there is no AAAA record for images.smartos.org, however I'm using NAT64+DNS64 and I can wget and ping images.smartos.org which resolves to 64:ff9b::439e:362a (well, the CNAME does)

greetings smartosian friends, i'm running into a problem with a ipv6-only smartos gz. i cannot import or check the list of available images with imgadm, imgadm avail: error (ClientError): images.smartos.org: Error: connect ENETUNREACH

and weirdly enough, i can't catch any packets going to that 64:: ipv6 (which at the gateway where there is a ipv4, is converted to an ip4, and the gateway makes the connection). so it's like imgadm isn't even trying

on the brave new world topic of ipv6-only gzs, i'm pretty sure it's not meant to happen, but if you only have admin_ip6 defined in usbkey/config (no admin_ip/admin_netmask // no ipv4), no bhyve vm vnc will listen for any vm. i believe this is a bug, if an ip4 is missing, it should pick up the ip6. after all usbkey/config does recognize ip6 configuration

totally unrelated to the above, of course

any suggestions regarding the imgadm situation very welcome ..

while i'm at it, it seems you can crash the gz if one happens to be snoop'ing on a zone interface from the gz and the zone is shutdown. also pretty sure that's not meant to happen :p

i've started to get "message overflow on /dev/log minor #6 -- is syslogd(8) running" on smartos platforms since like december 2022. the host stops to respond to ssh (like if it could not fork shell) and only reset can lead it out of that situation.

ah, so there is a hw problem on that box.

unfortunately, zoens pool is raid0, even zpool scrub did not spotted any errors

Is there a way to capture audit events as a stream? I'm finding that the inotify and FEN setups aren't viable due to the number of directories I need to watch.

The audit facility seems to give me the necessary info (and a bunch of other stuff that I can filter out), but I need to do this real time, and there's no obvious way to "tail" an audit file.
