than Postgresql. [04:32:04] <lloy0076> delewis: People would go "What's Postgresql" but the moment you mention IBM or Oracle they'd just assume it works. [04:32:07] <lloy0076> *heh* [04:32:34] <jbk> heh db2 connect seems to piss me off on a regular basis [04:32:44] <delewis> well, PostgreSQL still has very meager replication functionality and zero partitioning capabilities. [04:32:55] <delewis> which pretty much makes it useless in a large database environment. [04:33:15] <delewis> and that's something Oracle and especially, DB2, and have been on top of for years. [04:33:18] <jbk> heh.. you'd be surprised about some of the large databases that don't use replication or partitioning :) [04:33:32] <Stric> 8.X can split out tables to different places if that's what you mean [04:33:34] <jbk> or you might cry.. [04:33:40] *** jsubl2 has joined #opensolaris [04:33:51] <delewis> jbk: not really. Oracle is big enough, so of course, you're going to have DBAs running around that aren't using all of its functionality. [04:33:58] <lloy0076> select count(cia.weapons_of_mass_destruction) from WMD where country_id="iraq"; [04:34:04] <lloy0076> Result (0 rows returned). [04:34:09] <delewis> Stric: to different 'places' meaning tablespaces or different systems? [04:34:32] <Stric> delewis: you can put table blah in /crap and table bleh in /goodstuff [04:34:54] <delewis> what kind of granularity? tables or rows? [04:35:08] <jbk> i think delewis is talking at the row level [04:35:19] <jbk> split the rows out to different locations based on a column value [04:35:20] <Stric> tables [04:35:44] <delewis> you can tell Oracle to throw table "bar" on systems larry, moe, and curly where each system has 10,000 rows of the 30,000 row foo table. [04:35:53] <delewis> Stric: yeah, that's not partitioning. [04:36:09] <delewis> and last time I checked, all the developers working on partitioning had either died or gave up. [04:36:35] <delewis> and you can do indexing across partitioned tables, too. [04:37:30] <LeftWing> There are, of course, a wealth of applications that still aren't of a size in most instances to warrant such features anyway. [04:37:44] <delewis> LeftWing: you'd be surprised by how many Oracle customers *do* need that. [04:37:58] <LeftWing> delewis: What I was about to say was that if you have those requirements you can probably afford Oracle. =P [04:38:03] <delewis> most business chains use that functionality, like WalMart which has *huge* tables. [04:38:34] <edwardocallaghan> cat edward <>/dev/random [04:38:42] <delewis> LeftWing: I always say, "If you can't afford Oracle, you probably (or rather, more than likely) don't need it" [04:39:05] <LeftWing> delewis: Mmm. [04:39:30] <steleman> francis ford coppola's daughter built herself a database of her wardrobe + shoes running Oracle on HP-UX 10.0 [04:39:39] <steleman> she didn't need it, but she could afford it. [04:40:06] <LeftWing> heh [04:40:21] <steleman> it cost something like USD 60K [04:40:25] <delewis> Stric: I never said the converse or the contrapositive was true :-) [04:40:34] <delewis> er, steleman [04:40:51] <steleman> :-) [04:41:57] <edwardocallaghan> Installation of <CSQamp> was successful.

[05:01:19] <edwardocallaghan> I love StarOffice I love the Maths writer [05:01:20] <steleman> it doesnt even look bad [05:01:21] <jamesd> i haven't seen any reason to move to office 2007, or vista for that matter [05:01:42] <lloy0076> jamesd: http://www.bibl.ulaval.ca/lius/index.en.html [05:01:43] <Error_404> edwardocallaghan: i use TeX for that [05:01:48] *** jsubl2 has joined #opensolaris [05:01:53] <lloy0076> "The LIUS framework adds to Lucene many files format indexing fonctionalities as: Ms Word, Ms Excel, Ms PowerPoint, RTF, PDF, XML, HTML, TXT, Open Office suite and JavaBeans."

