[00:00:51] <LaidBack_01> yeah, so zones don't come with sendmail installed by default, was just hoping there was something like ssmtp in linux for them, but I'll just work with sledmail
[00:02:02] <gavino> would it be better to use hardware raid for 2xraid5 and then raidz 6 remaining disks of same size in an array I can't use hardware raid on?
[00:02:11] <gavino> or let all disks go into raidz?
[00:02:40] <gavino> I have 2 arrays with hardware raid and one I cant get into the hardware riad menu has 6 disks
[00:02:44] <gavino> unraided

[00:11:59] <bdrewery> I'm playing with 2009.06 on live cd. 6 scsi bays. `format' shows 6 drives? zfs import hangs and comaplins that sd2 is unresponsive until I put a disk in... sounds like a raid card creating virtual raid0 devices but I have no raid card or onboard controller... any ideas?
[00:12:11] *** Netwolf has quit IRC
[00:12:32] <gavino> when you install does zfs grab every free disk?
[00:12:33] <bdrewery> this is with 1 drive in, if I put a drive in slot 2, it then complains about slot 3, all the way up to slot 6
[00:12:39] *** Mousk4r1 has joined #opensolaris
[00:12:44] <gavino> I think the other 36g disk might screw things up if i dont exclude it
[00:12:49] <gavino> i am installing onto the first one
[00:12:53] <gavino> ;)
[00:13:09] <gavino> or is zfs so good it doesnt evne care
[00:13:24] <gavino> it certainly caused freebsd gmirror gstripe some performance problems
[00:13:30] <gavino> the 36 g disks

[00:23:01] <akhs> hi..
[00:23:24] <akhs> I am in dillema, what problem I am facing..
[00:23:45] <akhs> I am trying to connect two servers Sun Netra ..
[00:24:04] <akhs> Connectivity of 10 gigs through fiber..
[00:24:09] *** disharmony has quit IRC
[00:24:26] <akhs> assigning both the server private IP but still not able to ping it up
[00:24:42] <akhs> nxge1 links showing up on both the servers..
[00:27:11] *** mikefut has quit IRC
[00:27:23] <akhs> Is there anything i am missing it up??
[00:28:43] *** moepmoep has quit IRC
[00:28:46] <gavino> p to p might need different setup, are both plugged into a hub or switch?
[00:28:54] *** hugo has quit IRC
[00:28:55] <gavino> otherwise there is some point to point setup
[00:29:43] <akhs> gavino, for remote connectivity both are connected to Switch.
[00:30:25] <akhs> both Sun netra servers are directly connected with 10g fiber..
[00:30:35] <gavino> oh that sounds like it should be working unless the switch has different vlans or something for the two ports..
[00:30:58] <gavino> fiber also gets into some zoning stuff i have not done..
[00:31:04] <gavino> if its SAN switch
[00:31:59] *** sndcrb has quit IRC
[00:32:05] <akhs> thing is that if they have direct connectivity and assigning them private IP than the logic says that I should ping it ..
[00:32:08] *** davenz has joined #opensolaris
[00:32:22] <akhs> it is something strange..
[00:33:07] *** moepmoep has joined #opensolaris
[00:33:32] *** andersenep has quit IRC
[00:33:34] <gavino> same mask and default route etc?
[00:33:36] <gavino> weird
[00:33:37] <gavino> hm
[00:33:42] *** Mdx4 has quit IRC
[00:33:55] <gavino> you can ping the switch?
[00:33:59] *** heldchen has joined #opensolaris
[00:34:06] <akhs> gavino, I dont think so to configure fibre it needs default route..
[00:34:21] <akhs> mask is same..
[00:34:55] *** GhostInTheShell has quit IRC
[00:35:06] <gavino> well I am over my head then, some of these guys will wake up, lots of brain in here

[00:52:02] <akhs> macousi, I will try it, Presently sys-unconfig is going on..
[00:52:08] <akhs> I will let you know.
[00:53:09] <macousi> can you reconfigure the nxge1 int?
[00:54:03] <akhs> macousi, its done..
[00:54:13] <akhs> yeah, now I am able it up!!!
[00:54:31] <macousi> you have 2 interfaces on the same network, so it's getting confused
[00:54:58] <akhs> thats a great help.
[00:55:23] <akhs> If I would have put IP of another series to nxge1..
[00:55:33] <[lewellyn]> sstallion_work: is it worth the work? will it likely give a driver worth looking at in lieu of dnet?
[00:56:15] <[lewellyn]> i'm not so interested in the other drivers so much right now, but they're probably all fairly simple once one's done, thanks to that vmbus.
[00:56:20] <akhs> than it would be the same scenario or should I able to ping it up??
[00:56:47] <sstallion_work> [lewellyn]: its doable. Linux network drivers are woefully inadequate when it comes to operating information
[00:57:08] <sstallion_work> [lewellyn]: Is there any more information you can provide thats not on the ISO?
[00:57:08] <[lewellyn]> sstallion_work: Not here.
[00:57:13] <macousi> akhs, ya. if you leave 10.1.1.0/24 for e1000g1 and assign a diff network, like 10.1.2.0/24 to nxge1 than you'll be golden
[00:57:37] <sstallion_work> [lewellyn]: link up/link down hardly qualifies as "enough" :D
[00:57:54] <akhs> macousi, great...thanks again!!
[00:58:25] <macousi> no problem
[01:00:02] *** niq has joined #opensolaris
[01:01:10] *** deet has joined #opensolaris
[01:01:15] <sstallion_work> [lewellyn]: if you can get gdamore or jmcp to buy off on sponsoring and you start up a project by emailing driver-discuss, I'll go for it
[01:01:27] *** doug_ndndn has quit IRC
[01:02:17] <sstallion_work> it will take a little while to get it done, and we'll definitely need a PSARC to get it integrated
[01:02:21] <sstallion_work> but I think its certainly doable
[01:02:37] *** Spencer_tt1 has joined #opensolaris
[01:03:05] <[lewellyn]> sstallion_work: unfortunately, i don't have any info that's not there. i'll poke around a bit and see what i can find elsewhere
[01:03:17] <[lewellyn]> as i said, i didn't even know about this opensource driver set till a few days ago
[01:03:48] *** dalibor has quit IRC
[01:03:49] <sstallion_work> [lewellyn]: the source is enough TBH
[01:03:50] <sstallion_work> I'll just do a direct port
[01:04:20] *** purserj has quit IRC
[01:04:21] <sstallion_work> the vmbus module will be first, followed by the pv network driver
[01:04:29] <sstallion_work> once thats done, thats enough for a putback
[01:04:35] *** purserj has joined #opensolaris
[01:04:36] <sstallion_work> after that, we can add in the other drivers
[01:04:56] <[lewellyn]> and potentially enough to find a monetary sponsor to complete the task :)
[01:05:48] <sstallion_work> getting the project start would be a good first step - that way we can keep a gate separate from the onnv gate for dev work.
[01:05:59] <sstallion_work> plus it gives the community trolls a chance to complain bitterly ;)
[01:06:01] <[lewellyn]> yeah
[01:06:12] <sstallion_work> though the driver community really doesn't have any trolls
[01:06:30] *** akhs has quit IRC
[01:06:39] <sstallion_work> are you subscribed to driver-discuss?
[01:06:46] <[lewellyn]> and it's hard to justify trying to avoid trying to get into microsoft shops, what with the cifs server and all
[01:06:49] <[lewellyn]> i should be
[01:06:58] * gdamore growls quietly from underneath his bridge.
[01:07:17] <[lewellyn]> SMP and fastboot would be awesome to have eventually, too
[01:07:26] *** Guest5223 has quit IRC
[01:07:31] <[lewellyn]> though i think smp already works (fsvo)
[01:07:41] * [lewellyn] tosses gdamore a goat
[01:08:06] <sstallion_work> [lewellyn]: send the usual project announcement to driver-discuss and see where it goes ;)
[01:08:14] <sstallion_work> I'll at least do the network driver - its pretty easy
[01:08:15] <gdamore> i thought you knew better than to "feed the troll"!
[01:08:40] <[lewellyn]> i have another couple of emails before i can do that. i want to see if i can create support outside the normal groups ;)
[01:08:56] * sstallion_work thinks gdamore should sponsor.
[01:09:05] * [lewellyn] too
[01:09:07] <sstallion_work> sacrificial troll?
[01:09:13] <gdamore> i can sponsor the case, if you write it.
[01:09:25] * sstallion_work points at lewellyn
[01:09:28] <sstallion_work> I'm just the labor here
[01:09:33] <gdamore> PSARC, I mean. I'm not going to sponsor the *integration*.
[01:09:35] <sstallion_work> *nod*
[01:09:36] <sstallion_work> haha
[01:09:44] <sstallion_work> not with a 10ft pole, eh?
[01:10:13] <gdamore> lets just say.... i'd like to avoid politics (for a change)
[01:10:40] <gdamore> besides which, I'd have to install a *cough* microsoft *spit* product to test it.
[01:11:28] <x58> what are you guys talking about? So far I got something about a network driver but that is about it.
[01:12:16] <[lewellyn]> x58: i'm bored of hyper-v's "Legacy Network Adapter" and microsoft has a bsd-licensed linux driver :)
[01:12:28] <x58> Ah, okay. Got it.
[01:13:21] <sstallion_work> gdamore: I'm hoping I can talk lewellyn into exposing one I can get to - my house is Microsoft-free (and it would be nice to keep it that way!)
[01:13:48] <sstallion_work> hrmm... we do have an XBox though
[01:13:51] <[lewellyn]> i'm hoping to be buying some new hardware soon anyhow. :)
[01:13:57] <[lewellyn]> xbox won't run windows server afaik ;)
[01:14:23] <gdamore> the wife has MS, unfortunately. and also I have a VBox MS because Oracle training materials required MS Internet Exploder.
[01:14:35] <sstallion_work> ouch
[01:14:50] *** Mdx4 has joined #opensolaris
[01:14:51] <sstallion_work> I managed to get my wife onto Mac OS a few years ago - works out pretty well for her.
[01:15:25] *** doug_ndndn has joined #opensolaris
[01:15:41] <x58> I have the Windows 2008 Hyper-V ISO downloaded somewhere, haven't had the chance to play with it yet.
[01:15:52] <[lewellyn]> i'm trying to get my gf to stop using boot camp in exchange for vbox, for most of the games she plays that require windows :P
[01:16:06] <[lewellyn]> some, though, vbox's 3d support isn't up to par for yet
[01:16:16] <[lewellyn]> x58: 2k8r2 is far nicer :)
[01:16:20] <[lewellyn]> (for hyper-v)
[01:17:09] <x58> [lewellyn]: I think i have the R2. It is whatever was linked in a theregister article a while back, since the EULA for it allows unlimited distribution, requires no serial number or activation.
[01:18:03] <[lewellyn]> a no-serial no-activation windows server? interesting.
[01:18:52] <gebi> that should be the base w2k8 server for hyper-v, w2k8r2 also has multimaster cluster fs and is definitly not free *g*
[01:18:53] <gavino> so how do I know what disks are what in dev?
[01:19:19] <gavino> I have I have a lot of disks
[01:19:47] *** Guest5223 has joined #opensolaris
[01:20:19] <x58> gebi: Oh, I don't doubt that.
[01:21:24] <lcheung> gavino: do a dd and watch the leds flash? :)
[01:21:27] <x58> I have access to most of the 2008 server stuff through MSDNAA anyway.
[01:22:30] <gavino> I have a really gnarley /dev/dsk
[01:22:50] <lcheung> good morning/evening all - depending where in the world you are.
[01:22:50] <gavino> like zillion entries
[01:23:19] * Meths notes the MS regsitration is a lot nicer and easier to avoid than VMware's for their free stuff
[01:23:27] <Meths> registration*
[01:24:08] <gavino> http://www.pastie.org/906620 look at this!!
[01:24:24] <gavino> I have 3 dell array attached to my box
[01:24:50] <gavino> none formatted
[01:25:23] <gavino> how do I clean things up?
[01:25:32] <gavino> and get all my disks under raidz?
[01:26:14] *** Animal-X has quit IRC
[01:26:32] <x58> gavino: Use format to list them all. Then add them to the raidz
[01:27:38] <lcheung> or do a "iostat -En"
[01:27:52] *** lcheung is now known as lesterc
[01:28:07] <gebi> and adding all disks to the same raidz isn't going to cut it ;)
[01:28:53] <lesterc> gavino: http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Best_Practices_Guide
[01:32:06] <gavino> hmm
[01:32:11] <gavino> I have liek 26 disks
[01:32:13] <gavino> ok
[01:32:40] <gebi> for 3 seperated arrays in raidz2 e.g a good idea to create raidz2 with 6 disks with 2 disks from each array
[01:34:15] <gebi> so no data is lost if a whole array goes down
[01:34:39] *** ingenthr has quit IRC
[01:35:55] <gavino> hmm
[01:36:02] <bball> hosw do I install an older SUNWspro onbld package
[01:36:24] <bball> with the newer ones you can just copy the onbld dir to /opt
[01:36:27] <bball> after you untar it
[01:36:45] <bball> but this older one I'm trying to build with seems to be in a pkg format
[01:36:48] <gavino> 32 bit 4 g ram 2x2.4xeon cpu
[01:37:02] <gavino> pkgadd -d blah probly
[01:37:23] <gavino> wow format shows 0-30 for disks
[01:38:18] <bball> ty
[01:40:47] <macousi> ls
[01:40:51] <macousi> oops
[01:46:11] <gebi> gavino: also, do not forget spare disks ;), (my 2 cents: for >20disks i've usually 2x160GB l2arc and 1x32GB zil)
[01:46:42] *** cybernd has quit IRC
[01:47:18] <gavino> ok
[01:47:28] <gavino> I do have my os on 1 36g
[01:47:37] <gavino> and I could use the other for ZIL
[01:48:00] <gavino> all rest of 31 are 140g 320 scsi
[01:48:13] <gebi> l2arc here is x25-m intel ssd, and zil x25-e intel ssd
[01:48:16] <gavino> I can see from format which are 2 smallies
[01:48:25] <gavino> I have only old hardware no ssd lol
[01:49:13] <gebi> using hd's for zil isn't really that great because ios is the only thing that counts and thats pain slow on hd's ;)
[01:49:14] <gavino> how can I see which disk s currently being used for my os? see the cztydx
[01:49:20] <gavino> oh ok
[01:49:50] <gavino> I should probably absorb the other 36g into my os disk
[01:49:53] <gavino> for like mirroring
[01:49:57] <gavino> or some kinda spare
[01:50:06] <gavino> then make the 29 140g drives into my NFS space
[01:50:07] <gavino> :)
[01:50:11] *** milek_ has quit IRC
[01:50:13] <gebi> jep good idea, rpool can be mirrord without problems

