Oracle Solaris 11.4 release introduced a new feature i.e, Solaris Analytics that helps in analyzing Oracle Solaris systems issues and monitoring various resources on the system. The two components of the Analytics feature are StatsStore and Analytics WebUI. You can read more about these components in the following blogs: Solaris Analytics - An Overview what-is-this-bui-thing-anyway With the release of Oracle Solaris 11.4 SRU 19, you can configure StatsStore to generate a...

In my previous post on RAID-5, I talked about how we can recover the data using simple additions and subtractions. We will discuss RAID-6 in this post. Unfortunately, you need a bit more than additions and subtractions to understand how we recover data in RAID-6. Toward the end of this post, I will touch briefly upon the "finite field," but I will refrain from being too mathematical. Index: Recap Why Do We Need RAID-6 Is Single Parity Useless? Assign Numbers For Each Drive...

Things break. So are the hard drives and SSDs. We are storing our important data on devices that we know they eventually break, so we need some protection. We use RAID technology for granted without knowing much about its internals. This post is an attempt to explain how RAID-5 recovers data by using elementary school math. Understanding the internal will help you understand why the RAID layout with a lot of drives would take longer to recover data. In this post, I...

Following on to last week's release of Oracle Solaris 11.4 SRU 14, we've updated the Solaris listing in the Orace Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Marketplace to make pre-built 11.4 SRU 14 images available, in addition to the Solaris 11.4 GA images previously available. This will make it easier than ever to use the latest Solaris version in OCI! With this update we've also taken the opportunity to re-organize our listing a bit. Rather than the separate virtual machine and bare...

Since our last update on Oracle Solaris and Oracle Java we've been getting more questions, so we wanted to write a quick blog to share the latest on this topic. There are a lot of applications out there running on Oracle Java SE 8 and Oracle Java SE 11, these are mature and widely adopted platforms. As you can see on the Oracle Java SE Support Roadmap, Oracle is committed to supporting these releases until at least 2025 and 2026 respectively. In addition, this page notes:...

Ever since the initial delivery of the Image Packaging System (IPS) during the development of Oracle Solaris 11 it has been tightly integrated with Boot Environments; this provides a safe, reliable upgrade/rollback facility. Naming of the boot environments was left to the administrator. How do you choose a "good" name for your BE ? If you are following the Oracle Solaris 11 SRU train then using the release and SRU number as part of the BE is a good start. The name of a BE...
