Resilient 110 - supported?

I was wondering if the Resilient 110 is supported, even in -current. 
Anyway, I am not sure if it'll require some antiquated version of 
Solaris or what. Anyone with *any* info on this machine much appreciated.

I have not, but then I have a lot of memory so I never swap.
Are you running any other threaded processes?

RE : Re: SS20 random hanging.

Hello,

I'm back w/ this problem : so I have recompiled bind
w/o threading support.
Unfortunately, it wasn't enough and my SS20 hanged
again yesterday.

As far I can see, there wasn't any special activity on
the machine and, suddenly, the load became very high
and the machine unresponsive.

I'm trying now to install 3.1 kernel.

Any tip welcome to solve this nasty issue. Does
someone encountered this kind of hanging ?

Best regards,

Laurent

re: RE : Re: SS20 random hanging.


do you have DDB configured?  can you break to ddb when it hangs
and see where it is?  that's a serial BREAK or L1-A (stop-A) to
enter ddb, and then "bt" at the db> prompt.

I host 3 web sites on this machine and all of them
process images. As consequence, the 224MB I have on
this machine is not enough to avoid swamping.

> Are you running any other threaded processes?

I run only stock NetBSD 3.0 applications
+ BIND9 recompiled from pkgsrc w/o threading support, 
+ Apache 2.2 w/o threading support
+ PHP 4 with GD enabled
+ PostgreSQL 8.1.4

Do you know if there is any 3.0 daemon that is
threaded and need to be reinstalled ?

Ok, if I succeed to build a 3.1 kernel (for the
moment, I have a problem w/ an undefined variable), I

According to this  
http://sunsite.uakom.sk/sunworldonline/swol-11-1996/swol-11- 
resilience.html it's basically a bunch of SS5 running as a redundant  
cluster or something like that. If stock Solaris works so should  
NetBSD. Worth a try I'd say.

Re: Near-complete NetBSD/sparc build environment (sun4m), free to good home, Dallas TX (no shipping)

I could pick it up since I am in the area this weekend coming up.
Can definately put them to development use.

Let me know where in Dallas.

Thanks!

Near-complete NetBSD/sparc build environment (sun4m), free to good home, Dallas TX (no shipping)

I've been doing some housecleaning.

I'm giving NetBSD/sparc team first dibs to the stash; if nobody bites, 
I'll open it up to craigslist and let some local linux nerd have at 
them.  :)

Winner must make arrangements to meet me over an upcoming weekend to 
transfer equipment.  You must take all listed hardware off of my hands 
at that time.

There are no guarantees, these are "AS IS" with no express or implied 
warranty.  Most were working in my dev/production environment when 
pulled (hence the population of 100mbit SBUS cards).  If they POST (see 
below), they should be good.  If not, there's probably a bad CPU module 
in "slot 0" and some tinkering could bring it to life.

I have six sun4m systems in assorted states of functionality and one 
empty chassis.  One system is a Tatung TurboSPARC SparcStation-5, the 
others are Sun or Tatung SS20s with either SuperSPARC or HyperSPARC 
processors.

There are five Sun keyboards, which are all original "Type 5" variety 
with detachable cable (I have more than five cables, you get them all). 
  Four of them have the control key next to the `A' key, one is "PC Kbd 
layout".

Add three type-5 roller-ball mice, three type-6 roller-ball mice, a tub 
full of video cables/adapters for 13W3->BNC or 13W3->VGA, and a 
PS/2->Sun mouse+kbd converter box (lets you use PS/2 keyboard on Sun 
console).

Spreading a FS on more than 1 FS.

Hello all,

I have totally fulfilled the disk where I backup all
my photos.
I wonder if there is possible to spread a file system
on more than 1 disk on NetBSD 2.1 ? I mean, not to
mount another disk in a sub directory, but to have 1
unique FS spread on several disk, a la VxFS of HP-UX.

Thanks & regards,

Laurent

Hi,
See ccd(4), ccdconfig(8), raid(4) and raidctl(8) manpages. You'll need
to evacuate your disk and recreate the filesystem. Be aware that in the
case of ccd(4), if one disk fails, all your data is hosed.