[01:50:34] <gavino> very new to zfs opensol here
[01:52:01] <Andys^> using HD's for zil is still better than using nothing
[01:52:15] <Meths> There are howtos for rpool mirroring: http://letsgetdugg.com/2009/10/18/zfs-boot-mirror-setup/ and http://malsserver.blogspot.com/2008/08/mirroring-resolved-correct-way.html were the ones I used.

[02:17:00] <Andys^> if its for Super critical stuff, 3 groups of 8 disk raidz2 or 2 groups of 12 disk raidz2
[02:17:36] <Andys^> if its for hosting things that need alot of IOPS (virtual machines, busy fileserver), use RAID10 across all 24 disks

[02:19:16] <Andys^> what are the disks?
[02:19:25] <gavino> scsi 320 140g
[02:19:27] <Andys^> ooh
[02:19:31] <Andys^> sounds old
[02:19:35] <gavino> ;)
[02:19:38] <gavino> yep ancient shit
[02:19:41] <gavino> I am repurposing
[02:19:43] <Andys^> ahh
[02:19:48] <gavino> trying to use best new tek
[02:19:50] <gavino> ;)
[02:19:50] <Andys^> i guess i'd probably go 3 groups of 8 disk raidz2 then
[02:20:16] <gavino> I could make hardware raid out of say 20 of the disks
[02:20:24] <gavino> the dells support riad 5 hardware raid
[02:20:29] <gavino> would that be better?
[02:20:33] <gavino> then use that with zfs?
[02:20:41] *** ubiquitous1980 has joined #opensolaris
[02:20:43] <gavino> the 3rd array hardware raid menu is broken
[02:20:55] <gavino> so about 8 disks are floting there and the two small 36g os disks in the head
[02:21:56] <gavino> zpool create rzpool raidz2 disk disk raidz2 disk disk
[02:22:01] <gavino> is the command format?
[02:22:08] <gavino> http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Configuration_Guide#ZFS_Configuration_Example_.28x4500_with_raidz2.29
[02:23:06] <Andys^> gavino: NOOOOOO, no hardware raid. :)
[02:23:06] *** ubiquitous1980 has quit IRC
[02:23:12] <gavino> ok
[02:23:19] <Andys^> and yes, thats the command format
[02:23:25] <Andys^> then run "zpool status -v" to see what it looks like
[02:23:39] <gavino> is it important to mix controllers?
[02:24:05] <gavino> I noticed the example shows liek as many controllers possible in the mix, but I have like 2..
[02:24:20] <bdrewery> (Newb) 2009.06 live cd isn't working with hot swap, other OS work fine, what the heck?
[02:24:35] <bdrewery> scsi controller lsi 53c1030
[02:25:12] <gavino> what about a spare?
[02:25:17] <gavino> should I allocate a spare?
[02:25:17] <Reedd> how do i get opensolaris to boot to a text console only?
[02:25:48] <Andys^> gavino: i suppose if you were using mirroring you'd want one controller per side of the mirror.. its not that important
[02:25:53] <Reedd> nm
[02:26:05] <gavino> how about spares?
[02:26:18] <gavino> 3x8 would give me one
[02:26:19] <Andys^> gavino: spare? its up to you... if a drive breaks, you might have a hard time finding a new ultra320 143gb.. so yes.. maybe spare is good idea :)
[02:26:30] <gavino> lol
[02:26:39] <gavino> raidz2 needs 2 spares?
[02:26:43] <gavino> or 2 per controller?
[02:26:50] <Andys^> no its up to you
[02:26:57] <Andys^> you can have any number of spares per zpool
[02:27:10] <gavino> is each of the 8 considered a zpool
[02:27:15] <gavino> or is the whole thing the zppol
[02:27:39] <Andys^> whole thing is a zpool, and each of the 8 is a "vdev"
[02:27:51] <Andys^> zpools contain vdev(s) contain device(s)
[02:27:52] <Reedd> nm
[02:28:37] <gavino> now if my os is on a pool called rpool, should this new pool be called something else?
[02:28:48] <gavino> I should not mix this stuff with the os disks right?
[02:28:52] <Andys^> yeah
[02:28:57] <Andys^> call it something else
[02:29:00] <Andys^> all the examples use "tank"

[04:37:54] <crazed> er.. any reason why opensolaris is reporting the wrong time so badly
[04:38:06] <crazed> Wednesday, April 7, 2010 02:41:23 AM EDT
[04:38:16] <crazed> even after running ntpdate againt pool.ntp.org
[04:38:16] <pizdec> :_)
[04:38:24] <Andys^> crazed: wrong timezone?
[04:38:36] <crazed> it says the timezone in the date command as EDT
[04:38:40] <crazed> which is correct
[04:38:41] <samc> crazed: I had weird issues with my timezone being applied twice
[04:38:57] <crazed> uhh
[04:39:01] <samc> I'm GMT+12, but the time being reported by date was GMT+24 (even though ntpdate thought the time was correct)
[04:39:02] <crazed> how did you fix that slash find out
[04:39:20] <samc> it was only happening with one particular build - 129 or 130 maybe
[04:39:33] <crazed> i'm on 134
[04:39:36] <samc> so I just dropped back to my previous BE then upgraded to 132 or something and it was fixed
[04:39:39] <samc> ahh yuck
[04:39:50] <samc> funnily enough, I think the gnome clock applet showed the right time
[04:40:05] <samc> but yeah, never managed to track down the cause unfortunately
[04:40:32] <alanc> what's your TZ set to?
[04:40:41] <alanc> it should be something like US/Pacific
[04:41:02] <alanc> if you set it to GMT+12 it will do GMT-12 because POSIX rules are backwards from common usage
[04:41:29] <samc> I *think* I had it set to Pacific/Auckland
[04:41:31] <samc> not certain though
[04:41:36] <crazed> echo $TZ
[04:41:37] <crazed> US/Eastern
[04:41:56] <alanc> then I have no idea why it's off

[04:53:13] <CodeWar> at this point its lack of information that is driving rumors and the *overreacting articles*. Frankly its ok for a release to be late or super late as long as there is open knowledge that here is a watchlist of bugs that is blocking release. Stop bothering me about release date see for yourself are all issues in the list done? No then we cant release .. see you later
[04:53:25] <cmecca> hrmm... if im trying to zero a disk to be reused for opensolaris... and dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/dsk/c8t0d0 returns 71gb.... and the disk is 750gb... lol what does that mean :p
[04:53:38] <cmecca> i did 2 others and they returned 750gb... but this disk keeps returning 71gb
[04:53:50] <Andys^> CodeWar: well said. if someone came out and said "Sorry, its gonna be 6 months late", that would still be better than radio silence

[05:01:24] <alanc> CodeWar: there are *two* lists of blocker bugs, one for each bug tacker

[05:01:40] <Garen> CodeWar: The last two posts in this thread are helpful: http://opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=126677&tstart=0
[05:01:40] <Gman> samc: ah, yes, guilty :)
[05:01:44] <alanc> the bugzilla one is public, the bugster one is not, since bugs.opensolaris.org doesn't show the right fields
[05:02:04] * Gman wants bugzilla to be *the* tracker
[05:02:13] <oninoshiko> richlowe: normally they are called "entomologists"
[05:02:14] * Gman thinks that's a lost cause
[05:03:10] <richlowe> and there's far more useful things that b.o.o could show than the bloody blocker status of anything.
[05:03:21] * Garen likes the informative state names/descriptions in b.o.o.
[05:03:45] <Andys^> that sounds like a nasty bug
[05:04:07] <CodeWar> so bottomline Mark Maybee the gentleman is holding up 2010.03 release... lets hope hes on vacation now
[05:04:45] <Gman> assuming there aren't non-public blocking bugs in the internal bug tracker, yes
[05:09:09] <alanc> which would be a false assumption
[05:09:17] *** doug_ndndn has joined #opensolaris
[05:10:00] <alanc> since security bugs are non-public by definition, like the one I filed over the weekend to bump firefox from 3.5.8 to 3.5.9 for the latest security fixes as long as we're not yet shipped and nominated for the blocker list
[05:10:16] <alanc> (which doesn't guarantee it will be accepted as a blocker)
[05:11:04] <CodeWar> how does the governing body work.. is there a program manager ( or release manager) who decides on what spot fixes to take into the release branch and whether a bug is blocking or not?
[05:11:18] <Gman> yes, it's all comay's fault
[05:11:18] <Gman> :)
[05:11:43] <alanc> CodeWar: the OGB governing body is completely disconnected from the release process - they manage the community groups only
[05:12:24] <Gman> and barely that :)
[05:13:05] <alanc> comay works with the tech leads of each consolidation to review nominated stopper bugs to determine which fixes to take in

[05:20:29] <alanc> "The SPARC graphics team used my code, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt" ?
[05:20:31] <[lewellyn]> sstallion: hahahah
[05:20:42] <sstallion> alanc: or maybe a t-shirt of a coffee mug?
[05:20:55] <richlowe> pkg search -l '::path:/usr/X11/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType'
[05:20:56] <alanc> or "You too can work on SPARC graphics drivers, and be unemployed!"
[05:21:11] <sstallion> alanc: "SPARC? Do they still make those?"
[05:21:17] <[lewellyn]> sstallion: the guys i've emailed are very friendly and accessible and not linux-centric, so maybe i can get docs that aren't source code
[05:21:30] <Gman> given dedup isn't on by default, it's probably not really a blocker :)
[05:21:46] <[lewellyn]> path dir usr/X11/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType pkg:/SUNWttf-arphic-uming at 0 dot 5.11-0.129
[05:21:55] <[lewellyn]> and a few other SUNEttf-* packages
[05:21:57] <sstallion> [lewellyn]: that would be good - the source is pretty well all we need. It won't be a rough port. One thing that concerns me is the source only maintains a GPL header - nothing mentions BSD
[05:21:59] <[lewellyn]> SUNW at that
[05:22:07] <alanc> hrm, didn't we move that for 129?
[05:22:10] <[lewellyn]> sstallion: i mentioned that ;)
[05:22:12] <alanc> too many builds ago
[05:22:54] <sstallion> It annoys me greatly when people think they can maintain a single copyright file and not annotate the source code.
[05:22:55] <[lewellyn]> sstallion: there *IS* a license file that says you can ignore the gpl headers, if you opt for BSD licensing, which i'd hope would be enough
[05:23:06] <[lewellyn]> i think the bsd licensing is new in this beta, btw
[05:23:12] <sstallion> [lewellyn]: meh. gray area IMHO.
[05:23:25] <richlowe> [lewellyn]: any of the returns 'link'?
[05:23:31] <[lewellyn]> richlowe: no
[05:23:40] <richlowe> Though I guess that's still directory-o-junk -> link-o-junk
[05:23:49] <sstallion> [lewellyn]: IANAL, but if we opt for BSD licensing, does that allow us to strip the GPL crap out?
[05:23:52] <[lewellyn]> all dir, all in SUNWttf-* and /system/font/truetype/ttf-fonts-core
[05:23:59] <sstallion> simply sub in the license text instead?
[05:24:01] <[lewellyn]> sstallion: that's what the license says
[05:24:03] <sstallion> that seems a reasonable alternative

