Custom Logrotate in Solaris 10

Here I explain how to configure logadm to rotage any system wide files according to given criteria.
1. Add the corresponding entries in /etc/logadm.conf in below format.
root@server1 # tail -3 /etc/logadm.conf
/var/adm/wtmpx -A 1m -o adm -g adm -m 664 -p 1d -t '$file.old.%Y%m%d_%H%M' -z 1
/var/adm/wtmpx -A 1m -g adm -m 664 -o adm -p 1w -t '$file.old.%Y%m%d_%H%M' -z 5
/var/adm/utmpx -A 1m -g adm -m 664 -o adm -p 1w -t '$file.old.%Y%m%d_%H%M' -z 5
/var/adm/loginlog -A 1m -g sys -m 700 -o root -p 1w -t '$file.old.%Y%m%d_%H%M' -z 5
Explanation for each switch:
-A ->Delete any versions that have not been modified for the amount of time specified by age. Specify age as a number followed by an h (hours), d (days), w(weeks), m (months), or y (years).
-o -> the owner of the newly creating empty file
-g-> the group of newly creating file
-m ->mode of the new empty file (chmod xxx)
-p -> Rotate a log file after the specified time period (period as d, w,  m, y)
-t -> Specify the template to use when renaming log files (Here, wtmpx.old.20101225_0757) (see man logadm for more info)
-z  ->How many copy of rotaged files needs to retain on the system.
-P ->Used by logadm to record the last time the log was rotated in /etc/logadm.conf (no need to set this manually)
2. Once above entries are done, execute logadm -v command to run a logrotation now. Now logadm reads the /etc/logadm.conf file, and for every entry found in that file checks the corresponding log file to see if it should be rotated.
root@server1 # logadm  -v

mkdir -p /var/adm # verify directory exists
mv -f /var/adm/wtmpx /var/adm/wtmpx.old.20101225_1250 # rotate log file
touch /var/adm/wtmpx
chown adm:adm /var/adm/wtmpx
chmod 664 /var/adm/wtmpx
#     recording rotation date Sat Dec 25 12:50:51 2010 for /var/adm/wtmpx
# processing logname: /var/adm/utmpx
mkdir -p /var/adm # verify directory exists
mv -f /var/adm/utmpx /var/adm/utmpx.old.20101225_1250 # rotate log file
touch /var/adm/utmpx
chown adm:adm /var/adm/utmpx
chmod 664 /var/adm/utmpx
#     recording rotation date Sat Dec 25 12:50:51 2010 for /var/adm/utmpx
# processing logname: /var/adm/loginlog
mkdir -p /var/adm # verify directory exists
mv -f /var/adm/loginlog /var/adm/loginlog.old.20101225_1250 # rotate log file
touch /var/adm/loginlog
chown root:sys /var/adm/loginlog
chmod 700 /var/adm/loginlog
#     recording rotation date Sat Dec 25 12:50:51 2010 for /var/adm/loginlog
# writing changes to /etc/logadm.conf
As you can see the last line of above command, once the logadm command successfully run, it do some changes to with -P switch in /etc/logadm.conf file regarding the last update of logrotation.
root@server1 # tail -3 /etc/logadm.conf
/var/adm/wtmpx -A 1m -P 'Sat Dec 25 12:50:51 2010' -g adm -m 664 -o adm -p 1w -t '$file.old.%Y%m%d_%H%M' -z 5

Growing Sun Cluster File System with new Disks.

Setup Details:
Number of Nodes: 2
Node Name: Node1 and Node2
Cluster: Sun Cluster 3.2
OS: Solaris 9/10



I want to add 300G (100x3) SAN LUNs with one of the cluster mount point (/apps/data).

root@Node2 # df -h|grep d300
/dev/md/apps-ms/dsk/d300   295G   258G    35G    89%    /apps/data

1. Add disks to both systems (shared) in SAN

2. Configure all the fiber channels on both nodes with below steps.

root@Node1 #  cfgadm -al|grep fc
c4                             fc-fabric    connected    configured   unknown
c5                             fc           connected    unconfigured unknown
c6                             fc-fabric    connected    configured   unknown
c7                             fc           connected    unconfigured unknown
root@Node1 # cfgadm -c configure c4 c5 c6 c7


