A boot server responds to RARP, TFTP, and bootparams requests from jumpstart clients and provides a boot image using the NFS service. 1. Running the setup_install_server script with the b option to spool a boot image from CD-Rom or DVD 2. Running the add_install_client script with options and argument that shows a list of servers and the identification config, and installation services that they provide. Executing the setup_install_server script # mkdir /export/install # cd /cdrom/cdrom0/s0/Solaris_9/Tools # ./setup_install_server b /export/install Executing the add_install_client script Before you run the script, update the hosts and ethers information for the jumpstart client /etc/inet/hosts 192.10.10.4 client1 /etc/ethers 8:0:20:9c:88:5b

Configuring NIS for Jumpstart Procedures Configuring NIS to support jumpstart procedures involves editing files and running commands on the NIS master server in use. Info supplied in the sysidcfg file overrides any information you make available in NIS. A change to any file that is represented by a map in an NIS domain requires that you complete the following steps on the NIS master server # vi /etc/inet/hosts 192.10.10.4 client1 # vi /etc/ethers 8:0:20:88:5b client1 # vi locale client1 en_US # cd /var/yp # vi Makefile 1. Add the text after the existing *.time entries. Duplicate the timezone entry, and replace timezone with locale Add/Append the word locale to the line beginning with the word all Add the following line after the auto.home: autohometime entry Locale: locale.time Save the file and exit the editor # cd /var/yp # /usr/ccs/bin/make 2. On any slave servers that exist in the NIS domain, run the ypxfr command to transfer the locale.byname map for the first time. # /usr/bin/netsvc/yp/ypxfr locale.byname 3. On the NIS master server, again update the NIS maps by running the make command

If the NIS master is running the rpc.yppasswdd daemon, any client system can update the NIS password map by using the yppasswd or passwd commands. 1. Run the rpc.yppasswdd daemon on the NIS master server # /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/rpc.yppassed /$PWDIR/passwd m passwd Updating the NIS Slave Server Map
# /etc/init.d/volmgt stop (or) start # eject cdrom Will eject the CD-Rom if the vold is running To format a floppy with DOS mode The following steps manually update the NIS timezone map on the master server and propagate all maps to the slave servers 1. Edit the source file on the NIS Master # vi /etc/timezone 2. Remake and push the NIS maps to slave servers # cd /var/yp; /usr/ccs/bin/make 3. If the push fails. Manually pull only the timezone map from the master server by performing the below command in Slave server # /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypxfr timezone.byname # ypinit s nis_master To pull all of the maps at once Sometimes maps fail to propagate, and you must manually use the ypxfr command to retrieve new map information. You can use shell scripts to run cron jobs for automatic update. The Solaris OE provides several template scripts in the /usr/lib/netsvc/yp directory that you can use and modify to meet your local site requirement. ypxfr_lperhour script ypxfr_lperday script To know cluster config Ypxfr_2perday script keys, and mail aliases. To sync NIS Slave Servers passwd map To sync NIS Slave Servers NIS maps for the group, protocols, networks, services, and upservers keys.

CLUSTER=SUNWCXall The NIS configuration script /usr/sbin/ypinit and the make utility generate NIS maps. The ypinit command reads the Makefile for source file locations, and converts ASCII scource files into NIS maps.The /etc/defaultdomain file sets the NIS domain name during system boot. Important files on the NIS Master (Part 1) hosts, passwd & shadow Module 6 Important files on the NIS Master (Part 2) The /var/yp/domainname directory is the repository for the NIS maps created by the ypinit script. The /var/yp/binding/domainname directory contains the ypservers file where the names of NIS Master server and NIS Slave server are stored. Important files on the NIS Master (Part 3) The /usr/netsvc/yp directory contains the ypstop and ypstart commands that stop and start NIS services respectively # /usr/sbin/ypinit m This command prompts for a list of other machies to become NIS slave servers.

