Oracle Solaris License Updated for Java SE Components The Oracle Solaris license has been updated to include the following section: Included Java SE Components The Programs may include or be distributed with certain separately licensed components that are part of Java Platform, Standard Edition ("Java SE").
2 C H A P T E R 2 Installation Issues This chapter provides information and describes issues related to the installation of the Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 release. Note – To see previously documented bugs and issues that are fixed and no longer apply to the Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 release, refer to Appendix A, “Previously Documented Bugs That Were Fixed in the Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 Release.
General Information Oracle Configuration Manager Starting with the Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 release, the Auto Registration feature uses Oracle Configuration Manager (OCM) to collect configuration information of the system and upload it to the Oracle repository. For information on using the OCM, see Chapter 17, “Working With Oracle Configuration Manager,” in Oracle Solaris Administration: Basic Administration.
Before You Begin SPARC: You can upgrade to Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 on SPARC based systems from the following major releases: ■ ■ ■ Solaris 8 OS Solaris 9 OS Oracle Solaris 10 OS x86: You can upgrade to Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 on x86 based systems from the following major releases: ■ ■ Solaris 9 OS Oracle Solaris 10 OS Support for Products Not Part of the Oracle Solaris OS The Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 release has been tested for compatibility with previous releases in line with the Oracle Solaris compatibil
Before You Begin ■ ■ Oracle Solaris 8/11 and above Kernel patch 144500–19 and above For more information, see InfoDoc 1358671.1 on My Oracle Support. Live Upgrade and Oracle Solaris Zones Starting with the Solaris 10 8/07 release, the use of Live Upgrade with Oracle Solaris Zones is supported. For more information, see InfoDoc 1004881.1 at My Oracle Support. Live Upgrade Restrictions For Live Upgrade to operate correctly, a limited set of patch revisions must be installed for a given OS version.
Before You Begin These patches provide the new p7zip functionality. Live Upgrade requires p7zip functionality in order to support an upgrade to Oracle Solaris 10 1/13. Note – The minimum required patch information for the live boot environment prior to using Live Upgrade is provided in Infodoc 1004881.1 at My Oracle Support.
Before You Begin ■ ZFS zones– Oracle Solaris systems with ZFS zones cannot currently be upgraded. For Trusted Extensions systems with ZFS zones, the alternative is to recreate the zones. Perform these steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. Back up all the data by using the tar -T command. Delete the zones. Upgrade the system and reconfigure all the zones. Restore all the data. ■ NFSv4 domain – After upgrading your system, when you bring up each labeled zone, you will be prompted for the NFSv4 domain.
Before You Begin Note – If the system is booted without performing these steps, you will need to manually start the appropriate name service-related Service Management Facility (SMF) client services. Patching Miniroot on SPARC and x86 Compatible Machines The procedures for using patchadd with the -C destination specifier to patch a miniroot on SPARC and x86 machines have changed. You must now unpack the miniroot, apply patches, then repack the miniroot.
Before You Begin x86: Systems With an elx or pcelx NIC Fail Network Configuration Systems with an elx or a pcelx network interface card (NIC) fail to install. During the configuration of the NIC, the following error message might be displayed: WARNING: elx: transmit or jabber underrun: d0 See the elxl(7D) or pcelx(7D) man page for more information. Workaround: Install and run the network configuration on systems that do not have elx or pcelx NICs.
Before You Begin 2. From Select Type of Install, select Custom Install. Several screens are displayed that enable you to customize the software localizations, products, and disk layout that you want to install. 3. From Lay Out File Systems, select Auto Layout. The disk layout screen is displayed. 4. Type /var in the File System column for a specific slice. The installation program suggests a default size for the /var file system. 5. Press F4_Customize to customize the size of the /var file system. 6.
Before You Begin SPARC: Older Firmware Might Need Boot Flash PROM Upgrade On SPARC based systems, the Oracle Solaris 10 OS runs in 64-bit mode only. Some Sun4U systems might need to be upgraded to a higher level of OpenBoot firmware in the flash PROM to run the OS in 64-bit mode.
