  • 1. How to flush the arp cache of an StoreEdge 3510 without rebooting
    We have a little problem with one of our StorEdge3510: We moved the IP address of one of the server used for maintaing the StoreEdge3510 from qfe0 to ce0. Now we can't access the StorEdge3510 via IP from this server anymore. Both, the server and the StorEdge3510, are in the same subnet. Doing a snoop while executing ping <ip_addres_of_the_storeedge3510> I can see, that the StorEdge still sends the ping reply to the MAC address of the qfe card and not to the mac address of the ce card. The machine is configured with local-mac-address=true. The IP configuration of the server and the IP configuration of the StorEdge3510 is okay (we can access the StorEdge from other machines vithout problems). As I said, not a big problem but I would like to know, how I can remove this invalid entry from the arp cache of the StorEdge3510 without rebooting it. TIA Bernd

  • 4. How to find initialized value from object file?
    Hi All, Say I C file with simple line like: int y=1; When I compile the file and run nm I see an entry as: [5] | 0| 4|OBJT |GLOB |0 |3 |y dump -t yields: [5] 0x0 4 OBJT GLOB 0 3 y None of these tell me to what value y was initialized. Is there a way to find this out by looking at object file? What if I have a complex data structure, etc and want to look at the contents of the entire memory in compiled code (size of structure contents as byte values). Thanks in advance, SUnil.

Hi,

You need  the Console ttymon  to generate a login on the console
port.
( note that the consol port is not a fixed physical port.  it is
reassignable to diffrent
devices  using the OBP.  It can be a graphics card. it can be the
RSC )

This is what the serial port setup is supposed to look like  if you
are  going to get a prompt on any of the two
standard serial ports.

# sacadm -l
PMTAG          PMTYPE         FLGS RCNT STATUS     COMMAND
zsmon          ttymon         -    0    ENABLED    /usr/lib/saf/ttymon
#
# pmadm -l -p zsmon
PMTAG          PMTYPE         SVCTAG         FLGS ID
<PMSPECIFIC>
zsmon          ttymon         ttya           u    root     /dev/term/a
I - /usr/bin/login - 9600 ldterm,ttcompat ttya login:  - tvi925 y  #
zsmon          ttymon         ttyb           u    root     /dev/term/b
I - /usr/bin/login - 9600 ldterm,ttcompat ttyb login:  - tvi925

If on the other hand you are talking about a  port  on a Remote
Service processor card.  ( RSC ) you will need
to install the software and configure the RSC .

you can read up on the RSC and download the software for it from here:

I assume you mean if neither of them are hosting the console at the
time.  If the default of 'console' being on serial port A is in place,
then the other port monitors do not need to be running.  That's the most
common case.


In fact here the capital 'I' shows that these ports were only
'initialized'.  They are not running a monitor.  The effect is for other
tools that use the ports to get some nice default settings.  These
monitors do not (currently) control any logins.

Hi All,

Just wanted to update you all about the status of this problem.

Alhumdolillaah, i able to connect to the SunFire V890 Console using
DB-25 Serial port.

The problem was in the console cable, i was using cross-over cable by
mistake and assuming its straight cable.

So the conclusion is that to connect to DB-25 Serial of SunFire V890
you must use straigth cable.

[ as i mentioned in my original post. ]

Thanks for all who tried to help me out. i really appreciate them and
keep it up the good work.

BismillahirRehmanirRahim

Hi Admins,

I am unable to connect to Serial Console using DB-25 connector at Sun
Fire V890 Servers.

i tried both cross-over and straigth cables not its not giving me any
prompt.

in past we had same problem and at that time the straigth cable
worked.

I believe the console port is being in used by some other process
thats why i am unable to get it.

from the telnet session i got following deamon. :

# ps -ef |grep onsol
    root  8432     1  0 06:40:58 console  0:00 /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -
h -p core1 console login:  -T sun -d /dev/console -l

appreciate your prompt reply.

2.Problem getting console on v890 RSC

I'm having a problem accessing the console on a v890 RSC.

When I enter the "console" command at the "rsc>" prompt I get...

"Console session already in use."

(The v890 RSC does not support the "console -f" option)

As far as I can tell there are no other users connected to the RSC.

The OpenBoot environment has the following settings...

output-device=rsc-console
input-device=rsc-console

"ps" shows that the following "console" process is running...

"root   342     7   0 23:34:57 console     0:00 /usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g
-d /dev/console -l console -T sun -m ldterm,ttcompat -h"

Can anybody help?

Many Thanks,
   =Adrian=
