[00:00:02] <gosx> 28,400 interrupts/second
[00:01:44] <stallion_work> gosx: enable jumbo frames and/or LSO if possible
[00:02:14] <stallion_work> I'm trying to remember what device bnx was... was that a broadcom 10gbe?
[00:02:23] *** Apsu has quit IRC
[00:02:31] <lewellyn> broacom netextreme iirc
[00:02:37] *** Apsu has joined #opensolaris
[00:02:39] <lewellyn> if i could type ;)
[00:03:00] <gosx> it's the cheapo broadcom adapter (1gbit) that comes on dell servers these days
[00:03:01] <lewellyn> jbit: so, if you were me, would you remove the packageset i specified? ;)
[00:03:08] <stallion_work> gotcha
[00:03:14] *** achester has quit IRC
[00:03:29] <gosx> so you think jumbo frames and checksum offload might lower cpu load
[00:03:37] <gosx> (neither is enabled right now)
[00:03:37] <stallion_work> gosx: not much you can do other than do what I mentioned above; you're beating the crap out of your ISR which is going to create high sys load
[00:03:44] <gosx> k
[00:03:44] <stallion_work> gosx: yes.
[00:03:46] <gosx> tyvm
[00:03:55] <stallion_work> LSO is not checksum offload
[00:04:02] <stallion_work> LSO == Large Segment Offload
[00:04:08] <stallion_work> I'm not sure what features the driver supports
[00:04:13] *** palowoda has quit IRC
[00:04:33] <stallion_work> jumbo frames are only going to help if other link partners support them as well
[00:04:47] *** jv_ has quit IRC

[00:06:38] *** FireflyST has joined #opensolaris

[00:06:51] *** eleusis has joined #opensolaris
[00:06:52] *** eleusis has joined #opensolaris
[00:06:59] <lewellyn> (and you have to use a legacy network adapter)
[00:07:51] <lewellyn> i'm not sure who's at fault with that, but i don't like bridging guests to a nic used by the host with any virt platform though. so i've not even started investigating.
[00:08:15] <lewellyn> System Configuration: Microsoft Corporation Virtual Machine
[00:08:28] *** MuffiXXL has quit IRC
[00:09:07] <lewellyn> jbit: also, if you have multiple osol guests, do yourself a favor and install a proxy of some sort ;)
[00:09:41] *** palowoda has joined #opensolaris
[00:09:57] <lewellyn> i've not yet set one up which can be used as an origin server, but polipo in a windows vm (using a paravirtualized nic) is my choice for a regular proxy :)
[00:10:21] *** achester has joined #opensolaris
[00:10:58] <jbit> nah it'll only be one guest
[00:10:58] <lewellyn> you could also use a paravirt nic in linux, but the idea is to try to keep as much traffic within the vm network as possible. that seems to increase performance for the legacy nic for some weird reason.
[00:11:02] <lewellyn> k
[00:11:24] *** Thrae has joined #opensolaris
[00:11:37] <lewellyn> so yeah. just make sure you dedicate a nic to the external network for use by the guests :)
[00:11:38] *** perlmongo has joined #opensolaris
[00:11:48] <lewellyn> otherwise, it runs sweet
[00:11:51] <jbit> the machine currently runs opensolaris only, but it'd be awesome to have windows running on it for graphics stuff
[00:12:22] <lewellyn> yeah. you need to use a full windows server sku for that, probably :(
[00:12:23] *** MuffiXXL has joined #opensolaris
[00:13:02] <lewellyn> i'm not sure if i have any spare keys i could transfer to you atm. probably not right now :(
[00:14:06] *** ewdafa has quit IRC

[00:14:57] <jbit> hopefully :)
[00:14:58] <lewellyn> in fact, it'll be nice to have when the cifs stuff starts doing dfs :)
[00:15:46] <lewellyn> only gotcha with 2k8r2 is that tsclient has a corrupt mouse cursor. i should see if upgrading tsclient helps
[00:15:52] <lewellyn> the version shipped is ancient :P

[00:29:22] <nikolam> eviljames, latest is 3.1.6

[00:29:44] <nikolam> lewellyn, and SAS controller?

[00:30:14] <lewellyn> there was something else i saw but i don't remember what

[00:31:50] <lewellyn> that's a whole cpu for a shell!
[00:32:44] * lewellyn wonders which shell that is...

[00:33:22] *** moepmoep has joined #opensolaris

[00:33:51] <lewellyn> and that's on a v100
[00:33:51] <nikolam> and its not death eather, lewellyn ,)
[00:34:18] <stallion_work> smrt: explain why you consume so much cpu time
[00:34:19] <smrt> Um. I seem to not know anything about why you consume so much cpu time...
[00:34:20] <lewellyn> i'm more concerned about a ksh93 running as me, spawned by init, using a whole core of a beefyish x86 cpu ;)
[00:34:31] *** bklang has joined #opensolaris

[00:34:50] <lewellyn> oh nice!
[00:34:56] <lewellyn> yes. my login shell is ksh93
[00:36:31] <stallion_work> lewellyn: thats just... masochistic
[00:37:30] <lewellyn> isn't that beautiful?
[00:38:31] <lewellyn> let's see what happens if i kill it :P
[00:39:00] <lewellyn> my cpu usage plummeted. *shrug*
[00:39:33] <stallion_work> interesting
[00:39:54] <stallion_work> you don't see a SIGFPE very often anymore - most people have figured out how to write floating point code properly ;)
[00:40:11] <lewellyn> yeah. it may be a shell i was playing in the other day
[00:40:28] <lewellyn> i was doing some not nice shell tricks ;)

[02:13:52] <lewellyn> i'm not sure if website-discuss is the proper place to poke :P
[02:13:56] <richlowe> lewellyn: *however* transmission claims to ask some UPnP thing to forward ports, and *succeed*
[02:13:58] <lewellyn> richlowe: i get Access denied on all mine
[02:14:02] <alanc> I'm sure the datacenter move is also blocking updates to the repos
[02:14:08] <richlowe> whatever "some UPnP thing" is, it sure isn't acting as a gateway.
[02:14:12] <richlowe> at least, not one to the outside world.

[02:22:23] *** scott__ has joined #opensolaris
[02:22:53] <alanc> wasn't planning on it, figured documenting it in developer-opensolaris-x11.mf would be enough
[02:23:01] <lewellyn> heh
[02:23:19] <lewellyn> i meant a howto of sorts
[02:24:04] <alanc> well, and eventually in the gate README as "pkg install developer/opensolaris/x11 to get the dependencies needed to build X"
[02:24:39] <lewellyn> oh crap. i gotta build a new awn to build the new awn-extras. lame.
[02:24:45] *** EugeneKay is now known as EugeneKaway
[02:25:58] <alanc> except that it gets much easier if you don't try to start on snv_109 to install IPS snv_134 - doing it from a snv_130 BE on the SVR4 side went much much easier
[02:26:13] <lewellyn> his blog assumes your disk has free slices :P
[02:26:28] *** ottom has joined #opensolaris
[02:27:11] <alanc> yeah, my problem was I nuked the snv_130 BE to free the slice for the IPS BE
[02:27:19] <richlowe> Surely everyone used live upgrade?
[02:27:22] <richlowe> so they do have free slices.
[02:27:35] <lewellyn> richlowe: lu on zfs root only uses one slice, no?
[02:27:37] <richlowe> (can they really not share an rpool?)
[02:28:21] <alanc> ended up having to use luupgrade to move the snv_109 UFS BE to the slice as a new zfs rpool, then luupgrade it to snv_130 and then reuse the old snv_109 slice for the IPS BE
[02:28:33] <richlowe> lewellyn: I assumed they could share an rpool, in that instance.
[02:28:41] <richlowe> create root fs, image-create in it, blah blah blah.
[02:29:24] <richlowe> now I'm wondering why they can't.
[02:29:33] <lewellyn> richlowe: yeah. i've not tried building a BE from scratch and i've not seen a blog that doesn't take the shortcut of lucreating
[02:29:41] <lewellyn> also, image-create?
[02:29:47] <lewellyn> oh. pkg
[02:30:59] <richlowe> alanc: You seem motivated to give it a shot...
[02:31:10] <richlowe> I mean, you did it so recently, it's all fresh in the mind, right?
[02:31:12] <lewellyn> i mean, it'd certainly be convenient if i could just jump on over to indiana from sxce by making a new BE from scratch. (in comparison to a fresh install)
[02:31:37] <alanc> I've blogged once this year already - that makes me already tied with my total blog posts for last year - wouldn't want to go over my quota
[02:31:59] <richlowe> lewellyn: I filed: #5840, way too long ago

[02:43:30] <richlowe> alanc: Yeah, you may want to make sure /usr/bin precedes /usr/gnu/bin, then.
[02:43:36] <alanc> du -h says 103M for the webrev - I'll refain from posting that one to cr.opensolaris.org
[02:43:40] <richlowe> or, alternatively, do the inverse and try and figure out *why* it's sucking.
[02:43:45] <alanc> richlowe: it always does in my path
[02:44:00] <richlowe> alanc: *some* of us move with the times!
[02:44:12] <snuff-work> 103mb.. impressive..
[02:44:25] <alanc> took about 10 minutes for webrev to generate it
[02:44:32] <richlowe> that's not so bad.
[02:44:44] <alanc> it's a really really really boring change though
[02:45:13] <alanc> s/Copyright .* Sun/Copyright ... Oracle/g on the entire gate
[02:45:25] <richlowe> Why not do it the way ON is, as-needed?
[02:45:34] <richlowe> also, have you been bitten by the lack of double-spacing yet?
[02:46:01] <alanc> because it was easy to script and I got tired of people complaining about having to do it manually, or having to explain to them what to do
[02:46:20] <snuff-work> but do they have correct start dates?
[02:46:41] <richlowe> start dates should be easy
[02:46:49] <richlowe> alanc: (you're still in teamware, right?)
[02:46:57] <alanc> nope, hg
[02:46:59] <snuff-work> or since sun helped build it.. its blanket ?
[02:47:03] <richlowe> then slightly less easy
[02:47:30] <alanc> but just changing the paths to the TW & hg masters in JBeck's startdate script was easy
[02:48:03] *** Amse is now known as jazpexxx
[02:48:14] <alanc> also, since X is SFW/JDS style, most of the real sources are in *.tar.bz2 files, not directly in the gate - it's mostly the makefiles & pkg files in our gate
[02:48:46] <alanc> which is why it's 925 files, not 10000
[02:51:00] <snuff-work> ah least u didn't have to make the script.. so it wasn't hugely tedious for you...

