Solaris 10 release 9/10

Don't forget to download the new release of Oracle (Sun) Solaris 10. Just launched. Check all the new features in the Oracle Solaris web page. Unfortunately the old Sun accounts aren't running and a new Oracle registration is needed until the old accounts are consolidated.

Sun Fire V120 as NAS part 8: Now with UFS filesystem (ZFS to UFS)

Before the summer I did a lot of test with a Sun Fire V120 Sparc server. At the time I used Solaris 10/09 installed in a 37GB disk and a ZFS array of three 18GB disk ia a Storedge S1. The results were bad in terms of network file transfer and I was thinking to reinstall everyrhin with a new UFS configuration.

Thats seems an easy job but The first step was so difficult: Solaris didn't want to changue the ZFS filesystem to UFS. After a lt of searching a I fund the good solution for Sparc Solaris (usually all the information was for x86 Solaris with a different format utility) here. Just a few steps are necessary.

1. We need to use the format utility once with each disc. Here how I re-labeled the first hd (SMI label needed):

# format -e c1t1d0
selecting c1t1d0
[disk formatted]

FORMAT MENU:
        disk       - select a disk
        type       - select (define) a disk type
        partition  - select (define) a partition table
        current    - describe the current disk
        format     - format and analyze the disk
        repair     - repair a defective sector
        label      - write label to the disk
        analyze    - surface analysis
        defect     - defect list management
        backup     - search for backup labels
        verify     - read and display labels
        inquiry    - show vendor, product and revision
        scsi       - independent SCSI mode selects
        cache      - enable, disable or query SCSI disk cache
        volname    - set 8-character volume name
        !     - execute , then return
        quit
format> label
[0] SMI Label
[1] EFI Label
Specify Label type[1]: 0
Auto configuration via format.dat[no]? no
format> quit
#

Now repeat with the next 4 hd's.

2. Partitioning is more complicated.

• Start the format utility: # format c1t1d0.
• Select in the menu: partition, an then  modify.
• Select All free hog:

Select partitioning base:

        0. Current partition table (unnamed)

        1. All Free Hog

Choose base (enter number) [0]? 1

Part      Tag    Flag     Cylinders        Size            Blocks
  0       root    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  1       swap    wu       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  2     backup    wu       0 - 7505       16.86GB    (7506/0/0) 35368272
  3 unassigned    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  4 unassigned    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  5 unassigned    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  6        usr    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  7 unassigned    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)          

• At this stage we can change the partition sizes (this is a 18GB hd):

Do you wish to continue creating a new partition
table based on above table[yes]?
Free Hog partition[6]? 7
Enter size of partition '0' [0b, 0c, 0.00mb, 0.00gb]: 16gb
Enter size of partition '1' [0b, 0c, 0.00mb, 0.00gb]:
Enter size of partition '3' [0b, 0c, 0.00mb, 0.00gb]:
Enter size of partition '4' [0b, 0c, 0.00mb, 0.00gb]:
Enter size of partition '5' [0b, 0c, 0.00mb, 0.00gb]:
Enter size of partition '6' [0b, 0c, 0.00mb, 0.00gb]:


Part      Tag    Flag     Cylinders        Size            Blocks
  0       root    wm       0 - 7121       16.00GB    (7122/0/0) 33558864
  1       swap    wu       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  2     backup    wu       0 - 7505       16.86GB    (7506/0/0) 35368272
  3 unassigned    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  4 unassigned    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  5 unassigned    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  6        usr    wm       0               0         (0/0/0)           0
  7 unassigned    wm    7122 - 7505      883.50MB    (384/0/0)   1809408

Okay to make this the current partition table[yes]?
Enter table name (remember quotes): array

Ready to label disk, continue? yes

partition> quit
format> quit
#

3. Now is time to copy the partition table to the other hd's using:

# prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s2 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c2t1d0s2

Here I had an small problem because one of the hard disks is different, also 18 GB and Seagate but different model. I had to do all the partitioning one more time but with the same zise partitions.