Configuring the NIS Master Server Core, End User or Developer software configuration cluster do not have all necessary files in the /usr/lib/netsvc/yp directory to allow a host to function as an NIS server. 1. Copy the /etc/nsswitch.nis file to the /etc/nsswitch.conf file. If necessary, modify the file 2. Enter the domainname command to set the local NIS domain # domainname classroom.central.sun.com 3. Create an /etc/defaultdomain file with the domain name 4. If the files do not already exist, use the touch command to create zero-length files. /etc/ethers, /etc/bootparams, /etc/locale, /etc/timezone, /etc/netgroup and /etc/netmasks. These files are necessary for the creation of the complete set of NIS maps. 5. Install and update Makefile file in the /var/yp directory. 6. Create or populate the /etc/locale file, and make an entry for each domain on your network using the following format domainname locale eg. Classroom.central.sun.com en_us 7. Initialize the master server by using the local /etc files # ypinit m Provide slave server names and Ctrl+D to save the details. Press n for Terminate it on the first fatal error Note: If you have to restart the ypinit program, You are prompted to destroy the /var/yp/domainname directory.

Introducing NIS Security The /var/yp/securenets file to restrict access to a single host or to a subnetwork, and using the passwd.adjunct file to limit access to the password information across the network. The /var/yp/securenets File If exist on an NIS server, the server only answers queries or supplies maps to hosts and networks whose IP Address exist in the file. The server must be part of the subnet to access itself. # cat /var/yp/securenets # Two methods of giving access to a system. Using the netmask followed by the IP Address # or host keyword followed by the IP Address host 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 150.10.1.0 host 13.13.14.1 host 13.13.14.2 If you modify entries in the /var/yp/securenets file. You must kill and restart the ypserv and ypxfrd daemons. # /usr/lib/netsvc/yp/ypstop (or) ypstart The passwd.adjunct File Encrypted password are normally hidden from the user in the /etc/shadow file.

Configuring syslog Messaging The inetd daemon uses the syslog command to record incoming network connection requests made by using TCP. You can modify the behavior of the inetd daemon to log TCP connections by using the syslogd daemon. The daemon facility and the notice message level are supported by inetd. Use the t option as an argument to the inetd daemon to enable tracing of TCP services. When you enable the trace option for the inetd daemon, it uses the daemon.notice to log the clients IP address and TCP port number, and the name of the service. Add the t option to the entry which activated the inetd daemon in the inetsvc script located in the /etc/init.d directory # grep inetd /etc/init.d/inetsvc /usr/sbin/inetd s t You must restart the inetd daemon for the new option to take effect # grep daemon.notice /etc/syslog.conf *.err;kern.debug;daemon.notice;mail.crit /var/adm/messages Monitoring a syslog File in Real Time The tail f command holds the file open so that you can view messages being written to the file by the syslogd daemon. # tail f /var/adm/messages Press Ctrl+c to exit