[03:00:50] <Spencer_tt> so what's desktop modernisation all about at opensolaris
[03:01:49] <lewellyn> i still want to see how much work compiling olvwm would be :)

[03:02:26] <Spencer_tt> remember I have no idea what I'm getting into as a random chatter :)
[03:03:23] <alanc> desktop modernisaton? what's that?
[03:03:47] <Spencer_tt> no idea
[03:03:52] <joshua_> opensolaris's desktop has been modernized from sysvinit to smf ;)
[03:04:35] <Spencer_tt> hmm
[03:04:56] <lewellyn> i love the olvwm faq, btw. it's ten years old now...
[03:05:22] <lewellyn> I can't apply the patches using the Solaris patch utlity. What do I do?
[03:05:23] <lewellyn> The version of patch that ships with Solaris is about 10 years old. It's basically worthless. You need to get a newer version of patch. One place to get it is here.
[03:05:27] <alanc> ah, figured you had some reason for asking, but if not... then "desktop modernization" must be a project you just invented
[03:05:37] <Spencer_tt> it looks kinda dated
[03:05:44] <lewellyn> How do I run OLVWM instead of that abominable CDE?
[03:05:54] <lewellyn> Spencer_tt: it's a clone of an old sun window manager
[03:06:02] <Spencer_tt> there should be command somewhere :)
[03:06:02] <lewellyn> of COURSE it looks dated
[03:06:11] <alanc> lewellyn: we finally fixed patch a few builds ago when I convinced comay to ln -s /usr/gnu/bin/patch /usr/bin/patch
[03:06:27] <lewellyn> yeah. :P
[03:06:31] <lewellyn> Where do I find the olgx (OPEN LOOK graphics) library?
[03:06:44] * lewellyn looks at alanc... will i have a problem with this? :(
[03:06:48] *** W0rmDrink has joined #opensolaris
[03:07:00] <richlowe> lewellyn: think so
[03:07:23] <alanc> olgx? looks like a typo for olga or ogl (opengl)
[03:07:28] <Spencer_tt> I think some awe will be in order
[03:07:40] <alanc> fortunately, even for an oldtimer like me, OpenLook is before my time
[03:07:43] <lewellyn> alanc: openlook graphics
[03:07:46] <Spencer_tt> or should I say would be :D
[03:07:49] <richlowe> alanc: sure, sure
[03:08:16] * lewellyn decides to say fuck it and writes a quick-n-dirty spec to see what wonderful way the compile fails
[03:08:37] <alanc> the packages for it are currently not in any repo, because no one ever wanted it in one
[03:09:01] <alanc> there will always be S10 branded zones for that if you must
[03:09:25] <lewellyn> so it's not worth my time? :P
[03:09:39] <lewellyn> is xview around still? :P
[03:10:01] <alanc> I think the source is out there on the net somewhere
[03:10:22] <lewellyn> ftp.x.org
[03:10:30] <lewellyn> so xview isn't packaged
[03:10:39] <lewellyn> is scott oaks still at sun/oracle? ;)
[03:10:40] <Spencer_tt> can you assign video ram for use in a branded zone
[03:10:58] <alanc> as for your time, that's up to you - certainly more likely that you could build a spec and get it into /contrib than we convince a lawyer to dust off the filing cabinets to check the ancient license scrolls
[03:11:33] *** scott__ has quit IRC
[03:11:35] <richlowe> assuming you have what you'd like the license to be identified, dip them in water to get blank paper, then inscribe with a magic marker. :)
[03:12:04] <lewellyn> yeah. it'd be kinda neat seeing olwm in contrib is the only reason i've kept this in the back of my head
[03:13:09] <lewellyn> olwm died with S8, right?
[03:13:18] <alanc> sounds right
[03:14:18] <lewellyn> oh wow. there's an openlook project on sourceforge
[03:15:53] <lewellyn> this may actually be a kind of fun little thing to do.
[03:17:47] <lewellyn> it looks like someone actually updated olwm too... how weird.
[03:20:03] <Spencer_tt> are you sure it's not a porting bot
[03:20:36] <lewellyn> pretty sure. these aren't exactly the same as the X11R5 contrib sources. someone poked at it to make it happier with R6
[03:21:06] *** bubbva has quit IRC
[03:23:09] <lewellyn> there are R3 directions... O_o
[03:24:33] <lewellyn> NO
[03:24:37] <lewellyn> stupid caps
[03:24:55] <Spencer_tt> please go on
[03:24:55] <lewellyn> In order to run under Release 3, you must
[03:24:55] <lewellyn> define the PRE_R4_ICCCM compile-time flag (see config/XView.cf)
[03:24:55] <lewellyn> and the set resource, xview.icccmcompliant, to False in the
[03:24:56] <lewellyn> .Xdefaults file (see the xview man page).

[03:28:51] <lewellyn> i also kind of wonder if the xviewbugs at Eng dot Sun.COM alias still exists ;)
[03:28:52] <alanc> I remember seeing XSunExt.h once and being unable to figure out what it was for
[03:29:06] <lewellyn> apparently for internationalization
[03:29:20] *** dmarkey has joined #opensolaris
[03:29:20] <lewellyn> at least that's what i appear to be losing without it
[03:29:22] <alanc> xviewbugs at eng dot .. User unknown
[03:29:25] <lewellyn> heh
[03:29:45] *** nikolam has quit IRC
[03:29:49] <alanc> oh, probably got replaced when we moved to X11R7 Xlib then
[03:30:32] <lewellyn> yeah. i'll look at what it's trying to find in a moment :)
[03:31:10] <alanc> ah, it used to be in our source under xc/programs/imserver/htt/XSunExt.h - but that all moved to g11n long ago
[03:31:23] <Wes-> IIRC there is an xview build on sunfreeware.com for Solaris 2.5 - should run fine on anything newer (of the same arch) since Sun is so awesome at that backwards comaptibility stuff
[03:31:53] <lewellyn> Wes-: i'm trying to get it into contrib ;)
[03:32:00] <lewellyn> pkg install olwm
[03:32:01] <lewellyn> ;)
[03:33:12] <Wes-> OIC, lol
[03:33:32] <Wes-> That said, 2.5 was X11R5, and Steve is good at keeping sources + build instructions around :)
[03:33:57] <lewellyn> i've got plenty of sources. it's now a matter of getting them into a binary :)
[03:34:15] <lewellyn> you can't just configure && make this
[03:34:28] <lewellyn> Imakefiles galore!
[03:35:16] <Aria> xmkmf -a; make world?
[03:35:23] <jbk> haha does anyone actually use those anymore?
[03:35:47] <lewellyn> jbk: the supported systems include: SparcStation 1, SunOS 4.1.2
[03:35:57] <jbk> haha
[03:36:19] <lewellyn> "Building a lint library is not yet supported."
[03:36:43] <lewellyn> i take that to mean "and it probably never will unless someone talks nice to oracle's lawyers"
[03:36:58] <Wes-> I think the first system I ran xview on was one of those old IPCs, remember them? sun4c, sideways kinda half-pizza box
[03:37:05] <jbk> yep
[03:37:13] <jbk> one was the lab print server in college =]

[03:39:03] <Wes-> Now the internet is so fast, that with well-written apps (emacs) I can't tell the difference between home and work computers half the time!
[03:39:11] <lewellyn> i actually kinda wanted lbx the other day. running an X app over a dozen layers of ssh is painful :P
[03:39:15] <Wes-> I remember when a T1 line would serve 50,000 people
[03:39:19] *** mph has joined #opensolaris
[03:39:29] <jbk> kinda sad the X protocol won out...
[03:39:37] <lewellyn> jbk: over?
[03:39:38] <lewellyn> W?
[03:39:40] <jbk> from what i've read the way news worked seemed much better
[03:39:56] <Wes-> lewellyn: trick - if you can - xhost + the first 'inside the dmz' server and cut down the ssh hops :)
[03:39:58] <lewellyn> news was niche. x wasn't
[03:40:09] <jbk> basically the widgets and such ran on the display, so i would think that the network traffic should be far lower
[03:40:26] <lewellyn> jbk: like rdp? ;)
[03:40:30] <Wes-> NeWS was doomed to fail because it was spelled funny
[03:40:37] <Aria> lewellyn... lbx < nx
[03:40:42] <Wes-> Actually, it was doomed to fail because even on Sun systems it was second-class for daily tasks
[03:40:43] <lewellyn> just like leenoox
[03:40:54] <jbk> i didn't think rdp did that -- it was still sending everything over
[03:41:16] <jbk> like if you clicked, IIRC, you didn't have the traffic to show the clicked and unclicked state of the button over the network
[03:41:16] *** W0rmDrink has quit IRC
[03:41:18] <lewellyn> jbk: it sends a bunch of bitmaps the client can cache for future connections
[03:41:19] <alanc> we still ship lbxproxy, but Xorg doesn't support LBX so it's not very useful
[03:41:29] <alanc> ssh compression beats LBX in many cases
[03:41:35] <Aria> Yeah.
[03:41:37] <jbk> the code running on the display actually did all of that and just sent 'button X click'
[03:41:44] <Aria> Ever used NX though? Man is it fast.
[03:41:47] <lewellyn> alanc: except latency :P
[03:41:50] <jbk> so it was i guess higher level
[03:41:59] <Wes-> ssh compression + LBX should still win, due to the cheating LBX can do
[03:42:14] <lewellyn> Wes-: there was a good page about that a few years ago
[03:42:24] <lewellyn> (circa lbx dying)
[03:42:50] <Wes-> I may have read that. I read a good page on LBX once upon a time, I remember doing it from DEC Alpha, so I know it was a pretty long time ago. :)
[03:42:56] <Wes-> Alpha was run a multia running Redhat 5
[03:43:06] <lewellyn> well, lbx finally died a year or three ago
[03:43:12] <jbk> uugh..
[03:43:27] * jbk remembers trying to install linux on a multia
[03:43:37] <lewellyn> pain in the ass, yes :P
[03:43:56] <jbk> it'd be faster to install gnome over a 300 baud link
[03:43:58] <lewellyn> debian was the worst of the bunch
[03:44:11] <jbk> plus at the time, the alpha port was still very buggy
[03:44:17] <lewellyn> you'd think the debian installer would be faster :P
[03:44:26] <jbk> let alone the sheer number of apps that weren't 64-bit clean
[03:44:40] <lewellyn> i ran linux on sparc briefly around then too
[03:45:06] <lewellyn> my impression is that it's not matured as well as you'd hope since then :P