Total disk cylinders available: 14076 + 2 (reserved cylinders)

Part      Tag    Flag     Cylinders         Size            Blocks
  0 unassigned    wm       0 - 13283       16.00GB    (13284/0/0) 33555384
  1 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)            0
  2     backup    wu       0 - 14075       16.95GB    (14076/0/0) 35555976
  3 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)            0
  4 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)            0
  5 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)            0
  6 unassigned    wm       0                0         (0/0/0)            0
  7 unassigned    wm   13284 - 14072      973.15MB    (789/0/0)    1993014

4. This step is easy, copy the metadata:

# metadb -a -f c1t1d0s7 c2t1d0s7 c2t2d0s7 c2t3d0s7

5. And create the Raid 5 array!!!

# metainit d0 -r c1t1d0s0 c2t1d0s0 c2t2d0s0 c2t3d0s0
d0: RAID configurado (RAID is setup)

Now the array is created but is not ready. Using metastat several times we can check the status of the build:

# metastat d0
d0: RAID

6. Finished!!!

7. When the array is finished we can create the filesystem (and wait a lot more time):

# newfs -i 8192 /dev/md/rdsk/d0
newfs: construir un nuevo sistema de archivos /dev/md/rdsk/d0: (y/n)? y 

Advertencia: 4120 sector(es) en el último cilindro sin asignar
/dev/md/rdsk/d0:        100653032 sectores en 16383 cilindros de 48 pistas, 128 sectores
        49147,0MB en 1024 grupos de cilindros (16 c/g, 48,00MB/g, 5824 i/g)
copias de seguridad super-bloque (para fsck -F ufs -o b=#) en:
 32, 98464, 196896, 295328, 393760, 492192, 590624, 689056, 787488, 885920,
Inicializando grupos de cilindros:
....................
copias de seguridad del superbloque de los últimos 10 grupos de cilindros en:
 99687200, 99785632, 99884064, 99982496, 100080928, 100179360, 100277792, 100376224, 100474656, 100573088

Sorry, I installed Solaris in Spanish but....

9. Now we can mount the filesystem in a directory and it will be ready for use. The same name as my first atempt with ZFS:

# mkdir /fsshared
# mount -F ufs /dev/md/dsk/d0 /fsshared

10. The final step is to make the mount persistent.we need to insert a new line in the /etc/vfstab (data separated with tabs)

/etc/vfstab
#device         device          mount           FS      fsck    mount   mount
#to mount       to fsck         point           type    pass    at boot options

Swapping my server

I switched my main web server. My beloved RaQ 4i had been working for the last three years 24/7. Being a second hand server with an old hard disk I feel a little bad and some time ago I decided to exchange for anther RaQ 4i I had as spare.

This new/old server has the same specs as the old one but with two Seagate 120 GB in RAID 1 configuration. I more confident with this setup. Obviously it runs Strongbolt 1 (CentOS 4 + BlueQuartz) but with no addon packages installed as I don't need anything outside Strongbolt.

I restored all the files of the old server (the /downloads/ folder) and it was 14 GB's!. Torrentflux isn't installed as I don't use it since a lot of time ago.

Well I think I have server for a lot of time but I want to switch to one of my RaQ 550. They are newer and powerful servers but before I have to change the power supply fan (and I don't need more power in fact).

CentOS 4 kernel 2.6.9-89.0.23 for Cobalt x86 appliances

Well, after my mistake in the configuration of my last kernel (I forgot the RAID setup), last wednesday I compiled the latest CentOS 4 kernel (2.6.9-89.0.23.EL). This time I only prepared a RPM archive and not a BlueQuartz package because to install an RPM can be forced to avoid conflicts with the standard kernel RPM archives from CentOS.

I haven't done a lot of testing with this kernel but seems to work well in RaQ4 with RAID 1 setup and also in a RaQ 550. It has the same features of the old release:

1. Compiled for i586 architechture, compatible with the i686 architechture you can find on RaQ XTR and RaQ 550.
2. Drivers for VIA, SIS and Silicon Image SATA chipsets, to use as storage expansion or use the server as NAS but I don't have time to test yet. Compiled as modules.
3. Drivers for ethernet gigabit cards: Intel PRO/1000, Realtek 8169, Broadcom Tigon3 and Broadcom NetXtremeII. Compiled as modules.
4. Cobalt GenIII and GenV drivers included: the same kernel works on all Cobalt machines. Only tested in Cobalt RaQ 3&4 and RaQ 550. My Qube 3 has SB2 installed and I don't have any XTR (but if I can find one...).
5. SMP for two processors, not tested: usefull for RaQ XTR with two Pentium III.

