We use MPxIO and the best /etc/system settings (recommended by EMC support
matrix) for us are:

forceload: drv/ssd
set ssd:ssd_max_throttle=20
set ssd:ssd_io_time=0x78
set maxphys=1048576
set fcp:fcp_offline_delay = 20

Hi Managers,

I am on Solaris 10 connected to Symmetrix SAN.
What happened recently was a SAN firmware upgrade, which caused small delay
(5-10 seconds).
As a result, qlc HBAs were offlined and all LUNs have been lost hence the
mounts were gone.
With forceLIP it succeeded to get them back without rebooting.

My major concern is how to avoid such situations in future.
How to force Solaris not to offline HBAs for let's say 20-30 seconds
and
keep
filesystem mounted during short maintenances?

Very first thing I came up to was fcp_offline_delay parameter. It is set to
20
seconds by default, but it is clear enough that downtime took significantly
less time. I puzzled what should I tune to achieve my major objective.

thanks in advance,

Greetings Managers
Thanks to JayJay for response.

The solution is (fortunately) quite simple. We allocated cpus to a
static pool and used the cpu.pinned directive to ensure that we get a
definite cpu. The rest of the zones can still use dynamic resource
pools. Now we just have to hope that this fixes our problem with this
application!

Dear Sun Managers,

Have any one tested/utilized Dynamic Domain feature available in M5000
series servers. If so, can you please share (or) point me to
the appropriate documentations available on it for our understanding.

Thanks a Ton!

I didn't get a single hit from this mail. :-(

The zfs root file system finally reached a point of no return. I didn't
have a chance to try reseating the drives or anything. The machine
crashed and wouldn't boot again, so we just replaced both disks.

For the migration issue... I had installed the OS on machine2, then we
popped it (a single disk at this point) into machine1. As before, it
failed to boot, saying that the zfs pool 'rootpool' was last mounted on

a different machine (machine2). So, I booted off the network into
single user. Then ran 'zpool import -f rootpool'. Then I rebooted off

the disk and all was fine.

There may be a better procedure, but this does work.

The system logs report scsi bus resets and read and write errors for
both disks. I assume one of the disks is causing problems for
everything on the bus.

The 'faulted' disk is the one with the original OS. The files it
is
reporting problems with are all on rootpool/a1. There's only ~50,000
of
them. That's just a copy of our /usr/local, so there's nothing
there I
need.

Should we just shut the machine down/off, reseat both disks, and hope
for the best? I'm concerned it won't boot again. :-( Or, if we
try to
hot-plug one of the disks, it may panic too.

I have another related question...

I'd like to prepare another disk or two to slap into this host in case

it's not repairable or in case something I do makes things worse. :-)
What is the proper procedure for installing a machine with zfs root,
then moving that disk to another host? I did this once before and it
complained about the zpool being last used by a different host. I ended
up booting off the net and forcing the import. To simplify matters,
should I boot the temporary install host off the net and export the
zpool? Or should I just be prepared to force the import?

thank you

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

Greetings Sun Managers;

I have a Sun T2000 with Solaris 10 on it. This server has been in production
since 11/2007 and its been running great since. As you can see from ...

# ndd -get /dev/e1000g0 1000hdx_cap
1
# ndd -get /dev/e1000g1 1000hdx_cap
1

both ports are set for auto-negotiation. The ports on our switch to which
this T2000's NICs are connected are set to 1GB auto-negotiation. The
connections should both be running at 1000 full duplex. This T2000 is used
for NetWorker backups. It was rebooted this past Sunday morning and it came
up fine, but since then, its throughput has been much too slow.

I am very green behind the ears with Solaris systems management, so I am at
a loss as to why this problem has occurred. I looked through the FAQ file
for this list and I found out about the ndd utility, but I don't see how to
use it to fix this problem or if some other tool would be appropriate.
Googling has just given me a bunch of information that's cryptic to me.

