Humor me please, Im new to the world of Apollo (old to the world of
UNIX and SunOS), I have questions for anyone willing to answer them:
*) Where is swap/page space hidden? I notice creating processes makes
available disk space go down
*) Can one catalog Apollo nodes across IP-only routers? Each Apollo
is on a different subnet - telnet/ftp is no sweat, but I havent
figured out how to get them talking to each other in an "Apollo" sense.
*) We are BSD people - will blowing away all the SYS5 stuff cause us
grief?
*) Whats the utility of choice for backing up whole-filesystems?
*) My client is about to buy 5-6 more Apollo DN3500 - the campus is
wired for ethernet. If he buys ethernet cards instead of ring
cards will he loose anything in speed or features?
*) The SR10.1 nodes Im currently playing with seem to hang alot and
sometimes lose track of each other (lcnode -a does not list all
catalog nodes that can actually be cd'd to, for example). Is SR10.1
flakey or is it us?
Thanks for your time - please respond to roode@orion.cf.uci.edu.