[05:03:00] <Error_404> yes [05:03:13] <jamesd> thanks for all the sudgestions i'm going to give phpdig a try it seems like a nice small simple solution that doesn't need 5000 gnome libs or java. [05:03:19] <dlg> heh [05:03:42] <jamesd> of course if phpdig turns out to be crap i will ask again tomorow :-) [05:03:54] <lloy0076> jamesd: It does, however, need PHP which isn't part of a Solaris distribution from Sun. [05:03:57] * steleman has a premonition [05:04:18] <Error_404> ? [05:04:29] <steleman> it relates to php [05:04:30] <jamesd> lloy0076, well most people don't mind using blastwave or apache1 that includes php i think [05:04:46] <lloy0076> Fair enough, I guess. [05:05:03] <LeftWing> A lot of people don't mind using Java, either. =P [05:05:04] <jamesd> i can also use nexenta that makes php easy to get... [05:05:34] <jamesd> i don't really know java, and java + zfs sounds like a very expensive memory solution. [05:05:49] <delewis> J2EE is pretty complex. [05:06:42] <lloy0076> Jave EE is an improvement of J2EE. [05:06:47] <delewis> and likewise, development time is far more than it is with PHP. [05:06:53] <jamesd> the phpdig solution makes sense since i was going to make search an intranet web based solution anyway... so people can access there word based docs without using an X based app [05:06:56] <Error_404> delewis: not if you do it wrong [05:06:58] <Error_404> heh [05:06:59] <lloy0076> They suddenly realised that having a heap of XML cruft makes it rather non-understandable. [05:07:10] <Error_404> you can use JSP in more or less the same way as PHP [05:07:11] <delewis> lloy0076: you don't say :-) [05:07:22] <Error_404> except then you're creating bad javaee code [05:07:35] <Error_404> pretty standard php code though so *shrug* [05:08:02] <LeftWing> heh [05:08:41] <delewis> I just don't care for the majority of "web development" languages, in general.

[05:09:59] <steleman> delewis: in al fairness, java didnt start as a web language. it just became that out of convenience. [05:10:12] <Error_404> steleman: and lack of other purpose?

[05:12:01] <steleman> lloy: yes you could fuck your system in 3 seconds or less [05:12:14] <Gr|ffous> a challenge you say? [05:12:15] <steleman> java would do that too but it needs 2 minutes [05:12:24] <Error_404> and a gig of ram [05:12:54] <lloy0076> I wrote a Perl and a Java program to convert a decimal digit to binary. [05:13:02] <lloy0076> I used the same algorithm in both. [05:13:05] <Error_404> java's faster [05:13:11] <Error_404> it just eats more ram [05:13:19] <lloy0076> If I repeated it < 5 times, Perl ran faster. [05:13:24] <delewis> ugh, PHP still sucks with Oracle. [05:13:27] <lloy0076> But > 5 times, Java would get it. [05:13:29] <delewis> weird connection issues. [05:13:30] <LeftWing> And it doesn't make sense to write a Java app to do one calculation. ;P [05:13:35] <Error_404> delewis: you're mixing php and oracle? [05:13:42] <delewis> "Warning: ocilogon() [function.ocilogon]: OCIEnvNlsCreate() failed. There is something wrong with your system" [05:13:50] <lloy0076> The thing is, that I generally would only use such a thing on an occasional basis so the Java startup hit is a PITA. [05:14:12] <lloy0076> I did find that writing my own "pow" function in Java was more efficient than using Math.pow. [05:14:22] <Error_404> seems kinna like drinking a $300 bottle of wine out of paper cups [05:14:31] <lloy0076> Probably because Math.pow was converting int to double and back whereas mine was pure integer maths. [05:14:46] <delewis> Error_404: not really. [05:15:03] <delewis> you can still do all your magic PL/SQL and execute the procedures in PHP.

