SMC (Solaris Management Console)

On a fresh install of Sparc Solaris 9 - the SMC app works. Upon patching to yesterday's 9_Recommended - it fails - the applets all have red stop signs in the console, and it says someting like - 'There is no server running...' and 'No Solaris Management Console server was available on the specified server.'

This is in the console:

kermit console login: java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/sadm/smc/properties/.s

erver (No such file or directory)

at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method)

at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:103)

MCSSLConfig.java:114)

at com.sun.management.viperimpl.server.ViperWbemServer.main(Vip erWbemSer

ver.java:61)

Starting Solaris Management Console server version 2.1.0.

endpoint created: :898

Solaris Management Console server is ready.

I have tried to stop/start/restart the server with the init.wbem script in /etc/init.d

Thanks for any hints!

Not sure what's wrong but I have noticed that there is Sun Management Center 3. Platform Update 4 in the Solaris 9 pack. Maybe you could install that.

Has there been any resolution to this issue? I'm running into the exact same issue.

I was able to correct this problem on my server

The .server file is the smc java keystore that contains

the private/public key pair for SSL

You can create this file by executing

cd /usr/sadm/lib/smc/bin

certtool -genkey

Once the keys are generated execute

/etc/init.d/init.wbem stop

/etc/init.d/init.wbem start

if your smpatch no longer works

take a look at the following article