[04:08:35] <lewellyn> (it's not that old, but still)
[04:08:57] <lewellyn> something's mixing cc and gcc
[04:11:28] *** leito has joined #opensolaris
[04:11:53] <Spencer_tt> now how do you separate the two, by reading the docs?
[04:12:00] <lewellyn> ?
[04:12:01] <Spencer_tt> cc & gcc
[04:12:24] <lewellyn> i changed #define CcCmd gcc to cc
[04:13:40] *** infomomo has quit IRC
[04:13:52] <Spencer_tt> I bet that gets rid of many compile errors, anything else a newbie should do on building with opensolaris
[04:14:17] <lewellyn> i would hope newbies aren't taking 10-15 year old sources and trying to compile them
[04:14:58] <Spencer_tt> they should be building & making other source packages?
[04:15:45] <lewellyn> things which resemble something that's maintained, maybe
[04:17:48] <Spencer_tt> fair enough - how would one fanatic build guis on opensolaris - I'm assuming it's no different from building guis in qt
[04:19:04] <lewellyn> for qt, you need qt first

[04:22:16] <lewellyn> why would it be?
[04:22:56] *** n3kl has joined #opensolaris
[04:23:00] <n3kl> Hello.
[04:23:25] <n3kl> I am having some trouble with my system. I changed some hardware in my system and now the network seems funky. When I boot the system off the live cd, dladm show-link displays the network interface as up, and it gets a dhcp address, as is the default from the live cd. Then when I boot my crumbling system, dladm show-link show all unknown status, and I can no longer do ifconfig nge0. I get interface not found er something.
[04:23:28] <Wes-> lewellyn: x2x works fine, I use it regularly. Cheaper setup than synergy
[04:23:34] <n3kl> Does anyone know how I might clear this up?
[04:23:45] <Wes-> lewellyn: frankly, it should be an opensolaris package if you ask me :)
[04:24:53] <lewellyn> Wes-: i'll make a note ;)
[04:24:55] <Spencer_tt> because I'm assuming the only difference is your build environment with cc as a compiler for one and the build tools
[04:25:15] <Wes-> On solaris 10, you would do a reconfiguration boot to make sure the new hardware was recognized. OTOH, somebody will probably pipe up and say *that's* deprecated too. ;)
[04:25:27] <lewellyn> Spencer_tt: the problem was that Imakefiles are old and crufty
[04:25:31] <Wes-> lewellyn: Ping me if you can't find the sources. I have a 1.27 tarball around here somewhere
[04:26:58] <n3kl> So what might cause the live cd to detect the network interface status, but the booted system to show unknown status?
[04:27:39] <Spencer_tt> so it should be as easy as changing the compiler name from gcc to cc and building non protesting packages to get pkg files at some reasonable rate with a average machine?
[04:30:01] <lewellyn> Spencer_tt: if you're asking about the thing i'm poking at, it's slightly more work than that
[04:30:19] <lewellyn> i'm trying to figure out where /opt/SUNWmotif has moved to right now ;)
[04:30:44] <Spencer_tt> slocate ?
[04:30:44] <alanc> lewellyn: /usr/dt ?
[04:30:54] <alanc> /opt/SUNWmotif sounds pre-CDE integration
[04:32:32] <lewellyn> alanc: i'm poking at stuff in the various x.org contrib dirs ;)
[04:34:09] <lewellyn> Wes-: i found 1.27 :)
[04:34:31] <alanc> I've not verified our current imake config files are sane, wouldn't be surprised to find out we need to fix stuff to get things to build
[04:35:08] <lewellyn> well, contrib stuff isn't really something that x.org cares about :)

[04:47:03] <JonathanYC> Hello :D
[04:47:13] <JonathanYC> I've tried installing the flash plugin, and I've copied the plugin to
[04:47:20] <JonathanYC> /home/jonathan/.mozilla/plugins
[04:47:20] <n3kl> /usr is ro, so could I import my zfs pool, mount the real /usr over top and export the iscsi target?
[04:47:26] <JonathanYC> However, it still fails to load in forefox.
[04:47:28] <Spencer_tt> that's another way to play around without doing anything harmful yep
[04:47:35] <JonathanYC> Does anyone know why this would not be working?
[04:47:46] <alanc> JonathanYC: on recent builds you also need to pkg install medialib
[04:47:53] <JonathanYC> alanc: Thanks :D
[04:47:59] *** tsoome has joined #opensolaris
[04:48:02] <alanc> if you got flash from the extra repo, the pkg dependency would handle it for you
[04:48:11] <JonathanYC> Wait, I can?
[04:48:18] <JonathanYC> Do you know the package name?
[04:48:31] <JonathanYC> I saw a fwflash, but that seems to be a firmware thing
[04:48:39] <JonathanYC> I already installed the extras repository
[04:48:41] <alanc> web/firefox/plugin/flash
[04:49:38] <JonathanYC> wow! Thanks :D
[04:52:22] <Spencer_tt> flash is exciting :D
[04:52:27] <Spencer_tt> * .
[04:53:28] <JonathanYC> Spencer_tt: To be truthful, I would rather do without it... but with all the RIA powered by it nowadays it is hard to let go :(
[04:54:14] <Spencer_tt> hmm if they where programmers with deep pockets they would have done away with it I bet
[04:54:37] <JonathanYC> Heh
[04:54:45] <JonathanYC> Maybe. But for now...

[04:58:09] <lewellyn> ooh. sucessful build. nice... not bad for ancient junk
[05:05:17] <n3kl> How can I mount over top a directory. My mount -o bind is failing me
[05:10:39] <n3kl> Right now I am booted in the live cd. I have rpool/ROOT/opensolaris-1 mounted at /mnt/root. How can I use the iscsi environment from /mnt/root rather than / to get the daemon started so I can connect to it from anothe rsystem and pull the data?

[05:17:06] <Spencer_tt> lewellyn: ancient junk?
[05:17:22] <alanc> figure out what package the font is in, pkg uninstall the package
[05:18:46] <lewellyn> Spencer_tt: xmdiary
[05:19:25] <lewellyn> it was simpler to poke at before looking at xview. same era, so i figured it'd be good knowledge to have an idea of how things have matured since 199x
[05:20:37] <lewellyn> pkgbuild: SFExmdiary.spec(109): Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found
[05:20:41] <lewellyn> almost! :D
[05:21:03] * lewellyn boggles at the empty /usr/include that's sitting in the install dir
[05:21:39] <Spencer_tt> ancient doesn't mean neglected does it
[05:23:05] <lewellyn> oh and this version was released by someone else because the maintainer was unreachable in 1997
[05:23:25] <lewellyn> i'd say that's pretty neglected
[05:23:57] <Spencer_tt> so it helps when there regular looks at code I bet :)

[06:43:37] <lewellyn> i just chose it out of the x.org contrib dir as something simpler than xview to see what may need to be done ;)
[06:43:45] <lewellyn> Beket: displaypostscript

[06:47:31] *** Metamucil has quit IRC
[06:47:41] <JonathanYC> I don't want to learn Flash, as my pockets aren't that deep
[06:47:54] <lewellyn> JonathanYC: RIAs doesn't pull up much useful in the web search thinger
[06:47:55] <JonathanYC> And this channel appears to be non-Java sympathetic ;) So what do you guys suggest?
[06:48:11] <JonathanYC> lewellyn: Web search thinger? Where?
[06:48:17] <lewellyn> bing.com
[06:48:24] <JonathanYC> Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) are web applications that have many of the characteristics of desktop applications, typically delivered either by way of a ...
[06:48:28] <Spencer_tt> flash is for visual designers :p
[06:48:43] <Spencer_tt> usually art students.
[06:49:00] <JonathanYC> Hello again, Spencer_tt :D
[06:49:08] <JonathanYC> Then what do you guys suggest D:
[06:49:12] <Spencer_tt> hi JonathanYC
[06:49:17] <alanc> our UI design people like to mock up stuff in flash, and then give it to the coders to turn into gtk code
[06:49:19] *** Asias has quit IRC
[06:49:21] <Aria> (You can develop for Flash for free. And Flash-the-tool isn't the right tool for making apps.)
[06:50:10] <Spencer_tt> or some guys I've seen do their stuff on paper usually A3 paper or less to graphics or gui
[06:50:22] <JonathanYC> alanc: GTK is a RIA platform now?
[06:50:31] <JonathanYC> Aria: Really? You don't mean openlazslo, do you?
[06:50:41] <alanc> JonathanYC: no, I work in the real desktop software group
[06:50:55] <Aria> No, I mean the free Flex SDK
[06:51:27] <Aria> Flex Builder, the IDE, and Flash, the animation tool cost the usual Adobe $$$
[06:51:27] <Aria> But Flex SDK is free.
[06:51:28] <alanc> though I'm mostly working at a lower level than GTK - down in the guts of X
[06:51:46] *** mph has quit IRC
[06:51:56] <JonathanYC> Aria: Thanks, I'll check that out then :/
[06:52:03] <JonathanYC> Any other suggestions?
[06:52:23] <lewellyn> well i was going to suggest AIR, but Aria kinda did
[06:52:34] <JonathanYC> Heh, I guess that's in then :D
[06:52:40] <Aria> Well, the current sentiment for building web apps is use Javascript and HTML, since it's pretty powerful stuff now.
[06:52:50] <Aria> It's certianly how I'd go.
[06:53:03] <lewellyn> Aria: it has been for a while. people just didn't realize it ;)
[06:53:13] <Aria> Hehe, yeah, yeah.
[06:53:27] <JonathanYC> I'm not sure if I'll be able to write a socket application in puer Javascript and HTML though
[06:53:42] <lewellyn> you'd be surprised :P
[06:54:00] <lewellyn> as long as you don't need to actively listen, you can do lots of stuff
[06:54:18] <lewellyn> and active listening is kind of broken thanks to nat and firewalls
[06:54:44] *** leito has joined #opensolaris
[06:55:13] <JonathanYC> lewellyn: Unfortunately, that's _exactly_ what I need to do :(
[06:55:18] <Aria> Yeah, usually you'd proxy to a server for raw sockets, JonathanYC. Or you'd call out to Flash.
[06:55:45] <Aria> And listening ... ick. That's hard in a browser in any case, since the security model mostly forbids it, flash being slightly more open to it than others.
[06:55:46] <lewellyn> alanc: you like ranting about lawyers... is it likely the oracle lawyers may get miffed about contrib holding a version of the version of xview 3.2 they released many many moons ago?
[06:55:51] <JonathanYC> Aria: I've already tried the first. It worked OK, but not very elegant. The second is not really pure Javasciprt, is it?
[06:56:00] <lewellyn> JonathanYC: it won't work well on the public internet
[06:56:07] <Aria> Yeah, no, but I never said anything about purity.
[06:56:18] <JonathanYC> Heh
[06:56:30] <JonathanYC> Unfortunately, I have to leave now

