I don't quite follow - are you saying that these two are equivalent *on your machine*, or that they are/should be everywhere? My research (I don't have a Solaris-y box available for testing, I'm afraid) indicates that that should not be the case! I found an example of what /etc/rtc_config looks like at http://i-am.ws/entry/solaris_x86_rt_clock (minus commentary): zone_info=Canada/Mountain zone_lag=21600 which is definitely not what your /etc/default/init looks like (if I interpret the above as a literal quote) ... regards Michael > But there is a /usr/sbin/rtc which controls hwclock, > aka rtc. > svcadm enable netwerk/ntp solved it. > > -Dieter > > -- Michael Schuster http://recursiveramblings.wordpress.com/ recursion, n: see 'recursion' ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] How to debug the boot sequence?
Dtrace does actually have support for that kind of operation (or it used to
when I used it) - I think you should start with "anonymous" tracing, IIRC.

what you're describing is memory overcommit, which Solaris never did (at
least not while I was at Sun).
If memory serves, pages weren't cleaned at reservation (ie when "malloc"
was called), but only when actually accessed ("zfod" - zero fill on
demand). Memory *did* have to be accounted for ("reserved" as the name
says), so you'd know at malloc-time if you were out of memory, and not when
someone tried to access it later.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] OI 147 doesn't get screen size right
KDE team, I'm adding you to this discussion because KDE seems to make some difference here: what's missing in this message: with OI and KDE, it looks like screen "size" is 3200x1200 on a 1920x1200 physical screen, which looks mighty strange.

as I understand GPT, you can't - it's the description of how the disk
is partitioned ("divvied up"), and is quite different from the
traditional "MBR"-style partition table. changing this type will lose
all data on the disk.

The latest guess is have you tested the theory that your power config needs fixing? IIRC there've been a few threads recently talking about a symptom you mention the resolution to which was posted (I think) by Randy Fishel explaining how to adjust your config. > that something is in a tight "spawn child which dies" loop. you could easily test this theory by doing repeated "ps -ef | sort -n +1 | tail " and looking at the jumps the pids make (assuming they haven't wrapped around yet, which in itself - if it happens early after boot - is probably a good indication that your theory is good).

Are you asking whether zfs versions are in lockstep with the (Open)Solaris/OI/.. build? if so, no, they're not (or have not been so far). I think there's an option to "zfs upgrade" (-v, IIRC), that gives a list of zfs versions you could use (I don't have anything Solaris-y around at work any more, so can't look it up; man-pages prove hard to find on-line, but this: http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group+zfs/WebHome may help ...)

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] 'pkg image-update' and BEs
Hi Aneurin, I'd expect one of the design goals of the whole image-update process was to work with as little interruption as possible (we had this in live upgrade as well, so the historical precedent is fairly clear, IMO anyway): you could run your update, watch it finish, analyse logs etc., all while the machine (think "big server") was up and running *completely unchanged*. Only when/if you're satisfied that the update did what you expected it to do, you could (schedule a) reboot. IMO that's a much safer approach than what you describe. cheers Michael On Mon, Jun 25, 2012 at 4:18 PM, Aneurin Price wrote: > Hi folks, > > I have a basic newbie question: can somebody help me to understand how > exactly the boot environments created by 'pkg image-update' work? > > Lets say I start with the BE 'mysystem'.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] /hipster: xargs coredumps
Hi,
I'm afraid I have nothing capable of running anything other than android
around here; I was just wondering, since my understanding of xargs is
xargs [command [args... ]]
So what you're doing is executing whatever 'ls' prints first as command
with the rest as arguments, which seems strange unless your cwd contains
binaries ... And I don't quite see the point :-) unless that is it.
