count files open on a solaris machine without lsof

If there is no lsof installed and you want to know how many files are currently open you could use this script:

#!/bin/bash

count=0

for i in `ls /proc`; do
if [ -d /proc/$i/fd ]; then
add=$( ls /proc/$i/fd | wc -w )
else
add=0
fi
let "count=count+add"
done
echo $count

Nanoseconds

Sun's version of date does not allow the display of nanoseconds.
But if one needs to do so one can use this handy perl one-liner:



perl -e 'use Time::HiRes qw(gettimeofday); print gettimeofday(),"\n";'

Getting console access via SC using expect

To get access to a console via the machine's sc, using expect I did the following:



proc ilom3 {} {

	send "console -f\r"

	expect "\[y/n\]"

	send "y\r"

	expect "ALOM\."

	send "\r"

	return 0

}

proc ilom2 {} {

	send "stop /SP/console\r"

	expect "(y/n)\? "

	send "y\r"

	expect -re ".+" 

	send "start /SP/console\r"

	expect "(y/n)\? " 

	send "y\r"

	expect "To stop, type ESC ("

	send "\r"	

	return 0

}


expect {

	-re "-> " ilom2

	-re "sc> " ilom3

}