[05:27:01] <[lewellyn]> yeah

[05:28:39] <sstallion> Fallen_Demon: from what?
[05:28:49] <[lewellyn]> 1/3 of the way through so far with no unexpected output and i rolled a 15. i'm heading home.
[05:28:50] <Fallen_Demon> Everything
[05:28:57] <[lewellyn]> back later! :D
[05:28:58] <Fallen_Demon> Solaris > Linux
[05:29:11] <sstallion> Fallen_Demon: sounds like you need to <
[05:29:29] <sstallion> [lewellyn]: brave man :P
[05:29:40] <Fallen_Demon> sstallion, need to what?
[05:29:47] <sstallion> Fallen_Demon: stop using Linux
[05:29:59] <Fallen_Demon> lol, can't right now
[05:30:18] <Fallen_Demon> I'm going to see if I can configure b134 with everything I need first
[05:30:45] <sstallion> Fallen_Demon: better off waiting for 2010.03 unless you are a developer
[05:30:54] <Fallen_Demon> :3
[05:32:17] <Fallen_Demon> I ran opensolaris natively on my desktop, it didn't have NTFS support, VLC or USB wireless support
[05:32:22] <Fallen_Demon> Hence it got moved to a VM
[05:32:49] <lattera> opensolaris has vlc through spec-files-extra
[05:33:01] <Triskelios> and ntfs, and wireless usb
[05:33:22] <Fallen_Demon> But now that I might not need to connect to the weird set up here at uni anymore with this computer, I'm going to see how it all pans out
[05:33:26] <Fallen_Demon> Yeah, I know
[05:33:36] <Fallen_Demon> Hence why I'm going to give it another chance now 8D
[05:34:04] <Fallen_Demon> Plus I bumped up the RAM in here
[05:34:05] <alanc> [lewellyn]: now that you mention it, perhaps the TrueType directory wasn't converted to a link until a later build after the l10n fonts got moved to /usr/share - I don't remember any more

[06:03:04] <Spencer_tt1> g'morning
[06:03:18] <system5> there was some bug with Nvidia network cards reported over a year ago
[06:03:23] <lblume> Naaah, I only came here to push them to fix my audiohd issues faster.
[06:03:33] <system5> like the driver doesn't recognize the alias for mcp67 ethernet from Nvidia I think
[06:03:40] <system5> all that happens is the aliases need to be updated
[06:03:57] *** amgarching has quit IRC
[06:04:00] <system5> I think it got handed off to some Sun engineers in CHina, and that was like throwing the bug in the trash, as nothing was ever heard about it again
[06:04:15] *** amgarching has joined #opensolaris
[06:05:03] <lblume> Well, I've found them very responsive so far. Really ready to help.
[06:05:30] <system5> it's bug 4803 at defect.opensolaris.org
[06:05:32] <system5> let me check on it
[06:05:38] <system5> I know it wasn't fixed in snv_!29
[06:05:41] <system5> errr snv_129
[06:05:55] <sstallion> system5: there are several engineers in the channel that work on that team.
[06:06:02] *** radsy has quit IRC
[06:06:12] <system5> yeah this bug:
[06:06:13] <system5> http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=4803
[06:06:55] <system5> why not just have the opensolaris operating system recognize the hardware and attach the correct driver instead of requiring the user to type in:
[06:06:58] <system5> update_drv -a -i '"pci10de,54c"' nge ifconfig -a plumb
[06:07:07] <system5> how is a noob user supposed to figure that out?
[06:07:36] <sstallion> system5: or you could read the documentation and simply issue: reboot -- -r
[06:07:39] <system5> that particular NIC shipset is used in literally tens of thousands of laptops
[06:07:53] <system5> what just typing in: reboot -- -r
[06:08:02] <system5> doesn't require you to do an update_drv -a -i ?
[06:08:16] <sstallion> system5: assuming this is a supported vendor/device ID, then yes.
[06:08:45] *** Jenkens has quit IRC
[06:08:56] <system5> well, it seems that the driver is supported, but someone behind the Snorcle firewall refuses to update OpenSolaris so that the driver attaches to the device
[06:09:02] <sstallion> system5: alternately, you can touch /reconfigure && reboot
[06:09:08] <lblume> system5: If an alias is not installed, it means it's untested. It might work, or not. Testing takes time, and is not always possible. So no, a noob user should not be able to do it too easily.
[06:09:26] <system5> ic
[06:09:37] <alanc> system5: oh, I thought they'd responded, but it looks like they only cc'ed astram and not you
[06:09:46] <system5> good enough
[06:09:49] <sstallion> system5: patches welcome. If this is simply a matter of adding support for the chipset, if you are willing to do a little legwork and provide test hardware, this could be fixed easily.
[06:09:49] <system5> let him deal with it
[06:09:52] <alanc> I guess your e-mail address was too confusing for them - oh well
[06:09:55] <system5> haha
[06:10:11] <system5> I'll just tell him to forward the response to me
[06:10:33] <system5> I think he's warming up to the support idea
[06:11:40] <system5> here we go, so who is Zhen W at the CHina office, look at this:
[06:11:42] <system5> http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6775313
[06:11:52] <system5> see the bug and the workaround are there, but it just gets completely ignored
[06:12:10] <system5> they send it to a "responsible engineer" in China and then nothing gets done on it for like 2 years
[06:12:41] <system5> does Zhen W still work at oracle? maybe he got RIF-ed and the bug fell through the cracks
[06:12:43] <sstallion> system5: I think you misunderstand the amount of work it takes to make your "trivial" change
[06:13:05] <alanc> there are far more bugs filed than can be fixed by the available number of engineers if you want full regression testing & quality assurance
[06:13:05] <system5> I thought nge already supports this chipset
[06:13:21] <sstallion> system5: hardware must be acquired, a NICDRV battery must be done, and the driver will likely need additional fixes to support the hardware. rinse. repeat.
[06:13:34] <system5> someone just needs to update the driver aliases, which seems trivial compared to fixing zfs dedupe bugs and xwindows bugs and the like
[06:13:48] <sstallion> system5: not quite.
[06:13:50] <richlowe> Nope
[06:14:02] <richlowe> if it was just adding a string to the driver action, don't you think it would have been done?
[06:14:22] <system5> I figured it was just adding a string, that's what the bug looks like
[06:14:25] <richlowe> or, for that matter, you could have done it and sent the patch.
[06:14:31] <system5> update_drv -a -i 'pci1458,e000' nge
[06:14:36] <system5> ok, here is my patch:
[06:14:37] <system5> update_drv -a -i 'pci1458,e000' nge
[06:14:41] <system5> patch submitted!
[06:15:06] * system5 falls out of chair laughing at his own bad jokes
[06:15:30] *** system5 was kicked by sstallion (be civil or begone.)
[06:15:39] <andersenep> yes!
[06:15:55] <lblume> Hmmm, there is no man page for nge in b133? Is that a bug?
[06:15:57] <Andys^> heheh
[06:16:11] <jmcp> there isn't one for it in 135 either
[06:16:25] <sstallion> jmcp: welcome back ;)
[06:16:30] <jmcp> hi
[06:16:32] <lblume> But the driver is there, and I have the man in S10.

[06:16:50] <jmcp> sstallion: oh, I was
[06:16:54] <jmcp> it ended yesterday
[06:16:59] <sstallion> ah
[06:17:05] <jmcp> lblume: we don't need no steenkin' manpages in nv ?
[06:17:38] <lblume> Oh, yeah, I forget the new mantra: "use the Source, Luke!" :-D
[06:19:05] <Andys^> heh, WD just updated the VelicoRaptor line with a 600gb 10krpm. still no SAS version
[06:19:47] *** system5 has joined #opensolaris
[06:23:54] <system5> so the bug is more than just a missing driver alias? i.e. will there be problems with my system now that I'm using the nge driver for MCP67?
[06:24:17] <system5> becuase the bug report itself just seemed to reply that the problem was that the driver supported the chipset but that the alias wasn't there
[06:25:18] <lblume> HW vendors are trying to cut costs, and in many cases, yes, it's only a matter of defining the alias. BUT it has to be tested to make sure of it.
[06:25:25] <system5> sorry if I'm confused, but when I read: http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6775313 there was a line that said: "On-board Ethernet network device is not recognized in the MCP65 nVidia chipset.
[06:25:29] <system5> It seems that there's only an alias missing in driver_aliases.
[06:25:36] <system5> ok, ic
[06:25:43] <system5> so do I have to ship hardware to someone for them to test it?
[06:25:48] <lblume> I had a Broadcome chipset once, that attached when the alias was defined, and worked for a while. Until the box panicked.
[06:25:59] <system5> that's the way we usually do it in *BSD
[06:26:20] <system5> Broadcom is horrible, especially their wireless
[06:26:53] <system5> and their gigabit ethernet chipsets are used in those Extreme Black Diamond core switches (which I have an extreme hatred for)
[06:26:59] <lblume> Try to get in touch with Zhen W and ask him directly. Maybe he doesn't have the hardware available.
[06:27:07] <system5> the Extreme Black Diamond is like a CISCO Catalyst 6500 but purple
[06:27:17] <system5> yeah, if he needs hardware, maybe the community can try to dig some up
[06:27:52] <alanc> shipping hardware to china is always fun though
[06:28:00] <system5> ... great ....
[06:28:09] <Spencer_tt1> do you get noodles in return :)
[06:28:13] <system5> Ramen
[06:28:18] <system5> and only when you ship to Korea, not China
[06:28:45] <sstallion> system5: well, driver_aliases isn't the entire picture. The hardware must be vetted, and the NICDRV gods must be satisfied (not an easy task).
[06:28:51] <alanc> just have to deal with customs, and if you're in the US, proving you're not shipping restricted technology
[06:29:01] <sstallion> it has to be reviewed, pushed through RTI, and eventually integrated.
[06:29:13] <sstallion> this isn't a high priority bug by any stretch of the imagination.
[06:29:20] <Spencer_tt1> if only that applied to software...
[06:29:20] <sstallion> s/bug/feature request/
[06:29:36] <lblume> alanc: Oh, don't tell me. Those guys in Brisbane who sent a Riverbed appliance. It got stuck before the customs for 6 months before simply managing to send it back.
[06:29:36] <alanc> Spencer_tt1: it does
[06:29:59] <alanc> there's just different restricted technology for software
[06:30:08] <Spencer_tt1> how do you go about enforcing internet loopholes - great firewall?
[06:30:50] <alanc> not as bad as when the restrictions were tighter, and covered things like 56-bit DES encryption
[06:30:50] <Spencer_tt1> that's interesting
[06:30:52] <lblume> alanc: And if you're in China, proving you're importing CCC-validated technology, and that you have the right import license :-)
[06:31:14] <system5> it must be easy to ship things from China to the U.S. though since everything that is sold at Walmart is made in China
[06:31:18] <Andys^> Export Denied. Reason: ROT13
[06:31:32] <alanc> dunno about enforcement - we're on the other side, making sure we comply so the government doesn't enforce our ass out of business or into jail
[06:31:52] <system5> when I was in the Army and they switched to black berets, the first shipment of black berets given to the troops was "Made in China"
[06:31:59] <lblume> Spencer_tt1: You used to get KFC in Sun Beijing, now it's Subway :-P
[06:32:03] <system5> I think most of the American flags were made in China for a while too
[06:32:07] <system5> was kind of surprising
[06:32:17] <system5> I'm just mentioning it for humor / ironic value, I'm not talking politics here
[06:32:18] <sstallion> jmcp: you know it would be good to setup a KCA on this side of the pond sometime - would be good to see the usual suspects ;)
[06:32:20] <Spencer_tt1> lblume: hahaha :)
[06:32:42] <alanc> China still has restrictions on export - try to take smuggle a protected antiquity out of the country and see how long before you end up in front of the firing squad
[06:32:43] <jmcp> sstallion: kinda
[06:32:54] <Spencer_tt1> is McDonalds still in China
[06:32:58] <jmcp> one of the reasons for having KCA in the first place was because it's so expensive to get over to the US
[06:33:04] <jmcp> but a general kernel conference, for sure
[06:33:05] <jmcp> yeah
[06:33:12] <lblume> Spencer_tt1: Yes, quite fashionable, too.
[06:33:19] <sstallion> jmcp: *nod*

