Some Gathering Solaris system information Stuff

Gathering Solaris system information
A UNIX administrator may be asked to gather system information about his/her Solaris systems. Here are the commands used on a Solaris 7 system to gather various system information.

Processors
The psrinfo utility displays processor information. When run in verbose mode, it lists the speed of each processor and when the processor was last placed on-line (generally the time the system was started unless it was manually taken off-line).

/usr/sbin/psrinfo -v
Status of processor 1 as of: 12/12/02 09:25:50
Processor has been on-line since 11/17/02 21:10:09.
The sparcv9 processor operates at 400 MHz,
and has a sparcv9 floating point processor.
Status of processor 3 as of: 12/12/02 09:25:50
Processor has been on-line since 11/17/02 21:10:11.
The sparcv9 processor operates at 400 MHz,
and has a sparcv9 floating point processor.

The psradm utility can enable or disable a specific processor.

To disable a processor:
/usr/sbin/psradm -f processor_id

To enable a processor:
/usr/sbin/psradm -n processor_id

The psrinfo utility will display the processor_id when run in either standard or verbose mode.

RAM
The prtconf utility will display the system configuration, including the amount of physical memory.

To display the amount of RAM:

/usr/sbin/prtconf | grep Memory
Memory size: 3072 Megabytes


Disk space
Although there are several ways you could gather this information, the following command lists the amount of kilobytes in use versus total kilobytes available in local file systems stored on physical disks. The command does not include disk space usage from the /proc virtual file system, the floppy disk, or swap space.

df -lk | egrep -v "Filesystem|/proc|/dev/fd|swap" | awk '{ total_kbytes += $2 } { used_kbytes += $3 } END { printf "%d of %d kilobytes in use.\n", used_kbytes, total_kbytes }'
19221758 of 135949755 kilobytes in use.

You may want to convert the output to megabytes or gigabytes and display the statistics as a percentage of utilization.

The above command will list file system usage. If you are interested in listing physical disks (some of which may not be allocated to a file system), use the format command as the root user, or the iostat -En command as a non-privileged user.


Processor and kernel bits
If you are running Solaris 2.6 or earlier, you are running a 32-bit kernel.

Determine bits of processor:
isainfo -bv

Determine bits of Solaris kernel:
isainfo -kv

Make an ISO file of dvd

make sure media isn't mounted while running dd.

#dd if=/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0p0 of=/cdrom.iso

Mounting ISO image in solaris

1-assign device to file

#lofiadm -a /tmp/image.iso /dev/lofi/1

2-mount device to /mnt

$mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/lofi/1 /mnt

Solaris 10 IPMP Link Based Failure Detection in Virtualbox

Configuring Solaris 10 IPMP Link Based Failure Detection in Virtualbox for just testing purpose

Define 2 NIC in a Solarisx86 vm

1-view configuration

# ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=2001000849 mtu 8232 index 1
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000
e1000g0: flags=201000843 mtu 1500 index 2
inet 192.168.1.14 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
groupname grp1
ether 8:0:27:3e:5b:87
e1000g1: flags=201000843 mtu 1500 index 3
inet 0.0.0.0 netmask ff000000 broadcast 0.255.255.255
groupname grp1
ether 8:0:27:41:a1:63

2- check files mapping to your nic's under /etc/

# more /etc/hostname*
::::::::::::::
/etc/hostname.e1000g0
::::::::::::::
solsrvr2 netmask + broadcast + group grp1 up
::::::::::::::
/etc/hostname.e1000g1
::::::::::::::
group grp1 up

3-check if mpathd is running or not

# ps -ef | grep mpathd
root 158 1 0 16:48:03 ? 0:01 /usr/lib/inet/in.mpathd -a

4- mpathd configuration under /etc/default/

# ls -l /etc/default/mpathd

5-testing you can disconnect network cable to simulate disconnecting cable

Viewing disks in solaris

bash-3.00# echo|format

multihomed host e.g muliple ips on same NIC

1-under

/etc/hosts

enter an entry as follows

192.168.10.10 myhost

2-under

/etc/netmasks

add an entry as follows

192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0

3-create a file point to your NIC for example

#touch /etc/hostname.e1000g0:1

add hostname for example

myhost

4-type the following command

#ifconfig e1000g0:1 plumb

5- assign ips

#ifconfig e1000g0:1 192.168.10.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

Add default route to sun solaris

You can add default route
by issuing the following command

#route add default 192.168.0.1

you can verify by viewing entries

$netstat -rn

Configure ipfilter on Solaris10 as a host based firewall

1- Start by check ipfilter status if it's running you can go ahead and configure rules

-bash-3.00$ svcs -a|grep -i ipfil
online 10:29:37 svc:/network/ipfilter:default

if it's disabled enable it

#svcadm enable ipfilter

2- Display rules

#bash-3.00ipfstat -io
block out all
pass out quick on lo0 all
pass out quick on eri0 proto tcp/udp from eri0/32 to any port = domain with keep state
pass out quick on eri0 proto tcp from eri0/32 to any port = http keep state
pass out quick on eri0 proto icmp from 192.168.1.0/24 to 192.168.1.0/24
block in all
pass in quick on lo0 all
pass in quick on eri0 proto icmp from 192.168.1.0/24 to 192.168.1.0/24
pass in quick on eri0 proto tcp from any to eri0/32 port = http keep state
pass in quick on eri0 proto tcp/udp from any to eri0/32 port = domain with keep state

3- Edit rules
under

/etc/ipf/ipf.conf

#vi /etc/ipf/ipf.conf

#
# ipf.conf
#
# IP Filter rules to be loaded during startup
#
# See ipf(4) manpage for more information on
# IP Filter rules syntax.
####
set intercept_loopback true;
block in all
block out all
### inbound traffic ###
pass in quick on lo0 all
pass in quick on eri0 proto icmp from 192.168.1.0/24 to 192.168.1.0/24
pass in quick on eri0 proto tcp from any to eri0/32 port = http keep state
pass in quick on eri0 proto tcp/udp from any to eri0/32 port = domain keep state

pass out quick on lo0 all
pass out quick on eri0 proto tcp/udp from eri0/32 to any port = 53 keep state
pass out quick on eri0 proto tcp from eri0/32 to any port = http keep state
pass out quick on eri0 proto icmp from 192.168.1.0/24 to 192.168.1.0/24