[05:17:35] * steleman faints [05:17:42] <Error_404> delewis: yeah [05:17:49] <Error_404> seems like a bad idea to me [05:17:58] <Error_404> it's important to learn proper memory management [05:18:33] <steleman> Error: yes. it helps in getting a job. [05:19:14] <steleman> at my previous job i used to nix any candidate who could not write strcpy(3C) with pointer arithmetic [05:19:49] <LeftWing> Provided they actually teach Java rather than just spoonfeeding canned class definitions, it won't be all bad. There's more to programming than just memory management. Are they still teaching other languages in later years? [05:20:00] <delewis> the Solaris libc implementation of strcpy uses pointer arithmetic.

[05:56:06] <Error_404> erm, seems like someone moved to california to get a job with apple & failed [05:57:45] <Error_404> if i were management, i'd fire them [05:58:02] <Error_404> quite aside from what company it were [05:58:15] *** Theoden-Nexenta has left #opensolaris [05:58:31] <Error_404> personal blog = badmouthing your employer is bad form... on a company blog it seems nigh-unacceptable [05:58:34] <jamesd> well it should be interesting to see if he approves my comment... [05:58:44] <Error_404> comment? [06:00:01] <lloy0076> Error_404: Personally, if I'd found such an experience, I'd try quietly finding out internally whether anyone else had the same experience. If it seemed noone else had, then I'd double check what I was doing and if it seemed valid, then I'd work out how to raise the issue internally. [06:00:14] <jamesd> i commented, that he should do a few more benchmarks like run 3 or 4 of the glassfish installs at one time, perhaps with some disk io, and then pointed out that the intel fsb will kill performance if the box was pushed hard, and then requested that he plug in a 4GB/s fcal card into his laptop and see how it responds. [06:01:15] <Error_404> lloy0076: that'd be a far more democratic way of doing it [06:01:38] <Error_404> rather than badmouthing the company you work for [06:01:59] <lloy0076> Mind you, how do we know the motive? The motive could be to get fired :( [06:02:25] <jamesd> lloy0076, there are easier ways... [06:02:39] <jamesd> he could of asked to be layed off.. [06:02:56] <lloy0076> Why choose an easy way when you can make your and everyone else's life hell? [06:04:14] <jamesd> because sun could file with the enemployment agency that he was grossly imcompetent and thus doesn't deserve unemployment and who knows what will be whispered when his next employer calls for a recomendation [06:04:21] <Error_404> lloy0076: because you get EI when you get laid off ? [06:04:29] *** jsubl2 has quit IRC [06:04:36] <Error_404> i dunno, does california have some sort of (un)employment insurance? [06:04:47] <jamesd> Error_404, yes it does..

[06:05:24] <Error_404> here as well [06:05:59] <Error_404> but if there's a round of layoffs coming, you can put your name in the hat & still collect [06:06:02] <jamesd> of course its only 20% of your gross pay so its not exactly a replacement [06:06:13] <Error_404> getting fired, you get nothing [06:06:18] <jamesd> for keeping a job at sun. [06:06:23] <Error_404> (for most cases) [06:07:12] * lloy0076 ponders [06:07:21] <lloy0076> I really don't understand the American (lack of) social security system. [06:07:42] * steleman thinks this person is at this point un-fireable [06:08:00] <jamesd> social security is for the elderly... [06:08:01] <lloy0076> How can anyone be "un-fireable"? [06:08:42] <steleman> lloy: if Sun touches this person, this person can claim that their firing was retribution for bringing to management's attention a defective and underperforming product. [06:08:42] <Error_404> come out of the closet to a homophobic boss ? [06:09:03] <steleman> and the blog is prima facie evidence [06:09:14] <steleman> cannot touch. [06:09:37] <jamesd> of course there are a dozen other blog entries that show the u20 beating the crap out of the competition... [06:09:53] <steleman> this person has screenshots [06:10:34] * lloy0076 ponder [06:11:01] <Error_404> well I assume there are internal channels for bringing this information up the chain that don't involve badmouthing what a piece of crap solaris is compared to the competitor's product on a public-facing forum [06:11:27] <lloy0076> I'd be inclined to say that getting such an out of whack result means there's something wrong with the person's benchmark. [06:11:32] <Error_404> If i work at a printing shop, i can't stand outside yelling "hey, just use a xerox people... it's way easier & cheaper" [06:11:46] <LeftWing> lol [06:11:49] <Error_404> i'd get fired on the spot and rightly so [06:11:58] <jamesd> lloy0076, most likely the benchmark is single threaded and fits basicly all in ram.. [06:11:59] <lloy0076> Error_404: You might get hired by Xerox :P [06:12:01] <Error_404> and i'm even generally pro-worker anti-business [06:12:50] <steleman> i'm not taking any sides in here as to whether or not this person should or should not be fired. i'm just suggesting that this person, at this point, cannot be fired.