[06:39:30] <system5> I do spend some of my free time trying to keep up with what's going on in terms of Osol development
[06:39:32] <alanc> CDE isn't part of opensolaris, so it's bugs aren't published on bugs.os.o
[06:39:40] <system5> and Solaris development
[06:39:54] <alanc> S10U9 isn't part of opensoalris, so it's bugs aren't discussed in opensolaris lists
[06:40:11] <Shoggoth> I've been living in GNU land for too long... would someone care to remind me how to find that start time of a process that is more than 24hrs old using SYSV ps ?
[06:40:20] <Shoggoth> wall time that is
[06:40:20] <system5> that's why you don't see me asking unnecessary questions at opensolaris.org like "Are you guys still developing OpenSolaris? Is Oracle going to kill it?"
[06:40:40] <system5> I don't ask these questions because it's easy to see that it's still in active development just by following the bugs and the rate they are getting fixed
[06:41:15] <alanc> and the definition of stopper includes non-technical reasons that a bug needs to be fixed before the product ships
[06:41:27] <system5> hey Shoggoth, isn't there a time column in "ps -ef" ?
[06:41:30] <system5> correct me if I'm wrong
[06:41:45] <system5> ps -ef | grep -i time
[06:41:47] <alanc> the time column changes to date once a process is more than 24 hours old
[06:42:25] <Shoggoth> yes it does... is it possible to retrieve the time information after that using some extra flags or perhaps via some other tool?
[06:42:45] <nachox> once the process is done running?
[06:42:46] *** echobinary has joined #opensolaris
[06:42:48] <system5> ok here I got it
[06:42:50] <system5> ps -eo time
[06:42:59] <nachox> if you've turned process accounting on, yes
[06:43:00] <system5> or maybe ps -ef | awk '{print $8}'
[06:43:29] <alanc> I think you want ps -e -o etime
[06:43:33] <sstallion> Shoggoth: ptime
[06:43:43] <sstallion> ptime -p <pid>
[06:44:00] <system5> I didn't know there was a proctool for that
[06:44:04] <system5> good call sstallion
[06:44:40] <sstallion> man -s 1 proc

[06:48:50] <sstallion> crappy Linux driver source written by Microsoft employees
[06:49:07] <sstallion> I'd rather work on 1,000 dnets first ;P
[06:49:15] <nachox> which one?
[06:49:26] * nachox is doing a night shift
[06:49:27] <sstallion> Hyper-V paravirt drivers
[06:49:38] <sstallion> [lewellyn] is trying to talk me into porting them ;)
[06:49:49] <nachox> they are bsd licensed?
[06:49:53] <sstallion> yeah
[06:49:57] <sstallion> dual bsd and GPL
[06:50:04] <nachox> well, at least they did something right
[06:50:07] <system5> to run OpenSolaris better in Hyper V ?
[06:50:17] <sstallion> system5: presumably
[06:50:29] <Shoggoth> thanks... ps -o etime was the one I needed
[06:50:31] <Shoggoth> ta
[06:50:48] <system5> Shoggoth, I think I was wrong
[06:50:57] <system5> try this command: ls /usr/proc/bin
[06:51:00] <system5> and look at the ptime command
[06:51:24] <system5> it's better than ps -eo time, isn't it?
[06:51:27] <sstallion> /usr/proc/bin is a legacy path; don't use it.
[06:51:30] *** eviljames has joined #opensolaris
[06:52:17] <system5> oh, so /usr/bin/pfiles isn't just a symlink to /usr/proc/bin/pfiles ?
[06:52:24] <Shoggoth> system5: ptime doesn't work for me
[06:52:26] <system5> just checked and it's not! strange
[06:52:33] <Shoggoth> it doesn't accept a '-p' argument
[06:52:35] <sstallion> Shoggoth: ptime -p <pid>
[06:52:48] <nachox> thats the whole point of legacy paths, they are legacy
[06:52:56] *** syamajala has quit IRC
[06:52:59] <Shoggoth> there is no '-p' option
[06:53:14] <nachox> ptime pid doesnt work?
[06:53:14] <sstallion> Shoggoth: there is... have you tried?
[06:53:18] <Shoggoth> yes
[06:53:22] <Shoggoth> and I've checked the man page
[06:53:28] <Shoggoth> _no_ -p option
[06:53:31] <system5> yeah, and all the man pages for those nifty commands are contained in proc(1) which always made it more confusing, I though
[06:53:35] <system5> * I thought
[06:53:59] <Shoggoth> unless it's something they've added _since_ 2008.11
[06:54:12] <Shoggoth> because the man page has no mention of it
[06:54:13] <system5> yeah, I"m in 2009.06 and my man page for proc(1) says: /usr/bin/ptime [-Fm] [-p] pid...
[06:54:22] <Shoggoth> and the command barfs when you pass it a '-p'
[06:54:27] <sstallion> Shoggoth: works fine for me... try without the -p
[06:54:40] <system5> man -s 1 proc
[06:54:51] <Shoggoth> ptime: failed to exec -p: No such file or directory
[06:55:20] <sstallion> Shoggoth: odd. It may very well be a new flag - I didn't think it was.
[06:55:31] <Shoggoth> man -s 1 proc
[06:55:32] <Shoggoth> ...
[06:55:38] <Shoggoth> /usr/bin/ptime command [arg]...
[06:55:39] <Shoggoth> ...
[06:55:44] <Shoggoth> no -p
[06:55:48] <Shoggoth> nothing mentioned below either
[06:55:55] <system5> weird
[06:55:58] <Shoggoth> so yes it must be something newer than 2008.11
[06:56:03] <Shoggoth> gotta love that
[06:56:14] <system5> my man page says: SunOS 5.11 Last change: 10 Dec 2008 1
[06:56:17] <system5> at the bottom
[06:56:19] <sstallion> Shoggoth: 2008.11 is pretty old - sounds like its time for an update ;)
[06:56:29] <Shoggoth> I'm in the middle of that :)
[06:56:40] <Shoggoth> I've got two solaris paravirt VM's
[06:56:43] <Shoggoth> one 2008.11
[06:56:46] <Shoggoth> and one b129
[06:56:47] <richlowe> ptime -p arrived almost exactly too late to make 2008.11
[06:56:51] <system5> yeah, you shouldn't still run 2008.11 unless you're a masochist, IPS got a little better in 2009.06
[06:56:55] <richlowe> Nov 17th
[06:56:57] <sstallion> richlowe: ahh fun.
[06:57:08] <Shoggoth> like I said... I'm in the _middle_ of an upgrade
[06:57:17] <system5> you like the b129 Shoggoth?
[06:57:19] <Shoggoth> the thing I want to find the elapsed time for is a zfs send
[06:57:30] <Shoggoth> it seems to be better than b134 yeah
[06:57:35] <sstallion> Shoggoth: can't you just use good ol' fashioned time(1) for that?
[06:57:41] <sstallion> time zfs send ...
[06:57:57] <sstallion> (mind you I've never used send/recv)
[06:58:12] <richlowe> Think -v may tell you, too,
[06:58:25] <system5> I'm wondering if that ZFS deduplication bug where using "zfs destroy" on a deduped zpool hangs the system affects snv_129
[06:58:28] <system5> http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6924824
[06:58:39] <Shoggoth> sstallion: yes if you remember to start the process with $ time progname
[06:58:41] <system5> I'm too scared to try since my snv_129 machine is in production and has a lot of users / developers on it
[06:59:15] <sstallion> Shoggoth: ps/ptime will be about it for you then
[06:59:23] <nachox> the -p option was added to ptime as part of PSARC/2007/598
[06:59:25] <Shoggoth> I'm doing a zfs send/receive of 897GB of data... it's about a 30hr job :)
[06:59:43] <nachox> if youve got something that is older, then you will not have that option
[07:00:13] <Shoggoth> in any case ps -eo pid,etime,args | grep zfs did want I wanted
[07:00:20] <Shoggoth> thanks!
[07:00:35] <sstallion> Shoggoth: use pgrep ;)
[07:00:42] <nachox> it was integrated in Mon Nov 17 10:57:46 PST 2008
[07:00:42] <sstallion> ps -eo pid,etime,args `pgrep zfs`
[07:00:44] *** inova has left #opensolaris
[07:00:52] <Andys^> Shoggoth: next time, deploy mbuffer
[07:00:52] *** doug_ndndn has quit IRC
[07:01:05] <Shoggoth> yeah I should get around to learning how to drive some of the nice new tools
[07:01:11] <Shoggoth> Andys^: mbuffer?
[07:01:25] <Andys^> Shoggoth: http://www.maier-komor.de/mbuffer.html
[07:01:30] <Andys^> zfs send blah | mbuffer | zfs receive
[07:01:33] <Andys^> speeds things up a fair bit
[07:02:06] <Shoggoth> looks useful in general
[07:02:20] <Shoggoth> but I don't think it would have helped in this specific instance
[07:02:30] <Fallen_Demon> So how do I update to b134? Haven't done this before :(
[07:02:34] *** chilicuil has joined #opensolaris
[07:02:37] <Fallen_Demon> Fresh install of 2009.06
[07:02:50] <sstallion> Fallen_Demon: word of advice: don't
[07:02:50] *** macros73 has quit IRC
[07:02:53] <sstallion> wait for 2010.03
[07:03:02] <Fallen_Demon> Ok
[07:03:14] <Fallen_Demon> How do I upgrade to a new build then? XD
[07:03:31] <Shoggoth> system5: back to your query about b129
[07:03:33] <Andys^> shoggoth: zfs send has very little buffering and is single-threaded... mbuffer speeds it up quite alot
[07:03:45] <sstallion> once the release is made, you should just do an image-update.
[07:03:49] <Andys^> shoggoth: watch how unbusy your disks are while running zfs send... they're usually almost idle
[07:03:54] <sstallion> The release notes will have the instructions you need.
[07:04:06] <Fallen_Demon> Cool, thanks sstallion
[07:04:07] *** LaidBack_01 has joined #opensolaris

[07:04:29] * sstallion &
[07:04:41] <Shoggoth> Andys^: I'm running both the send and receive on the same solaris VM and it's running on top of a linux dom0 with Full-Disc-Encryption.... it was going to be slow no matter what
[07:04:59] <Andys^> heheh
[07:05:21] <Andys^> in that case you need all the help you can get :)
[07:05:26] <Shoggoth> Andys^: but that said... what you say is true: the disc activity is bursty... I'll try it out for my next transfer
[07:06:01] <Shoggoth> system5: I was a little disappointed to find that b129 didn't support lzma compression and fletcher4 for dedupe but then again neither does b134 it turns out
[07:06:33] <Shoggoth> Andys^: I'm planning on moving the full-disc-encryption into the VM as I upgrade using lofi
[07:07:03] <Shoggoth> Andys^: but I am concerned about the encryption on offer by lofi... cbc only not overly secure
[07:09:51] <Andys^> oh?
[07:10:19] <Shoggoth> Andys^: yes... cbc is now considered a very bad idea
[07:11:13] <Shoggoth> they aught to be using ESSIV at the very least, xts would be preferable
[07:11:16] <Shoggoth> see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_encryption_theory#Block_cipher-based_modes
[07:11:45] <Shoggoth> it's also concerning that they only offer aes, blowfish and 3des
[07:12:22] <Shoggoth> 3des is as slow as hell... blowfish isn't really suitable for a block cipher and aes is starting to show a few cracks

[07:36:39] <akhs> Is it possible that nxge1 link can be configured to logical domain in Sun netra T5220?
[07:36:54] <richlowe> but man should do the right things based on $PATH if $MANPATH is unset, so it should all line up :\
[07:37:33] <akhs> I am trying it so but not able to fix it up!
[07:38:21] <Shoggoth> richlowe: I must have done something with MANPATH... I expect I must've downloaded some stuff from sunfreeware.com a while back... although I don't remember
[07:38:33] <Shoggoth> it is a 2008.11 box after all
[07:38:34] <Shoggoth> :)
[07:39:01] <Shoggoth> well that's interesting - cc: Warning: illegal option -xarch=v9
[07:39:12] <Shoggoth> I guess ./configure must have a preference for gcc
[07:39:32] <alanc> Shoggoth: umm, v9 is short for sparcv9 - cc is not a cross-compiler
[07:39:44] <richlowe> something in Desktop looks to clobber MANPATH, too.

