[06:45:19] <_mary_kate_> no [06:45:25] <freetown> there you go [06:45:25] <jbk> because on any new install, they had about 20 pieces of mandatory 3rd party software that had to be loaded [06:45:37] <jbk> and the versions were old enough they didn't 'support' solaris 10 [06:45:38] <_mary_kate_> freetown: no, we're discussing reasons people would move to solaris 11 [06:45:39] <freetown> and when it became free to download, you had to go through hoops [06:45:49] <_mary_kate_> freetown: you can already get studio for free on solaris 10 (easily), so that's not a reason to upgrade to 11 [06:46:07] <freetown> oh...for current solaris chums to move to 11. ah. [06:46:22] <freetown> so long as you get new recruits...who cares? [06:46:33] <freetown> they can sit on their soalris 10 + patch system [06:46:41] <jbk> well depends if they're paying sun any money or not :) [06:47:03] *** freakazoid0223 has quit IRC [06:47:29] <_mary_kate_> for me, IPS is a reason _not_ to move to 11 right away - i'll probably wait and see how it works in the real world before upgrading [06:47:40] <_mary_kate_> (but if it works well, that would be nice) [06:47:46] <freetown> jbk, i'm sure that if they are willin to pay whoever for their support on whatever linux distro they use, they'd do the same for solaris11 [06:47:59] <jbk> if they're paying for linux support now... [06:48:39] <freetown> _mary_kate_, well, for all the current deficiencies of ips...i think it won't be bad at all [06:49:03] <moazamraja> i'd love a system which didn't so damn long to install or patch [06:49:12] <moazamraja> mainly patch..but the installation is embarassing too [06:49:14] <jbk> one thing that will be interesting (for sun) is if you look at the linux world, most of the linux experts aren't at redhat, ibm, etc. they're rather spread out [06:49:27] <freetown> i have got burnt by using ips to install xchat while in a 86 be....but i could use pkg to salvage it by updating it to the latest :P [06:49:31] <jbk> thus i think more people are used to scouring the internet or liunx 'support' [06:49:42] <freetown> certainly not acceptabel in an enterprise env of course [06:49:45] <moazamraja> jbk: people are yes, but not companies [06:49:51] <_mary_kate_> moazamraja: patching is mostly okay with LU, but it's still far too slow with zones..

Pfft, nah, don't do that. Use Oracle Enterprise Linux...or RedHat, anything but Solaris x86" [06:53:40] <freetown> Oracle Enterprise Linux...hah! that is just a rebranded centos distro [06:53:45] <moazamraja> with support [06:53:46] <moazamraja> from oracle [06:53:53] <moazamraja> who we know isn't dying anytime soon [06:53:58] <moazamraja> and whose DB most folks run [06:54:02] <freetown> in other words...rhel with oracle support.

[07:02:34] <moazamraja> oh [07:02:48] <jbk> internally to zfs you have 'objects' and 'object sets' (iirc) [07:02:54] <jbk> a file is one kind of object [07:02:58] <jbk> a directory is another kind [07:03:04] <jbk> as is a few other internal things [07:03:23] <jbk> a posix filesystem is one sort of object set (consisting of 'files' and 'directories') [07:03:39] <jbk> why not have 'tables' and 'indexes' conatined in a 'database' [07:03:42] <freetown> i guess interbase and firebird are history?

[07:04:32] <jbk> kinda related to that [07:05:08] <jbk> if you use java, basically compile the queries to a java class that's then dynamically run (jre includes libraries that can do the compile + run bit) [07:05:17] <jbk> with appropriate sql caching [07:05:43] <jbk> you can utilize any jvm optimization + JIT bits without any extra work (or code) [07:06:03] <jbk> so you can essentially compile a sql query into native machine language [07:06:22] <jbk> it would be an interesting research project [07:08:21] <moazamraja> meanwhile, oracle is working on their own FS [07:08:27] <moazamraja> and their own NFS client stack [07:08:30] <jbk> and nfs client [07:08:33] <jbk> and cluster software [07:08:36] <moazamraja> yuhp [07:08:42] <moazamraja> "Vee vill owwwwn you!"

