[13:53]<sjczrvns>hi everyone
[13:54]<sjczrvns>did anyone get openafs to run under solaris (nevada) on intel i386
[13:58]<sjczrvns>or could anyone tell me what's wrong if `/usr/sbin/modload /kernel/fs/afs` results in "can't load module: Invalid argument".
[14:02]<sjczrvns>too bad.
[14:02]<sjczrvns>cu
[14:38]<rsmm>sorend: try modload fs/afs
[14:39]<zdw>he left, asyd
[14:39]<rsmm>ah, yes
[14:39]<rsmm>too bad
[14:39]<zdw>no patience.. ;)
[14:52]<zdw>btw. can i "ping" a host by just knowing his mac-address, so that i know if it is reachable?
[14:53]<rsmm>well, you can send an arp who has (or who is, never remember by heart) but not directly a ping (need to look arp cache)
[14:54]<zdw>hmm, thanks, i never tried that.. but how to send an arp request?
[14:55]<ryrxvswyd>arping can "ping" a mac address
[14:55]<ryrxvswyd>just dont expect a certain reply
[14:55]<ryrxvswyd>and libnet can send arp who-has packets
[14:55]<ryrxvswyd>but, that's not really useful
[14:55]<ryrxvswyd>because that maps from ip to mac
[14:55]<ryrxvswyd>and you already have the mac :)
[14:56]<zdw>right
[14:56]<[y]>hi guys, i ve a quess. I need to make a web project and i ve to use server side java on it. does solaris have all instruments to do it ?
[14:56]<xggzdt9>why do want to "ping" a machine if you don't know its IP adress in the first place?
[14:57]<ryrxvswyd>because for one, you could have a fresh machine
[14:57]<ryrxvswyd>but you dont know its ip
[14:57]<xggzdt9>you could check your own arp table for that entry, if that machine is active.
[14:57]<ryrxvswyd>but do know its mac, because for example, that's written on the box
[14:57]<xggzdt9>then check with your dhcp server logs?
[14:58]<ryrxvswyd>it might not do dhcp
[14:58]<xggzdt9>ok...
[15:00]<zdw>henry54: well, the thing is: the host (which is in fact a sun ray) is located at another subnet and unable to fetch an ip by dhcp from the subnet i am sitting in. i can ping the gateway of the other subnet so i think my routing info is correct, isn't it? i just want to determine why it is not getting an ip, and if it is a routing problem or a misconfiguration in the sun ray server software
[15:00]<dja>DHCP is a local-net thing
[15:00]<rsmm>like ARP.. :)
[15:00]<dja>if you want it to cross a router, the router needs to be setup to forward DHCP requests
[15:01]<dja>if you want to check if it's working or not, either use snoop ("snoop port 67 or port 68") or run dhcpd with the -d option
[15:01]<zdw>correct
[15:02]<zdw>the thing is, it already worked while the sun ray server was based on jds linux, so the router seems to be configured well. i migrated to solaris10 this weekend..
[15:02]<xggzdt9>yes, or you could check the routers arp table after restarting the SR.
[15:02]<zdw>btw. i am snooping right now :)
[15:02]<dja>right. and did you setup the sunray stuff in the DHCP server?
[15:03]<dja>in.dhcpd -d will give you the best output
[15:03]<dja>you'll need to disable it first tho - svcadm disable -t dhcp-server
[15:07]<zdw><Doc> right. and did you setup the sunray stuff in the DHCP server? <- actually the sun ray server install takes care of it itself, but i've never configured a sun ray interconnect on solaris10, so i'm not sure about this
[15:09]<zdw>before digging in to the dhcpd-stuff, i'd like to crawl through my snoop-output first. any ideas what to look for?
[15:10]<zdw>OLD-BROADCAST -> BROADCAST DHCP/BOOTP DHCPDISCOVER
[15:10]<zdw> ? -> (multicast) ETHER Type=027C (LLC/802.3), size = 64 bytes
[15:10]<zdw>perhaps this is quite useful?
[15:10]<zdw>shall i look for arp requests or dhcp stuff?
[15:22]<vnfaj>hi
[15:22]<vnfaj>where di I get ZFS from ?
[15:22]<vnfaj>s/di/do/
[15:22]<vnfaj>(I'm running sol10 downloaded of fthe Sun site)
[15:22]<rsmm>solaris express for the moment.
[15:23]<vnfaj>oh.
[15:23]<rsmm>or wait few seconds for sol10 update 2
[15:23]<vnfaj>ok ;)
[15:23]<vnfaj>thanks
[15:27]<xggzdt9>rmx: ARP request yes, but it's still tedious... there might be too many other boxes broadcasting...
[15:27]<zdw>henry: yeah, seems so
[15:28]<xggzdt9>if you expect your dhcp server to assign an IP, you should tail on its logs...
[15:29]<zdw>alright
[15:29]<dja>a few seconds for update 2?
[15:29]<xggzdt9>haven't set up a Sunray server myself yet, but it would be a nice exercise...
[15:29]<rsmm>oups
[15:29]<rsmm>weeks
[15:29]<dja>if you're lucky...
[15:30]<xggzdt9>Doc: thought it was meant as a joke, the seconds..
[15:31]<dja>i think the original release date (going back almost a year) was about today
[15:33]<-- przf_mjrk xrs puy>exit")
[17:53]<cnfnsvzz>.oo(can't find "top" either)
[17:53]<cfuq>would the DC-DC converter in a E420R going bad/gone bad cause it not to get any console whatsoever?
[17:53]<jqrmmyav>use prstat instead
[17:54]<cnfnsvzz>psrinfo -pv
[17:54]<cnfnsvzz>The physical processor has 32 virtual processor
[17:54]<cnfnsvzz>nice going
[17:54]<dycnpjj>is it likely I will be bottle necking scsi disks on a webserver pushing contant 12Mbit/s of maily large video clips?
[17:55]<cnfnsvzz>1.5MB are not bottlenecking any HDD ...
[17:55]<dycnpjj>yeah.. i don't understand then
[17:55]<cnfnsvzz>how many streams? :)
[17:56]<dycnpjj>no "streams" progressive downloads of wmvs..
[17:56]<dycnpjj>30-40 at a time on avg
[17:56]<cnfnsvzz>well
[17:56]<cnfnsvzz>that's 30-40 * 1.5MB/sec ...
[17:56]<zdw>mikefoo: are you running a pr0n-server? ;)
[17:56]<dycnpjj>no
[17:56]<zdw>damn..
[17:57]<dycnpjj>50-100meg clips
[17:57]<lnnzan>so you have a 100Mbit connection to your clients?
[17:57]<dycnpjj><Celestar> that's 30-40 * 1.5MB/sec ...
[17:57]<dycnpjj>eh?
[17:57]<lnnzan>40 * 1.5MB... wait, thats more like gigabit
[17:57]<cnfnsvzz>root@T20-1:[/etc]# chmod 755 /home
[17:57]<cnfnsvzz>chmod: WARNING: can't change /hom
[18:53]<ygsjgmyr>and you've ran ptree and mpstat, prstat, etc, and you can account for everything running?
[18:54]<dycnpjj>oh its leenux btw, but still, if it was solaris i wouldn't have a problem, heh
[18:54]<dycnpjj>none of the linux channels seems to know anything :\
[18:54]<dycnpjj>ahh sorry..
[18:54]<ygsjgmyr>jesus h. fucking christ.
[18:54]<ygsjgmyr>you think it's important to tell someone what fucking operating system you're using?
[18:55]<ygsjgmyr>Solaris and Linux ARE NOT THE SAME FUCKING THING.