[07:48:15] <Shoggoth> yet another annoying question from the Shoggoth: if I have a number of files inside of one mountpoint and do a mv of those files to a different mountpoing within the same zpool do I incur a copy penalty like a regular device-to-device move?
[07:48:28] <richlowe> Yes
[07:48:34] <Shoggoth> thanks
[07:49:03] <Shoggoth> I was kind of hoping since zfs mountpoint were so light weight they might be a little more like a directory :)

[09:16:57] <Shoggoth> originating host, destination host or both?
[09:17:03] <Andys^> zfs send | mbuffer | ssh | zfs receive
[09:17:10] <Shoggoth> right! ta
[09:17:32] *** mikefut has joined #opensolaris
[09:17:34] <Shoggoth> that's what I suspected but I wasn't confident :(
[09:17:39] <ArcAngel> am i looking in the wrong place or something?
[09:17:52] <ArcAngel> i find almost all other packages
[09:17:54] <Shoggoth> thanks again!
[09:17:57] <ArcAngel> but not lsof
[09:18:23] <Andys^> shoggoth: it gives you a nice readout too :)
[09:19:03] <Shoggoth> yeah I noticed that in the man page... sweet!
[09:19:15] <Shoggoth> I'll try it when I do my next zfs send/recv
[09:20:22] <Shoggoth> I'm still waiting for the current one to finish 843G of 897G ... almost there 1 day 5h 49m
[09:20:26] <Andys^> and if you're doing it over a network you'll probably want to add a gzip -1 in there too

[10:14:22] <Stric> is "blurray" supposed to be a joke? if so, it's not funny.. if not, you're spelling it wrong. "Blu-ray"
[10:14:29] <MGSsancho> despite the fact that its own tool likes my hcdp complient rig
[10:14:49] <wdp> .oO( good that i'm using mplayer )
[10:15:18] <MGSsancho> spent thousands on my system, bought all approved gear and it wont run, I refuse to spell their products correctly =)

[10:15:52] * MGSsancho doesn't need help with that ;)

[10:20:05] <[lewellyn]> (they're relatively expensive, but far cheaper than tape still)
[10:20:27] <MGSsancho> maybe it doesnt like my dvi cable? advisor tool had no beef with it. i can use hdmi ill try it later
[10:20:50] <[lewellyn]> powerdvd is a finicky beast. it doesn't like my usb speakers
[10:20:58] <[lewellyn]> happy with miniplug though

[11:10:59] <Shoggoth> does zfs only create a block-level checksum or does it also have a per-file checksum stored somewhere in the meta-data?
[11:11:45] <asyd> per block afaik
[11:12:01] *** chendy_ has joined #opensolaris
[11:12:17] <Shoggoth> is there a simple way to obtain a list of all the blocks for each file and the checksums for said blocks?
[11:12:53] <Stric> zdb probably has something, which is probably not optimized for what you want
[11:13:10] <Shoggoth> ok... fair 'nuff
[11:13:20] <Stric> there is no official api

[11:27:50] <RoyK> hi all. are there docs available on how to make opensolaris log properly? I have system hangs, possibly related to virtualbox, but I can find nothing in the logs. Even if vbox would be doing something bad, I find it strange that vbox alone should be able to take down the whole system
[11:31:40] *** mlh has joined #opensolaris
[11:33:27] <Bateau> any idea what the holdup is with 2010.03? (not asking when, just wondering how big the issue is, if anyone has a clue)

[11:46:39] <jbit> it's still orcales fault!!!1111
[11:46:48] <mui> could be yes
[11:46:56] <[lewellyn]> going 111b->134 means a lucky rabbit's foot in your pocket :P
[11:47:19] <jbit> i like how installing svn also installs firefox still
[11:47:27] <jbit> wish they'd fix that :(
[11:47:39] <seanmcg> zdb has a 'gui', you can use it through emacs ;)
[11:47:42] <[lewellyn]> jbit: i'm more wishing contrib worked properly :P
[11:47:59] <[lewellyn]> seanmcg: point and click! easier to use than vpanels! get on it! ;)
[11:48:02] <jbit> [lewellyn]: well it's annoying when you have firefox and half of gnome in a server zone
[11:48:19] <[lewellyn]> jbit: i end up with that on AMP boxes anyhow, it seems :P
[11:48:32] <jbit> it's cos libproxy depends on firefox
[11:48:39] <[lewellyn]> imagemagick + gd + [...] all starts bringing in X and gnome cruft
[11:48:47] <seanmcg> [lewellyn], is there enough people wanting a gui for zdb ? I'd smile if this was -6 days ago
[11:48:48] <[lewellyn]> seanmcg: Not here.
[11:48:48] <jbit> so anything that uses libproxy (svn, etc, etc) pulls in firefox which pulls in most of gnome
[11:48:57] <jbit> [lewellyn]: ah, that too :)
[11:48:58] <[lewellyn]> seanmcg: heh. we were joking
[11:49:15] * [lewellyn] should unaway some day
[11:49:15] *** edogawaconan has joined #opensolaris
[11:49:44] <seanmcg> zenity for the zdb gui, they've both got 'z' in the name :)
[11:49:50] <jbit> [lewellyn]: but then people might talk to you
[11:50:11] <mui> fear teh social interaction
[11:50:38] <jbit> i'm always marked as "in a meeting" at work in outlook
[11:50:38] <[lewellyn]> jbit: yeah. as opposed to the like 10% chance i autorespond that i'm not here when highlighted ;)
[11:50:44] <timsf> Of course zdb needs a gui. It needs to look *exactly* like this: http://okcancel.com/strips/okcancel20031010.gif
[11:51:11] <asyd> hehe
[11:51:26] <[lewellyn]> timsf: it already looks like that in emacs! ;)

[12:08:18] <samc> Any of you guys using GPG from the SUNWgnupg package? I've got it installed, but I'm not able to decrypt anything with my existing key -- I believe because the OpenSolaris package isn't built with the CAST5 cipher enabled (see http://linux.gen.nz/gpg-opensolaris.html for output -- pastebin site seems to be down)
[12:08:27] <samc> Any ideas?
[12:10:56] <samc> I'd submit a bug report, but for all I know CAST5 has been disabled for a good reason

[12:17:24] <[lewellyn]> i don't see any patches applicable to that sort of issue either
[12:17:33] <samc> [lewellyn]: ahh magic, was wondering if that kind of info was around, wasn't sure where to look though :)
[12:17:39] <samc> I'll chuck in a bug report just in case it's an oversight
[12:18:03] <richlowe> this is the first I noticed gpg was there, too.
[12:18:33] <richlowe> so I was excited for almost a whole sentence.
[12:18:34] <richlowe> then boom!

[16:16:04] <geppy> My real concern, I guess, is that I'm worried about getting a new version of ZFS while my pool is awaiting resync and so probably can't be upgraded.

[16:39:20] <timsf> I would submit that dcmd help isn't quite at the level more people need!

[16:39:45] <megaTherion> no the file is only owned by the user I log in with, however those messages appear before logging in
[16:39:50] <seanmcg> timsf then you're not trying hard enough :)

[16:44:21] <brad_> I am not able to configure 10g nxge1 link with ldom???
[16:45:17] <mui> in 111b?
[16:45:20] <alanc> megaTherion: known bug listed in the 134 release notes (link is in /topic) - the problem is the home directory for the gdm user needed to be changed on upgrade, but isn't if you upgrade from a version before the pkg image-update fix for that bug went in
[16:45:33] *** nitrile_ has quit IRC
[16:45:51] <megaTherion> alanc: what home directory, /??
[16:46:26] <alanc> if it failed to upgrade, yes, the gdm account will have a home directory of /, which the gdm user cannot write to
[16:46:42] <alanc> the fix is shown in the release notes to change the gdm home directory to one it can write to
[16:46:54] <megaTherion> well that's easy I suppose
[16:47:05] <megaTherion> alanc: isnt it enough when I change the perm of /.Xauthority?
[16:47:17] <geppy> megaTherion: Not if the home directory changed.
[16:47:29] <megaTherion> I didnt change anything ;)
[16:47:42] <megaTherion> /etc/passwd says its /

[16:51:29] <brad_> yesterday I raised the issue..
[16:51:40] <brad_> right now again..
[16:51:45] <brad_> but no response!!
[16:51:48] <brad_> :(
[16:52:01] <Stric> um. I'm in there and you're not
[16:52:19] <ArcAngel> so
[16:52:33] <brad_> am with user ID :- XS4-307.
[16:52:35] <Stric> you're probably on some other network, misspelled the name or something
[16:52:36] <ArcAngel> would you guys say Solaris expert == OpenSolaris expert?
[16:52:51] <Stric> 16:57 ::: There is no such nick xs4-307
[16:52:57] <geppy> Would you say "NT expert == Windows 2003" expert?
[16:53:03] <ArcAngel> exactly
[16:53:03] <brad_> I am in #solaris
[16:53:13] <ArcAngel> something they don't seem to get at my work
[16:53:15] <Stric> brad_: not on freenode
[16:53:34] <ArcAngel> i know solaris so i know opensolaris
[16:53:45] <ArcAngel> when i failed at something they said "oh, we thought you knew solaris"
[16:53:49] <brad_> Stric, Which one should I try on??
[16:53:51] <ArcAngel> eheh
[16:53:57] <ArcAngel> well not failed
[16:54:01] <geppy> ArcAngel: haha, yeah. I was telling one of my friends how great ZFS is, and now he's hiring me to fix his Solaris boxes. Oh well, they're probably just needing a *nix guy, they're all EEs.

[16:54:38] <Stric> brad_: so what #solaris are you talking about? on what irc network?
[16:55:05] <ArcAngel> ircnet i think

[16:55:21] <ArcAngel> i see him join there
[16:55:53] *** biant92 has left #opensolaris
[16:56:09] <Stric> brad_: anyhow, since you know you're talking to the "wrong" people.. when you do, state it clearly that you're not running opensolaris (which this channel is about), but solaris..
[16:56:16] <alanc> megaTherion: no, .Xauthority is not .ICEauthority, and that's just one of the files gdm needs to change
[16:56:19] <brad_> Stric, http://webchat.xs4all.nl/cgi-bin/ircnet/irc.cgi
[16:56:25] <alanc> READ THE DAMN RELEASE NOTES ALREADY
[16:56:36] <megaTherion> alanc: I know that they are not the same, but .Xauthority is the only one in /
[16:56:37] <geppy> alanc: Chill, man.
[16:56:44] <megaTherion> alanc: your capslock is broken
[16:56:45] <brad_> Stric, am runnning Solaris..
[16:57:01] <Stric> megaTherion: that's because gdm couldn't write .ICEauthority
[16:57:01] <geppy> brad_: I don't think you're going to find that anyone here is going to help you at this point.

[16:57:10] <megaTherion> Stric: why does gdm need to write it? :|
[16:57:18] <alanc> BECAUSE GDM DOES
[16:57:24] <Stric> megaTherion: because it does. now go read the release notes and fix it.
[16:57:27] <geppy> megaTherion: alanc is right, "because it does".
[16:57:27] <alanc> that's the way it works
[16:57:34] <megaTherion> ya ya okay ;)
[16:57:35] <ArcAngel> brad_: i am there too on #Solaris
[16:57:49] <brad_> Stric, Can you tell me If iam in wrong place, how can I go to correct place to talk about #solaris
[16:57:55] <megaTherion> I dont like to read release notes - I rather change gdm's directory to /var/tmp or some such
[16:57:59] <Stric> brad_: /join #solaris

[16:59:47] <alanc> this is all part of the new gdm that went into build 130 and runs a mini-gnome-session as the user gdm to show the login screen with all the new widgets - GNOME sessions require writing to a bunch of different dot files in the home directory of the user running them

[17:01:12] <lblume> Losers that say they don't like to read, and think they're entitled to some help because of their loser status :-D
[17:01:12] <Stric> brad_: I have no clue what you're doing or how you're doing it.. right now, you're connected to #opensolaris on the irc network "freenode". do the same, but #solaris on "freenode". not #solaris on "ircnet".