Before You Begin uninstall the Solaris Management Console software before you upgrade. The Solaris Management Console software might exist on your system if you previously installed the SEAS 2.0 overbox, the SEAS 3.0 overbox, or the Solaris 8 Admin Pack. Choose one of the following workarounds: ■ Workaround 1: Before you upgrade, use the /usr/bin/prodreg command to perform a full uninstall of the Solaris Management Console software.
Before You Begin The Solaris Management Console 2.1 software should now function properly. For future maintenance, or if the Solaris Management Console 2.1 software does not function properly, remove the Solaris Management Console 2.1 software. Reinstall the software by completing the following steps: 1. Use the pkgrm command to remove all Oracle Solaris Management Console 2.1 packages and dependent packages in the order provided below.
Before You Begin ■ In the global zone if any non-global zones are installed on the system If you create an Oracle Solaris flash archive in either instance, the resulting archive might not install properly when the archive is deployed. Workaround: You might be able to create an Oracle Solaris flash archive of a system that has installed zones if they are all halted.
Before You Begin Note – The screen might display more than one attachment type, for example, if your system has multiple optical drives. In such cases, you might need to open the system case to determine the DVD drive's point of attachment. Make sure that you select the correct attachment type that applies to the DVD drive. 3. After selecting the correct CD-ROM attachment type, press Enter. The next screen appears with Type:[Auto] automatically selected. 4.
Installation Bugs Installation Bugs The following bugs might occur during or after the installation of the Oracle Solaris 10 OS. ZFS Warning Is Displayed During Installation (15783233) When you perform a network based installation of Oracle Solaris 10 1/13, the following warning message is displayed: WARNING: /usr/sbin/zfs mount -a failed: one or more file systems failed to mount Ignore this warning message.
Upgrade Issues and Bugs ■ On systems that run on the Oracle Solaris 9/10 release, the flash archive installation will fail if the master system on which the flash archive is created has descendant datasets under the root dataset. For example, if the master system has a separate /var dataset, the ZFS flash archive created from the master system fails to install to an alternate boot environment on a system where the current boot environment is Oracle Solaris 10 9/10.
Upgrade Issues and Bugs Pre-Allocated ZFS volumes Cannot be Resized (15789119) After installing or upgrading the Oracle Solaris OS, you cannot resize the existing swap and dump volumes. If you try to resize the volumes, an error message similar to the following will appear: /response of "zfs set" command (on terminal): e.g. "cannot set property for ’rpool/swap’: volume is busy"/ /in /var/adm/messages and dmesg: e.g. "rpool/swap is a swap or a dump device.
3 C H A P T E R 3 Oracle Solaris Runtime Issues This chapter describes Oracle Solaris runtime issues that are known problems. Note – To see previously documented bugs and issues that are fixed and no longer apply to the Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 release, refer to Appendix A, “Previously Documented Bugs That Were Fixed in the Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 Release.” General Information This section provides general information and recommendations while running the Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 OS.

Import the problem pool in read-only mode. # zpool import -o readonly=on poolname For information, see InfoDoc 1497293.1 on My Oracle Support. ZFS and UNIX/POSIX Compliance Issues ZFS is designed to be a POSIX compliant file system and, in most situations, ZFS is POSIX compliant.
File System Issues and Bugs ZFS GUI Should Check for /usr/lib/embedded_su Patch at the Beginning of Each Wizard (15287937) If you add the SUNWzfsg package from a Solaris 10 10/09 release to a system that runs a release prior to the Solaris 10 6/06 release that does not have the embedded_su patch, the ZFS Administration application wizards are not fully functional.
Hardware-Related Issues and Bugs ■ A server that is running Oracle Solaris 10 software The following table illustrates the results of the ACL functions in client-server configurations with different Oracle Solaris 10 releases.