Configuring System Messaging
The syslog system messaging features track system activities and events. You can manually generate log messages by using the logger command. The syslog function, the syslogd daemon, and input from the /etc/syslog.conf file work together to facilitate system messaging for the solaris 9 OE. The /etc/syslog.conf file
Setuid Permission on Executable Files When the setuid permission is set on an executable file, a user or process that runs this executable file is granted access based on the owner of the file. # ls l /usr/bin/su _ rs r_xr_x 1 root sys . The setuid permission displays as an s in the owners executable field. You should disallow the use of setuid programs or at least restrict their use # chmod 4555 <executable_file> To set setuid permission on a executable. # find / -perm 4000 To search for setuid files
This file consists of two tab-separated fields: selector and action. The selector field has two components, a facility and a level written as facility.level. Facility represent categories of system processes that can generate messages. Levels represent the severity or importance of the message. The action field determines whether to send the message. *.err /var/adm/messages Error messages for all facilities are sent to the /var/adm/messages
Only use tabs as white space in the .etc.syslog.conf file. The Solaris OE accesses the /usr/include/sys/syslog.h file to determine the correct facility.level sequencing order. Selector Fields (facility) Options kern Messages generated by the kernel user Messages generated by user processes and dont have default priority for messages daemon System daemon, such as the in.ftpd and the telnetd daemon auth The authorization system, including the login, su, and ttymon commands syslog Messages generated internally by the syslogd daemon lpr The line printer spooling system, such as the lpr and lpc commands news Files reserved for the USENET network news system uucp The UNIX to UNIX copy (uucp) system does not use the syslog function cron The cron and at facilities, including crontab, at, and cron local0-7 Fields reserved for local use. mark The time when the message was last saved and produced by the syslogd daemon * All facilities, except the mark facility. You can use the asterisk (*) to select all facilities (for eg. *.err); however, you cannot use * to select all levels of a facility (for eg. Kern.*) The levels in descending order of severity Selector Fields (level) Options Level Priority Description emerg 0 Panic conditions that are normally broadcast to all users
Setgid Permission on Executable Files When the process runs, it runs as if it were a member of the same group in which the file is a member. Also access is granted based on the permission assigned to that group # ls l /usr/bin/write _ r _ r_sr_x 1 root . Displays as s in the groups execute field # chmod 2555 <executable_file> # chmod g+s <shared_directory> To set setgid for a directory # find / -perm 2000 To search for setgid files

Performing an Incremental Backup of a UFS Snapshot Use ufsdump with the N option to create an incremental UFS snapshot. Which writes the name of the device being backed up, rather than the name of the snapshot device to the /etc/dumpdates file # ufsdump 1ufN /dev/rmt/0 /dev/rdsk/c1t0d0s0 /dev/rfssnap/0 # ufsrestore tf /dev/rmt/0 To verify # fssnap d /extra(Source FS) # rm /var/tmp/snapshot0 To remove a snapshot You cannot use r option with the g option. If neither the g nor r options are specified, reads are made in a round-robin order from all submirros in the mirror. This process enables load balancing across the submirros. write_options S Performs serial write to mirrors. The default setting for this option is parallel write Pass_num A number (0-9) at the end of an entry defining a mirror that determines the order in which that mirror is resynchronized during a reboot. The default is 1. If 0 used resync is skipped. # metainit d10 m d0 d10 : Mirror is setup # metaroot d10 Deleting a UFS Snapshot # umount /dev/fssnap/0 # fssnap 0d /export/home # rm /backing_store_file # grep md /etc/vfstab /dev/md/dsk/d10 /dev/md/rdsk/d10 / ufs 1 no Updates /etc/system file also /etc/vfstab metainit mirror m submirror [read_options] [write_options] [pass_num] read_options -g Enables the geometric read option, which results in faster performance on sequential reads -r Directs all reads to th first submirror. Use this option, when the devices that comprise the first submirror are substantially faster than those of the second mirror.
Restoring Data from a UFS Snapshot Backup The backup created from a virtual device is a backup of the original FS when the UFS snapshot was taken. You can restore a UFS snapshot from a backup tape in the same manner as you would the backup of an original FS # cd /usr # ufsrestore if /dev/rmt/0 ufsrestore> add demo ufsrestore> extract ufsrestore> quit
The metaroot command also updates the /etc/system file to contain the forceload statement that loads the kernel modules that support the logical volumes. # tail /etc/system forceload : misc/md_hotspares forceload : misc/md_sp forceload : misc/md_stripe forceload : misc/md_mirro forceload : drv/pcipsy . . . rootdev:/pseudo /md@0.10.blk You must reboot the system before attaching the secondary submirror # init 6 # metattach d10 d1 d10: Submirror d1 is attached

Direct Map Lists the mount points as absolute path names. This map explicitly indicates the mount point on the client. Indirect Map Lists the mount points as relative path names. This map uses a relative path to establish the mount point on the client.