[17:01:48] <Stric> brad_: You didn't do that to get _here_
[17:01:50] <alanc> amazingly someone was here last night with almost the exact same question about devices in ldoms on S10U5, with about the same response
[17:01:55] <megaTherion> lblume: I didnt want any of your help now move along go play elsewhere
[17:02:00] <Macer> unices haha
[17:02:00] *** phil has quit IRC
[17:02:02] <brad_> than I am putting Solaris in search option to get to #Solaris
[17:02:19] <lblume> megaTherion: Hey, I didn't want to read your inane statements either, but here they came :-D
[17:02:28] <lblume> Magic of the internet!
[17:02:30] *** phil has joined #opensolaris
[17:02:35] <Stric> brad_: ignore search options.. #solaris on irc network called "freenode"
[17:02:38] <geppy> megaTherion: You asked for his help when you asked in the channel. It's pretty insulting that not only did people help you with your issue, you're now insulting and rebuffing them.
[17:02:41] <Macer> you should (tm) unices ;)
[17:03:11] <effnorwood> too late - the term unices has been on my resume since 1999
[17:03:15] <megaTherion> geppy: no one is forced anything, lblume starting conversing and joking about what I do or not is completly useless if he dont want he shall not response nor argue
[17:03:18] <megaTherion> and now its time for ignore
[17:03:20] <effnorwood> it's a great term.
[17:03:47] <lblume> Yup, I certainly don't pretend to have invented it! I've been reading it here and there forever.
[17:03:50] <geppy> lblume: haha, I remember when we had to explain to my (then) three-year-old niece how when she asks a question (without naming a person) then everyone in the room can hear and answer it. I can understand how it would be frustrating to not understand that.
[17:04:12] <effnorwood> as a matter of fact - google unices and unix comes up first

[17:07:51] <lblume> But still, I arrived right on time in that conversation with megaTherion, I feel that people who proudly state they won't read release notes, even after been told several times that an exact answer to their question is there, are the most adequate to make fun of.
[17:08:11] <effnorwood> can we leave the devolution and primitivism to #linux please? :)
[17:08:17] <geppy> I would use /ignore, but then I run the risk of not being able to understand what people are saying (because I'm only seeing half of the "conversation").
[17:08:59] <lblume> effnorwood: Awwww, you're not fun, I'm almost never there!

[17:12:51] <effnorwood> asyd - so you're saying you read the release notes? what's the third word on page 11? :)
[17:12:55] <lblume> asyd: You like more people like CP, right?
[17:13:15] <asyd> effnorwood: everyone know there is no page 11

[17:17:10] <effnorwood> it is the most irreverent possible
[17:17:17] <lblume> It's way too unharmonious to be broadcast here, I'll have to look around....

[17:27:27] <Gugge> ArcAngel: theres people on zfs-discuss that have had problems removing snapshots with dedup enabled ... i think it all boiled down to it just needs a lot of ram or l2arc ... plus a lot of time
[17:27:47] <effnorwood> ArcAngel - dedup has come a long way in 134 but it's still buggy and has issues. i would search for bugs resolved for snapshots since 128a.

[17:33:28] <effnorwood> i'm going to upgrade that box now from 131 to 134. anyone have any strong "nooooooooooooo!" comments before i do?
[17:33:51] <lblume> noooooooooooooo!
[17:33:53] <taemun> noooooooooo
[17:34:00] <effnorwood> lol
[17:34:01] <taemun> 2010.03 (?) can't be tooooo far away
[17:34:05] <lblume> 134 is all broken on me :'(
[17:34:42] <effnorwood> lblume: tell me more about what's broken. btw, did you read the release notes? :)
[17:34:45] <lblume> And it had several problems, that appeared one by one, one popping each time the other was worked around.
[17:34:53] <eklof> effnorwood: no worries, i did the same, 134 is the most stable release for me yet (of the dev-releases since 111)
[17:34:57] <lblume> effnorwood: Yes I did, but thos problems were not there.
[17:35:07] <houst0n> Gah, don't say that... I'm about to install snv_134 for our sunrays
[17:35:09] <houst0n> Avoid?
[17:35:24] <eklof> Only somewhat bothered by the rpool-mirror-boot bug :)
[17:35:25] <effnorwood> lblume: there's this guy you might want to talk to about release notes. he's on a skyscraper or something. :)
[17:35:30] <geppy> haha
[17:35:38] *** Beket has joined #opensolaris
[17:35:42] <eklof> But I have enabled the workaround...
[17:35:58] <effnorwood> eklof: i have a mirrored root pool - do you have a bug #?
[17:36:04] <lblume> First, ipf stopped working, though the filter is really simple (just blocking incoming connections, then I got the grub boot crash, and finally, when those two were "corrected", ath stopped working. I gave up on that :-D
[17:36:05] <megaTherion> release notes are extremly overrated in this channel *rofl*
[17:36:10] <effnorwood> eklof: and the workaround even better please
[17:36:27] <eklof> Hrm, I'll check.
[17:36:47] *** astra-x_timeout has joined #opensolaris
[17:36:59] <effnorwood> eklof: thanks
[17:37:13] <xenol> hello, i wish to install opensolaris as shell server for users. i found minimization.ksh from ISC, but it just removed gui. how can i remove all packages, so that the base system stays
[17:37:14] <eklof> http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6923585
[17:37:23] <xenol> or even better how to install only base system
[17:37:30] <eklof> oh it's reported against 130, so you already have that bug!
[17:37:35] <eklof> :=
[17:37:55] *** astra-x_timeout has quit IRC
[17:38:37] <effnorwood> eklof: thank you! i note it's fixed in 137. 137! what?
[17:38:51] <taemun> 137 koalas
[17:39:00] <lblume> Maybe in 2010.03 too if you're lucky.

[17:41:34] <kohju> when does next dev release ?
[17:41:57] <eklof> the next released is 2010.0X i think
[17:42:06] <megaTherion> xenol: maybe you wanna try nexenta?
[17:42:07] <eklof> like 134a/b/c/d or whatever.
[17:42:27] <Beket> so any news aboyt 2010.03 ?
[17:42:28] <megaTherion> it didnt work out as complete gui desktop for me but without gnome and all that stuff it worked so far
[17:42:30] * Beket j/k
[17:42:30] <Beket> :P
[17:42:51] <xenol> megaTherion: well if i can stay at opensolaris
[17:42:55] <xenol> i would prefer it
[17:43:15] <megaTherion> xenol: its GNU/Opensolaris ;)
[17:43:35] <eXeC001er> Somebody uses 'inetconv' ?
[17:43:37] *** ant has joined #opensolaris
[17:43:38] <houst0n> sod nexavoid nexenta
[17:43:46] <houst0n> it's not binary compatible with real solaris
[17:43:50] <houst0n> fucking pointless
[17:43:59] <megaTherion> houst0n: depends if you need solaris binaries or not
[17:44:08] <megaTherion> for a shell server such a sys with compiler would be okay
[17:44:10] <houst0n> On my desktop, yep
[17:44:40] <xenol> megaTherion: pardon
[17:44:47] <houst0n> I've not seen their build enviro.. There's probably some sick stuff going on...
[17:45:03] *** ziyourenxiang has joined #opensolaris
[17:45:17] <ant> I've never been able to understand the point of osol + ubuntu (or deb or whatever the hell they try to tack on)
[17:45:55] <megaTherion> ant: maybe some ppl have too many time? :p
[17:46:21] <megaTherion> err s/many/much
[17:46:34] <houst0n> ant: Some idiot^H^H^H^H^Hpeople decided that opensolaris should try and get some of linux's desktop marketshare , unfortunately they're a few years too late to the game..
[17:46:43] <t3h_realadamd> I've been trying out that Nexentastor thing they offer.
[17:46:51] <houst0n> Alas, it's good and bad for us
[17:47:06] <houst0n> We get some nice desktop toys, and hopefully oracle won't release it as enterprise software
[17:47:51] <megaTherion> t3h_realadamd: and?
[17:47:55] <houst0n> Still, a convo that's been had about a million times in here
[17:47:56] <t3h_realadamd> ...meh
[17:48:08] <houst0n> So ..... lets talk about something else huh?
[17:48:09] <ant> well, I worked briefly for Nexenta; I have nothing good to say about them
[17:48:15] <ant> Dmitry and Alex are good guys
[17:48:27] <ant> houst0n++
[17:48:30] <houst0n> ant: Are they using glibc?
[17:48:31] <ant> I agree
[17:48:48] <t3h_realadamd> We use all Windows servers here, so the only thing that we'd use it for are iSCSI - dedupe doesn't seem to do much if you're just sharing out everything iscsi
[17:48:50] <ant> is there a way to pipe that to ##nexenta?
[17:49:10] <effnorwood> i must agree that i am not a nexenta fan
[17:49:15] <houst0n> t3h_realadamd: besides rape your perf....
[17:49:22] <t3h_realadamd> well, true
[17:49:26] <houst0n> I wouldn't suggest using dedupe on ... anything really atm
[17:49:33] <t3h_realadamd> unless I've really missed something
[17:49:36] <effnorwood> however i love that they've created a business around selling zfs
[17:50:00] <houst0n> effnorwood: They've done some cool little projects too, did you see the devzones thing they built?
[17:50:03] <houst0n> Rather funky, I have to say
[17:50:05] *** MaxVandervelde has joined #opensolaris
[17:50:21] <effnorwood> houst0n: no, i'll check that out thanks
[17:50:34] <houst0n> Do you know anyone who would actually suggest nexenta over s10 for a production deployment?
[17:50:37] <houst0n> I sure as hell don't
[17:51:10] *** hajma has quit IRC
[17:51:54] <xenol> megaTherion: my point is to give users solaris-based shell server, but i need only base utils. i don't wish to have more possible security holes when i don't have to ^_^
[17:52:20] <effnorwood> houst0n: that's the crazy beauty of marketing. no one who know would, but people who don't know actually do!
[17:52:38] <effnorwood> knows*
[17:52:42] <megaTherion> xenol: if it really need to be solaris, dunno how to strip osol from most stuff + gui etc.
[17:52:53] <houst0n> xenol: What do you want it to do?
[17:53:01] <xenol> basic shell server
[17:53:03] <houst0n> Just feed shells to the masses? compiler, perl etc stuff?
[17:53:06] <megaTherion> I personally would just use a BSD and thats it
[17:53:11] <xenol> irssi shells compierls etc
[17:53:19] <houst0n> Meh I'd go with solaris 10 tbh mate, although i sound a bit like a broken record
[17:53:27] <xenol> yes, so people can meet with solaris
[17:53:36] <xenol> houst0n: solaris is going to be paid
[17:53:40] <houst0n> Do a minimal install, choose customize and add in secure shell and bash, get everything else from blastwave
[17:53:50] <houst0n> such as irssi, gcc4, bash4 etc
[17:54:10] <houst0n> xenol: I wouldn't be so concerned just yet
[17:54:14] <crichardso> any idea why i have a snap called char-wp-fschar1@recv-16884-1
[17:54:51] <xenol> houst0n: why? oracle pointed out, that it might soon to be a reality
[17:55:39] <causality> houst0n what is blastwave?
[17:55:41] <houst0n> xenol: You really think oracle gives a shit about even a million 'shell' servers ?
[17:55:50] <houst0n> causality: www.blastwave.org
[17:55:53] <xenol> nope
[17:56:02] <houst0n> easily installable software for solaris
[17:56:06] <houst0n> w/ a repo
[17:56:10] <CIA-21> Girish Moodalbail <Girish.Moodalbail at Sun dot COM>: 6939396 the qualifiers + & - should only work for applicable protocol properties
[17:56:17] <xenol> but security fixes for solaris will cost something

[18:55:51] <RoyK^> hi all. this is a serious issue... VirtualBox seems to make my osol box friggin' hang if doing everyday stuff. I've never seen this on other platforms and I've been using virtualbox for quite some time. Since it's opensolaris, it seems it doesn't want to log much, just keep /var/adm/messages and the /var/svc/log files clean and cozy. Is it necessary to switch back to Linux to make it work correctly?