[06:15:52] <LeftWing> Wow, that guy is whiney. [06:16:04] <jamesd> lloy0076, its possible... the intel may be faster, if it doesn't have to access disk and ram at the same time. [06:16:47] <_syphilis_> hmm, even if that person has a valid point, the way he presents it makes me not care [06:16:56] <jamesd> lloy0076, the intel uses a shared fsb that is for memory, disk, io access and only supports about 3-4GB a second, so if the cpu needs more than 4GB/s of io the cpu will spin and do nothing. [06:17:09] <lloy0076> I see. [06:17:51] <LeftWing> Do Sun employees even get shipped the same associated kits as end users when they are provided an Ultra 20? [06:18:04] <jamesd> amd chips have a memory bus that is a direct link to the ram, and hypertransport links to the io, each support upto 8GB/s [06:18:59] <jamesd> LeftWing, guess not.. my u20 shipment was like a warehouse exploded in my living room and included about 4 dvd/cd's of software including solaris [06:19:08] <LeftWing> Heh, exactly. [06:19:09] <lloy0076> All I know is that my AMD X2 3800+ at home with 2Gib of RAM is subtly faster than my Pentium D945 with 2Gib of RAM at work. [06:19:20] <LeftWing> You can't really complain about the out-of-box experience unless you actually experience it. ;P [06:19:26] <jteo> the fact is the core march is better than current Opterons.

[14:08:37] <pjd_> jteo: That's right, on first lookup. [14:09:02] <jamesd> i haven't checked in months, but when i last did you may of needed to do ls -R .zfs/snapdir to see all the files in the directories, some nfs clients wouldn't see all directories without being told to look for them. [14:09:21] <jteo> pjd_: which is why I presumed that the snapshots wouldn't show up under NFS. [14:09:40] <pjd_> I mounted ZFS file system over NFS on FreeBSD. [14:09:51] <pjd_> ls /mnt/test/.zfs/snapshot/ shows nothing. [14:09:59] <pjd_> But /mnt/test/.zfs/snapshot/<name> works. [14:10:24] <jteo> pjd_: so you can't see it, but you can access it? [14:10:29] <jamesd> pjd_, do cd /mnt/test/.zfs ; ls -R . and see if files show up then [14:10:30] <pjd_> Doing the same on Solaris for local file system works in both cases. [14:10:49] <pjd_> jamesd: No. [14:11:09] <pjd_> jteo: That's right. [14:11:23] <pjd_> Does it work the same when NFS client is Solaris?