[07:10:02] <jbk> right now you're hearing a lot about linux [07:10:11] <moazamraja> CIOs are scared of depending on Sun [07:10:23] <moazamraja> IBM, Oracle, HP, they all know this [07:10:32] *** juriskr has joined #opensolaris [07:10:44] <jbk> but then i also hear people that do the whole solaris->linux thing and then cringe at the problems [07:11:11] <jbk> hell finding a stable redhat config that will run on hp proliants is a bit of work [07:11:13] <moazamraja> from a tech perspective, solaris > linux [07:11:24] <moazamraja> from a business outlook, Sun is scary as hell [07:11:33] <freetown> jbk, but you don't hear a lot of linux->|back tosolaris [07:11:50] <jbk> yeah because sun sucks about advertising them [07:11:55] <moazamraja> no CEO, useless board, lack of direction, lack of focus, no real roadmap [07:12:14] *** ShadowHntr has joined #opensolaris [07:12:22] <jbk> a lot fo the 'linux->solaris' stuff you hear is 'we have these 10 year old sun boxes, so we bought new hardware and it's a lot faster and cheaper' [07:12:23] <freetown> sun engineers ougth to take over the sales and marketing depts [07:12:34] <freetown> jbk, heh [07:12:35] <jbk> and would be the same if its old solaris->new solaris or old solaris->linux [07:13:05] <jbk> but of course it's ment to imply linux > solaris when it' really just saying 'moore's law is still working' [07:13:25] <moazamraja> at least as of roughly 2003/2004, Sun did not have a *single* software sales person [07:13:32] <jbk> yeah, their sales is a big problem.. they need to do something about that.. [07:13:34] <moazamraja> just hardware ppl who dont know jack about software [07:13:52] <moazamraja> "Well, it's got 12 CPUs and 4GB RAM! What more do u want!?" [07:14:06] <moazamraja> they need a new CEO :/ [07:14:11] <moazamraja> a new exec. staff [07:14:11] <jbk> i almost took a pre-sales engineer position, just because i know the software and hardware, can speak in $ and tech terms and all of that [07:14:25] <jbk> i think more they need to revamp some of the middle management [07:14:28] <freetown> moazamraja, hah! you cannot beat sun sales for laziness too! [07:14:33] <moazamraja> freetown: amen [07:14:37] <jbk> hell [07:14:42] <jbk> i'd almost be tempted to go to them [07:14:44] <moazamraja> middle mgmt is driven by the total LACK of leadership from Upper Mgmt [07:14:51] <mui> my company was long against solaris reincarnation but zfs did it afterall [07:15:18] <jbk> 'let me go around to whatever business doesn't have an existing sun rep, don't limit me to a certain company size' [07:15:27] <mui> magic words such as iscsi, snapshots and stuff [07:15:39] <jbk> i think there's a huge untapped market for them in the smaller business market [07:15:44] <freetown> mui, also available on freebsd... [07:15:51] <mui> imo sun's hw pricing sucks ass heavily [07:15:52] <jbk> but it's more work from a sales perspective [07:16:02] <mui> yeah but business wise solaris > freebsd in every occasion [07:16:09] <mui> enterprise is always enterprise [07:16:24] <jbk> the storage stuff could be a huge success if they play it right (that's a big if though) [07:16:28] <jbk> especially now [07:16:33] <freetown> strange world, enterprise [07:16:48] <moazamraja> Sun pricing is actually low [07:16:50] <jbk> companies are now really concerned about saving money [07:16:55] <moazamraja> relative to IBM, etc. [07:17:19] <jbk> 'hey we have a box that will meet all your storage needs, and it's 1/3 the cost of EMC or netapp (or lower)' [07:17:19] <moazamraja> with discounts, Sun is hard to beat on price [07:17:45] <moazamraja> jbk: problem is, netapp is an appliance, very easy to manage, very easy to extend & cluster [07:17:53] <moazamraja> I don't believe Sun has a story in that space [07:17:54] <jbk> and just as easy (if not moreso) to manage (I'm assuming fishworks will actually do this) [07:17:56] <mui> after discounts suns hw is okay [07:18:14] <moazamraja> Solaris+ZFS doesn't do it without the management interface (CLI, whatever, something 100% funcional) [07:18:19] <moazamraja> functional...even [07:18:43] <mui> but if average joe goes thru their websites and clicks fancy pictures all they get is "starting from 75000USD" [07:18:45] <moazamraja> fishworks. heh. i heard about that almost 1+ year ago. nothing yet it seems [07:18:51] <jbk> it's not too bad now.. there are some goofy things w/ netapp, and the licensing for every individual feature is annoying [07:19:01] <mui> err [07:19:07] <mui> there is nice management interface for zfs [07:19:07] <jbk> well i'm hoping it will emerge soon [07:19:15] <mui> but afterall, zfs is very easy to use [07:19:19] <jbk> there's been small offhand tidbits of stuff [07:19:19] <mui> even thru cli [07:19:44] <moazamraja> mui: i mean managing it so that u can add another 24-48TB shelf and just have it extend your filesystem to that [07:19:52] <moazamraja> not just managing that single box [07:19:57] <mui> yea [07:20:26] <moazamraja> netapp has multiple head-units, multi-shelves, very easy and full functional CLI [07:20:57] <jbk> but is expensive [07:21:48] <moazamraja> not really [07:21:52] <moazamraja> i mean, it ain't cheap [07:21:57] <moazamraja> but it isn't that expensive either [07:22:01] <moazamraja> just like Sun, they give major discounts [07:22:07] <moazamraja> and their NFS stack kicks ass [07:22:08] <jbk> assuming sun can come out with a comparable interface (with the people working on fishworks, i really don't think that should be a problem) [07:22:21] <moazamraja> jbk: again, Suns problem is not really technical. [07:22:28] <jbk> but then some of the tidbits i've heard mentioned (all public) [07:22:29] <jbk> heh yeah [07:22:38] *** luna1 has quit IRC [07:22:42] <moazamraja> jbk: companies don't want to spend millions on products from a company who they dont think will be around very soon [07:22:59] <jbk> i've wondered what would happen if they created a separate sales & marketing (preferably with non-sun people) for just such storage products or other things [07:23:09] <moazamraja> jbk: and Sun mgmt has proven itself to be negligent, incompetent, if not corrupt [07:23:34] *** ShadowHntr has quit IRC [07:24:56] <jbk> they still have a decent amount of money in the bank and still are selling stuff (granted, part of the problem was being too concentrated in large companies in specific industries, and they don't seem to be fixing that), so it's death isn't a sure thing... [07:25:01] <jbk> remember [07:25:06] <jbk> in the 90s [07:25:11] <jbk> ibm was doing _terrible_ [07:25:13] <jbk> and they turned around [07:26:21] <jbk> i do think though they need to really revamp their sales stragety [07:26:23] <moazamraja> they have 3 billion in cash [07:26:28] <moazamraja> but [07:26:33] <moazamraja> they also have 35k+ employees [07:26:43] <jbk> and go after smaller busineses and try to break into more markets.. [07:26:45] <moazamraja> they need to get to about half of that [07:26:53] <e^ipi> and a 3.38bn market cap [07:27:09] <e^ipi> heh, sun's assets are worthless [07:27:26] <e^ipi> the people, the land... [07:27:32] <moazamraja> years ago I remember McNealy telling us how we had 7-8Billion in cash [07:27:33] <jbk> stock markets are funny like that [07:27:36] <moazamraja> then it was 5-6... [07:27:37] <moazamraja> then 4-5... [07:27:43] <moazamraja> then they stopped saying stuff about the cash [07:28:15] <moazamraja> e^ipi: if Sun tried to sell the Menlo Park and Santa Clara campuses, it would actually be quite difficult right now [07:28:31] <moazamraja> and from what I've heard, they have tried to sell MPK for a while [07:28:48] <jbk> and it doesn't sound like google would be buying :) [07:28:58] * jbk is still waiting for their stock to crater [07:29:07] <moazamraja> it did already. [07:29:10] <moazamraja> 700-->300s [07:29:24] <moazamraja> Sun ---> $1.10 [07:29:29] <moazamraja> (pre reverse split adjusted) [07:29:33] <jbk> but how much of that was just being pulled down by the general downturn in the stock market? [07:29:47] <moazamraja> jbk: nah, they cratered from 700 a *while* ago [07:29:54] <moazamraja> and last I checked, google was still profitable [07:29:56] <freetown> well they would need to seriously change their sales staff. i tried to get some sun support for a pbx solution and they commented about how their heads were complaining that all they ever do was banks and in the end we got left out [07:30:02] <moazamraja> i.e., making cash money every quarter [07:30:03] <jbk> but i wonder how long that will last [07:30:11] <moazamraja> longer than Sun [07:30:22] <jbk> they seem to really being starting to cutback on perks [07:30:23] <moazamraja> easier to last with profits every quarter than without [07:30:30] <jbk> and talking to people who put their ads on websites [07:30:33] <moazamraja> jbk: smart of them [07:30:44] <jbk> even before they did the 'few, but higher quality clicks' thing [07:30:47] <moazamraja> a businesses objective is to make money [07:30:54] <jbk> that with similar levels of traffic [07:30:58] <moazamraja> a business who loses that goal, suffers [07:31:06] <jbk> people were getting less and less money [07:31:17] <jbk> and since the whole thing is so opaque [07:31:33] <jbk> it'd be really easy to just squeeze those websites to keep their profits up [07:31:35] <moazamraja> google will do fine [07:31:45] <jbk> but you can only squeeze so far..

