I believe something as simple as 'sort -u ' should work for you #sort -u /tmp/test 172.17.200.1 3.3.3.3 172.17.200.2 3.3.3.4 172.17.200.3 3.3.3.5 172.17.200.4 3.3.3.7 172.17.200.5 3.3.3.8 255.255.255.0 255.255.255.111 Check the 'sort' manpage for more info: -u, --unique with -c, check for strict ordering; without -c, output only the first of an equal ...

Short Answer No Long Answer Quoting from "Chapter 1 Oracle Solaris ZFS File System (Introduction)": All metadata is allocated dynamically, so no need exists to preallocate inodes or otherwise limit the scalability of the file system when it is first created. ...no limit exists on the number of file systems or the number of files that can be ...

Don't do it. Dedupe on ZFS is bad news if you haven't planned well for it... What can happen? Your system can slow down considerably in certain operations. Holding the dedplication table in RAM isn't the best use of resources. Your system can stall for DAYS if you delete data or filesystems the wrong way. If there's any doubt, you shouldn't be using ...

A symbolic link is similar to a shortcut in Windows. It's a entry in the file system that points to another file. The destination file is not touched and no change is made to the original files metadata - it does not know that it has been linked to. You will not be able to tell if a file has symbolic links pointing at it just by looking at information from ...

Solaris 10 did not have an online package repository for the OS packages - you'll need to download the Solaris 10 install images from Oracle and mount the iso or burn it to DVD to get at the package contents. Solaris 11 (including its OpenSolaris and Solaris Express predecessors) is the first Solaris release with an online package repo for the OS packages. ...

IEEE 802.3ad is the standard for link aggregation, not withstanding the move of link aggregation standards to the 802.1 group, as 802.1ax. The real advantage of LACP is the LACPDUs that transit the link from the switch to the host. These ensure that both sides of the link are capable of LACP. A secondary advantage is that with LACP, both the host and the ...

Both the zfs send and the zfs receive are tied to each other when you pipe them together like this. The source system has to crawl the zfs metadata looking for blocks that were written within the incremental interval you are sending. You're then piping that to mbuffer, so that the stream across the ssh session can be somewhat optimized by presenting a ...

I think the easiest solution is to add another system (can be an old, slow one) in Network1. This system detects the breakdown of server1 (either by itself or it gets notified by server2 when it takes over) and takes over the floating IP. It also does NAT for this IP so that all traffic for server1 is forwarded to server2. I have no experience with ...

There's an option to set up a chroot environment for every service and installing those packages under that. It certainly involes some bloat in that you are required to basically replicate many libraries into chroot environment. But it does isolate your services from everyone else's and vice versa and gives you full (root-like) control over the enviroment. ...

The limitation is caused by the fact that the disk label is an EFI Disk Label aka GPT and not SMI aka VTOC. Partitions (or slices) cannot overlap with the primary or backup label, nor with any other partitions. The size of the EFI label is usually 34 sectors, so partitions usually start at sector 34. This feature means that no partition can start at ...

Ah... good ol'Solaris and it's wonderful default policies. When you created the users on a new system install, there was an account expiration time set. This is in the /etc/shadow file, I believe. You will need to unlock the account and then set an expiration time far far into the future. I've tried the "never expires" flag in the past, but it's never ...