What I need to know is how to set the ports to 1GB again, preferably without
any service interruptions. I also need to know why the auto-negotiation is
incorrect and how to prevent this issue from occurring again. If anyone has
any thoughts on this matter, please let me know.

Hi Managers,

I've got 2 SunFire V1280s running Sun Cluster 3.1. They're connected
to
a StorEdge 3910 array that is spitting out read errors when it does a
vol verify. Here are some of the errors:

(these keep repeating on the same 3 disks)
Jan 28 01:30:41 locus ISR1[2]: W: u2d09 SCSI error occurred: Medium
Error (sense key = 0x3). Read Retries Exhausted.
Jan 27 14:45:06 locus ISR1[2]: W: u2d03 SCSI error occurred: Medium
Error (sense key = 0x3). Read Retries Exhausted.
Jan 27 14:45:06 locus ISR1[2]: W: u2d01 SCSI error occurred: Medium
Error (sense key = 0x3). Read Retries Exhausted.


(these keep repeating for the same 2 stripes)
Jan 27 14:45:08 locus SX11[2]: N: u2ctr Vol verify found multiple
read-disk errors on stripe 4365949 of volume (Raid set) vol2. Skipping
stripe.
Jan 27 14:43:01 locus SX11[2]: N: u2ctr Vol verify found multiple
read-disk errors on stripe 4360575 of volume (Raid set) vol2. Skipping
stripe.


I logged into the T3 in question, and 'fru stat', 'fru list',
'vol stat'
all look fine. I recently had a failed u2d01 which was replaced and
reconstructed successfully from the spare.


I opened a case with Sun about this, and this is what they had to say:

"Problem is that there are multiple drive media errors across stripe
units. Normally a reconstruct of the stripe will yield the data needed
for the host and the errors will be marked on the drive. Next writes to
that LBA will reallocate the errors (drive function) but only if there
is a single drive reporting the error for that stripe unit. Since there
are multiple drives in that stripe unit reporting errors you have a
multiple drive error that is reported back to the host as a failed read
io operation.

The only thing you can do is backup the affected volumes and
re-initialize (re-create) and restore the data.

He then stated the following as your only 2 choices from this point out:

1. Customer can use his DB or FS utilities to find out what file or
files are affected by read operations and re-write those files. You
should then get corresponding data reallocations on the array and then
monitor the array.

2. Backup data, blow away volumes on tray 2, recreate volumes,
initialize volumes, recreate slices, restore data."


Does anyone have any other suggestions to fix the read errors? If I
have to choose between the two options Sun gave, I'd rather go with
option 1, but how would I go about doing that? It seems like trying to
find a needle in a haystack. Sun wasn't very helpful with that...just
gave me a man page of the 'find' command. I want to avoid option 2 if
at all possible because it'll be too time and resource-consuming.

Thanks,
Ray

I am running Solaris 10 x86 u6 (10/2008) on a SuperMicro PDSME+ with
an Areca ARC-1280ML 24-channel RAID controller. The RAID controller
is configured in JBOD mode with drives in channels 1 - 8 and 24.
Solaris can only see the drives on channels 1 through 8. The RAID
BIOS says the drive on channel 24 is at SCSI Ch/Id/Lun : 0/23/0. I
have modified /kernel/drv/sd.conf to include entries through target 23:

name="sd" class="scsi" target=0 lun=0;
....
name="sd" class="scsi" target=23 lun=0;

I tried running devfsadm as well as a reconfigure reboot, but still
cannot see the device at target 23. How can I expose this drive to
Solaris?

Thanks,

Managers,

I have a SUN fire V440 or two that I would like to chock full of disk.
Currently each have 4 x 72GB internal disks.
I would like to replace these with SUN 300GB disk but can not find any
supporting information.
I have been told that it should work.

Has anyone configured V440's in this way? and the big question will SUN
support it?

Thanks,

Alex