If this line is commented out, only the local files are searched unless the /etc/nsswitch.conf file specifies that NIS, NIS+, or LDAP should be searched. The two mount points for special maps are hosts map & -xfn map The hosts map Provide access to all resources shared by NFS servers. The resources being shared by a server are mounted below the /net/hostname directory, or if only the servers IP address is known below the /net/IPaddress directory. The server doesnt have to be listed in the hosts database for this mechanism to work. The xfn map Provides access to resources acailable through the Federated Naming Service (FNS).

Managing Crash Dumps & Core Files
When an OS has a fatal error, it generates a crash dump file (crash dump). When a process has a fatal error, it generates a core file. If the Solaris OE kernel encounters a problem or when an unexpected hardware fault occurs, the panic routine is executed. Where memory contents are copied to a disk partition defined as a dump device.

When an OS crashes, the savecore command is automatically executed during a boot. The savecore command retrieves the crash dump from the dump device and the writes the crash dump to a pair of files in your FS. It places kernel core info in the /var/crash/nodename/vmcore.X file It places name list info & table info in the /var/crash/nodename/unix.X file By default, the dump device is a swap partition. The swap partition contains temp data, therefore permanent data is overwritten by the crash dump.
intr | nointr
Enables or disabled the use of KB interrupts to kill aprocess that hangs on a hard-mounted FS. The default is intr. suid | nosuid Indicates whether to enable setuid execution. Default is setuid execution timeo=n Sets the timeout to n tenth of a second. The default timemout is 11, measures in one-tenth of a second for UDP and 600 tenths of a second for TCP. retry=n Sets the no of times to retry the mount operation. Default is 10,000 times retrans=n Sets the number of NFS retransmission to n. The default is 5 for UDP.
# dumpadm To view the current dump configuration Dump Content : Kernel pages (or) Application Pages (or) All Dump device : /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s1 (swap) Savecore directory : /var/crash/host1 Savecore enabled : yes # cat /etc/dumpadm.conf Content of dumpadm command
Enabling the NFS Server Logging nfslogd daemon responsible for NFS logging The /etc/nfs/nfslog.conf file defines the path, file names, and type of logging that the nfslogd daemon must use. There is a taq corresponding to each definition. Eg. Of nfslog.conf file
Changing the Crash Dump configuration # NFS server log configuration file /usr/sbin/dumpadm [-nuy] [-c content-type] [-d dump-device] [-m mink | minm \ min%] [-r root-dir] [-s savecore-dir] Modifies the dump config so it does not run the savecore command automatically on reboot -u Forcibly updates the kernel dump config based on the contents of /etc/dumpadm.conf -y Modifies the dump config so that the savecore command is run automatically on reboot. This is default -c content-type The content type can be kernel, all, or curproc. The curproc includes the kernel, memoty pages and the memory page of the currently executing process -d dump-device The dump device cab be an absolute path of swap -m mink | minm | min% Creates a minfree file in the current savecore-dir -r root-dir Specifies an alternative root directory relative to which dumpadm command should create files. The default root dir / is used. -s savecore-dir To mention savefiles dir. The default is /var/crash/hostname -n global defaultdir=/var/nfs \ log=nfslog fhtable=fhtable buffer=nfslog_workbuffer defaultdir=dir_path Specifies the default parent directory log=logfile_pat Specifies relative or absolute path and the filename for the ASCII log file fhtable=table_path Specifies path and the filename for the file-handle-to-path DB file buffer=buffer_path Specifies path and the filename for the raw buffer file log format=basic | extended Specifies the format when creating user-redable log files
To easily identify the log files for different shared resources, place them in separate dir. For eg. # cat /etc/nfs/nfslog.conf global defaultdir=/var/nfs \ log=nfslog fhtable=fhtable buffer=nfslog-workbuffer public defaultdir=/var/nfs/public \ log=nfslog fhtable=fhtable buffer=nfslog-workbuffer Create the /var/nfs/public directory before starting NFS server logging Specify a tag by entering the tag to use with the log=taq option in the /etc/dfs/dfstab file. Use the log option without specifying a taq, which mean use the default global tag share F nfs o ro,log /export/sys44_date /etc/default/nfslogd daemon. The config info file controls the logging behavior of the nfslogd
Managing Core File Behavior A core file is a point-in-time copy (snapshot) of the RAM allocated to a process. The copy is written to a more permanent medium, such as a HDD. A core file is useful in analyzing why a particular program crashed. When a core file occurs, the OS generated two possible copies of the core files, one copy known as the global core file and the other copy known as per process core file. All depends on options in effect. Global core file is created in mode 600 and is owned by the superuser. Ordinary per-process core files are created in mode 600 under the credentials of the process. # coreadm Displays the currnet core file config global core file pattern : Identifies the name to use for core files placed in global directory init core file pattern : core Identified the default name that per-process core files must use global core dumps : disabled Indicates global core files are disabled per-process core dumps : enabled global setid core dumps : disabled

