Changes Include Capability to Specify Slot Locations

JET 4.9.4, the latest version contains a number of updates, the most significant of which is the ability to specify slot locations instead of the traditional cXtYdZsN nomenclature, Ramchand notes, adding that this is a useful improvement, especially for users trying to Jumpstart multiple servers with SAS2.0-based HBAs. With the WWN embedded in the cXtYdZsN name, the post explains, it is difficult to guess what that will be until you've booted the server.

Uses Apache Tomcat Server Instance as Example
Integrated Load Balancer (ILB) can e combined with Oracle Solaris Zones and the new network virtualization capabilities of Oracle Solaris 11 to set up a virtual server on a single system."] The Oracle Tech Network post includes an introductory overview of ILB and follows with an 11-step procedure for setting up a virtual half-NAT mode Apache Tomcat server instance, which means that as traffic hits the ILB, the ILB re-writes the destination IP address of the real server; the source IP address is preserved. Readers will need a basic knowledge of Oracle Solaris Zones and networking administration.