[08:06:33] <alanc> MouseKeys in keyboard accessibility will make a numpad move the mouse cursor
[08:06:39] <Andys^> lblume: yeah yeah.. noooo idea about europe.
[08:07:08] <lblume> alanc: And they tend to activate by themselves for some reason.....
[08:07:21] <lewellyn> lblume: it'll be made in china anyhow. buy it locally and ship it ;)
[08:07:21] <Beket> alanc, you are the man -- it worked :) Thanks.
[08:07:30] <Beket> lblume, yes! Which is why I asked again
[08:07:42] <alanc> I don't know about that, but you can enable it via a kbd shortcut - ctrl-alt-numlock I think
[08:09:37] <lblume> <ctrl><shift><numlock> it seems. I had no idea. I don't see how Iwould do that combo bymistake.
[08:09:59] <Andys^> lblume: if there's no supermicro distributor in europe then... start one ;)
[08:10:24] <lewellyn> lblume: fat-fingering shift-numlock?
[08:10:52] <lewellyn> ok i have this thing building and packaged. now to see why it won't run
[08:11:00] <lblume> lewellyn: Why would I do <shift><numlock> in the first place? :-)
[08:11:33] <lblume> Andys^: I'm not evenin Europe yet ;-) But I know they have distributors, thanks!
[08:11:34] <alanc> why do keyboards still have numlock keys at all?
[08:11:35] <lewellyn> you tell me ;)
[08:11:42] <lewellyn> alanc: retrogaming
[08:12:17] <alanc> though at least I know what that's supposed to do, unlike the utterly useless scroll lock
[08:12:56] <richlowe> not even retro, pretty sure it's the most logical way to move in, say, angband.
[08:13:36] <lewellyn> richlowe: i actually had nethack in mind
[08:13:44] <alanc> I think any game where your character is drawn on screen as an ascii symbol counts as retro
[08:13:49] <lewellyn> yes
[08:13:51] <lblume> In Deus Ex, it's practical to use the keypad as arrows to move, then turn it into a real keypad to enter keylock combinations
[08:13:58] <lewellyn> ok. anyhow...
[08:13:59] <lewellyn> wtf.
[08:14:08] <madwizard> Coffee
[08:14:13] <lewellyn> /usr/X11/lib/X11/app-defaults is correct, right?
[08:14:26] <alanc> maybe
[08:14:36] <alanc> depends on the build
[08:14:37] <lewellyn> this thing's looking everywhere but there :P
[08:14:57] <alanc> the OS packages install to /usr/share/X11/app-defaults/ now
[08:15:12] <lewellyn> ok. that's one place it's looking
[08:15:22] <lblume> alanc: Thanks a bunch for the shortcut anyway, there's nothing in the shitty gui to even hint there is one that I would have looked for.
[08:15:30] <lewellyn> it's sane to assume that's a good location for 111b too?
[08:15:36] <alanc> I'd have to check the libXt source or docs to find the full search path
[08:15:46] <lewellyn> i think this truss output has it ;)
[08:17:01] <alanc> ah, see the XFILESEARCHPATH entry in X(5) man page
[08:17:34] <alanc> though /usr/etc/X11 there seems wrong
[08:17:46] <lewellyn> that looks a lot like what i was seeing. plus $HOME
[08:18:16] <alanc> $HOME is included in the XUSERFILESEARCHPATH that comes next in the man page
[08:18:23] * lewellyn found /usr/X11/lib/X11/app-defaults on his filesystem first
[08:18:33] <lewellyn> as nasty as it looks, i just used it blindly :P

[08:19:16] <lewellyn> XCMSDB... solaris does Xcms?
[08:19:28] * alanc has gotten lost in the pudding analogies on osol-discuss
[08:19:43] * lewellyn tries to not read osol-discuss

[08:19:55] <alanc> KCMS is long gone
[08:19:57] <lewellyn> but pudding analogies. has anyone invoked bill cosby yet?
[08:20:32] <lewellyn> yeah. it's not like any apps still exist which could really benefit from accurate color :P

[09:29:28] <Cozezien> Has anyone heard of getting HDMI audio output working in opensolaris? I've had a brutal time trying to get it to work (I had a learning experience with boot environments last week ;) )
[09:30:06] <lewellyn> i know my audiohd supports it, but i have no devices with which to hook up to
[09:30:35] <freetown2> BE admins should be able to get HDMI sort out. :P
[09:30:49] <Cozezien> hrmm.. when I run scanpci I can see an audio device for ATI, but I hook up the hdmi to my monitor (which does support it) but no idea comes out
[09:31:08] <Cozezien> err no sound comes out ;)
[09:33:52] *** sickness has quit IRC
[09:35:03] <Cozezien> right now I want to see if anyone even has hdmi audio working before continuing. Is there a way to see if there is audio being sent out to the audio device through console?

[10:35:20] <lewellyn> popster: line 6 of your paste may be relevant
[10:36:19] <palowoda> Maybe your missing berkeley db includes.
[10:37:42] *** ivo_ has joined #opensolaris
[10:37:56] <richlowe> given the fairly spartan use of -I, it's equally likely you have them but g++ can't find them.
[10:38:13] <richlowe> given bdb's history of "compatibility", you may well have several of them. :)
[10:38:34] <popster> Ooooo, sometimes I wonder about my cognitive abilities.
[10:38:40] <ivo_> will b139 be availble tomorow?
[10:43:07] *** patronus has quit IRC
[10:44:05] <lewellyn> ivo_: you mean the ON download? 138 still hasn't managed to figure out how to end up on dlc.sun.com afaik
[10:44:50] *** ewdafa has joined #opensolaris
[10:45:08] *** patronus has joined #opensolaris
[10:45:34] <lewellyn> i certainly don't see 138 on dlc.sun.com yet at least
[10:45:59] <richlowe> as mentioned on whichever list, dlc.sun.com couldn't be updated for a bunch of time.
[10:46:12] <lewellyn> yes.
[10:46:54] <richlowe> but I don't know why the bNNN directories are interesting?
[10:47:43] <lewellyn> bfu archives?

[10:59:26] *** RoyK has joined #opensolaris

[11:00:11] <ivo_> so I guess if anything b138 can be availble tomorow
[11:00:39] <Beket> wrong
[11:01:06] <Beket> /dev releases aren't public until 2010.06 happens
[11:01:20] <lewellyn> b138 will be uploaded to dlc after the datacenter move is done, probably.
[11:01:34] <lewellyn> maybe 139 will show up there at the same time, depending on how long it takes
[11:02:04] <lewellyn> and if you mean the ips repo... you'll end up with 14x surely, once builds to there resume on their normal schedule
[11:02:19] *** wdp_aao has joined #opensolaris
[11:03:24] <ivo_> so it is 2010.06 now, I tought it will be 2010.05

[11:03:34] *** timsf has quit IRC
[11:03:35] <lewellyn> 2010.sometime
[11:03:43] <ivo_> can you give ma (us) a hint why there is a delay

[11:03:56] <lewellyn> read the various mailing lists :P
[11:04:01] <ivo_> :)
[11:04:22] <ivo_> but I guess it is worth to wait a bit
[11:04:55] <lewellyn> well, you're stuck waiting till the release repo gets the stuff backported that's needed for a succesful upgrade
[11:05:05] <ivo_> b134 is working, so ...
[11:05:05] <lewellyn> so better make the most of it ;)
[11:05:49] <ivo_> the only thing I use is netbeans ffox rhythmbox totem and FLDdvd-player :D
[11:06:02] <ivo_> o no I gforgot gedit and vim
[11:06:20] <ivo_> hmm
[11:06:26] <ivo_> it is not possible to make a list ...
[11:06:28] <ivo_> :D
[11:06:48] <ivo_> a lot of virtualization ... :D
[11:07:09] <ivo_> I just hope my zones don't brake, after the update
[11:07:15] <lewellyn> they may.
[11:07:31] <ivo_> :) I know, but I hope they don't
[11:07:39] <ivo_> but I 'll update my databases anyway

[11:41:40] *** _Mario_ has joined #opensolaris
[11:42:12] *** lucalenardi has quit IRC
[11:42:34] <_Mario_> ok, quick question. I know the BrandZ allows to run Linux apps on osol, but the documentation seems to indicate that it's only compatible with RHEL 3.x and kernel 2.4.21 with 32bit apps
[11:42:58] <lewellyn> jbit: blastwave? ;)
[11:43:05] <jbit> lewellyn: you bet :)
[11:43:06] <_Mario_> is that still true or is there some way to run stuff that is availabel for RHEL 4.x or 5.x only? can live with 32bit
[11:43:06] <lewellyn> i keep telling people to ask their channel
[11:43:19] <jbit> lewellyn: well, it's a genrel opensolaris issue
[11:43:29] <lewellyn> jbit: ok. ask #pkg5
[11:43:30] <lewellyn> ;)
[11:43:31] <jbit> i have a few other packages like mplayer from otehr publishers
[11:43:36] <lewellyn> _Mario_: there's a 2.6 brand
[11:43:53] <jbit> _Mario_: i think that's just the "we test this" list
[11:44:13] <jbit> _Mario_: there's partial 2.6 support, and debian and such seem to run somewhat usably
[11:44:45] <jbit> but getting non-redhat distros to install seems to be a bit of a mess
[11:44:52] <_Mario_> well what I need is to just run one app, that has RPM-s available only for 4.x and 5.x both i386 and x86_64
[11:45:33] <jbit> 4.x should work
[11:45:42] <jbit> but i've personally never tried it
[11:45:50] <lewellyn> 4.x does
[11:46:21] <lewellyn> smrt: explain brandz
[11:46:44] *** marshan has left #opensolaris
[11:47:07] <_Mario_> well that's how I got to the admin doc :)
[11:47:11] <lewellyn> _Mario_: i didn't click your link, but i point most people to os.o :)
[11:47:12] <lewellyn> oh
[11:47:42] <_Mario_> the same brandz page lists:
[11:47:42] <_Mario_> please be aware that the lx brand installer currently only supports Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.x and the equivalent CentOS distributions.
[11:48:00] <_Mario_> yeah said page in 2. System Requirements says the above
[11:48:23] <lewellyn> yeah. with lx26, 4.x worked for me
[11:48:50] <_Mario_> ok, lx26 comes by default with 2009.06 or is that an addon (admit, haven't read the install doc to end yet if I need to get it)
[11:49:16] <jbit> i'd love to rip out how brandz does linxu installation
[11:49:24] <jbit> and make it a bit easier to use non-redhat distros
[11:49:46] <lewellyn> jbit: agreed
[11:49:51] <lewellyn> _Mario_: i forget. sorry :(
[11:50:00] <jbit> right now teh scripts make alot of assumptions about files and their contents
[11:50:05] <lewellyn> 2009.06 was a year ago! ;)
[11:50:22] <jbit> woudl be nice to move those off into a python "bootstrap" script or something
[11:50:25] <_Mario_> yeah, but 2009.06 is still sadly the latest release that you install directly :D
[11:50:28] <jbit> so you could modify it per-distro easily
[11:50:31] <lewellyn> jbit: yes :P
[11:50:35] <jbit> _Mario_: eh?
[11:50:44] <_Mario_> or has 2010.03 come out :P
[11:50:45] <jbit> _Mario_: you knwo there are /dev isos right?
[11:50:53] <_Mario_> yeah :D talking about production instances :D