[18:53:36] <edwardocallaghan> :/ [18:53:46] <edwardocallaghan> Sorry [18:58:39] <quants> edwardocallaghan: my buddy does that too [18:59:20] <Kmays> Ultra20/Apple blog was skewed a bit. [18:59:51] <jteo> Kmays: that's an understatement. [19:00:06] <Kmays> ;) [19:00:53] *** kFuQ has quit IRC [19:01:24] <edwardocallaghan> a build, what build [19:01:29] <edwardocallaghan> I posted a replie [19:01:34] <edwardocallaghan> *reply [19:01:51] <delewis> huh? what on earth was he building? [19:02:08] <Kmays> Sun engineers usually have the ferrari laptops... I like the Alienware Aurora m9700 myself. [19:02:11] <delewis> and if so, if all he is doing is comparing compile times, then I doubt he ensured what optimizations were being used and if they were identical on both systems. [19:02:18] <cmihai> DeLL bought Alienware :P [19:02:24] * delewis can't believe this guy actually got a job at Sun. [19:02:49] <cmihai> Yup. [19:03:09] <cmihai> Did you see his other posts? [19:03:16] <delewis> he also didn't post what compilers he was using [19:03:17] <Kmays> That bit about the clock speed command was interesting :D [19:03:22] <delewis> and I'd guarantee they were different versions [19:03:27] <delewis> oh, wait -- of course, they were. [19:03:34] <delewis> Apple uses a modified gcc as does Sun [19:03:38] <delewis> so his benchmark is 100% useless. [19:03:49] <cmihai> Apples, Oranges.. [19:03:52] <delewis> this is why compile-time benchmarks are silly. [19:03:53] <cmihai> Erm, Suns :P [19:04:02] <delewis> it's almost impossible to guarantee the benchmark is impartial. [19:04:18] <delewis> especially, if you're doing it across different operating systems. [19:04:51] <edwardocallaghan> lol he should install Fedora on both systems then do a compare as it's the same OS and the same version of all the packages [19:05:06] <delewis> edwardocallaghan: uh, no? [19:06:02] <jteo> it won't be the first time Sun has hired someone ...lacking. [19:06:22] <delewis> I guess he's in one of the "Java-oriented" departments :-) [19:06:28] <cmihai> Looks like it. [19:07:11] <edwardocallaghan> May be he is marketing hehe [19:07:20] <cmihai> Still, most people have more common sense that than... [19:07:39] <jteo> cmihai: common sense isn't. [19:07:53] <cmihai> Calling Solaris useless, Sun expensive and advertising Apples on a Sun blog is just dumb. [19:07:54] <edwardocallaghan> Well I said Fedora as I know it would run on both systems [19:07:57] <Auralis> complaining about unix when working for a unix vendor ist just plain... moronic [19:08:20] * delewis forsees this twit getting a pink slip. [19:08:28] <edwardocallaghan> OSX is Unix haha [19:08:52] <delewis> edwardocallaghan: and about 10 years behind on the technological scale of things. [19:08:57] <richlowe> I actually somewhat like that blog entry. [19:09:00] <cmihai> "Oh, and did I mention that it fried its boot disk within 1 minute of setting it up," - this guy doesn't just suck, he excells at it ;\ [19:09:13] <cmihai> edwardocallaghan: no it's not [19:09:42] <richlowe> it's good in much the same way that the UHH is one of the better unix textbooks in existance. [19:09:46] <edwardocallaghan> Yes it is, Darwin Unix [19:09:49] <richlowe> nobody needs to be told what they did right, they know already. [19:09:55] <delewis> cmihai: actually, it sort of is. OS X derives from NeXTSTEP, which was based on BSD sources (I can't seem to recall the version of it at the moment) [19:09:57] <richlowe> it's what you did wrong that needs to be hammered home until its believed. [19:10:00] <Kmays> rich <- he had a point about the hardware side of things..but not apples to apples though...and that clock speed command comment was...