3. Run devfsadmin to configure new devices

root@Node1 #devfsadm –C

(Repeat steps 2 and 3 in all cluster nodes)
4. Run format command to list all the disks, the newly configred disk can be seen at top of format as below (if the disk not labeled already)

root@Node1 # format
Searching for disks...done
c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000103d0: configured with capacity of 99.98GB
c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000104d0: configured with capacity of 99.98GB
c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000120d0: configured with capacity of 99.98GB

5. Format each disk to create a partition as below.

s7 ->100mb (this 100 mb is reseverd for metadb creation. Not mandatory)
s0 -> remaining space.

6. Create corresponding cluster devices (global device path) using scgdevs command.
root@Node2 # scgdevs
Configuring DID devices
did instance 95 created.
did subpath Node2:/dev/rdsk/c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000120d0 created for instance 95.
did instance 96 created.
did subpath Node2:/dev/rdsk/c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000104d0 created for instance 96.
did instance 97 created.
did subpath Node2:/dev/rdsk/c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000103d0 created for instance 97.
Configuring the /dev/global directory (global devices)
obtaining access to all attached disks

(above command resulted in createing d95, d96, d97 devices)
7. Confirm this devices are available on both nodes. There must be same devices with each hostname as given below.
root@Node2 # scdidadm -L|egrep 'd95|d96|d97'
95       Node2:/dev/rdsk/c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000120d0 /dev/did/rdsk/d95
95       Node1:/dev/rdsk/c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000120d0 /dev/did/rdsk/d95
96       Node2:/dev/rdsk/c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000104d0 /dev/did/rdsk/d96
96       Node1:/dev/rdsk/c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000104d0 /dev/did/rdsk/d96
97       Node2:/dev/rdsk/c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000103d0 /dev/did/rdsk/d97
97       Node1:/dev/rdsk/c8t6005076305FFC08C0000000000000103d0 /dev/did/rdsk/d97


Following steps must be done on the system which has the ownership of this metaset (metaset -s apps-ms and confirm who is the owner)

8. Adding all the three devices with curresponding metaset (apps-ms)

root@Node2 # metaset -s apps-ms -a /dev/did/rdsk/d95 /dev/did/rdsk/d96 /dev/did/rdsk/d97
9. Attach this devices with specific meta devices (here it’s d300) using metattach command.

root@Node2 # metattach -s apps-ms d300 /dev/did/rdsk/d95s0 /dev/did/rdsk/d96s0 /dev/did/rdsk/d97s0
apps-ms/d300: components are attached

10. Confirm the devices are attached properly using below command.

root@Node2 # metastat -s apps-ms -p d300 apps-ms/d300 2 3 d6s0 d7s0 d8s0 -i 32b \
         3 d95s0 d96s0 d97s0 -i 32b
11. Once the above result is confirmed, file system can be grown using below command.
root@Node2 # growfs -M /apps/data /dev/md/apps-ms/rdsk/d300
/dev/md/apps-ms/rdsk/d300:    1257996288 sectors in 76782 cylinders of 64 tracks, 256 sectors
        614256.0MB in 12797 cyl groups (6 c/g, 48.00MB/g, 5824 i/g)
super-block backups (for fsck -F ufs -o b=#) at:
 32, 98592, 197152, 295712, 394272, 492832, 591392, 689952, 788512, 887072,
Initializing cylinder groups:
...............................................................................
...............................................................................
...............................................................................
..................
super-block backups for last 10 cylinder groups at:
 1257026336, 1257124896, 1257223456, 1257322016, 1257420576, 1257519136,
 1257617696, 1257716256, 1257814816, 1257913376
,
12. After successfull execution of above command, the file system has been grow. Now its around 600G.

 root@Node2 # df -h|grep d300
/dev/md/apps-ms/dsk/d300   591G   258G   330G    44%    /apps/data

13. Below is the corresponding logs generated in /var/adm/messages during above activity.