[12:19:10] <Gugge> can i share a slog between multiple pools ?
[12:19:18] <Andys^> Gugge: if you partition it.
[12:19:45] <Gugge> but then i would need it big enough x n :)
[12:20:34] <Gugge> offcause thats no problem right now .. with two pools and a 32GB ssd

[12:30:53] <Andys^> 32gb is way bigger than you need for the avarage fileserver ZIL
[12:31:21] <Andys^> the amount of ZIL that can be used is fixed and based on the size of RAM in the server. so splitting it between pools is fine as long as you split it in a ratio equal to the amount of writing you do to each pool

[13:54:22] <kjetilho> can I influence where interrupts for a PCI card are delivered?
[13:54:27] <kjetilho> is that a BIOS thing?
[13:54:53] <trygvis> you can control if a CPU should handle interrupts or not
[13:55:01] <trygvis> not sure if you can do that for a specific interrupt though
[13:55:02] <kjetilho> all interrupts for mpt and e1000g are delivered to CPU #3
[13:55:28] <kjetilho> not sure if it impacts performance, but I get occasional stalls.
[13:55:42] <kjetilho> so I'm looking for a fix :)
[13:55:56] <trygvis> how do you tell that?
[13:56:07] <kjetilho> 1 in 10 ping responses routinely take 250+ ms
[13:56:27] <tsoome> spikes on intrstat?
[13:56:32] <kjetilho> occasionally, the kernel can get 3 ping requests before answering them
[13:56:36] <trygvis> I meant that CPU #3 handle the interrupt
[13:56:37] <tsoome> e1000g you say? what build?
[13:56:53] <tsoome> e1000g used to have few bugs
[13:56:55] <kjetilho> no obvious spikes on intrstat
[13:57:00] <kjetilho> plain 2009.06
[13:57:19] <tsoome> if im correct, later builds did fix e1000g
[13:57:30] *** MuffiXXL has quit IRC
[13:57:43] <tsoome> you may wanna digg a bit, but id suspect just an buggy driver.
[13:57:48] <kjetilho> hmm. does anyone have any idea when 2010.04 will be out?
[13:58:17] <tsoome> you know oracle wont tell anything. even if you beat them up.
[13:58:21] <kjetilho> perhaps I should try to find a spare NIC in the interim
[13:58:38] <kjetilho> Oracle won't support our old Dell 2850 anyway
[13:59:00] <kjetilho> (plain Solaris is not really an option :)
[13:59:01] <tsoome> why not go for /dev meanwhile=
[13:59:04] <tsoome> ?
[14:00:02] <kjetilho> ok, thanks. so perhaps a month?
[14:00:12] <trygvis> sounds like it
[14:01:58] *** p3rror has joined #opensolaris
[14:02:36] <kjetilho> this server is still running the old iscsi, migrating to Comstar is a bit work, too
[14:02:59] <kjetilho> but of course it needs to be done. and current dev will not break the old zvols, right?
[14:03:14] <kjetilho> like earlier Comstar versions did
[14:03:23] <tsoome> comstar is not default and only one yet
[14:03:28] *** perlmongo has joined #opensolaris
[14:03:39] <tsoome> i mean you can still use old iscsi
[14:03:58] <kjetilho> ok
[14:04:08] <tsoome> but i really dont have enough comstar experience to tell resto of it:D
[14:04:12] <tsoome> rest*
[14:04:52] <tsoome> my last attempt to unstall comstar was hung system and fallback, beadm destoy and new pkg image-update:D
[14:05:32] <tsoome> mostly because comstar guides are not yet updated to new package names etc.
[14:06:25] <kjetilho> the release notes for b134 are a bit daunting
[14:06:33] <kjetilho> lots of "boot into old BE and fix it"
[14:06:36] <tsoome> an im gradually starting to hate pkg:D or at least how they make packages - why the hell i just cant tell pkg install comstar.....
[14:07:07] <chris__> kjetilho, thats why opensolaris is late
[14:07:16] <chris__> too much bugs to fix
[14:07:17] <Shoggoth> does anyone happen to know where the list of supported SCSI adapters is for COMSTAR target mode?

[14:38:18] <tsoome> depends what is your bios date really
[14:38:36] <tsoome> use ntpdate to set correct time then check again
[14:38:47] <Havokmon> Not sure what BIOS date is.
[14:38:48] *** gebi has joined #opensolaris
[14:39:13] <Havokmon> When I use ntpdate, it corrects by 18000s (which is right), but then date shows +18000 again :/
[14:40:03] <Havokmon> It does change, because Dovecot crashes with a 'time moved backwards error', but immediately changes back
[14:40:47] <Havokmon> So that leads me to thing maybe rtc_config should have GMT in it.. ?

[14:46:15] <ionizer> Hi guys, opening a big can of opinion worms here, but I'm looking at using OpenSolaris to serve up 45T of ZFS disks via NFS. I estimate data throughput from ZFS to the NIC to be close to 2Gb/s. The box will do nothing else.
[14:46:53] <ionizer> The question is: How much RAM should I throw at the box to ensure that's not the bottleneck? I don't know anything about the ZFS stack's RAM usage
[14:47:19] *** timsf has joined #opensolaris
[14:47:38] <tsoome> zfs can use almost all of your ram
[14:47:50] <tsoome> and as usual, the more you have the better
[14:48:19] <tsoome> i would assume you will use raidz*?
[14:48:57] <tsoome> parity based raid setups rely heavily on ram.
[14:49:35] <tehhobbit> ionizer: the X4540 from sun with 48x1TB disks and pretty much made for stuff like that comes with 32GB ram
[14:53:04] *** dalibor has joined #opensolaris
[14:53:46] <ionizer> tsoome: yes, certainly raidz
[14:54:08] <ionizer> tehhobbit: thanks, I'm looking through the X4540 specs to see how it compares
[14:54:09] <Havokmon> Well, FYI, I just changed rtc_config to use UTC, and everything is in order now :)
[14:54:27] *** popster has joined #opensolaris
[14:54:44] <ionizer> we'd be relying on a CORAID AoE SAN so I'd have the extra overhead of the CORAID HBA stack

[15:30:23] <Andys^> i think HP's supports 10G, and supermicro does too but only Mellanox 10G sadly

[15:30:53] <taemun> Stric: apologies, I had the two backwards
[15:31:00] <taemun> the second one is titled "Ultrasound in Adult Rodents"
[15:31:04] <Andys^> yeah. its cheaper for a reason :P
[15:31:14] *** jgracin has quit IRC
[15:31:24] <effnorwood> heck yea - our 40GB Mellanox network was vastly cheaper than 10G Ethernet
[15:31:26] <Shoggoth> it's a bit like the business with some women having four colour receptors rather than the three the rest of us get
[15:31:29] <Stric> taemun: ah.. I only looked at the first one..
[15:31:35] <mbreitba> well, the mezzanine cards are identical, they do both 10GB ethernet and 20GB IB
[15:31:49] <Andys^> also, 10G supports usually comes with 2 NICs, so you get 40gbps total throughput full duplex
[15:32:04] <Andys^> yeah well.. it uses the same cables and all
[15:32:19] <mbreitba> but the switch was the deal breaker - the SuperMicro 10GB is a passthrough module, so I'd have to have bought an additional switch
[15:32:33] <mbreitba> the IB just plugged in as a switch, no extra hardware
[15:32:49] <Andys^> oh, you have a supermicro blade?
[15:32:52] <mbreitba> yeah
[15:32:57] <Andys^> cool. what do you think of it?

[15:33:15] <Andys^> literally the main reason i dont have one of those is because of the 10G support. if they made 10G switch standard and used intel nics .....
[15:33:24] <mbreitba> it actually works great on the windows side of stuff
[15:33:25] <Andys^> yeah - basically it works well in linux and shitty elsehwere :|
[15:33:43] <mbreitba> it's working right now really well, and I can push around 1800MB/sec between the two windows blades
[15:33:57] <mbreitba> but the OpenSolaris box is just not accessible
[15:34:19] <mbreitba> opensolaris box is connected to the switch via two CX4 cables, and is going to be our NAS/SAN Head End
[15:34:26] *** ionizer_ has joined #opensolaris
[15:34:26] <Andys^> welp
[15:34:35] <mbreitba> with an eventual move of all of the blades to Xen/VMWare
[15:34:35] <Andys^> you'll prolly have to beg mellanox for better osol drivers
[15:34:49] <taemun> Stric, Shoggoth: I can't find anything more recent than 1967 that talks about this, and tbh anecdotal comments from people on forums saying that they can "feel" utlrasonic alarm systems has about as much credence as my aunt's disposition that mobile phones make her ill
[15:34:49] <Andys^> vmware doesnt support IPoIB though
[15:34:53] <taemun> which is psychosomatic
[15:35:05] <mbreitba> mellanox doesn't provide any drivers for OSOL, OSOL/Solaris built them
[15:35:10] <Andys^> ahh ok :|
[15:36:21] <mbreitba> I'm wondering if Solaris works any better
[15:36:46] *** thepickle has joined #opensolaris
[15:36:47] <Andys^> vmware supports.. NFS or iscsi over 1G or 10Gbe, and fibre channel, SAS, SCSI. and thats it..
[15:36:57] *** dajhorn has joined #opensolaris
[15:37:30] <Andys^> i strongly doubt it
[15:37:45] <Shoggoth> Andys^: you do a lot of ESX/vSphere work?
[15:37:45] <mbreitba> well, vmware is a long-shot for us anyway, the Xen route looks more like what we're going to hit, especially since we're running Hyper-V for a lot of our VM's right now, and the VHD format would be interchangeable
[15:37:46] *** ionizer has quit IRC
[15:37:47] <effnorwood> we have 4 X8DTTs in 2U with QDR Infiniband running snv 131
[15:37:50] <effnorwood> rock
[15:38:25] <Andys^> Shoggoth: indeed
[15:38:33] <mbreitba> effnorwood - do you have a switch that runs the subnet manager, or are you running the subnet manager on one of the systems?
[15:38:56] <Andys^> effnorwood: with what IB HBA?
[15:39:05] <Andys^> oh the built in one
[15:39:05] <effnorwood> mbreitba: subnet manager (opensm - ofed) is running on another box that runs RHEL
[15:39:21] <mbreitba> any windows stuff thrown in the mix?
[15:39:24] <effnorwood> Andys^: the X8DTTs have Mellanox on the MB
[15:39:28] <Andys^> yep
[15:39:42] <Andys^> in the 4-in-2U chassis, right?
[15:39:46] *** z11k_ has quit IRC
[15:39:55] <effnorwood> Andys^: yes
[15:40:04] <Andys^> woo, other supermicro people. i feel amongst friends now :)
[15:40:35] <Andys^> i get slagged pretty badly for recommending supermicro in #vmware :)
[15:40:35] <effnorwood> we need to be cheap and fast
[15:40:46] <Andys^> effnorwood: so what applications are you using that setup for?
[15:40:59] <effnorwood> Andys^: the guys in #vmware are not very nice I agree. talk to them about OpenSolaris!
[15:41:20] <Andys^> to those guys, opensolaris as a NAS is the most ghetto setup since OpenFiler
[15:41:28] *** perlmongo has quit IRC
[15:41:29] <effnorwood> Andys^: we store medical images from things like MRIs and CAT scanners - millions of them