And something new:

1. Suport for RAID storage (RAID 0, 1, 5, 6 and 10).
2. I2C bus support enabled. It can be useful for RaQ XTR leds but it also needs some software what I don't have (and I can't test)

Unfortunately this fast job  doesn't allow me to work in the problems of shutdown and reboot in the Pentium III machines. Next time...

Like other kernel, if you want to test, the files are here. You can follow this steps:

1. Log in to the server as root.
2. # rpm -i --force http://www.titox-net.es/downloads/cobalt/BlueQuartz/kernel/linux-2.6.9-89.0.23-cobalt/kernel-2.6.9-89.0.23_cobalt.i586.rpm
3. # cd /boot
4. # mv vmlinux.bz2 vmlinux_old.bz2
5. # cp  vmlinux_2.6.9-89.0.23.EL-cobalt.bz2 vmlinux.bz2
6. # reboot

 OBVIOUSLY: USE THIS KERNEL AT YOUR OWN RISK. NO GUARANTEE

Now here you are the boot logs of my RaQ 4r (RAID 1) and a RaQ 550:

Troubleshooting kernel package installation

If after applying my kernel 2.6.9-89.0.20 package the lcd shows 'IP Address not set' , there is a failure in the upgrade installation. This is because yum had installed newer kernels and the rpm software don't want to install the rpm included in this package.

1.- To repair it you need to boot the server with a terminal connected to the serial console port. When the message 'Press spacebar to enter ROM mode' appears, press the space bar.
2.- Once in the ROM menu type 'bfd /boot/vmlinux_old_002.bz2'. This command forces to boot from the old kernel.
3.- Login to the server as root.
4.- # cd /boot
5.- # rpm -i --force http://www.titox-net.es/downloads/cobalt/BlueQuartz/kernel/linux-2.6.9-89.0.20-cobalt/kernel-2.6.9-89.0.20_cobalt.i386.rpm
6.- # ln -s vmlinux-2.6.9-89.0.20.EL-cobalt.bz2 vmlinux.bz2
7.- # reboot

There is a mistake in the kernel config and RAID devices are not working... OK I will compile a new version soon as possible, I need for my new server!!!!!!! Sorry guys.

A big-little scare: Burning RaQ 4 ROM failure!!!!

Yesterday I started to update an spare RaQ 4i to use it as main server at home. The old RaQ 4 have worked the last 3 years without any stop and I feel that I need to change the server for caution.

This second RaQ 4i has two extra ethernets ports and two 120GB Seagate hard disks but now it's loaded with the old Cobalt OS (fully upgraded). I tried to compile MySQL 5.1.46 on it but I has some problems and decided to upgrade the kernel to 2.4.36 (Zeffie's kernel). But this new kernel needs ROM version 2.10.3-ext3.

First I started doing a backup of the old ROM:

[root /root]# ./flashtool -v -r > cobalt-2.3.34-1M.rom

As you can see this server has the standard old ST ROM chip. I upgraded this brand roms with this tool but yesterday it won't run. Fortunately I have a copy of Duncan's flashtool (the small one - 400 KB) and it worked fine. I uploaded via FTP and burned the rom:

[root /root]# ./flashtool -v -w cobalt-2.10.3-ext3-1M.rom
./flashtool: searching for PCI 10b9:7101 : found it at /proc/bus/pci/00/03.0

./flashtool: writing page 1
./flashtool: buffer page 1 does not exist - creating it
./flashtool: writing page 2
./flashtool: buffer page 2 does not exist - creating it
./flashtool: writing page 3
(...)

Very important in this case was to not power off the server: if after a failed rom burn the server is powered off, the server will be a brick, totally dead.

For this reason now I have both flashtool programs mirrored in my server here: http://www.titox-net.es/downloads/cobalt/rom/

Sun Fire V120 as NAS part 7: Gigabit networking

Well, one week ago I received a new Sun Quad GigaSwift PCI card for this server. It's a full lenght PCI card with 64 bits PCI bus, but works in 32 bits PCI bus also.

