OpenIndiana
Web :: an enthusiastic austrian solaris user
OpenIndiana (OI) is a fork of OpenSolaris.
Since the acquisition of Sun by Oracle OpenSolaris has become somewhat less open.
These are notes relating to my install of OI.
Some of this is based on work by others - their work is appreciated and noted.
Some commands in Solaris are quite different from Linux; some of the following may seem a bit basic but is nonetheless relevant.
Mount CDROM
root@am-oi-01:~# mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/c1t1d0s2 /media root@am-oi-01:~# ls /media
Install VirtualBox guest additions
My OI runs in a VirtualBox VM, this explains how to install guest additions.
## Your cd might be different - depends on VirtualBox version root@am-oi-01:~# cd /media/VBOXADDITIONS_4.1.0_73009 root@am-oi-01:~# pkgadd -d VBoxSolarisAdditions.pkg
Upgrade from OI_148 to OI_151
Updated 2012-05-04
OI_151a has been available for a while. I've left this here just to document the OS upgrade process.

Troubleshooting:
If you see an error similar to the following then you have most likely used the wrong disk id:prtvtoc: /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0: Unable to read Disk geometry errno = 0x6
- Attach second disk to rpool - might take a short time
root@am-oi-01:~# pfexec zpool attach -f rpool c1t0d0s0 c1t2d0s0
- Check status of rpool - Make sure to wait until resilver is done before rebooting.
## Resilvering -- root@oi0001:~# zpool status -v rpool pool: rpool state: ONLINE status: One or more devices is currently being resilvered.

The package being installed appears to contain processes which will
have their effective user or group ids set upon execution. History
has shown that these types of processes can be a source of security
problems on your system. If you choose not to install these as setuid
files, installation will proceed but these specific files will be
installed as regular files with setuid and/or setgid permissions
reset. Note that sane operation of the software being installed may
require that these files be installed with setuid or setgid
permissions as delivered; thus choosing to install them as regular
files may cause inapropriate operation. If you wish to stop
installation of this package, enter 'q' to quit.

Fonts
## Download: http://www.freedesktop.org/software/fontconfig/webfonts/
Unpack webfonts.tar.gz
Go to msfonts directory
Open, e.g., verdan32.exe
Then open the TTF files in font viewer and click install.
Fonts will be installed in, e.g., /home/alan/.fonts and will be accessible by OpenOffice and other apps.
Webmin
## Download: http://www.webmin.com/solaris.html
That page also has install instructions.
Install suggests that admin user will created with current root password, that didn't work for me.
Changing the admin (root) webmin password was easy enough:
root@am-oi-01:/home/alan/Downloads# /opt/webmin/changepass.pl /etc/webmin root xxxxxx Updated password of Webmin user root
Firefox
Download Firefox 12 from here
Unpack the dowloaded file using archive manager or bunzip2
Extract the resulting tar archive into a directory and run firefox-bin.
Works for me.

ZFS
Sharing ZFS filesystem
ZFS best practices
Oracle Solaris 11 Express Information Library
Oracle Solaris ZFS Administration Guide
- Create a storage pool
This creates a storage pool called 'backup'root@oi0001:~# zpool create backup mirror c1t3d0 c1t4d0 root@oi0001:~#
Pool is automatically mounted.
root@oi0001:~# df -k /backup Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on backup 1023934404 31 1023934373 1% /backup
- Create nested filesystem and change default mountpoint
root@oi0001:~# zfs create -o mountpoint=/vm rpool/vm root@oi0001:~# df -k /vm Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on rpool/vm 1016477831 31 1016477800 1% /vm
- List available storage pools.

Zones
Zone quick setup
Create the zone using zonecfg

Install the zone
## Note that mountpoint permissions must be changed before zone will install