[07:42:51] <moazamraja> do u think Sun 'levered up' in the last 2-3 years? [07:42:59] <moazamraja> i mean..StorageTek...MySQL.... [07:43:05] <jbk> well how much debt do they have?

Ok.. it _might_ be a HW failure, but nothing seems to indicate that (no logs, no warnings, not happening running heavy graphics on windows).

[23:06:52] *** stukag has quit IRC [23:07:17] <desp> The gcc page on sunfreeware.com mentions having to install gcc packages from the Solaris CDs [23:07:37] <desp> But I don't see any gcc packages on my OpenSolaris CD [23:08:04] <alanc> desp: OpenSolaris LiveCD contains a lot less than Solaris CD's, since OpenSolaris has an online package repo to install from [23:08:19] <desp> That's fine. How can I access it? [23:08:28] <alanc> on OpenSolaris, run 'pfexec pkg install gcc-dev' to get gcc and all the associated development packages [23:08:41] <desp> Thanks. Where would I find this information? [23:08:55] <desp> I mean, is there some sort of common wiki/faq for this sort of questions? [23:09:05] <seanmcg> Asako, snapshots are cheap, I'm keeping a years worth.. [23:09:07] <alanc> in the installing opensolaris guide [23:09:32] <desp> Thanks. [23:09:46] <alanc> http://www.opensolaris.com/learn/ [23:10:47] <TheK> http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/IPS/instdevsoft.html [23:11:25] <alanc> yeah, I would have thought there, but that mentions Sun Studio, and I didn't see gcc there [23:13:42] <Asako> seanmcg, yeah they are [23:14:00] <TheK> alanc: The next question after gcc is installed is: How can I make sure I can run gdb without ending up cursing at ld [23:14:25] <geronimos> what's the latest snv ? [23:14:30] <geronimos> is it 99?? [23:14:40] <TheK> alanc: The default answer given is usually install SunStudio; never any problems. That might well be, but then there far less programs to compile. [23:14:51] <TheK> geronimos: yes. [23:15:02] <geronimos> TheK: thank you [23:15:04] * TheK is pkg image-updating now [23:15:17] <alanc> TheK: ah, well, since I never use gdb and hadn't heard that was a problem, I didn't know [23:15:39] <alanc> since I do use dbx for debugging, though I use both Studio cc & gcc for compiling [23:16:00] <TheK> Figuring out how to switch between Sunstudio and GNU toolchains is gold... [23:16:47] <TheK> I'm having huge issues. Some chose to work only with SunStudio some go nexenta style and only do GNU. Since I'm such a gredy unsatisfied person I need both to work :) [23:17:12] <TheK> But linking becomes a mess... and debugging with gdb.
