It is quite apparent that you are not yet ready to even pretend to be a DBA. You need to spend a LOT of time learning how the pieces parts play together. The fact you have been having this particular problem for a couple of weeks now indicates just that. You can't learn to use a carpenters saw until you first master the tape measure, square and pencil. You are still trying to figure out how the pencil works (Solaris) and still need to get the very basics of the tape measure (XWindows) and the square (Universal Installer). The Saw is Oracle.
We cannot fix this for you as we can not see how you have thrown this thing together. You and your SUN admin are the only ones that can fix this... If it is a Sun box at your house and you ARE the admin, see the above paragraph.
Use google on all of the error messages you are getting, eventually you will find a match to your problem and the learning experience will be well worth the effort.
Hopefully you are not relying on DHCP for any of these systems. DHCP is BAD for servers [caveat, some would disagree with this, but having been doing this for a while now, most of them weren't even in diapers when i started and having fixed way too many issues this way, this is my professional opinion (as well as hard-coding full-duplex for switches auto-negotiate usually doesn't] Hard-code the IP addresses and if necessary add them to your /etc/hosts file on all of your boxes.
Again, you have way too many pieces that appear to be misconfigured. Sometimes you need to start from the beginning and go through every single configuration item to make sure you did it correctly. Received on Sat May 02 2009 - 20:01:37 CDT