[15:41:33] <Andys^> ahh, ok
[15:41:38]
<mbreitba> I love the supermicro stuff - our whole build is built around supermicro - http://www.zfsbuild.com/
[15:41:56] <Andys^> effnorwood: not just store? if it was just store i'd imagine you have one motherboard and many disks
[15:41:57] <mbreitba> hehe - the VMWare guys will like the new Compellent announcement from yesterday then
[15:42:46] *** dalibor has quit IRC
[15:42:51] *** Asias has quit IRC
[15:42:51] <effnorwood> Andys^: our storage is 10 racks of SM 2U x 24 2.5
[15:43:16] <effnorwood> the X8DTTs are for processing
[15:43:16] <Andys^> ah ok.
[15:43:23] <Andys^> makes sense
[15:43:29] <Andys^> lots of spindles :)
[15:43:45] * Andys^ was quite interested in seagate's 500gb 2.5" SAS
[15:43:49] <mbreitba> effnorwood - what onboard mellanox controller are you using?
[15:44:01] <mbreitba> the add-in card that I'm using is an Infinihost III EX card
[15:44:29] <effnorwood> mbreitba: it's a connectx qdr single port
[15:44:57] <PrestonConnors> effnorwood: Besides what you have just posted in this channel can you provide any more insight into your infrastructure or point to a resource which helped you determine what infrastructure you needed? I am looking to build near the same infrastructure you describe but had some reservations on what hardware to choose to use with OpenSolaris.
[15:45:00] <effnorwood> mbreitba: we're using SRP as the ULP
[15:45:07] <Andys^> interesting reading about the fact that you can't hot swap the networking section of supermicro blade
[15:45:21] <Andys^> thats a good example of why you need two blade chassis :(
[15:45:23] <mbreitba> the connectx stuff works fine with OpenSolaris? I was awful timid about ordering stuff that wasn't on the HCL
[15:45:37] <effnorwood> PrestonConnors: I am a consultant and was hired to design and implement this architecture. You can hire me too. :)
[15:46:57] <effnorwood> mbreitba: the connectx worked ok with snv 131 out of the box - took a lot of messing around - i have since re-written the driver
[15:47:14] *** RoyK has quit IRC
[15:47:16] <Andys^> ouch
[15:47:33] <mbreitba> Andy - yeah, I wasn't super impressed with the fact that I had to take the chassis offline to remove two screws. On our spare bladecenter those screws are now gone so we _can_ hot swap the IB networking in
[15:47:34] <effnorwood> i am a perfectionist
[15:47:52] <mbreitba> all of the other networking (gigabit) is hot swapable
[15:48:05] <mbreitba> the tavor driver?
[15:48:19] <mbreitba> err
[15:48:27] <mbreitba> connectx is the hermon, isn't it?
[15:48:48] *** timothyr has quit IRC
[15:48:59] <Andys^> btw, the AbleCom power supplies are great. never had a failure
[15:49:14] <effnorwood> mbreitba: hermon, yes
[15:49:32] <mbreitba> have those updates been pushed back into OSOL releases?
[15:49:41] <mbreitba> or were those private driver updates?
[15:49:47] <effnorwood> mbreitba: no. they are private.
[15:50:03] <mbreitba> a guy can hope, can't he?
[15:50:05] <mbreitba> ;)
[15:50:29] <Andys^> I imagine if you've just bought 10 racks of equipment you probably want to make sure it works well ;)

[15:52:51] <Andys^> and what configuration on each chassis? raidz2?
[15:53:05] <effnorwood> Andys^: a lot of the 500GB SAS, a lot of the OCZ solid states drives, some fusion-io and a bunch of ddrdrives for ZILs
[15:53:40] <Andys^> any dramas with the 500gb SAS jobs?
[15:53:51] <Andys^> they seem a little slow for 2.5", but are quite low power
[15:54:28] <effnorwood> Andys^: the environment here is mostly archive so slow is ok
[15:55:11] <Andys^> why'd you go 2.5" then?
[15:55:44] <Andys^> 3.5" would have given double the storage density
[15:55:52] <Andys^> with say.. 12 x 2TB in 2U
[15:56:16] *** RoyK has quit IRC
[15:56:30] <effnorwood> Andys^: that was then. :) now we are. WD green drives.
[15:56:37] <Andys^> ah
[15:56:49] * Andys^ is trying to get OFF wd green drives
[15:56:54] <effnorwood> this client is trying to take over the world
[15:56:59] <Andys^> (tm)
[15:57:14] <effnorwood> my guys here love the green drives
[15:57:22] <Andys^> i did love them, but had too many problems in the end
[15:58:15] <effnorwood> our favorite command is set copies=3
[15:58:20] <Andys^> hahh
[15:58:27] <Andys^> i woulda thought you'd go for RAIDZ3 :)

[15:58:55] *** ionizer_ has quit IRC
[15:58:56] *** arkadi has quit IRC
[15:58:57] <effnorwood> no - 3 simple copies is perfect and obviates the need for raid in this setup
[15:59:00] *** calum has joined #opensolaris
[15:59:11] <Stric> effnorwood: are you doing raid0 + copies=3?
[15:59:26] <Andys^> hrmm
[15:59:27] *** ionizer has joined #opensolaris
[15:59:36] <Andys^> why would you do that instead of mirroring?
[15:59:40] <Stric> effnorwood: if so, you have misunderstood what copies=3 is.
[16:00:18] <effnorwood> Stric: no. raidz, set copies =3 then we do some custom python "moving around of stuff"
[16:00:19] <Stric> it won't save you from disk failure.. it will save you from disk corruption
[16:00:44] <Andys^> bizarro
[16:00:59] <effnorwood> i'm trying to get them to agree to raidz, no copies on single boxes, then move stuff around
[16:01:10] <effnorwood> hey i'm a consultant :) - client driven
[16:01:18] *** RoyK has joined #opensolaris
[16:01:21] <Andys^> you mean you store multiple copies across servers in higher layers?
[16:01:36] <Stric> instead of doing raidz and copies=3, do 3 way raid10 instead.. more performance, less wasted space, more secure
[16:02:16] <Andys^> with the 24x2.5" box i'd go for 2 x 12-disk raidz2, or 3 x 8-disk raidz2
[16:02:19] <Andys^> for that application
[16:02:46] <effnorwood> what i want to get to for this application is jbod and 3 simple copies all on different nodes
[16:02:56] <effnorwood> like CAS
[16:03:28] <Andys^> makes sense, i guess, if you can handle it from the higher layers adequately

[16:17:19] <effnorwood> oh - and don't use quotas either
[16:17:22] *** ionizer has joined #opensolaris
[16:17:40] <RoyK> but 6924824?
[16:17:40] <effnorwood> 48GB ram and 24 x 500GB disks per 2U
[16:17:54] <RoyK> ok
[16:18:05] <RoyK> 24 disks in 2U?
[16:18:10] <RoyK> sounds a lot
[16:18:21] <effnorwood> RoyK: yes, supermicro goodness
[16:18:31] <effnorwood> 24 x 2.5
[16:18:36] <RoyK> oh - 2,5 :)
[16:18:52] <Andys^> effnorwood: ah I see. you have enough RAM for dedupe ;)
[16:19:00] <RoyK> we're using supermicross as well, but with bigger drives
[16:19:10] <Andys^> btw, apparently supermicro is preparing a larger 2.5" chassis

[16:19:59] <effnorwood> they now have 48 x 3.5 in 4U i think

[16:20:06] <effnorwood> front and back
[16:20:13] <RoyK> not 48 iirc
[16:20:32] <RoyK> and only 35 if you want PC guts in it

[16:21:55] <Shoggoth> opensolaris governing board
[16:21:57] <|woody|> sun should build a thumper with 2,5 drives :)
[16:21:58] <RoyK> Andys^: ok
[16:22:17] <RoyK> or just SSDs :þ
[16:22:26] <AukeF> they have those. Look up the F5100
[16:22:39] <effnorwood> i have a 16GB microsd card - what if we took the memory out of that and just filled up an entire rack with those chips?
[16:23:02] <effnorwood> it wouldn't be fast but that would be a giant storage brick
[16:23:30] <|woody|> well get a few f5100 :)
[16:23:34] <seanmcg> wouldn't last long either effnorwood. microsd have a limited write count
[16:24:46] <Stric> so does all flash chips
[16:25:00] <Stric> that's where wear leveling comes in..
[16:25:14] <effnorwood> doesn't seem to inhibit sales at FusionIO

[16:26:13] <Andys^> effnorwood: i have one of those 16gb microSD in my android... they're bloody amazing aren't they? like if you drop it in the carpet, its gone forever lol
[16:26:23] <Andys^> RoyK: i heard seagate has planned that
[16:26:35] <RoyK> shouldn't be very hard...
[16:26:49] <effnorwood> Andys^: tell me about it! i lost one already!
[16:26:50] <Stric> and ssds are using ram cache..