See the e option for possible options -u Updates system-wide core file options from the config file /etc/coreadm.conf. -g pattern Sets the global core file name pattern to pattern. The pattern must start with a / -p pattern Sets the per-process core file name pattern to pattern. Pattern options for the coreadm Command %p %u %g %f %n %m %t %% PID EUID EGID Executable file name System node name (uname n) Machine hardware name (uname m) The time in seconds since midnight jan 1 1970 Literal % You can enable or disable two configurable core file paths, per-process and global, separately. If a global core file path is enabled and set to /corefiles/core, for eg. Then each process that terminates abnormally produces two core files: One in the current working directory, and one in the /corefiles/core directory. coreadm [-p pattern] [pid].

# coreadm p core.%f.%p $$ When executed from a users $HOME/.profile (or) .login file sets the core file name pattern for all processes run during the login session. The $$ variable is the PID of the currently running shell. The per-process core file name pattern is inherited by all child processes. # coreadm p $HOME/corefiles/%n.%f.%p $$ This command places all of the users core files into the corefiles subdirectory of users home directory, differentiated by the system node name. # coreadm g /var/core/core.%f.%p e global This sets system-wide parameters that add the executable filename and PID to the name of any core file that is created. # coreadm to verify that this parameter is now part of the core file configuration # coreadm 278 5678 Search for the core dump file. Only the owner of a process or the superuser can query a process by using the coreadm command with a list of PIDs.
Mounting Remote Resources at Boot Time Enter appropriate entries in the clients /etc/vfstab file to mount the remote file resources at boot time. # vi /etc/vfstab sys44:/export/sys44_data /export/remote-data nfs yes soft,bg Mount Command Options rw | ro Read/Write or read-only. The default is read/write bg | fg Retry to mount in background or foreground. The default is to retry in the foreground soft | hard Soft option reports an error on the request, and stop trying when retrans=n reach. Whereas hard option prints a warning message and continue to try. Default is hard mount

Access decision is based on a comparison of the UID of the client and the owner. The Share Command Options ro Informs clients that the server accepts only read requests rw Allows the server to accept read and write requests from the client root=client Informs client that the root user on the specified client system or systems can perform superuser-privileged requests on the share resource. ro=access-list Allows read requests from the specified access list rw=access-list Allows RW requests from the specified access list Access List Options access-list=client:client access-list=@network Allows access based on a colon-separated list of clients Allows access based on a network number (eg @192.168.100 or a network name eg. @mynet.com). The network name must be defined in the /etc/networks file Allows access based on a DNS domain Allows access based on a config net group (NIS) or (NIS+) Sets n to be the effective user ID (EUID) of anonymous users. By default, anonumous users are given the EUID 6001-nobody user. If n is set to 1, access is denied.
