Patching broken in Live Upgrade from Solaris 9 to Solaris 10

I'm using Live Upgrade to upgrade a Solaris 9 system to Solaris 10. I installed the
LU packages from Solaris 10 11/06 plus the latest Live Upgrade patches. Everything
went fine until I attempted to use `luupgrade -t' to apply Recommended and Security patches to the
Solaris 10 boot environment. It gave me this error:
ERROR: The boot environment <sol10env> supports non-global zones.The current boot environment does not support non-global zones. Releases prior to Solaris 10 cannot be used to maintain Solaris 10 and later releases that include support for non-global zones. You may only execute the specified operation on a system with Solaris 10 (or later) installed.
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to get the Recommended patches installed without having to first activate and boot up to 10?
Thanks in advance.

Tried it - got kind of excited for a couple of seconds......but then it failed:

  • Live Upgrade from 8 to 10 keeping Oracle install

    Hi everyone,
    I'm trying to figure out how to do a Live Upgrade from Solaris 8 (SPARC) to 10 and still keep my Oracle available after the reboot.
    Since all of the Oracle datafiles are on /un or /opt/oracle I figure I can just create a new BE for /, /etc and /var. From there I'd just need to edit /etc/vfstab, /etc/init.d/ (for db startups), copy over /var/opt/oracle/, mount /opt/oracle.
    Does that sound right? Has anyone done this?
    On a side note, I'm still trying to figure out Live Update. My system is configed with RAID 1 under Solstice (metatool). I'm concerened about being able to access the MetaDB once the BE switch goes through. Should I set up a new mirror for the new BE prior to running LU? Or should I configure the mirror for the new BE once the switchover has gone through?

    Hello dfkoch,
    To upgrade from ColdfFusion 8/ColdfFusion 9 to ColdfFusion 10, please download the setup for ColdfFusion 10 from http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/downloads.html#cf10productdownloads and install the same with the serial number.
    The upgrade price can be checked at www.adobe.com or alternatively you can call our sales team.
    Hope this helps.

  • Applying individual patches to a Live Upgrade Environment

    Hi all
    Is it possible to apply individual patches to a Live Upgrade Environment? More specifically, is it possible to apply a kernel patch to the LUE?
    I was thinking that the command would look like this:
    patchadd -R /alt_env_root /location/144500-19
    In the README I don't find anything for patching a LUE and only mention of installing it in single user mode or when the system is close to totally idle.
    Dean

    yes u can apply the individul patches anad kernel patches in the lu enviornment
    for that first u need to create ABE
    luupgrade -n mytestBE -t -s /patchesfolder 166981-17
    you can refer this below link

  • Sun Live Upgrade with local zones Solaris 10

    I have M800 server running global root (/) fs on local disk and running 6 local zones on another local disk. I am running solaris 5.10 8/07.
    I used live upgrade to patch the system and created new BE (lucreate). Both root fs are mirror as RAID-1.
    When I ran lucreate, it copies all 6 local zones root fs to the global root fs and failed no enogh space.
    What is the best procedure to use lu with local zones.
    Note: I used lu with global zone only, and worked without any problem.
    regards,

    I have been trying to use luupgrade for Solaris10 on Sparc, 05/09 -> 10/09.
    lucreate is successful, but luactivate directs me to install 'the rest of the packages' in order to make the BE stable enough to activate. I try to find the packages indicated , but find only "virtual packages" which contain only pkgmap.
    I installed upgrade 6 on a spare disk to make sure my u7 installation was not defective, but got similar results.
    I got beyond luactivate on x86 a while ago, but had other snags which I left unattended.

    Hi,
    Was this problem ever resolved? I'm having an almost identical problem when upgrading 5.1 to 5.1sp1 (gives a 153:unknown error rather than 19). We're running Solaris 8, local hosts, no NIS, no DNS.

