    "man pcfs". Perhaps you should mount using PCFS_MNT_FOLDCASE option.


    That causes all file names to be mapped to lower case, which probably
    isn't what's wanted.

    Normally FAT filesystems are case-preserving; files retain the case
    with which they were created, though you can't have two files in the
    same directory whose names differ only in case, and you can refer to a
    file "foo.txt", as "FOO.TXT, etc. Perhaps there's a bug in the
    Solaris implementation of pcfs?

    A good workaround is to copy a zip file or tarball to the USB drive,
    rather than copying the files directly. That way the contained file
    names are stored in the file itself rather than in the filesystem.


    Ken,
    The following excerpt from the solaris express pcfs (7) man
    page seems (at least to me) to account for the observation made by
    the OP. I agree PCFS_MNT_FOLDCASE may not do just what OP wants...
    Had he asked how to preserve names in transfer, rather than how to
    supress peculiar case wrap of file names already on the USB drive,
    I would have offered the same advise as you.

    Bob
    File Systems pcfs(7FS)

    When creating a file name, pcfs creates a short file name if
    it fits the DOS short file name format, otherwise it
    creates a long file name. This is because long file names
    take more directory space. Because the root directory of a
    pcfs file system is fixed size, long file names in the root
    directory should be avoided if possible.

    When displaying file names, pcfs shows them exactly as they
    are on the media. This means that short names are displayed
    as uppercase and long file names retain their case. Earlier
    versions of pcfs folded all names to lowercase, which can be
    forced with the PCFS_MNT_FOLDCASE mount option. All file
    name searches within pcfs, however, are treated as if they
    were uppercase, so readme.txt and ReAdMe.TxT refer to the
    same file.
    .

    This is a Microsoft bug.

    M$ ignores the case and even lists filenames that fit into 8.3 as
    lowercase.

    M$ uncorrectly creates FAT uppercase names for a lowercase filename
    that fits into 8.3

    If you use Solaris to create the filenames, Solaris correctly uses VFAT
    names ;-)

    Hi Kyle

    It sounds like maybe the box is getting hammered - Is it really busy? There

    are steps you can take to tune the stack on Solaris boxes, you can make

    changes to set numerous variables in order to increase throughput.

    Below is a script I use when setting up web servers (Sol 10) which seems to

    increase throughput - YMMV of course, and I wouldn't blindly apply the

    script, take some time to work through it and identify if it would be useful

    to you. Some features may not work on older Solaris versions, again YMMV.

    As far as I'm aware the alert is generated when the box thinks it's under a

    SYN flood attack (and the unestablished connection queue becomes full).

    /dev/tcp tcp_conn_req_max_q0 - unestablished connection queue (incomplete

    handshake)
    /dev/tcp tcp_conn_req_max_q - established connection queue

    Are two parameters that you can tune in order to increase the queue sizes.

    http://www.informit.com/articles/article.asp?p=101138&seqNum=5&rl=1 has more

    info - it seems to be a pretty good article.

    Right, and then I'd have thought netstat would have showed
    tcpListenDropQ0 > 0. The box had not been rebooted between
    the message and when I ran netstat. Maybe I'll set up a test
    box with a very low setting and see if I can get the error
    generated and get tcpListenDropQ0 incremented. Thanks.

    4064.1 KB/sec divided by 127.0 writes/sec = 32 KB writes.

    This is too small for LTO. LTO minimum for reasonable performance is 256
    KB writes.

    Performance is crawling because LTO drive has to slow down. You are not
    feeding data to it fast enough for it to run at full speed.

    Bottleneck here is how you are using ufsdump. Your tape drive and hard
    drives are fast. :)

    You might want to try ufsdump's 'b 512' argument to tell it to write
    data to tape in 512 block chunks (256 KB).

    ufsdump may limit it to 126 block chunks; not sure, so test and verify.

    Ummmm, well then, yes you *do* know the average, it's 73KB,
    and yes, that qualifies as lots of little files. There is nothing
    that will back this up as fast as you (apparently) want. Star
    will be faster than gtar or ufsdump, but not 10X faster or
    anything like that.

    Search this group for "Backup tools too slow" and you'll get some
    education.


    service in spare time in our company, otherwise we would have MS
    everywhere :)


    But the backups would still be slow. :-)


    2. If installa 5'th disk in the E250(which makes a total of 5 147 GB
    disks), would some kind of SW raid help this?


    Striping would help a little bit, but not 1.5X or anything like that.
    It doesn't sound like you're ready for that in any case.


    3. We where planning to more to S10 in december last year, but S10 was
    delay(update) so we are still on S9, would S10 and ZFS help us?


    You're getting 4MB/s IIRC, that's not bad. ZFS might help a little,
    but ZFS provides flexibility and control, not so much improved
    speed. ZFS cannot change average seek time on your drives.

    What you *can* do is reduce the amount of time that live
    data changes on the drive reduce the integrity of your
    backup. The "backup window". You do this by either taking
    a snapshot of the file system, and backing up the snapshot,
    or doing an additional mirror of the file system, and do a
    detach/backup/re-attach of that extra mirror.

    ZFS makes the snapshot pretty easy. You can snapshot
    your UFS filesystems, too, see fssnap. Last time I tried
    incremental ufsdump on fssnap snapshots, it didn't handle
    the timestamps correctly, but that was on Sol8, maybe
    it's fixed now.

