Difference between installing update 8 from scratch and updating from u7

I had just installed Solaris 10 update 7 on my x4140 when I noticed update 8 came out. I am yet to install all my services (Comms suite 7, Webspace portal server and more) so it's not too late to re-install but still a few hours work. My question is, will I gain anything from installing update 8 with it's improvements over update 7 or will updating using update manager give the same OS. One advantage I can think of is that update 8 may use a more up to date ZFS version and lu version. Should I bother to re-install while it's possible?

Yes, very rarely updates do funny things to a system.

  • Difference between Replacement with a query and Replacement from Variable

    Hi Gurus
    Would explain the difference between the Replacement Path: Replacement with a query and Replacement Path: Replacement from Variable with scenarios.
    Thanks in advance,
    Aravind.S

    Hi,
    If you are using Replacement with query, the given query output will be used as input your variable. For example if you want to display the product details, which can be find our from a query.
    And Replacement with Variable will be used  when you want to give the same input  in two different fields. for example if you want to see the records from sending location and not the records from recived location at the same time. Here once you give the sending location id, it will be taken as the same input for received location.

  • Number of Podcasts Episode differences between iPod Touch in iTunes and physically from my iPod Touch.

    Physically on my iPod it says I have 19 episodes of a podcasts but when i look on my device in iTunes, it only shows that i have 11 episodes. Here are screen shots of my iPod Touch and iTunes

    Have you downloaded the additonal (or any) episodes directly onto your Touch using Wi-Fi? If so, have you Synced your iPod with your iTunes since then and what options have you set for Podcasts? (When the iPod is connected to your iTunes, look on the Device/Podcasts pane to see the settings.)

  • BCT - how to find the difference between installed BCT and the newest BCT?

    Hi,

    Hi,
    Thank you for your answer.
    I am aware of the possibilities you mention.
    I am looking for a way to find the parts of the business content that has been modified since I installed our current version WITHOUT installing anything.
    That is for example:
    If F&R business content has been moved from 3.x technology to 7.0
    If there is changes to the F&R content at all
    -> if our current version of business content already contains the newest version of Business Content for F&R, then it is not a prerequirement to an F&R project that we update business content.
    The possibility to see that the only changes might be in the area of SAP HCM ...
    Thank you.

  • Difference between Installing an application and Deploying and application

    What is the Difference between Installing an application and Deploying and application from the console?
    When deploying and app from console - > Click on deployments -> Install -> choose app path, next, next,.. Finish.
    Then it will be in prepared state. Once you activate changes, the app deployed will be in activate state. Some times even if you activate changes, it will be in prepared state. then you need to start the app which then comes to activate state.
    From above, which part is called Installing an app? Which part is called deploying an app?
    Or Are Install and Deploy both mean same?
    Edited by: user734247 on Apr 26, 2012 3:16 PM

    Installation is generally referred to making an application's physical file or directory known/accessible to WebLogic Server by configuring through the "New" option in the "Deployments" screen and targeting the servers. Installation of an application will put the status of the application in "prepared" state.
    Start is the next action expected so that the application's state transforms into "ACTIVE" by initializing the application and loading the necessary classes and creating the necessary objects to run the application.
    The above two steps together are referred to as "Deployment of an application"
    Bottomline: In short, "Deploying an application" includes "Installation of the application" AND "Activation/Start of the application"

    You need to discard or save to an external disk and then discard some of the stuff we all tend to keep forever (movies, music, pictures, docs, apps no longer used, etc.). A clogged up disk also does not function ideally either.

  • If I want to buy the iPad Air from US although I'm from Hong Kong, is there any difference between buying in Apple Store and in BestBuy ?

    If I want to buy the iPad Air from US although I'm from Hong Kong, is there any difference between buying in Apple Store and in BestBuy ?
    E.g. I buy it in BestBuy, I still can take the iPad Air to the genius bar if there are problems for the iPad?
    Thanks!

    Yes, as long as you buy a new device from an Apple Authorized reseller (which BestBuy is) then you have the normal Apple one year warranty with it.  Apple will honor that warranty in any of their stores, and anyone with any Apple device is welcome in any Apple retail store with questions or seeking help.

    Oh ok, well that was what the test said prior to reformatting the hard drive. Now, it doesn't find any trouble no matter how many times I run it. That's what has me so confused, everything seems to check out and yet...I can't do anything, not even install the software!

    What is the difference between "viewable/ printable payment history" and my "payments received history"? Shouldn't my "payments received" (money verizon got from me) be my "payment history"?

    I have not directly myself. One of the reps put me on hold while they said they spoke to finical services. He said they would not turn off my phone while he (the rep) looked into the problem. He couldn't give me a phone # to call him back the next day and told me he would call me instead on my home land line phone #. But what I got the next day was a text message that started with" DO NOT RESPOND" to this text message and it said that I was past due on my account, and that it was due immediately. signed out again with only his first name and no phone # again. Thing is he promised he could help in my first conversation with him, where I had started with "can I speak with a supervisor as I did not want to have to repeat the whole spiel again as he was going to be my third time". He said he was authorized to take care of all & any problems and I did not need a supervisor. I took him at his word and said OK. Turns out like I said earlier…I wasted 2 hours on the phone. Can't find him as I don't know what call center and no last name. I should have gotten that up info front. Hindsight is 20/20.

  • HT5192 what happen if i updated my ipod (4th generation) from there and not from my coputer??

    update my ipod touch 4th generation from there and not from my computer?

    Connecting to a new computer or iTunes will always erase the device first. Back up manually before, by right clicking on the iPod in the device list and choosing "backup". A manual backup does not include the sync process. You can use this backup to restore from after your iPod got wiped during the first sync.
    See also iTunes: About iOS backups to see more info about the content of a backup, and How to back up your data and set up as a new device if you want to know more about saving info from the iPod before setting it up in iTunes.

  • Difference between Add from transaction and Add from Authorisatio default

    Hi All,
    Could anyone tell me the difference, from PFCG -> Menu -> Add from transaction and Add from Authorisatio default?
    Thanks and Regards, Pradeep

    I'm not a fan of "hiding" stuff from users so the not appearing in the menu part isn't a biggie for me.  If you do need to give background auths for something but don't want it to appear in a menu then this will let you do it without adding manual auths or changing standard object values
    Where I find it useful is that it allows you to assign & maintain indicators for stuff like Function Modules and Services.  No real business advantage other than it makes your security implementation cleaner.
