SVR4 versus IPS

• SVR4

– Separate Package and Patch databases

– Ad hoc patching on the system at admin discretion

– Patching is a serial process, especially with Zones

• IPS

– Single database (repository) with different versions

• Also a single repository holds both SPARC and x86 binaries

– “Patching” is going to a new package version

– The system patch level is now deterministic

• An update to a certain version always delivers the same result

– Only pull over files that need updating

Packages and Patches


reserved.

SVR4 versus IPS

• SVR4

– Minimization is manual and error prone

• IPS

– IPS installs a minimal OS image

– Install only the necessary packages

– Build more efficient images

• Zones and IPS – Independent installs

– Minimized Global Zone

– Zones have independent packages sets

One Installation Engine; Three Installers

• Each with its own features and capabilities

• Each delivering its own benefits for specific needs

• Interactive

• Live Media – Desktop, GUI tools • solaris-desktop group package, automatic network configuration

• Text Installer – “Headless” servers • solaris-large-server group package, choice of automatic or manual network & name service configuration

• Automated Installer – Large-scale deployments

• Distribution Constructor lets you build your own installation

media, behaving like any of these categories

Steps to Convert from Solaris 10 JumpStart

• Deploy Solaris 11 server instance to host AI service

– Use as JumpStart server as well

• Translate rules to criteria

• Translate profiles to manifests

• Translate sysidcfg to SMF profile

• Publish manifests and profiles to AI service

• Convert finish scripts to SMF service(s)

• Publish SMF service package to IPS repository

• Documentation “Transitioning From Oracle Solaris 10 JumpStart

to Oracle Solaris 11 Automated Installer”


reserved.

js2ai JumpStart to AI translation tool

• Automatically converts existing JumpStart rules, profiles,

sysidcfg files to AI equivalents

• Conversion is best-effort, with instructions on issues that need

manual resolution

• Result is a directory hierarchy with AI profiles, system config

manifests, log of the tool's actions

• See js2ai(1m)

• pkg:install/js2ai must be installed

Solaris 11 Provisioning Summary Reduced Downtime, Reduced Risk

• Automated Installer and Image Packaging System make maintenance

fool-proof and safe

– Built-in dependency tracking prevents system modification if changes are incorrect

– Upgrading in sand-boxed boot environments provides easy roll-back option

– Ease of use through automatic dependency tracking

• Drastic Improvement of Reboot Performance

– Streamlined shutdown

– “Fast Reboot” reduces time by not testing hardware we already know to be good

• 6x faster Zone provisioning vs hypervisors

– 4x faster upgrades vs Red Hat

– 2.5x faster reboots vs Red Hat


reserved.

Oracle Solaris 11 Maintenance Overview

• Solaris 11 Updates forecast to be released once or maybe twice a year

• Intensely tested

• Some significant enhancements may be delivered

• Hardware support

• Software enhancements

• Existing packages updated

• May introduce new packages

• Solaris Updates include a large number of non-customerescalated bug

fixes

• Provide high quality stepping stones to new and improved functionality


reserved.

Oracle Solaris 11 Maintenance Overview

• Plan to release Support Repository Update (SRU) containing bug fixes

monthly

• Equivalent to Solaris 10 OS Recommended Patchset

• Want to avoid replacing “dim sum” patching with “dim sum” packaging

– Customers should update Solaris as a Baseline unit in

Proactive Maintenance windows

– Provide limited number of Solaris Baselines

– Issues less likely to be unique

– Better customer experience - “safety in numbers” effect

– Customers may still minimize systems


reserved.

Changes in Administration

• root as a role

– sudo(1)

– Invocation of profile shell sets new process flag enabling RBAC

• No need to modify shell scripts for use in profile shells

• System configuration in SMF repository

– Contents from some config files moved to SMF properties • svccfg –s <svc:...> setprop <...=...>; svcadm refresh <svc:...>

• Upgrades become more reliable

• Name service configuration nscfg(1)

– sysconfig(1M) replaces sysidtool/sys-unconfig utilities

Highlights

for more .... see Oracle Solaris 11 What„s New


reserved.

Changes in Administration

• $PATH user familiarity

– GNU binaries, binaries with common options in /usr/bin

– In case of conflicts /usr/gnu/bin

• Logical structuring of enhanced commands

– From ifconfig(1M), wificonfig(1M), ... to dladm(1M) and ipadm(1M)

– Network profiles netcfg(1M), netadm(1M)

• Improved observability

– dlstat(1M), zonestat(1), latencytop(1M) ...

– Additional DTrace providers

Oracle Solaris 11 Zones


reserved.

Oracle Solaris Zones and IPS & AI

• Automated installer understands Zones

– AI can install Zones directly at system install or ad-hoc later

• Every Zone can have independent package sets

– From each other and the Global Zone

– They are only linked version-wise to the Global Zone

– Updating the Global Zone will automatically update the Zones too

• Every Zone has it‟s own ZFS dataset and BEs

– Zone updates now are always while the system is live to the BE

Fully integrated install and packing


reserved.

Oracle Solaris Zones and Security

• Immutable Zones

– The Zone file system can be locked down

into complete or partial read only mode

– The Global Zone can control the IP address and netmask

• Delegated Administration

– Privilege to manage and access the Zones in the Global Zone

can now controlled on a per user and per zone basis

• Network traffic can be forced through a firewall

before it enters the Zone

Making Zones even more secure


reserved.

Networking Designed for the Cloud

• Virtualize, consolidate network infrastructure

- Reduce networking infrastructure costs

• Integrated functionality

Firewall, Routing, Load Balancing, Bridging

• 4x lower latency vs KVM

• New network resource controls

– Bandwidth control, Flow control

• Split up large network pipes

• Guarantee network bandwidth for SLAs

• Industry standard interfaces


reserved.