  • Solaris 10 update 9 - live upgrade issues with ZFS

    Hi
    After doing a live upgrade from Solaris 10 update 8 to Solaris 10 update 9 the alternate boot environment I created is no longer bootable.
    I have completed all the pre-upgrade steps like:
    - Installing the latest version of live upgrade from the update 9 ISO.
    - Create and test the new boot environment.
    - Create a sysidcfg file used by the live upgrade that has auto_reg=disable in it.
    There is also no errors while creating the boot environment or even when activating it.
    Here is the error I get:

  • Removing a slice from Live Upgrade

    Some time ago I used Live Upgrade to update a Solaris 9 4/04 V490 to Solaris 10 6/06. The internal disks (2 146GB) are mirrored using SVM. I used a couple of extra slices for the upgrade (/ & /var). I need to setup a new filesystem for an Oracle grid control install. I need to to reallocate one of the slices currently allocated to Solaris 9 (/var). I assume that I need to remove the slice/metadevice from Live Upgrade and then delete the SVM submirrors and mirror.
    What steps/commands are needed to cleanup Live Upgrade and reuse the meta disk?
    Thanks,
    sysglen

    assuming you have a filesystem on the volume, then you can't.
    Solaris has no support for shrinking filesystems.
    Well not until ZFS, but thats a different issue.
    If you don't have a filesystem on the volume, you should be able to use metaclear to scrap the volume. Then readd the devices you do want.

  • RFE: smpatch for Live Upgrade boot environments

    We use smpatch extensively, along with a local patch server, to keep our Solaris servers
    and workstations up to date on patches. I'm relatively satisfied with this facility.
    I'd like to use smpatch to apply patches to a Live Upgrade boot environment, but it
    doesn't offer that option. All I really need to do is to point it at an alternate root to do
    the analysis and patch download. Live Upgrade already has the ability to apply patches
    from a local directory. I've had to turn to the competition, pca, to do the analysis and
    download.
    Please request that this ability be added to smpatch.

    Unfortunately man pages are not usually updated after an initial release. However there is a change request 6481979 to add it to the man pages. The option is now present in the smpatch help when no parameters are provided to the command only as "-b boot-env". As an example;
    $ smpatch add -b altboot -i 111111-11
    The relevent change requests were 6366823 for Update Connection and 4974240 historically for smpatch. As realisation detection used in an analysis may depend on active software or drivers to extract data this cannot be statically extracted from a system image so a correct analysis cannot be done which appears to be why only add, remove and update were given the boot environment option.

  • C6150 won't print after upgrade from Vista to Win 7

    Hello.
    I have a C6150 AIO that worked fine under Vista.  Since I've upgraded to Win 7, I cannot get a printout from any application or the Windows test print.  The HP Solution Center test print works fine.
    -  Printer is hooked up wirelessly
    -  I've installed the latest driver from HP that is supposed to be Win 7 ready
    -  I've also installed the patch they recommend after upgrading from Vista
    There is no error.  Print job shows up briefly in the print manager window, then disappears as though it printed.  I'm at a loss, any help would be appreciated.

    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I hope I have now sorted this problem.....
    After numerous atems to install HP Windows 7 drivers & apps and failing I decided to restore the PCs to the day before I first installed the Drivers etc.
    Then I unistall HP software and reinstalled the new drivers etc. This I had to do a couple of times on the Laptop (restore 3 days back).
    After installing the HP software you can print a test page, print OK. Then goto printer properties and ty to print a test page from there, if this is unsuccessful  restore system and start again.  Most it took me was three attemps.
    Now allI have to do is hope that the windows updates dont mess it all up again!
    Hope this helps you......... Good luck

  • Upgrading from Solaris 10 s10_72 (beta) so patches work

    Thanks!

    So I took the upgrade option from the 6/05 release I downloaded today from the Express program.

    Can I assume pca does not identify any patches for Solaris 11.
    Am I now on a patchable a supportable platform?
    (Previous threads had said there was no upgrading from Beta - but I appear to have done it with 6/05)
    Thanks!

  • How to upgrade from Solaris 10 u2 to Solaris 10 u3 using Live Upgrade?

    Thank you for your help!