Hardware-Related Issues and Bugs x64: PCI Subsystem ID Changes in ConnectX Firmware 2.6.0 From Mellanox (15544691) Upgrading the ConnectX firmware to version 2.6.0 or higher on a running system might cause problems in some HCAs and x64 platforms. This issue affects only Mellanox-branded HCAs. Sun-branded PCIe HCAs, EMs, and NEMs, and SPARC platforms are not affected. You might be unable to boot the system or the system might hang during boot.
Hardware-Related Issues and Bugs /devices/pci@0,0/pci10de,5d@e/pci15b3,5@0/ibport@2,ffff,ipib:ibd1 /devices/pci@0,0/pci10de,5d@e/pci15b3,5@0:devctl Workaround 2: If you reboot the system before updating the path_to_inst file and the /dev directory, the system might hang. In such a case, perform the following steps: 1. Power off the system and remove the HCA from the bus. 2. Reboot the system without the HCA installed. 3. Once the system is back on, follow steps 2 and 3 in Workaround 1. 4.

Supported USB Devices and Corresponding Hub Configurations This Oracle Solaris 10 release supports both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices.
Hardware-Related Issues and Bugs DVD-ROM/CD-ROM Drives on Headless Systems Power management of interactive devices such as removable media is linked with power management of your monitor and the graphics card that drives your monitor. If your screen is active, devices such as the CD-ROM drive and diskette drive remain in full-power mode. These devices might switch to low-power mode on a system without a monitor.
Compiler Related Issues 3. Save the configuration. ■ If your system is running the default Xorg server, follow these steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Run kdmconfig. Select the Xsun server. Use the Change Keyboard option to change the keyboard type. Save the configuration. Run kdmconfig again to switch to the Xorg server. Compiler Related Issues This section describes compiler related issues that apply to Oracle Solaris 10 OS.
Localization Issues Localization Issues This section describes localization issues that apply to Oracle Solaris 10 OS. Firefox and Thunderbird Hang in the Hangul Input Method (16043053) Firefox 10.0.7 and Thunderbird 10.0.7 hang when you use the Hangul input method in the ko_KR.EUC locale. This error occurs because the Internet Intranet Input Method (IIIM) gtk-im-module module is not configured properly in the private libraries of GNOME and GTK that are bundled with Firefox and Thunderbird.
Localization Issues Workaround: Stop using the iiim-panel. Perform the following steps: 1. Right-click the iiim-panel and select Preference. The Input Method Preference Editor, iiim-properties, is displayed. 2. Select None or Attach to Each Application from the Input Method Status and Switcher Placement list in the General tab. 3. Click the Apply or OK button. To switch the input language, you can also use Hotkey. To enable Hotkey, perform the following steps: 1.
Localization Issues 2. Reboot the system. Alternatively, you can log in to ar_EG.UTF-8 or other UTF-8 locales. Migration Note for UTF-8 Locales When migrating to UTF-8 locales, the files affect the method that you use to import or export data. Emails Saved as Portable Format Modern email messages are tagged with the MIME charset tag. The Email and Calendar application accepts MIME charset tags. You do not need to perform any encoding conversion.
Localization Issues Launching Legacy Locale Applications For applications that are not ready to migrate to Unicode UTF-8, you can create a launcher on the front panel to start the application in legacy locales. You can also launch the applications directly from the command line. Perform the following steps to create a launcher for an application. 1. Right-click the panel where you want to place the launcher. 2. Choose Add to Panel → Launcher. 3.
Networking Issues Brazil Portugese Malta UK Croatia Malta US Czech Poland Denmark Romania Estonia Serbia and Montenegro French Canadian Slovakia Hungary Slovenia Iceland Choose one of the following workarounds. ■ Workaround 1: To take advantage of this keyboard support, set up keyboard input using the kbd -s command. For desktop sessions with the UTF-8 locale environment, use the Input Method Preference Editor. If the required keyboard layout is not listed, use Workaround 2.