    I reiterate, you should search this group, you'll get a lot
    of good information.

    routing
    table to allow the global zone to access the non-global zone. So much for the
    extra security...

    I don't need an entry in routing table,
    neither need I an IP address in the global zone,
    in order to filter or RDR the packets for a non-global zone's subnet.


    And when it comes to using routing daemons (in.routed / routed)
    which can IMO be a very important part of a somewhat more advanced
    router then your argument becomes plain out wrong.


    Again, routing and firewalling are two very different activities.
    Your statement is perfectly correct for routing but wrong
    for packet filtering and NAT/RDR. Please give an example of
    advanced firewall that needs a routing daemon.


    There is no 'security advantage' to be gained here since the actual routing
    will always be done on the global zone.


    There's no routing in the global zone, but RDR tables only.
    No routing daemons, either. Just a kernel module.
    Totally different level in OS as well as in the IP stack.


    The only real security advantage is to place network services
    (http, mta, etc.) servers in your non-global zones.


    I agree, but this has nothing to do with the topic.

    Security advantage here is that administrator can avoid any
    management traffic on subnets *and* any rule managenent activity
    in virtual hosts being filtered, NATed or RDR'd.

    Even though I use a separate Solaris 10 box as dedicated firewall,
    I still consider it reasonable to configure the extranet and intranet
    IP addresses in two separate non-global zones, and use a third
    non-global zone (on a separate physical segment) for interactive
    access.

    From this management zone, I can ssh to a global zone via internal

    virtual interface not visible from "production" zones.

    Comparing with a traditional 3-segment firewall (intra, extra, mgmt),
    I assign this 3 "functions" to 3 isolated machines, which gives me
    some additional piece of mind.

    Andrei

    Ask Sun to remove the arbitrary minimum of "nbpi=1048576" for EFI

    filesystems with lots of inodes take a long time to fsck. To me

    If you can get by with .99T you can get as many inodes as you need.
    Based on the df output you presented your current inode density is
    around 211k so you could use "newfs -i 100000" on the .99T filesystem
    to get a little extra usable space by making fewer inodes.

    ZFS doesn't suffer from this limitation. I've also heard that with
    the sources from OpenSolaris it is easy to bypass the EFI inode limit.

    Thanks to Jim and Peter on this. I opened a ticket with Sun and indeed
    they told me the limitation for TB filesystems is 1024*1024 / TB. I
    will ask sun to remove this limit as part of my ticket, but I will not
    hold my breath.

    I am going to look at ZFS again, but it is still not clear to me if it
    is in general release, i.e. supported under Solaris 10. (3/05 or 1/06).
    Maybe it is time to start testing ZFS on some QC systems.

    I am going to look at ZFS again, but it is still not clear to me if it
    is in general release, i.e. supported under Solaris 10. (3/05 or 1/06).
    Maybe it is time to start testing ZFS on some QC systems.


    No. It will be included in the 6/06 release.

    I need advice when configuring ntp on cluster.

    For now it uses /etc/inet/ntp.conf.cluster and server 127.127.1.0 as time

    But because of that this cluster at this moment 12 minutes faster than my

    whole environment.

    I haven't set up a cluster, although I have used ntp a fair bit.

    My advice would be that you need to get your clock calibrated
    on every server before you set them up to try to run independently.
    The most straightforward way I can think of to do that is to run
    ntpd against an external server for a week or so, then let it build
    an ntp.drift file that it can use to compensate for the natural
    drift of the system's clock.


    How can I configure it to use external ntp server?
    As I can see, /etc/init.d/xntpd.cluster stopes when it find

    /etc/inet/ntp.conf, so I assume I should still use

    /etc/inet/ntp.conf.cluster.

    Can I simply change field "server 127.127.1.0" to i.e. "server

    ntp.server.my"? Will nodes be still synchronized than?

    If you have Internet connectivity available, the easiest thing would
    be to just synchronize your servers to external servers. If you
    really want to ensure that your local machines stay in sync with
    each other, you can solve that in one of at least two ways:

    (1) synchronize each internal server with enough external servers
    that the chances of one of them being far off is really small,
    just because it would require too many failures (of external
    servers) for that to be likely to happen, or
    (2) synchronize one server with external servers, then synchronize
    your other servers to it; then your internal servers will not
    all be on equal footing because one will be the master, but
    they should still stay in sync for a while if you lose internet
    connectivity for a day or two.

    In general, keep in mind that just setting up a cluster of servers
    trying to sync to each other will not give you reliable and
    accurate timekeeping. Computers make OK clocks but not good ones,
    and in order to keep in sync, you need to ultimately be drawing
    your information from a good clock (either from a public ntp server
    or from a hardware clock, like a GPS receiver).


    My actulaf conf files are (both same):
    server 127.127.1.0
    peer clusternode1-priv prefer
    peer clusternode2-priv
    driftfile /var/ntp/ntp.drift
    filegen peerstats file peerstats type day enable
    filegen loopstats file loopstats type day enable
    filegen clockstats file clockstats type day enable

    how should they look after I switch to external ntp source?

    Just look at what they suggest doing at http://www.pool.ntp.org/ .
    If you are in Europe, you should be able to put

    server 0.europe.pool.ntp.org
    server 1.europe.pool.ntp.org
    server 2.europe.pool.ntp.org

    and remove all the "peer" lines, and that should probably do it
    for you.