\ [19:10:15] <jteo> Kmays: java guy. not so hot on the CLI. [19:10:25] <Kmays> oh [19:10:46] <cmihai> delewis: it uses a Mach kernel, some BSD userland and stuff, but it's no more UNIX that FreeBSD would be. [19:10:53] <cmihai> It's UNIX-Like. [19:10:58] <delewis> cmihai: no, FreeBSD is a Unix. [19:11:02] <jteo> semantic, see-mantics [19:11:06] <delewis> it dervies from the original BSD4.4 Lite sources. [19:11:09] <richlowe> and having never actually looked for one before, I don't currently see a GUI-like "About this system" thingy, either. [19:11:10] *** sahafeez has quit IRC [19:11:11] <cmihai> delewis: they didn't pay the fee so it's not UNIX [19:11:11] <Auralis> it is not opengroup unix certified, ergo it is not UNIX. QED [19:11:19] <delewis> therefore, it has a direct lineage to the original Bell Labs sources. [19:11:20] <edwardocallaghan> cat /dev/random >> /dev/null & [19:11:23] <delewis> cmihai: I'm not talking about that. [19:11:28] <delewis> that's paying for a silly trademark. [19:11:37] <delewis> it's a Unix if can trace it back to the original Bell Labs sources, and in this case you can. [19:11:52] <delewis> saying it's not a Unix unless it has a the UNIX trademark stamped on is inconsistent. [19:12:16] <Auralis> no, you only get the stamp after passing the testsuit [19:12:19] <cmihai> delewis: well, the trademark thing comes with a bunch of validation tests [19:12:29] <delewis> Auralis: and for operating systems that haven't been tested? [19:12:32] <cmihai> And FreeBSD and MacOS didn't pass them. So they're not certified. [19:12:34] <delewis> You'd say 4.4BSD is a Unix, wouldn't you? [19:12:37] <quants> Kmays: Alienware has done some stuff that boarders on criminal, I have not seen if they're still that bad after Dell aquired them [19:12:40] * delewis sighs [19:12:52] <delewis> see, inconsistent. [19:13:00] <quants> Kmays: google: alienware+fraud [19:13:02] <delewis> you'd say Bell Labs Unix is Unix would you not? [19:13:03] <cmihai> They're not legally allowed to call themselves UNIX. [19:13:26] <Auralis> delewis: it is very simple, UNIX is a trademark and a certification level, if you don't pass the validation tt suits you are UNIX-like but not a UNIX [19:13:37] <quants> bsd is genetic Unix [19:13:49] <delewis> Auralis: I know what the certifications are, and that's irrelevant. [19:14:10] <quants> it heralds back to sys4 [19:14:12] <delewis> the most consistent definition of a Unix is one that derives from the original Bell Labs source. This definition is consistent with all of the Unix-derived operating systems, including SVR, BSD, etc. [19:14:23] <Auralis> obviously it is not, since apple changed their adverstimen material from UNIX to Unix based [19:14:34] <delewis> if you want to use it's not a Unix unless it has UNIX stamped on it, that's perfectly fine with me. [19:14:41] <delewis> I could care less, but your definition *is* inconsistent with history. [19:15:05] <cmihai> Yes, you could say UNIX has 3 major branches. System V, BSD and OSF/1. [19:15:15] <edwardocallaghan> UNIX wars on the 1980s here [19:15:18] <Auralis> history is irrelevant, UNIX its a by law protected trademark and a vaildation suite protected standard [19:15:26] <delewis> cmihai: and only a very small percentage of actually lasted to apply for UNIX certification. [19:15:54] <kimc> trying to debug an smf problem.. [19:16:06] <jteo> kimc: do share. [19:16:08] <kimc> getting: svc.startd could not set context for method: chdir: Not a directory [19:16:50] <delewis> Auralis: I've got a book laying on my desk at the moment that has "The Design and Implemention of the UNIX Operating System" which was written around System V. Keep it in mind, the book was written by one of the AT&T System V developers, and this text would've been written *before* the Open Group even existed with UNIX certification tests. [19:16:56] <cmihai> delewis: I'd totally agree with you there saying BSD's are UNIX decendents from BSD compared to Linux - that's just UNIX like. [19:16:57] <delewis> your definition is inconsistent, and that's all there is to it [19:17:02] <quants> Auralis: unix-like only applies to the non-genetic unix clones like Linux [19:17:05] <kimc> so if i say: svc-mysql start it starts [19:17:06] <delewis> arguing trademark legality has little relevance. [19:17:40] <edwardocallaghan> OK going for something to eat [19:18:02] <edwardocallaghan> Take