[19:00:43] <thistle_> It is listed in the HCL for Solaris 10/09

[19:43:50] <gavino> I love how microsft is now obsolete but still makes billions
[19:44:01] <RichardRaseley> I am not interested in an e-peen battle
[19:44:10] <RichardRaseley> I just was curious about adding the drivers to the installer.
[19:44:24] <Triskelios> RichardRaseley: http://wikis.sun.com/display/OSOLInstall/Using+the+Distribution+Constructor
[19:45:04] *** perlmongo has joined #opensolaris
[19:45:30] <Triskelios> oh, http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/dev/DistroConst/ is more up to date
[19:46:08] <Triskelios> RichardRaseley: if you're not deploying a large number of installs, you could just put the driver on a USB stick or something, really..
[19:46:28] <RichardRaseley> Basically the issue is this
[19:46:34] <Triskelios> (the USB install image also probably has enough scratch space)
[19:47:30] <RichardRaseley> We are building a SAN that is going to use OpenSolaris with ZFS, but the default installation doesn't have the proper driver for our controller card, so we couldn't (and I am getting this second hand from 3,000 miles away) create a zpool for the system installation
[19:47:42] <RichardRaseley> We had to create a raid 1 with 2 out of the 20 disks and install the system there.
[19:48:42] <RichardRaseley> There is a Solaris driver for this controller, but wasn't sure what the proper procedure was for integrating the driver with the installation media, or if it was just a matter of putting it in the proper path.
[19:48:54] <RichardRaseley> What are your thoughts?
[19:50:28] <RichardRaseley> Now that I am looking at the driver, it seems that it is labled as for "Solaris 10 Update 4", so should I expect there to be complete interoperability between Solaris and OpenSolaris as far as drivers are concerned.
[19:50:30] <RichardRaseley> ?*
[19:51:01] *** fedreric has quit IRC
[19:51:07] <madwizard> RichardRaseley: You may expect that, however OpenSolaris could have broken some of the backwards compatibility
[19:51:11] <madwizard> No other way but try
[19:51:22] <Triskelios> there some ABI changes which will prevent some drivers from working (but there are usually replacements for those drivers)
[19:51:28] <jbit> RichardRaseley: solaris drivers generally work on opensolaris (there are a few exceptions, usually with userland stuff)
[19:51:39] <RichardRaseley> Alright, that makes sense. Thanks.

[19:52:15] *** niq has joined #opensolaris
[19:52:29] <RichardRaseley> So in regards to putting the driver on the install disk so we can create a zpool for the system install, is it just a matter of putting it in the right place in the file structure or do I have to go through the process of building a distribution via the tool you sent me a link for?
[19:54:05] *** calumb_ has quit IRC
[19:54:11] *** t3hrealadamd has joined #opensolaris
[19:54:16] <Triskelios> RichardRaseley: there's a few files that have to be updated, the ones I can think of are: the driver file (obviously), driver_aliases, and the boot archive (which contains a copy of the first two files)
[19:55:42] *** xtrondo has joined #opensolaris
[19:55:48] <RichardRaseley> So would this best be done via the distribution constructor that you sent me a link to?
[19:56:00] <Triskelios> if you've already figured out how the filesystem image on the installer is structured you can go ahead, but the tools will probably make it easier
[19:56:24] <RichardRaseley> Yeah, I haven't. =X I will take a look at the tools and try to go that route.
[19:56:30] <RichardRaseley> I appreciate the help folks.

[20:11:35] <Triskelios> opensolarisShip: no, I download CDs or people hand them to me

[20:11:46] <lattera> :(
[20:12:03] <jbit> geppy: i think it should work on opensolaris, assuming grub doesn't go crazy
[20:12:04] <Triskelios> opensolarisShip: nobody here works for the Sun/Oracle online store you ordered the CDs from, so we can't help you
[20:12:13] <opensolarisShip> geppy: ok thank
[20:12:31] <lattera> jbit, looks like b134 (what I'm running) should support sata multipliers, then, once I switch to ahci
[20:12:34] <opensolarisShip> Triskelios: ok
[20:12:43] <jbit> lattera: seems so
[20:12:56] <geppy> Ah, yeah, jbit has a point. Try it. Worst case, you have to change it back.
[20:13:03] <geppy> or reinstall
[20:13:38] <jbit> assuming grub boots and doesn't go mad then as far as i know the solaris boot package will boot and look for a zpool called "rpool" and mount it
[20:13:48] <jbit> i don't think it cares where the disk is at all
[20:14:28] <geppy> I think grub might would die in a fire.
[20:14:30] <lattera> I'm using five of the sata connectors on my motherboard, and my motherboard supports ahci for ports 1-4
[20:14:37] <Triskelios> opensolarisShip: you might be able to find a way to contact them on the order site
[20:14:38] <lattera> would I lose that fifth disk, then?
[20:14:57] <lattera> or would opensolaris still pick that fifth disk up?
[20:15:07] <geppy> lattera: No idea, you'll have to check your motherboard manual and see what BIOS settings are available.
[20:15:08] <jbit> lattera: it'll pick up the fifth
[20:15:18] <jbit> lattera: i have similar on my motherboard at home

[21:00:10] <effnorwood> this started when i came in today and found the box hung at "Mounting ZFS filesystems". It finally timed out and booted.
[21:00:19] <wrapster> Triskelios:and it would generate an error right , pointing to ifconfig?
[21:00:26] <effnorwood> Now i know what was causing it - this share issue. Strange.
[21:00:35] <wrapster> Triskelios: coz i just tried that manually and it was failing ...
[21:00:40] *** andersenep has quit IRC
[21:01:26] <tsoome> but if you dont share with zfs set sharenfs but with share command?
[21:01:37] *** eXeC001er has quit IRC
[21:01:37] <tsoome> will it behave different?
[21:02:36] <effnorwood> right now, the windows trying to run the commands like unshare are just hung. i suspect they will eventually time out.
[21:02:50] <Triskelios> wrapster: the error could result from a plumb attempt when the interface is already active...
[21:02:53] <effnorwood> then i can try just plain old share
[21:03:15] <wrapster> Triskelios: hmm...
[21:03:31] <gavino> so do I need to tell opensolaris to use dns in nsswitch.conf?
[21:03:36] <gavino> I see only files in there
[21:03:38] <gavino> not dns
[21:03:41] <gavino> next to hosts
[21:03:42] <Triskelios> gavino: if you are not using DHCP, yes
[21:04:02] <Triskelios> gavino: the default only has 'files'
[21:06:15] <effnorwood> gavino: "cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf"
[21:06:15] <ant> Ben is currently driving back
[21:06:25] *** twisti has quit IRC
[21:07:45] <gavino> works when I add dns next to hosts after file
[21:07:48] <gavino> files
[21:07:49] <gavino> :)
[21:08:32] *** MattBenjamin has joined #opensolaris
[21:08:47] <effnorwood> gavino: yes, the nsswitch.dns is a template for .conf that contains what you want
[21:08:57] <TomJ> OS 134 - I want to configure a zone on a different subnet to the global, but still use the global's default router. i.e., my ISP has given me two subnets, one has a gateway, the other does not, and I need that no-gateway subnet to route via the GW on the other.
[21:09:00] <gavino> hm
[21:09:05] <TomJ> This works in Linux apparently, which is why the ISP do it - any way in Solaris?
[21:09:21] <effnorwood> gavino: what you did works too. i just gave you what might be easier for you. might not be too.
[21:09:26] <gavino> is it better to copy that or is it okk that i just add dns to the hosts files line?
[21:09:57] <effnorwood> gavino: either way works. i just find it easier to copy it as there is less chance for a mistake.
[21:09:59] <gavino> ::1 fatman fatman.local localhost loghost also, what is this line?
[21:10:07] <gavino> in /etc/hosts?
[21:10:16] <gavino> [my serer called fatman lol]
[21:10:17] <effnorwood> that's the log host and localhost line
[21:10:20] *** milek has joined #opensolaris
[21:10:29] <tsoome> ::1 is loopback address in ipv6
[21:10:39] <tsoome> same as 127.0.0.1
[21:10:41] <gavino> do i need to leave it alone?
[21:10:46] <gavino> if there is the 127 line?

[21:12:00] <gavino> oh thats ipv6
[21:12:00] <gavino> oow
[21:12:15] <effnorwood> gavino: take a look at Mike's blog. Lot's of good ideas there. eg - http://blog.laspina.ca/ubiquitous/running-zfs-over-iscsi-as-a-vmware-vmfs-store
[21:12:21] <gavino> id ipv6 usible? I think nobody has switched over right?
[21:12:54] <effnorwood> my issue with the reboot hanging appears to have something to do with a quota set on a dedup file system. surprise there.
[21:13:45] <gavino> interesting
[21:14:23] <effnorwood> gavino: i point that out because Mike uses his hosts file a lot and explains what he's doing
[21:14:57] <gavino> ah ok
[21:15:08] <Triskelios> gavino: the IPv6 transition is already under way, there are plenty of production networks now
[21:15:08] <gavino> nice
[21:15:32] <gavino> if I use ipv6 what about connecting to ipv4 networks?
[21:16:04] <gavino> I need to read a good tutorial on networking and ipv6

[21:51:57] <jthunder> I am thinking about upgrading an opensolaris box which has been built on an AMD (operton 165 / nvidia chipset) to a new Intel CPU (i5 platform). Is there any way that I can use my existing installation and somehow port it to the new platform?
[21:52:24] *** doug_ndndn has quit IRC
[21:52:44] *** Mazon has joined #opensolaris
[21:52:48] <jthunder> I have a lot of customization and tweaking that would be nice to port over.
[21:53:19] <lattera> are your customizations/tweaks using opcodes specific to that processor?
[21:53:34] <lattera> seems like if your code's compiled for x86, it should work on x86 hardware
[21:54:13] *** ApOgEE__ has joined #opensolaris
[21:54:31] <TomJ> jthunder: just move the HDD(s) over. it'll boot fine
[21:55:03] <jthunder> Tomj: so all of the hardware drivers and things that would be needed are already installed?
[21:55:10] <TomJ> as long as all the new hardware is supported, of course
[21:55:15] <TomJ> yeah I thik all drivers are always installed
[21:55:16] <jthunder> nice
[21:55:29] <TomJ> you could always add more from driver disk/cd if some were required
[21:55:58] <jthunder> supported hardware is the trick I guess - now to look for compatibility
[21:56:02] <jthunder> thanks!
[21:56:13] <TomJ> That's generally the case for most non-Windows OS' - they all have all the drivers all the time, as modules that are loaded dynamically when needed
[21:56:14] <Triskelios> some drivers are not installed by default, but you can pkg install them (if you have networking)
[21:56:50] <TomJ> look up the HW in advance and if it needs packages that you don't have, pkg install them before moving the HDD
[21:56:53] <Triskelios> you may have to reimport the root pool after moving the disk - a live CD/USB would be needed
[21:56:59] <TomJ> I think the pkg will install even if hte HW is not installed
[21:57:14] <Triskelios> correct
[21:57:30] <TomJ> Triskelios: why? The disks themselves are tagged, right? That's how OS can find the disks even if you move them about, order is unimportant
[21:58:14] *** disharmo1y has quit IRC
[22:00:27] <Triskelios> TomJ: the kernel unfortunately still needs the full boot device path - it uses this instead of probing every disk looking for the root pool
[22:01:46] <TomJ> oh, where is that specified?
[22:01:52] <TomJ> I mean which file
[22:03:07] <Triskelios> it's in the metadata for the root pool, and I believe it's extracted by GRUB
[22:03:10] <TomJ> OK, another package confusion, on Sun Studio. Two packages listed:
[22:03:12] <TomJ> developer/sunstudio 12.1.1-0.111 known -----
[22:03:13] <TomJ> sunstudio 12.1.1-1 known --r--
[22:03:27] <TomJ> that r in sunstudio means 'renamed, a form of obsoletion', implying I should use the top one. but it has a lower version number?
[22:03:37] *** gswain has joined #opensolaris
[22:03:46] <TomJ> admittedly a very small difference in version, but still

[22:07:01] <Triskelios> TomJ: I don't think there are any version number constraints across renamed packages.. at any rate, the renamed package is just a stub

[22:07:23] <Triskelios> balrog: use the text installer or AI image
[22:07:26] <TomJ> Triskelios: sorry you mean the top one, developer/sunstudio is a stub?
[22:07:57] <Triskelios> TomJ: no, sunstudio at 12 dot 1.1-1
[22:08:12] <Triskelios> TomJ: it should just be a dependency on the first package now
[22:08:23] <richlowe> all the sunstudio packages are, ultimately, the same thing, I think.
[22:08:23] <balrog> Triskelios: there was a way to get the channel bot to tell you where to go to get the info
[22:08:23] <TomJ> so installing either gives the same result?
[22:09:32] <Triskelios> TomJ: correct

[22:10:21] <bda> But, probably.
[22:10:35] <TomJ> in b134, do I need to manually install software with pkg in every zone, or will installing it in the global also install it into zones?
[22:10:46] <wdp> allright. with xen i can loop devices through, right? so i could use a virtualized linux just to access my dvb-t card by using xen

[23:16:50] <axisys> gavino: explain it .. top or prstat ?
[23:18:12] <Triskelios> axisys: because of the way top polls the process table, it doesn't seem to catch short-lived processes for one

