Solaris Adminsuite 3.0.1 Issues

The known issues with Adminsuite are listed in the following section.

The User Properties List of Rights Is Not Translated

The Rights tab of the User Properties dialog box lists all possible user rights for the domain you are currently managing. This list is in English because the rights shown are obtained from tables that cannot be translated in this version of the product. To learn more about the rights, refer to the context-sensitive help provided when clicking on each Right shown in the Rights tab.

No Multi-Byte Characters Are Accepted in AdminSuite Dialog Boxes

You cannot enter multi-byte characters in any of the AdminSuite dialog boxes, and specifically in the description fields.

Workaround: Click anywhere in the HTML renderer pane in the left side of the dialog box. Then press the Ctrl and Space keys (or whatever control sequence is configured). Note that the pre-edit status window opens; by default, it is at the bottom of the dialog box. Toggle the control sequence until it is in the input mode that you want, and then click on the field in which you want to enter multi-byte characters. If the pre-edit status window disappears, try the workaround again, starting with clicking anywhere in the HTML renderer pane.

Out-of-Memory Error -- Troubleshooting Solution Unsuccessful

If you receive java.lang.OutOfMemory errors, first follow the directions in the Out-of-Memory Error section of AdminSuite's online Troubleshooting guide. That should solve the problem, but if it does not then you might have insufficient "descriptors" (open files). Insufficient descriptors is more likely to be the cause of the out-of-memory errors if you have one server with multiple clients.

To view the number of descriptors, type "limit" in a c shell window:

% limit

cputime			unlimited
filesize			unlimited
datasize			2097148 kbytes
stacksize		8192 kbytes
coredumpsize	unlimited
descriptors		64
memorysuze		unlimited

In this case, the default is set to 64, which may be fewer than you need. Try increasing the number of descriptors to 1024 by issuing the limit descriptors command.

% limit descriptors 1024

AdminSuite Cannot Handle NFS Mounts with /dev= Option [4279439]

Mounts on file systems that contain the /dev= option in the /etc/mnttab file are displayed incorrectly by AdminSuite. When a user selects on a Mounts node or attempts any Mount administration operation, the following error is displayed:

Invalid or unsupported mount option, dev, for mount file_sys mounted at mount point mount_point. This mount cannot be managed by this application.

All such mounts are displayed with a Mount Status of At Boot.

AdminSuite Cannot Manage High Sierra File System [4284522]

AdminSuite cannot manage the High Sierra File System (HSFS). An attempt to view a mount of HSFS CD-ROM will generate an error similar to the following:

Invalid or unsupported mount option maplcase for mount /vol/dev/dsk/c0t6d0/network_client_3_2. This mount cannot be managed by this application.