Oracle Solaris Commands and Standards IP Forwarding Is Disabled by Default in the Oracle Solaris 10 OS In this release, IP forwarding is disabled by default. This setting applies to both IPv4 and IPv6 regardless of other system configurations. Systems with multiple IP interfaces that formerly forwarded IP packets by default no longer have this automatic feature. To enable IP forwarding in multihomed systems, you must manually perform additional configuration steps.
Oracle Solaris Commands and Standards New ln Utility Requires -f Option The behavior of /usr/bin/ln has changed to adhere to all of the standards from SVID3 through XCU6. If you use the ln command without the -f option to link to an existing target file, the link is not established. Instead, a diagnostic message is written to standard error, and the command proceeds to link any remaining source files. Finally, the ln command exits with an error value.
Solaris Volume Manager Bugs ■ ■ ■ ■ gets() getwc() getwchar() getws() A formal interpretation of the 1990 C Standard requires that after an end-of-file condition is set, no more data is returned from the file on subsequent input operations unless the file pointer is repositioned or the error and end-of-file flags are explicitly cleared by the application. The behavior for all other compilation modes remains unchanged.
Solaris Volume Manager Bugs 2. Run the following commands as needed: ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ fdisk rmformat format newfs mount 3. Restart the volume manager. # /etc/init.d/volmgt start Solaris Volume Manager metattach Command Might Fail If you have a Solaris Volume Manager mirrored root (/) file system in which the file system does not start on cylinder 0, all submirrors that you attach must also not start on cylinder 0.
Java Desktop System Issues Java Desktop System Issues This section describes issues that apply to the Java Desktop System (Java DS) in the Oracle Solaris 10 OS. Email and Calendar Application This section describes issues related to the Email and Calendar application. Problem With Changing Authentication Type (15256650) After you change the authentication type for the incoming mail server, the Email and Calendar application might not work correctly. Workaround: Restart the Email and Calendar application.
Java Desktop System Issues User Preferences Not Fully Compatible User preferences in your home account for an earlier version of the GNOME desktop might be partly incompatible with the version in Java Desktop System Release 3. Workaround: Reset your preferences. Perform the following steps: 1. Log out of the Java Desktop System. 2. Click Session and choose Failsafe terminal. 3. Log in. 4. In the Failsafe terminal window, type the following command: % gnome-cleanup exit 5. Log in again.
Java Desktop System Issues This command creates the xorg.conf.new file in the root (/) directory. 3. Copy the new configuration file to the /etc/x11 directory and rename the file xorg.conf. # cp /xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf 4. Modify the file by adding the following sample configurations: ■ Add a new monitor section. Section "Monitor" Identifier "monitor_dummy" ModelName "dummy" HorizSync 10-200 VertRefresh 20-90 EndSection ■ Add a new device section.
System Administration Issues and Bugs This new line defines Screen1, a second dummy screen that is notionally to the right of Screen0, the physical and primary screen. 7. Save the changes. 8. Reboot the system from the appropriate command-line session: ■ If you are using Gnome Display Manager: a. Type svcadm enable application/gdm2-login. b. Reboot the system. ■ If you are using dtlogin, reboot the system and log in. 9. Start the Gnopernicus screen reader. 10. Change the Startup Mode to Magnifier. 11.
System Administration Issues and Bugs Oracle VTS testprobe_ramtest Fails on Fujitsu M10 Systems (15955560) testprobe_ramtest in Oracle VTS fails on Fujitsu M10 systems. An error message similar to the following is displayed: ERROR: Test probe testprobe_ramtest() Failed with segmentation violation (signal: 11) Workaround: The fix for this issue might be available on MOS in a later revision of the Oracle VTS 7.0 Patch Set 15.
System Administration Issues and Bugs For SPARC: Prevent the ISM and DISM from using a page size larger than 4 MB. Perform the following steps: 1. Add the following line in the /etc/system file. set disable_ism_large_pages=0x74 2. Reboot the system. For x86: Disable the support for a 1 GB page by setting the enable_1gpg variable to zero in kmdb. Perform the following steps: 1. Boot the system in kmdb mode. 2. Set the enable_1gpg variable to zero.