[23:29:32] <gavino> bunch of stuff
[23:30:16] <Triskelios> someone has patches to package 8.4: http://cr.opensolaris.org/~hlipa/sfwnv-pg84/
[23:31:29] <Triskelios> oh wait, they were integrated
[23:31:49] <gavino> dev repo?
[23:32:22] <gavino> ;)
[23:32:24] <gavino> silly me
[23:32:26] <Triskelios> yes
[23:32:28] <gavino> on basic repo
[23:32:37] <gavino> wow opensolaris is quite nice

[23:40:16] *** gm152 has joined #opensolaris
[23:40:16] <TomJ> datadigger: oh, that is SXCE for SPARC?
[23:40:29] <TomJ> Netwolf ^^^
[23:40:39] <datadigger> TomJ: Yes
[23:40:58] <TomJ> It's Netwolf who wanted it, I'm sure he'll be very grateful datadigger :)
[23:41:37] <wdp> if i use raidz for 3 500gb discs, do i have 1 TB data to use?
[23:41:40] <wdp> like in raid 5?
[23:41:47] <datadigger> TomJ: oh, ok. I tend to read scrollbacks a little too fast :) Netwolf: have fun !
[23:41:48] <wdp> or do i have to use raidz2?
[23:42:02] <TomJ> wdp: yes
[23:42:06] <Stric> wdp: raidz1 will give you 1T, raidz2 will give you 0.5T
[23:42:19] <Netwolf> TomJ: cool. thanks
[23:42:21] <wdp> could someone tell me the differences between raidz and raidz2?
[23:42:31] <Stric> about the same as raid5 vs raid6
[23:42:31] <TomJ> wdp: yes to the first question that is. you dont want to use raidz2 with 3 drives, beause that uses 2 disks of redundnacy, which would be like a three-way mirror, but slower
[23:42:34] <wdp> AAAAnd: is it possible to start with 1 500 gb disc and hotadd the other two discs later?
[23:42:35] * Netwolf downloads b130
[23:42:48] <TomJ> wdp: raidz / raid5 is one disk o redundnacy, raidz2/ raid6 is two disks of redundancy
[23:42:55] <TomJ> wdp: no
[23:43:01] <wdp> mhm.
[23:43:10] <Stric> wdp: well.. you can.. but not easily. needs some juggling etc.
[23:43:10] <TomJ> not in raidz/raidz2 anyway. you can make a single disk into a mirror
[23:43:20] <wdp> well im trying to migrate from linux
[23:43:22] <TomJ> Stric: oh?
[23:43:26] <wdp> thing is, i dont know where to temp store my data
[23:43:27] <sstallion_work> hrm
[23:43:30] <wdp> (around 400 gb)
[23:43:35] <sstallion_work> I thought re-distribution was not allowed for SXCE?
[23:43:44] <TomJ> wdp: no other drive available? you can buy a 500GB internal or external pretty cheap
[23:43:55] <Stric> TomJ: put data on single disk.. then create a degraded raidz1 with 2 disks + missing.. copy stuff over, then put the original disk into the raidz
[23:43:57] <TomJ> sstallion_work: probably not no. let Netwolf get it before you report them :)
[23:43:58] <wdp> currently running sw raid 5 here. so i need two discs for the raid 5 and i could have a spare 500 gb disc (where i wanted to install osol on)
[23:43:59] <datadigger> wdp: I bought 3 500 GB USB disks for migration purposes. They're not expensive.
[23:44:12] <TomJ> Stric: nice
[23:44:19] * sstallion_work shrugs.
[23:44:23] <system5_> Can you add SXCE snv_89 ? I have 128, 129, 130, but 89 is the build that Joyent uses, lets you compile on the same build at home then upload to a Joyent accelerator
[23:44:25] <wdp> datadigger, 40-70 euro here i guess. (sata 2 500 gb around 40 euro)
[23:44:26] <Stric> degraded by using a sparse file, then remove it
[23:44:27] <sstallion_work> Its a self correcting problem. SXCE is dead.
[23:44:32] <sstallion_work> (like it or not)
[23:44:40] <wdp> wouldnt call that cheap :p
[23:44:40] <datadigger> wdp: yep.
[23:44:45] <TomJ> sstallion_work: yeah, Netwolf wanted XSun and something later than Solaris
[23:44:57] <sstallion_work> why bother with XSun?
[23:45:42] <TomJ> some SPARC graphic card I think, not supported by x86
[23:45:44] <CosmicDJ> system5_: why don't you just compile your stuff on solaris10 (or 9, that should work for sure on snv_89)?
[23:45:50] <TomJ> XOrg
[23:46:00] <system5_> that might work
[23:46:05] <sstallion_work> TomJ: well... the universal solution applies: buy supported hardware ;)
[23:46:13] <sstallion_work> its pretty trivial to find a supported framebuffer and install it
[23:46:23] <sstallion_work> (not to mention cheap)
[23:46:44] <system5_> my SXCE collection is pretty random as I wasn't a connoiseur on which builds were better than others
[23:46:47] *** Animal-X has quit IRC
[23:46:59] <TomJ> sstallion_work: ok, well tell Netwolf :)
[23:47:05] *** ahe_ has quit IRC
[23:47:15] <Netwolf> sstallion_work: xvr-1200 was supported hardware :)
[23:47:25] <sstallion_work> Netwolf: its not anymore. Find a new one.
[23:47:27] <wdp> well, will 2 discs work?
[23:47:28] <Netwolf> not, unfortunately on, opensolaris
[23:47:38] <TomJ> I have a SXCE b99 home file server with a 2 disk rpool, and a 14 disk raidz2 data pool. Can I fairly painlesslty upgrade to b134, in a separate boot environment?
[23:48:02] <sstallion_work> I believe alanc has a list floating somewhere of supported devices on X.org
[23:48:11] <sstallion_work> I would highly recommend picking one up if you plan on using OpenSolaris
[23:48:20] <sstallion_work> SXCE isn't a solution
[23:48:54] * alanc gave it in channel a couple hours back, before going off to do real work and to avoid having to see people discussing license violating SXCE redistribution...
[23:49:06] *** doug_ndndn has quit IRC
[23:49:10] <system5_> Anybody else besides me miss the fact that packages in the new Indiana builds don't have a stock ticker symbol in front of them anymore
[23:49:21] <alanc> [13:40] <alanc> on SPARC, all graphics are unsupported except for one PCI card (XVR-100) and two PCI-E cards (XVR-300 & XVR-2500) and some service processors built in to Sun servers
[23:49:39] <system5_> made it easy for me to tell which packages were from blastwave, which ones were from sunfreepack, etc. etc.
[23:49:47] <sstallion_work> alanc++
[23:49:57] * CosmicDJ points alanc to http://mirror.cogentco.com/pub/misc/ ; solaris10 patch clusters for free
[23:50:12] *** Japsu has left #opensolaris
[23:50:15] <system5_> putting the vendor's stock ticker symbol (or a fake one) made it easy for me to sort packages by origin using regular expressions
[23:50:35] <alanc> sadly (or fortunately depending on your point of view), I have no idea who to report Oracle license violations to
[23:50:35] <Netwolf> CosmicDJ: cool. Thanks
[23:50:59] <CosmicDJ> share the wealth
[23:51:15] <Netwolf> exactly. For the fear of being kicked. Fuck Oracle.
[23:51:16] <TomJ> system5_: well I've jst been installing plenty that have SUNW.. like SUNWgnu-findutils, SUNWgnu-coreutils, etc, whih aren't installed in a zone automatically
[23:51:18] <alanc> system5: the replacement for that is the publisher name in the full pkg fmri: pkg://opensolaris.org/x11/server/xorg at 1 dot 7.4,5.11-0.134:20100302T074016Z
[23:51:25] <Netwolf> sad, as I used to work at Sun in 2000
[23:51:32] *** Netwolf was kicked by sstallion_work (request processed)
[23:51:36] <TomJ> is ther e a way to change the packages that are installed by default in a new zone?
[23:51:40] *** Netwolf has joined #opensolaris
[23:51:43] <Netwolf> hehe
[23:51:45] <sstallion_work> Netwolf: keep it civil.
[23:52:00] * Netwolf shrugs and agrees
[23:52:59] <Netwolf> at least pca is getting solaris 10 patches a day old. Someone still works at sun? on solaris. Cool
[23:53:35] <Triskelios> system5: the publisher name is part of package metadata now
[23:53:37] <gavino> whats a retard easy ftp server for opensol?
[23:53:37] <system5_> yeah, since I've been using opensolaris since 2008.05, all my shell scripts for using "pkg install" and sed, awk, perl, etc. to set up a certain kind of customized environment will probably be broken in the new build, but I'm just happy that OpenSolaris is still kicking around in some form or another
[23:53:39] <gavino> <--retard
[23:53:46] <gavino> vsftpd on linux my usual route
[23:53:58] <Netwolf> I used to like pureftpd
[23:54:01] <Triskelios> system5: (including the fmri)
[23:54:20] <system5_> still too happy to really complain, except for that Nvidia MVP67 driver alias that has been missing since 2008.... grrrrrrrrr
[23:54:28] <TomJ> Is upgrading from SXCE b99 (installed on ZFS) to OS b134 a simple process?
[23:54:55] <sstallion_work> TomJ: you have to re-install.
[23:55:05] <CosmicDJ> TomJ: since you can't use the iso to upgrade (IIRC), I don't think so
[23:55:18] <TomJ> sstallion_work: completely from scratch? I lose everything on rpool?
[23:55:25] <alanc> system5: if you pkg install the SUNW* name, the pkg repo will look up the mapping to the new name and install the right package for you, since IPS tracks package renaming
[23:55:34] <system5_> gavino- WU-FTP is a retard easy FTP server for opensolaris
[23:55:47] <Triskelios> system5: I would bug the assigned engineer about the driver alias...
[23:55:51] <wdp> will zfs raidz work with only two discs, if i add a third later?
[23:56:03] <wdp> like a degraded raid 5
[23:56:05] <sstallion_work> TomJ: yes. there is no upgrade path from SXCE.
[23:56:10] <system5_> gavino- the only problem I had with WU-FTP was getting chroot FTP to work in a zone, I had to do zoneadm ready and then run the command to create the chroot from the global zone
[23:56:14] <TomJ> wdp: yes, I think that is what Stric was describing to me earlier. you start with a degraded raidz, because one disk is missing, and add it later
[23:56:39] <TomJ> sstallion_work: ok thanks. but my non-rpool ZFS sets will import fine, right? and then I can upgrade their zpool/zfs version
[23:56:41] <sstallion_work> jmcp: ping.
[23:56:44] <wdp> TomJ, if you got that "description" could u paste it to me or point me to the docu if you got some link for me?
[23:56:51] <sstallion_work> TomJ: should be fine.
[23:57:21] <TomJ> wdp: There are links to documentation in the topic. and do man zpool. or ask Stric. I haven't done it specifically myself.
[23:57:29] <wdp> ic.
[23:57:42] <TomJ> You should do 1 & 2 before 3
[23:57:56] <wdp> my last solaris try was ago a year i think or maybe ago 2 years
[23:57:57] <gavino> is wu-ftp in packages?
[23:57:58] <gavino> hmm
[23:57:59] <system5_> gavino- WU-FTPd comes with Solaris and OpenSolaris by default, anything else you'll have to compile from source or use blastwave then change your path to put /opt/csw (definitely not for non-experienced users)
[23:58:04] <wdp> let's see how osol looks now :)
[23:58:05] <gavino> pkg search -a ftp
[23:58:09] <gavino> oh
[23:58:11] <system5_> wu-ftp comes with OpenSolaris pre installed
[23:58:15] <gavino> how nice
[23:58:22] <johannes> 1 & 2 == 0
[23:58:29] <sstallion_work> system5_: what?
[23:58:31] <Triskelios> TomJ: there are some instructions on installing osol on the same root pool as SXCE, but it is tricky
[23:58:34] <sstallion_work> in.ftpd is not WU-ftpd
[23:58:49] <Netwolf> sstallion_work: thank you. I remember that
[23:59:16] <system5_> run this command gavino: svcs ftp
[23:59:21] <system5_> and what is your output ?
[23:59:23] <TomJ> Triskelios: ok I probably won't bother then, I'll just copy stuff I need from rpool to my other pool, and trash rpool. Only challenge will be working out which 2 of my 16 disks comprise rpool :) I will likely unplug the other 14 to avoid any chance of mistake when installing
[23:59:29] <TomJ> thanks
[23:59:29] <Netwolf> I remember hacking wu-ftpd in my early programming days in university. God know how many times the poor wu-ftpd found itself in hot waters
[23:59:36] <gavino> STATE STIME FMRI
[23:59:36] <gavino> disabled 14:50:39 svc:/network/ftp:default
