Second, while the old system may have a GB card in it, it may not be
able to feed the card at wire speed. Slower CPU and I/O bus, slower
disks etc. Not much you can do about that.

Thanks everyone for your help. They are just going to rebuild the
system.

Anyone know of a USB or Ethernet controlled switch for Solaris?

I would like to be able to turn an old HP C3600 workstation on and off
from my house, when it is located in the garage. The machine does not
support wake up on LAN or anything clever. There is no remote
management console either.
There is however a power switch on the front panel, which I believe is

hi diego, thx for ur reply. it's emc but not hds so no horcm.conf
pls find more info below: -
DEVICE TYPE DISK GROUP STATUS
c4t0d0s2 sliced - (datadg_1) online
c4t0d1s2 sliced - (datadg_1) online
Sounds like a splitting problem. Check the /etc/horcm.conf and check

This is what I did in the end, pkgrm'd the SUNWj6* packages, downloaded
jdk-6u17-solaris-i586.tar.Z and installed the packages afresh.

Have you changed tcp_max_buf/tcp_xmit_hiwat/tcp _recv_hiwat on your
boxes? (cf the "solaris downloads much slower than linux" thread)

Correction, it was 25 GB in 7 hours, not 2.5, so a rate of about 10 MB/s - still

What program would you use as 'local buffer' though? I can see how this would
work in principle, but are unsure how to do this in practice.
I'm using wget (and have been for 7 hours), but have only tranfered 2.5 GB,
which is an average of about 1 MB/s. Clearly well below the 90 MB/s I can
achieve on large files via ftp. Therefore 'wget' does not seem to be the answer

Re: Can't expand zfs pool with new devices

2009-11-06T18:19:49Z

Ah, my mistake. I got the impression that expansion was automatic until
a recent OpenSolaris build, which added "autoexpand" as a settable flag.
Oh well. Easy enough to drop this box to single-user and export/import.
Thanks Casper and Cindy,
Colin

Re: Can't expand zfs pool with new devices

Hi Colin,
You should be able to export and import the pool to see the expanded
pool size. A reboot might work too.
This issue is fixed in the Solaris Nevada release, build 117.

Re: Can't expand zfs pool with new devices

I'm afraid that you need to remove or export/import the pool.
(Limitation later fixed in OpenSolaris)

ncftp will do recursive FTP, if I'm not mistaken (and is a really great
ftp client in general).
Look up HPN-SSH - High performance networking additions to the SSH source
code. Amongst other things, it allows you to use "none" as a cipher with
SSH, and also can multithread a connection, using both of your CPUs. As a