[16:28:33] *** hsp has joined #opensolaris
[16:28:43] <Andys^> Adaptec have already used flash as cache in one of their new raid cards
[16:31:00] <jbk> isn't 5ms access times for storage generally considered 'good' (espeically during heavy i/o)
[16:31:21] <Shoggoth> effnorwood: seems that there's only a couple of hornets on #vmware :(
[16:33:35] <effnorwood> Shoggoth: yea - they were nice today!
[16:33:55] <Shoggoth> usual carping about netapp
[16:34:02] <effnorwood> my previous experiences have been that just the mention of opensolaris sets them into a rage
[16:34:10] <Shoggoth> meh... always been overpriced nonsense
[16:34:24] <effnorwood> i love netapp. i worked for netapp for 7 years. and i love opensolaris.
[16:34:30] <effnorwood> zfs is awesome.
[16:34:44] <effnorwood> zfs, vmware and infiniband are what i do.
[16:34:50] <Andys^> it doesnt make a huge amount of sense to compare the two
[16:35:01] <Andys^> since you're comparing a product with an operating system
[16:35:08] <Shoggoth> eh... they're probably a good employer but I remember when they started out they were essentially selling BSDi based appliances for a very large margin
[16:35:15] <Andys^> makes more sense to compare a NetApp $blah to a Sun Storage 7xxx
[16:35:15] <effnorwood> well, netapp sued sun over zfs because it is so much like WAFL
[16:35:21] <Shoggoth> it always seemed a little dishonest to me
[16:35:24] <Shoggoth> yeah I remember that

[16:37:52] <Shoggoth> Andys^: you're exactly right about that - I actually have a day job doing VMware stuff but I'm finding the platform more and more disappointing because it's so windows centric
[16:38:01] <Shoggoth> sensible business decision
[16:38:18] <Shoggoth> but it makes working in the enviroment really lame
[16:38:43] <Andys^> *nod* i use a subset that doesnt require windows
[16:38:58] <Andys^> vCentre Server is slow & bloated :(
[16:39:07] <Shoggoth> eh... I work as a VMware instructor so 90% of what I see is windoze :(
[16:39:41] <Andys^> well let me put it this way.. when i install esxi, i only really use VI client to register the serial, then i switch to console mode ;)
[16:39:54] <Shoggoth> yeah... ESX is actually a nice platform but vCenter is aweful
[16:40:06] <Andys^> vmware kernel vs vCenter is like night and day heh
[16:40:17] *** yippi has joined #opensolaris
[16:40:33] <Shoggoth> I think the main problem is that it's built on top of Dot-Nyet
[16:40:59] <Andys^> yes
[16:41:17] <Andys^> and mssql. which means they're so tied to it they can't port to linux without alot of hassle
[16:41:32] <Shoggoth> well you can run on oracle
[16:41:43] <|woody|> they had a linux beta for vcenter 2.5
[16:41:52] <Andys^> woody: and then it got shitcanned :(
[16:42:11] <|woody|> yep
[16:42:11] <Shoggoth> but personally I wouldn't recommend it simply becuase 90% of deployments run on MS SQL hence it's the most well debugged
[16:42:25] *** gswain has left #opensolaris
[16:42:42] <|woody|> and the easyest to do :) no orcale folks to talk to so they give you a db :)
[16:43:00] <Shoggoth> I'll be very happy once the guys at intel finish integrating nested hypervisor support into Xen
[16:43:10] <Andys^> why's that?
[16:43:40] <Shoggoth> well I also run Xen courses... being able to run VM's with both hypervisors on my laptop is very handy for demos
[16:44:02] <Andys^> ahhhh
[16:44:06] <Shoggoth> and once you couple that with a solaris dom0 + zfs dedupe... lots of VMs with less disk :)
[16:44:11] <Andys^> then you can try Live Migrating instances of ESXi between laptops ;)
[16:44:46] <Shoggoth> ppl have done it :)
[16:45:11] <Shoggoth> I'll try and track down the blog post
[16:45:28] <|woody|> I run esxi in vmware fusion to demo stuff. Never powerd on a VM in esxi though :)
[16:45:31] <Shoggoth> some guy had an ESX VM running on bare metal and VMotioned it to a VM
[16:45:34] <Shoggoth> really neat stuff
[16:45:58] <Shoggoth> woody: it works OK if you have a Core i7 or the lastest AMD proc

[16:46:41] <jamesd2> i dont see a laptop cabible or running dedup.... unless you have a lot of ram and ssd's
[16:46:45] <Shoggoth> it's the NPT/EPT support
[16:47:16] <Shoggoth> heh... I'm just about to order a new laptop and one I'm considering has 256GB ssd and 16GB of RAM :)
[16:47:29] <Andys^> crikey
[16:47:35] <Andys^> 16gb's not too good for battery life ;)
[16:47:40] <jamesd2> they make laptops with 16GB?
[16:47:42] <|woody|> I don't need to power it on anyway. Just use it to show how nice running vmware on sun 7xxxx is doning some cloning mounting via smb to backup or whatever
[16:47:46] <effnorwood> Shoggoth: is that the Sony?
[16:48:08] *** wrapster has joined #opensolaris
[16:48:10] <Shoggoth> shit no
[16:48:57] <wrapster> does osol by default come with all the internationalization libs? or are there only a set of defaults that are included in the ISO .. the remaining can be downloadeD?
[16:49:12] <Shoggoth> I like the look of some of the VAIO's but they're extremenly unreliable in my experience, they're really overpriced and well... it's made by Sony and I won't give them a penny

[16:55:58] <Shoggoth> effnorwood: you have an interest in running ESX as a VM?
[16:56:17] <alanc> maybe because they heard the makers of the movie say that Larry was one of their inspirations for the movie's version of the Tony Stark character?
[16:56:25] <effnorwood> Shoggoth: ESXi, yes - that would help me a lot
[16:56:25] <wrapster> alanc: ok thank

[16:57:32] <taemun> (and metadata for the pool, I guess, but I don't think there is that much)
[16:57:34] <Andys^> taemun: hahaha. there's also metadata, which is stored uncompressed in (L2)ARC
[16:57:40] <Andys^> but compressed on disk.
[16:57:43] <taemun> yeah
[16:57:52] *** hunter has joined #opensolaris
[16:57:53] <Andys^> apparently compresses VERY well, so wastes alot of L2ARC space

[16:59:00] * alanc remembers Scott McNealy getting a cameo in a movie about hackers about 7-8 years ago...hrm, what was it called?
[16:59:03] <lblume> If you are a super-hero and use Oracle products in your secret hideout, do you have to submit your systems to their audits? Or can you get a special licensing scheme?
[16:59:22] <Andys^> oh god
[16:59:24] <effnorwood> When I use ESXi in a vm, it's just for demo only

[17:38:30] <Wes--> Shoggoth: Would you like me to email you one? :)
[17:38:55] <Wes--> Shoggoth: True - this is one I built X11R5 support on a sparc in '97. So for Sun3 it should have been possible to get much smaller.
[17:39:01] <Wes--> Especially if you didn't want X
[17:39:26] <Shoggoth> Wes--: not unless your email client also supports time travel :)
[17:39:26] <Wes--> Actually, those things had that Suntool crap, didn't they?
[17:39:41] <Wes--> Shoggoth: It does, but not in this timeline, sadly
[17:39:46] <Shoggoth> actually I think the 20MB binary was on a Sun4

[17:50:43] <twisti> Could it be the case that I need to upgrade my ZFS version?
[17:50:58] <Shoggoth> indeed... except this was before that... I suspect he may have wrote the tools himself
[17:51:18] <jbit> twisti: what's the exact error

[17:53:57] <twisti> Should I try a image-update again?
[17:53:57] <tsoome> that will lock you up from using older BE's

[17:56:02] <jbit> JDuke128: opensolaris will basically accelerate everything a linux machine with similar drives can, asusming theer are graphics drivers for opensolaris (ATI neglect to do this)
[17:56:20] <tsoome> pastebin zfs list -t all
[17:56:31] <Shoggoth> jbit: yes that's probably the biggest issue
[17:56:43] <Shoggoth> has anyone prodded AMD/ATI about that?
[17:57:04] <jbit> Shoggoth: i think their official repsonse was that the drivers are opensource so other people should do it
[17:57:17] <Shoggoth> lol.... what a load of crap
[17:57:27] <Shoggoth> have you seen their opensource "driver" >
[17:57:29] <JDuke128> jbit , i m using beagleboard , i want to use opensolaris arm port , is there anything like linux , directfb and directfb java support ?

[17:57:34] <tsoome> zfs destroy rpool/ROOT/opensolaris-137 ?
[17:57:43] <Shoggoth> it's just a bit of mode switching code.. and that's about it

[17:58:20] *** gebi has quit IRC
[17:58:24] <jbit> JDuke128: iirc directfb has very basic support for OS' other than linux
[17:58:26] <twisti> tsoome, That worked. Odd.
[17:58:34] <Shoggoth> I'd really like to go for the ATI option in my new laptop but of course the drivers aren't there
[17:58:35] <JDuke128> ubuntu 10 is really suck
[17:58:38] <jbit> JDuke128: on solaris it's either x11 or terminal

[17:59:13] <JDuke128> X11 slows down my embedded system
[17:59:16] <jbit> Shoggoth: ATI have a full opensource 3d drier
[17:59:35] <JDuke128> i want directfb system on opensolaris arm port
[17:59:35] <jbit> JDuke128: i don't think using opensolaris for embedded work is a good idea though
[17:59:38] <Shoggoth> jbit: only support chips that are a generation or two old
[17:59:52] <Shoggoth> fine for a desktop PC
[18:00:00] <JDuke128> jbit , the advantage of opensolaris arm port is , multi cpu ?
[18:00:09] <Shoggoth> but with laptops you don't really get much of a choice

[18:00:38] *** Error404NotFound has joined #opensolaris
[18:00:41] <jbit> JDuke128: so you have an arm cpu, a bunch of sata controllers, bunch of disks, opensolaris and you end up with a really nice solution
[18:00:45] *** sergiusens has quit IRC
[18:00:59] <jbit> i don't think the ARM port is designed to compete with linux in the embedded space

[18:01:37] <jbit> (this isn't an official stand, it's jsut what i get hte impression of)
[18:01:45] <JDuke128> i think opensolaris may take its place on embedded if it supports dual or more arm cpu controlling same os
[18:01:52] <JDuke128> with raid sd cards
[18:02:01] <jbit> well solaris uses tonnes of ram by default
[18:02:10] *** mph has joined #opensolaris
[18:02:31] <jbit> i don't think it's a well suited embedded OS
[18:03:32] <rkeene> True story.
[18:03:40] <lblume> RAID SD cards? multiple CPU? what kind of device is that?
[18:04:25] <JDuke128> Iblume , we are team we working on new embedded system that is using multi arm card with multi sd cards
[18:04:43] <JDuke128> that we use opensolaris arm port as native
[18:05:02] <JDuke128> use of ZFS and Solaris multi cpu friendly
[18:05:08] <jbit> well, i think a nice little dual core arm system with 2gigs of ram, four sata ports, coupel of gbit ethernet ports, very fat dma controller running opensolaris would make a nice little NAS box