    Try the following documentation:

  • Looking for information on best practices using Live Upgrade to patch LDOMs

    This is in Solaris 10. Relatively new to the style of patching... I have a T5240 with 4 LDOMS. A control LDOM and three clients. I have some fundamental questions I'd like help with..
    Namely:
    #1. The Client LDOMS have zones running in them. Do I need to init 0 the zone or can I just +zoneadm zone halt+ them regardless of state? I.E. if it's running a database will halting the zone essentially snapshot it or will it attempt to shut it down. Is this even a nessessary step.
    #2. What is the reccommended reboot order for the LDOMs? do I need to init 0 the client ldoms and the reboot the control ldom or can I leave the client LDOM's running and just reboot the control and then reboot the clients after the control comes up?
    #3. Oracle. it's running in several of the zones on the client LDOM's what considerations need to be made for this?
    I am sure other things will come up during the conversation but I have been looking for an hour on Oracle's site for this and the only thing I can find is old Sun Docs with broken links.

    Before you use live upgrade, or any other patching technique for Solaris, please be sure to read http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23823_01/html/E23801/index.html which includes information on upgrading systems with non-global zones. Also, go to support.oracle.com and read Oracle Solaris Live Upgrade Information Center [ID 1364140.1]. These really are MANDATORY READING.
    For the individual questions:
    #1. During the actual maintenance you don't have to do anything to the zone - just operate it as normal. That's the purpose of the "live" in "live upgrade" - you're applying patches on a live, running system under normal operations. When you are finisihed with that process you can then reboot into the new "boot environment". This will become more clear after reading the above documents. Do as you normally would do before taking a planned outage: shut the databases down using the database commands for a graceful shutdown. A zone halt will abruptly stop the zone and is not a good idea for a database. Alternatively, if you can take application outages, you could (smoothly) shutdown the applications and then their domains, detach the zones (zoneadm detach) and then do a live upgrade. Some people like that because it makes things faster. After the live upgrade you would reboot and then zoneadm attach the zones again. The fact that the Solaris instance is running within a logical domain really is mostly besides the point with respect to this process.
    As you can see, there are a LOT of options and choices here, so it's important to read the doc. I ***strongly*** recommend you practice on a test domain so you can get used to the procedure. That's one of the benefits of virtualization: you can easily set up test environments so you cn test out procedures. Do it! :-)
    #2 First, note that you can update the domains individually at separate times, just as if they were separate physical machines. So, you could update the guest domains one week (all at once or one at a time), reboot them into the new Solaris 10 software level, and then a few weeks later (or whenever) update the control domain.
    If you had set up your T5240 in a split-bus configuration with an alternate I/O domain providing virtual I/O for the guests, you would be able to upgrade the extra I/O domain and the control domain one at a time in a rolling upgrade - without ever having to reboot the guests. That's really powerful for providing continuous availability. Since you haven't done that, the answer is that at the point you reboot the control domain the guests will lose their I/O. They don't crash, and technically you could just have them continue until the control domain comes back up at which time the I/O devices reappear. For an important application like a database I wouldn't recommend that. Instead: shutdown the guests. then reboot the control domain, then bring the guest domains back up.
    3. The fact that Oracle database is running in zones inside those domains really isn't an issue. You should study the zones administration guide to understand the operational aspects of running with zones, and make sure that the patches are compatible with the version of Oracle.
    I STRONGLY recommend reading the documents mentioned at top, and setting up a test domain to practice on. It shouldn't be hard for you to find documentation. Go to www.oracle.com and hover your mouse over "Oracle Technology Network". You'll see a window with a menu of choices, one of which is "Documentation" - click on that. From there, click on System Software, and it takes you right to the links for Solaris 10 and 11.

  • Solaris 10 5/08 live upgrade only for customers with serviceplan ?

    Live upgrade fails due to missing /usr/bin/7za
    Which seems to be installed by adding patch 137322-01 on x86 according to release notes http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-4078/installbugs-114?l=en&a=view
    But this patch (may also be the case for Sparc patch) are only available for customers with a valid serviceplan.
    Does this mean that from now on its required to purchase a serviceplan if you would run Solaris 10 and use the normal procedures for system upgrades ?
    A bit disappointing ...