care lads [19:18:04] <cmihai> But arguing is useless when laws exists. If they try to call themselves UNIX, the Open Group will sue them. End of story. [19:18:22] *** tsoome has quit IRC [19:18:22] <cmihai> Open Group isn't too keen on "UNIX like" either. [19:18:25] <delewis> cmihai: the thing is, UNIX existed *before* the Open Group. [19:18:32] <quants> more accuratly darwin is mach [19:18:33] <Auralis> the UNIX rights went from AT&T over several holders to the opengroup [19:18:38] <delewis> AT&T and Bell Labs both labeled there distributions as "UNIX" [19:19:09] <edwardocallaghan> lol bye, take care [19:19:21] *** edwardocallaghan has left #opensolaris [19:19:43] <quants> trademark, and genetic unix are two different considerations [19:19:49] <delewis> generally, I reserve "Unix" for those operating systems that derive from the original Bell Labs sources and UNIX for operating systems that haven't been certified by the Open Group. [19:20:27] <cmihai> *nix and UNIX -like are more popular I'd say. [19:20:29] <Auralis> s/haven't/have [19:20:33] <delewis> that's about as consistent as you can get, though that definition still has its problems, as have already been stated. [19:20:38] <delewis> Auralis: right. [19:21:01] <delewis> cmihai: popular, doesn't mean it's right. and *nix seems to be one of those Linuxisms for people that don't have a clue about Unix/UNIX history. [19:21:01] *** tsoome has joined #opensolaris [19:21:24] <delewis> they just toss-it-up and say it's *somehow* related to Unix, but don't why and usually don't care, hence the lazy labeling. [19:21:31] <cmihai> heh [19:21:50] <quants> work-alike [19:22:25] <delewis> I guess I could start appending a trademark character after "UNIX" to make the distinction even more. [19:22:57] <quants> delewis: talking about UNIX(r) is meaningless [19:23:59] <quants> I think it would be hysterical if s non-genetic unix-like system got UNIX cert [19:24:12] <cmihai> Names don't mean jack shit, but validation suites do. [19:24:23] <cmihai> quants: you mean like Linux? [19:24:33] <quants> minix is another [19:24:34] <cmihai> Or Minix? Or QNX for that matter? Heh, that would be fun. [19:24:35] <delewis> quants: most of the operating systems that derived, specifically from the BSD sources, like FreeBSD couldn't pass a verification suite, nowadays, as most of them use a GNU userland. [19:24:59] <quants> lol [19:25:06] <richlowe> ... no they don't. [19:25:18] <richlowe> much of the BSDs userlands are only *very* mildly GNU. [19:25:26] <quants> richlowe: no no, let him believe [19:25:35] <delewis> richlowe: FreeBSD does use a GNU sed, grep, etc. [19:25:36] <richlowe> openbsd stands out there, especially. [19:25:45] <cmihai> Couple of gcc's and seds here and there, but they're replaceing everything [19:25:54] <delewis> NetBSD was trying to replace the userland with their own, but I don't know how that's progressing [19:25:55] <quants> after all he was speeching about lazy assumptions [19:26:04] <delewis> last time I checked, /bin/sh was broken :-) [19:26:09] <delewis> quants: beg your pardon? [19:26:10] <cmihai> Yup, OpenBSD is trying to get rid of all the GNU... kind of hard trying to replace gcc with kencc though :P [19:26:32] <kAv_> has anyone tried to mount a freedos img disk [19:26:35] <jteo> thank goodness for revinventing the wheel [19:26:36] <delewis> cmihai: for a short time, OpenBSD was really wanting to get off of gcc, and the Plan 9 compiler suite was under consideration [19:26:39] <delewis> but that was several years ago. [19:26:51] <cmihai> Yup. [19:26:58] *** Volkodav has joined #opensolaris [19:27:03] <cmihai> It's sort of a running joke around OpenBSD circles... [19:27:06] <cmihai> kencc && the likes :) [19:27:19] <delewis> I think the fact that Plan 9 Release 4 was re-licensed with a non-BSD license prompted the decision not to go with it. [19:27:40] <Theoden-Nexenta> Hey - it's the vodka man [19:28:09] <Volkodav> not that early anyway [19:28:13] <Volkodav> what's up! [19:28:32] <Theoden-Nexenta> nada. U?