[18:07:36] <jbit> (but, why would you need floating point on a NAS system? :)
[18:07:37] <JDuke128> Atom doesnt contain like all in one cpu OMAP3530 and OMAP4 series
[18:07:38] <RoyK> FTP wise
[18:07:42] <JDuke128> OMAP = ARM
[18:08:07] <JDuke128> TI OMAP contains = DSP Unit + CPU + GPU in 1 little chip
[18:08:11] <JDuke128> that atom doesnt have
[18:08:21] <RoyK> no
[18:08:36] <jbit> JDuke128: the next generation of atom will have an SoC solution though from what i hear
[18:08:37] <JDuke128> atom requires extra boards
[18:08:38] <RoyK> Intel really never understood embedded systems :)
[18:08:59] <Shoggoth> JDuke128: lol... I read that as "atom required extra bonds"
[18:09:27] <JDuke128> extra modules
[18:09:28] <RoyK> jbit: does that matter when ARM can do with far less power as of now? it'll take years for intel to surpass them
[18:09:44] <jbit> RoyK: nope, just relevent
[18:09:47] <jbit> RoyK: i'm all for ARM :)
[18:09:54] <Shoggoth> RoyK: I agree.. doubly so for microsoft... I used to do embedded systems work in a previous life, these days people talk about swap with an embedded system .... WTF?
[18:09:58] <jbit> i don't think intel will surpass arm
[18:10:06] <JDuke128> Intel is expensive and just %14 more performance then ARM , i can buy 2x ARM chip double speed
[18:10:14] <JDuke128> with small memory usage
[18:10:23] <JDuke128> small power usage sry
[18:10:53] <RoyK> jbit: we have this little 400MHz ARM9 system at work, ethernet, some serial ports and 64MB RAM + 64MB flash - the cpu uses a maximum of 119mW and the system as a whole up to 3 watts with all external ports running
[18:11:01] <jbit> i think the main reason intel will fail is they're not willign to license their cores, rather than anything technical
[18:11:02] <JDuke128> hackers using OMAP3 to crack some codes on Redhat conference i saw , why they dont use Intel ATOM ?
[18:11:09] <TommyTK> would you consider the iPhone/iPod touch an embedded system?
[18:11:36] <jbit> having a million different ARM based SoCs with various features is always going to win out over one or two SoCs made by the CPU mfg
[18:11:37] <RoyK> by today's standards, yes
[18:11:44] <TommyTK> heh
[18:11:49] <JDuke128> they use distributed OMAP3 processors not intel atoms
[18:12:23] <JDuke128> intel is fuc king capitalyst trying to capture everything also...
[18:12:24] <jbit> RoyK: yeah, i used to work as an embededd programmer
[18:12:28] <RoyK> we use some rather nice 8bit Atmel CPUs at work for some systems - that's embedded :)

[18:16:17] <RoyK> :)
[18:16:39] <Shoggoth> RoyK: qnx hehe or 6502 hehe ?
[18:16:41] <RoyK> we just use them for in-house designed temperature / humidity sensors and such
[18:17:03] <JDuke128> qnx is best on embedded system
[18:17:04] <TommyTK> web based thermostats?

[19:29:04] <twisti> WTF?
[19:29:10] <tsoome> zpool status -v rpool
[19:29:33] <TommyTK> twisti: you have been bit :)
[19:30:01] <TommyTK> twisti: you canpt use EFI labeled disks as boot disks, you have to put the zpool on a "slice" ... yes it sucks
[19:30:22] <twisti> Hmm
[19:30:26] <twisti> Why did that change?
[19:31:01] <TommyTK> that never changed to my knowledge, it usually becomes a problem when someone tries to move their rpool to a different disk
[19:31:05] <TommyTK> thats when it burned me anyhow :)
[19:31:27] <tsoome> hm, that does not seem like it should have efi on it, something is wrong there....
[19:31:39] <TommyTK> tsoome: its on a slice, but that doesn't mean its not efi :)
[19:31:57] <twisti> I mean: why did it work before?
[19:32:02] <TommyTK> twisti: it needs to be on a VTOC, not EFI
[19:32:14] <tsoome> well, its not mirrored, and its clearly bootable, so i fail to see how it can be efi;)
[19:32:49] <TommyTK> twisti: did you move your rpool to another disk, maybe by zpool attach (mirroring) then zpool detach (the old one) ?
[19:33:12] <twisti> I don't think so.
[19:33:17] <TommyTK> k
[19:33:21] <twisti> But
[19:33:37] <twisti> I had this problem with the disk driver.

[19:35:06] <TommyTK> is this an external disk twisti or the internal disk?
[19:35:17] <twisti> Internal.
[19:35:22] <tsoome> what is your locale btw?

[19:46:36] <twisti> I updated this rpool since 124 without problems.

[19:49:35] <TommyTK> format -e ... then choose the number for the rpool disk (c12..), then print ?

[19:51:54] <TommyTK> i forget how to check, but that doesnt look EFI to me?
[19:52:22] <TommyTK> type "label" .. pastebin the next prompt, hit control C tho, dont label your rpool :)
[19:52:49] <TommyTK> it should say Speciify Label Type[0]: (where 0 -> SMI)
[19:53:23] <TommyTK> hmmm it does... now what :)
[19:53:34] <twisti> No idea :)
[19:53:40] <TommyTK> We need Victor Latushkin? :)

[21:31:41] <hunter> traianow: I'm just glad there's any doc - I just don't know if its really relevant to opensolaris
[21:31:53] <traianow> indeed.
[21:32:05] <traianow> skim, don't read, I guess.
[21:32:20] <hunter> and I'm not getting any reply on this channel about anything ldap related, whcih is disturbing
[21:32:36] <lewellyn> hunter: the only ldap i do is activedirectory
[21:32:39] *** vraa has joined #opensolaris
[21:33:10] <hunter> lewellyn: there's lots of docs for that. I've done AD in the past, so I may be able to translate.
[21:33:12] <lewellyn> it strips the general pain of ldap + krb, and replaces it with generally well-documented pain :)
[21:33:56] <hunter> I rather liked AD. From the linux side (I was using centos 4 and 5) it looked like a slightly janky kerb and ldap, and it got me out of the user account mgmt business.
[21:34:25] <hunter> But the env here is mit krb5 (which i just got working) and openldap for the server.
[21:34:47] <lewellyn> i'm just waiting for the kernel cifs server to do dfs and a subset of gpo and life will be good ;)
[21:34:47] <jdoe> hunter: so what's the problem?
[21:34:56] <lewellyn> central management is wonderful
[21:35:28] *** biant92 has left #opensolaris
[21:35:36] <hunter> jdoe: I've found a bunch of docs, but all that I have so far is for either solaris 10 with no indication that they are relevant to opensolaris, and AD .
[21:35:54] <jdoe> I would imagine the sol10 docs are relevant to opensolaris.
[21:36:05] <hunter> jdoe: I was hoping to find (or be directed to) docs for non-AD ldap integration that were specific to opensolaris.
[21:36:10] <jdoe> I've only done it on sol10, but other than automount (which was mildly irritating) things were pretty straightforward.
[21:36:23] *** CoolMa has joined #opensolaris
[21:36:33] <hunter> jdoe: did you bang files around or use that scary ldap script I've been warned about?
[21:36:39] <lewellyn> hunter: 90%+ solaris 10 docs are relevant to opensolaris. and you haven't really explained what you're trying to do.
[21:37:08] <hunter> lewellyn: get a 2009.06 (111) opensolaris using kerberos and ldaps for user authentication and logins.
[21:37:26] <lewellyn> the solaris 10 docs should be fine
[21:37:39] <jdoe> kerberos is setup the same way you would on any other os, give or take (the pam config is different, but whatever)
[21:38:07] <jdoe> ldap was ldapclient and nsswitch.ldap
[21:38:28] <hunter> jdoe: haven't tried pam yet.
[21:39:12] *** FireflyST has quit IRC
[21:39:14] <hunter> I've been warned by others about using ldapclient - I'm hoping to find the specific config files (be they config or keys or certificates) that are needed, so that I can put those files in our configuration management system.
[21:39:36] <lewellyn> that's what BEs are for ;)
[21:39:49] * lewellyn waits for this poor machine's resolver to find docs.sun.com
[21:39:51] <hunter> a boot environment?
[21:39:57] <lewellyn> yes
[21:40:07] <jbk> it copies /etc/nsswitch.ldap -> /etc/nsswitch.conf, creates /var/ldap/ldap_client_file and /var/ldap/ldap_client_cred (if needed), and starts ldap_cachemgr
[21:40:10] <lewellyn> try things in a fresh BE. if they fail, you have the configuration prior, still
[21:40:12] *** FireflyST has joined #opensolaris
[21:40:15] <hunter> oh - take a snapshot of the present just past initial install, do the ldapclient, and see what changed?
[21:40:26] <jbk> and what's so bad about ldapclient
[21:40:29] <jbk> works well for me
[21:40:34] <lewellyn> that or just let it do its job and you can roll back if it dies
[21:40:36] <jbk> and allows me to keep the client config in ldap
[21:40:38] <hunter> jbk: I don't know - never used it.
[21:41:00] <hunter> lewellyn: can you walk me through creating a test BE?
[21:41:17] <hunter> lewellyn: my only exposure to them so far is image-updates through pkg.
[21:41:40] <lewellyn> pfexec beadm create mynewbename
[21:41:50] <lewellyn> yes, it's that simple
[21:42:05] <hunter> lewellyn: ok - that'd be a copy of the system AT PRESENT, which would be my "backup"?
[21:42:24] <lewellyn> it'd be what you'd fall back to if it died, if that's what you mean
[21:42:31] <hunter> yes, mostly.
[21:43:01] <lewellyn> oh, you need to beadm activate the new be too
[21:43:05] <hunter> is there a way to diff two BE's to see the difference? Can I just mount another BE at some place in the fs and do a straight diff that way? Or can you only have one BE mounted at a time?
[21:43:08] <lewellyn> then a reboot will take you into it
[21:43:16] <lewellyn> beadm mount
[21:43:20] <lewellyn> man beadm :)
[21:43:25] <hunter> I'll do that.
[21:43:33] <jbit> hunter: beadm mount somebe /mnt/somepoint
[21:43:41] *** Calibellus has joined #opensolaris
[21:43:43] <hunter> I have a test machine (actually 3)
[21:44:08] <hunter> why do you need a beadm mount - isn't a BE just a zfs dataset/snapshot?
[21:44:20] <lewellyn> it does the magic to make sure it stays consistent
[21:44:35] <lewellyn> after all, you want to boot from it again probably ;)
[21:44:47] <hunter> ok
[21:44:58] <hunter> Let me get started with all that
[21:45:06] <jbit> hunter: all BEs have "/" as their zfs mount point
[21:45:26] <jbit> so to mount it without using beadm you'd need to set the mount point, mount, do stuff, unmount, remember to set hte mount point back, etc
