The download file appears to be corrupted.  Please refer
to the Troubleshooting section of the Installation
Instructions on the download page for more information.
Please do not attempt to install this archive file.

hmm... well, Google is always your best friend :-).

You need to set:

[root@w0004 stage]# unset _POSIX2_VERSION=199209

to work around that problem.

Solaris 11 - sshd and iSCSI Initiator

I just installed the latest Solaris Express Release into an VMware Virtual Machine. For the installation I used the "reduced network Cluster".

-bash-3.00$ cat /var/sadm/system/admin/CLUSTER
CLUSTER=SUNWCrnet

To get the SSH Daemon working I used the following commands:

-bash-3.00# mount -F hsfs /dev/dsk/c1t0d0p0 /mnt
-bash-3.00# cd /mnt/Solaris_11/Product/
-bash-3.00# pkgadd -d . SUNWgssc SUNWgss \
SUNWsshcu SUNWsshdr SUNWsshdu SUNWsshr SUNWsshu
-bash-3.00# ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
-bash-3.00# ssh-keygen -t dsa -f/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
-bash-3.00# svcadm enable network/ssh
-bash-3.00# svcs -xv network/ssh
svc:/network/ssh:default (SSH server)
 State: online since Fri Aug 11 12:24:14 2006
   See: man -M /usr/share/man -s 1M sshd
   See: /var/svc/log/network-ssh:default.log
Impact: None.

[Update:] To generate the SSH-Keys for sshd you could also use:

bash# /lib/svc/method/sshd -c

Afterwards I made some experiments with the included iSCSI Initiator. For the tests I used my existing Linux iSCSI Enterprise Target Installation. To configure the Solaris Initiator I used:

bash-3.00# iscsiadm modify discovery -t enable
bash-3.00# iscsiadm add discovery-address 192.168.74.1:3260
bash-3.00# iscsiadm list target

iSCSI unter Linux - das SAN für zuhause

Die Virtualisierung von Festplatten mit iSCSI ermöglicht den Aufbau von einfachen und kostengünstigen Testumgebungen. Der Vortrag stellt iSCSI im Gesamtzusammenhang mit anderen Technologien wie NFS, GNDB und VMware dar. Abgerundet wird der Vortrag mit einer Demonstration, wie sich in kurzer Zeit ein Shared Storage Cluster mit iSCSI und dem GFS (Global File System) zuhause aufbauen lässt.

Oracle Secure Enterprise Search 10g

Oracle is doing a lot of press releases at the moment. First they bought Sleepycat (Berkeley DB) and now they try to attack Google.com? I watched the demo of Oracle Secure Enterprise Search and I must admit the web interface looks very familiar to me :-).

I am wondering if that new product is somewhat related to YAPA the Oracle Text demo from OTN. May be YAPA is the predecessor of SES? A crawler/spider component could also be found as an demo on OTN called Indagine.

On the other hand, it is more likely that SES is the continuation of TripleHop MatchPoint which Oracle bought in June 2005.

Oracle Database 10g Express Edition

wow, the free Oracle starter database version - called Express Edition - has reached production state! In my opinion it has never been easier to get an working Oracle database installed on Linux. The download is just 220 MB large and you won`t belief it - it comes as an RPM package! Hey, and it already includes a nice web interface, which makes it easy to create small database driven web applications:

Oracle Express Edition - Web-Interface

You can find more information on the Oracle Database 10g Express Edition homepage.

Finally there is also a new version (1.3.21) of TOra - Toolkit For Oracle which also works quite well with the Express Edition. You can download TOra from tora.sf.net

[Update 05. Apr 2011: Please see also my new post: Oracle Database 11.2 Express Edition Beta]
