There are changes to the internals of the jail(8) command and changes to parameter names in the periodic files that have occurred in FreeBSD Release 10.2 that effects jail behavior in a very minor way. This version of qjail has an built in auto convert function that fixes those minor behavior problems with existing jails. This auto convert function is not documented in the qjail manual. Its only shown in the port install output. Issue [ qjail update -u ] from the host console. This will cause the existing "flavors" default & ssh-default directories to be renamed and new ones populated. Then in each existing jail the periodic.conf and newsyslog.conf files will be renamed with .saved suffix and new ones added. The rc.conf file will be updated in place changing the syslogd_enable= parameter value from "NO" to "YES". The new periodic.conf file has many sendmail reporting options disabled because sendmail is disabled in the jails rc.conf file by default. This drastically reduces the daily. weekly, monthly system and security status reports elapse run times. This has a major effect on operating system performance where there are a large number of jails.

Use the qjail utility to deploy small or large numbers of jails quickly.
|
|
|
|
First issue "rehash" command to enable the qjail command (if using csh).
|
|
Then issue "man qjail-intro" to read the qjail introduction.
|
|
After reading that do "man qjail" for the usage details.
|
|
For the BIG PICTURE issue "man qjail-howto".

For users who have existing qjail environments. Please take note.
|
|
There are changes to the internals of the jail(8) command and changes to
|
|
parameter names in the periodic files that have occured in FreeBSD
|
|
Release 10.2 that effects jail behavior in a very minor way.
|
|
IF your running qjail on an 10.2 or newer version of FreeBSD you should
|
|
consider doing the following.
|
|
|
|
This version of qjail has an built in auto convert function that you may select
|
|
to choose that fixes those minor behavior problems with your existing jails.
|
|
This auto convert function is not documented in the qjail manual. Its only
|
|
shown here. So write it down.
|
|
|
|
Issue [ qjail update -u ] from the host console.
|
|
|
|
This will cause the existing "flavors" default & ssh-default directories to be
|
|
renamed and new ones populated. Then in each existing jail the periodic.conf
|
|
and newsyslog.conf files will be renamed with .saved suffix and new ones added.
|
|
The rc.conf file will be updated in place changing the
|
|
syslogd_enable= parameter value from "NO" to "YES".
|
|
|
|
The new periodic.conf file has many sendmail reporting options disabled because
|
|
sendmail is disabled in the jails rc.conf file by default. This drastically
|
|
reduces the daily. weekly, monthly system and security status reports elapse
|
|
run times. This has a major effect on operating system performance where there
|
|
are a large number of jails.
|
|
|
|
The [ qjail install ] command will install all the correct files depending on
|
|
what version of FreeBSD your host is running.