As you can see in the pictures, the card installation is very easy. Only take out the blank bracket and the small grey plastic, then mount the card in th server slot. Finally return to set the grey plastic which locks the rear part of the GigaSiwft.

The network cards can be configured via the ifconfig utility in Solaris but to make this configurations stored we have to do some more file editting:

1.- The first step is to check if the server detects the GigaSwift card:

# grep ce /etc/path_to_inst
"/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@5/pci@0/network@0" 0 "ce"
"/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@5/pci@0/network@1" 1 "ce"
"/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@5/pci@4/network@2" 2 "ce"
"/pci@1f,0/pci@1/pci@5/pci@4/network@3" 3 "ce"

2.- Second step: create the /etc/hostname.ce0 file containing the name of the server. This name can't be the same in two different ethernet ports. In the 100MB port I'm using v120 as hostname, now I added a 'g' to the name:

# cat /etc/hostname.ce0
v120g

ce0 is the instance number for the port I'm going to use. I only need one port of the four installed with this card. If we want to use more port, more hostname.ce'instance_number' are needed.

3.- Now we have to edit the /etc/inet/hosts file but the vi editor says it's write protected (and I'm doing it beeing root). Like other changes I did before, I uploaded this file to my laptop via FTP, modified with a text editor and then downloaded to the server.

# cd /etc/inet
# cp /export/home/admin/hosts .

# cat /etc/inet/hosts
#
# Internet host table
#
::1     localhost
127.0.0.1       localhost
192.168.2.120   v120    loghost
192.168.5.120   v120g
~

4.- With the two configuration files ready, the card can be turned on:

# ifconfig ce0 plumb 192.168.5.120 up

Unfortunately the trasfer speed is the same as the speed obtained with the 100MB onboard port. Yes, I know there is a lot of parameters to tune, but I will look on the next days. Another problem I found is that: with both Ethernet ports configured (onboard an GigaSwift), when I unplug the onboard port cable, I have a lot of problems to connect with the Gigaswift (well, I can't connect). I think this is because Solaris uses the main port to check against DNS server. Then, I disconfigured the onboard ethernet port:

1.- Unplumb the card:

# ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849 mtu 8232 index 1
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
ce0: flags=1000843 mtu 1500 index 2
        inet 192.168.5.120 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.5.255
        ether 0:3:ba:5c:2b:7d
eri0: flags=1000843 mtu 1500 index 3
        inet 192.168.2.120 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.2.255
        ether 0:3:ba:5c:2b:7d

# ifconfig eri0 unplumb

# ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849 mtu 8232 index 1
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
ce0: flags=1000843 mtu 1500 index 2
        inet 192.168.5.120 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.5.255
        ether 0:3:ba:5c:2b:7d

2.- Delete the /etc/hosts entry (I modified the file in my laptop):

# cd /etc/inet
# cp hosts hosts.old
# cp /export/home/admin/hosts .
# cat hosts

#
# Internet host table
#
::1     localhost
127.0.0.1       localhost
192.168.5.120   v120g   loghost

3. Delete the /etc/hostname.eri0 file (here I moved it):

# cd /etc
# ls hostname*
hostname.ce0   hostname.eri0
# mv hostname.eri0 hostname.ri0.old

4.- Unplumb the ethernet port (and reboot):

# ifconfig eri0 unplumb
# reboot

Now everything works good with only the GigaSwift port 0 attached to the network. Something that is killing me is the low speed transfer via FTP. I can only reach 4.5 MB/s. This is a very low value. While doing a file tranfer I checked the server status with iostat:

# iostat
   tty        sd0           sd3           sd16          sd17           cpu
 tin tout kps tps serv  kps tps serv  kps tps serv  kps tps serv   us sy wt id
   0    1   2   0    4  439   8   28  789   8   26  758   8   31   60 26  0 14

Here I can see that the CPU is hard working. Maybe all the calculations needed by Samba, ftp and the other services joined by the ZFS filesystem are eating a lot of resources. I think I will check to optimize the network parameters for play and then I will reformat the hard disks using SVM instead of ZFS.

P.D.: Do you know what is this? (Check picture)
