p2v is physical to virtual. which means you can migrate solaris from real HW to solaris zone.

1. create zone on solaris11.

root@bnsol11a:~# zonecfg -z liuedy-z10
Use ‘create’ to begin configuring a new zone.
zonecfg:liuedy-z10> create -b
zonecfg:liuedy-z10> set brand=solaris10
zonecfg:liuedy-z10> set zonepath=/zone/liuedy-z10
zonecfg:liuedy-z10> set autoboot=true
zonecfg:liuedy-z10> add net
zonecfg:liuedy-z10:net> set address=10.240.3.180
zonecfg:liuedy-z10:net> set physical=net0
zonecfg:liuedy-z10:net> end
zonecfg:liuedy-z10> info
zonename: liuedy-z10
zonepath: /zone/liuedy-z10
brand: solaris10
autoboot: true
bootargs:

configure-allowed-address: true
physical: net0

zonecfg:liuedy-z10> verify
net: address cannot be specified if ip-type = exclusive
ip-type is set to ‘exclusive’ by default.
liuedy-z10: Invalid argument
zonecfg:liuedy-z10> set ip-type=shared
zonecfg:liuedy-z10> verify
zonecfg:liuedy-z10> commit
zonecfg:liuedy-z10> exit
root@bnsol11a:~# zoneadm list -civ
ID NAME STATUS PATH BRAND IP
0 global running / solaris shared
– liuedy-z10 configured /zone/liuedy-z10 solaris10 shared

2. create flash archive of old solaris.
// -S don’t cacluate the archive size. -L method cpio
[root@beisoltest02 ~]# flarcreate -S -n sol10_new -L cpio /net/10.240.3.210/export/zone/flash_store/sol10_new.flar
Archive format requested is cpio
Full Flash

[root@beisoltest02 ~]#

3. install the zone

root@bnsol11a:~# zoneadm -z liuedy-z10 install -p -a /export/zone/flash_store/sol10_new.flar

this is caused by the patch level doesn’t match the necessary for migration. so it’s a good idea to keep the system up to date.
upgrade from SunOS 5.10/Generic_137138-09 to Generic_147441-25 fixed the issue.

Solutions:

kill the ldap_cachemgr.

root # file /var/run/ldap_cache_door
/var/run/ldap_cache_door: door to ldap_cachemgr[1299]

kill 1299

then bounce the ldapclient, more details to trace the issue.

check your ~user/.bashrc or ~user/.profile or ~user/.cshrc anything related with your environment.

remove the echo from above files.

addons: check free memory on Solaris without top
vmstat 1 2 | tail -1 | awk '{printf "%d%s\n", ($5*4)/1024, "MB" }'

Solution:
Install the latest lsof version

wget ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/lsof_4.86.tar.bz2
gtar xf lsof_4.86.tar.bz2
cd lsof_4.86_src
./Configure solaris
or ./Configure solariscc
make

bash-3.2$ sqlplus

SQL*Plus: Release 11.1.0.6.0 – Production on Sat Sep 22 04:33:02 2012

Install Steps:

rpm -Uvh http://rundeck.org/latest.rpm
yum install rundesk
/etc/init.d/rundeckd start

http://your_host:4440

Default account: admin/admin

Will try mention as much details doing the installation as I can.

Preparation:
1. OS, Although HDP offically support CentOS 5.x/ RHEL 5.x. we still found some issue when doing the installation.
such as missing nodes when doing the deployment(can be fixed by update php5.1 to php5.3 but will bring more issue).
so we skip CentOS 5.x and use CentOS 6.x. it’s cool and have less issue , recommend install the OS with minimal packages.
# tips, please update the release file.
sed -i.bak ‘s/6.2/5.8/g’ /etc/redhat-release

2. Disable Selinux and Iptables.
/etc/sysconfig/selinux SELINUX=disabled
chkconfig iptables off
reboot

3. password less auth
ssh-keygen
ssh-copy-id target_host (don’t forget the deployment host itself.)

4. DNS, add the new nodes to DNS with PTR record. or you can add them to /etc/hosts.

Start Installation:

1. Enable Repo
# ruby repo
rpm -Uvh http://passenger.stealthymonkeys.com/rhel/6/passenger-release.noarch.rpm
# HDP
rpm -Uvh http://public-repo-1.hortonworks.com/HDP-1.0.0.12/repos/centos5/hdp-release-1.0.0.12-1.el5.noarch.rpm
# EPEL
rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-7.noarch.rpm

2. Install HMC (HDP core package)
Note: when you start the HMC. it ask you download JDK. recommend download by yourself from Oracle site.

[root@hmhdp01 ~]# yum install -y hmc php-process
[root@hmhdp01 ~]# service hmc start
Do you agree to Oracle’s Java License at
/usr/share/hmc/licenses/ORACLE_JDK_LICENSE.txt?(y/n)y
Would you like us to download the JDK binaries for you?(y/n)n
Please download jdk-6u31-linux-x64.bin and jdk-6u31-linux-i586.bin from Oracle to /var/run/hmc/downloads/
Starting HMC Installer [ OK ]
Starting httpd:
Starting HMC
3. Deploy HDP.
3.1
# update puppet for the nagios. remove php-pecl-json. because php5.3 already include it by default.
line 11+ /etc/puppet/master/modules/hdp-nagios/manifests/server/packages.pp
3.2
open http://your_deploy_host/hmc/html/

Then next follow the guide. Good luck.

Solution:
go to single user mode.
ok. try “canmount=noauto” don’t automatically mount zfs.

for i in `zfs list|grep /|grep -v swap|awk ‘{print $1}’`;do zfs set canmount=noauto $i;done
then init 3. it works.

now try manually mount one by one. you may know which caused the crash. if none report crashed. don’t read following lines.

hmm, crashed when try mount localpool/some_disk . others fine. if you don’t have important files. Be CareFul when you do created, i don’t grantee your Data.

Warning: Data lost. You’d better know what u are doing!!!!
zfs destroy localpool/some_disk
zfs create -o mountpoint=/mymnt localpool/some_disk
zfs set quota=3g localpool/some_disk

now try mount all the zfs. works fine.

change the mount to automatically mount.
for i in `zfs list|grep /|grep -v swap|awk ‘{print $1}’`;do zfs set canmount=on $i;done
