Upgrade to Solaris 2.7 from 2.6

Hello,
How can I obtain Solaris 2.7 upgrade media from SUN?
Do I have to pay for this or does it come with my support
agreement with SUN?
Where can I get some info also on upgrade process?
Thanks in Advance.

Please check out these web sites for more information ...

You will be able to download Solaris 7 and 8. Or you can contact
your sales person, if you have one.
Or, visit store.sun.com .

HBA controller name changes after upgrading to solaris 11.2 from solaris 11.1

we have upgraded OS on control domain from Sol 11.1 to Sol 11.2 . After upgrade controller name of HBAs and NPIV wwns changed ( like if it is c2 prior to upgrade , post upgrade controller name changes to c8). Due to this we have to redo virtual disk mapping for all ldoms hosted on this machine. . Would it be possible to preserve the HBA controller names across OS versions ? we even observed this issue while upgrading SRU of solaris 11.2 system. We have to upgrade around 20 systems to solaris 11.2 and with this issue upgrade seems to be a tedious task. Any idea if there is any fix or workaround for it ?

Are your disks only connected to one single HBA?
We use MPXIO to MultiPath over Multiple HBAs. Controller never changed here for the MPXIO devices.
Best regards,
Marcel

Oracle 10g RAC to 11g RAC Upgrade on Solaris

Hi,
We are planning to do a migration of a 4 Node Oracle 10g RAC on Solaris 9 to 11g with Solaris 10. We'd like know what would be the best path to take. We cannot afford any downtime!
Options: Are these feasible? Which option is best? Any documents links?
a) Do a rolling upgrade of Oracle from 10g to 11g. Then take down individual nodes and upgrade the Solaris OS from 9 to 10 and bring them up back into the cluster. Is there any known issues taking this path? Is a rolling upgrade like this possible?
b) Do an upgrade of the Solaris OS from 9 to 10 on each node and then bring them back up? Is this practical? Does Oracle allow different versions of OS running on different nodes?
c) Use Dataguard with 2 different RAC environments (2 nodes each). How would this work? Is it the only possible way? Any steps please?
Thanks

a) Do a rolling upgrade of Oracle from 10g to 11g. Then take down individual nodes and upgrade the Solaris OS from 9 to 10 and bring them up back into the cluster. Is there any known issues taking this path? Is a rolling upgrade like this possible?Hi,
first of all i would not change several components (OS, database version) at a time. My recommendation is to make small steps and start with the operating system first. Seconds recommendation is to test and test everything in your dev or test environment prior doing the upgrades in the productive environment. Trust me: You will face problems :-) So you better try it beforehand!
b) Do an upgrade of the Solaris OS from 9 to 10 on each node and then bring them back up? Is this practical? Does Oracle allow different versions of OS running on different nodes?As far i know you can run different operating system versions on different nodes if they are supported (Solaris 9 and 10 are).

Solaris 9 404 Upgrade to Solaris 10 on Ultra 10

I tried to do a Solaris 9 404 Upgrade to Solaris 10 on my Ultra 10 with SVM mirrored system drives and it wouldn't get past the Upgrade Profile Initialisation section. It stayed there for a long time, maybe 20 minutes and finally came up with a Failed screen. It compalined about a missing device name, said it couldn't find root or boot and mentioned something about filesystem backups.
Is an upgrade from tis configuration really supported?
Ultra 10 440MHZ 768MB RAM. Dual 73GB SCSI mirrored with SVM system drives. One 120GB IDE media drive. There is only a main and a swap partition on the system drive ie everything is in /.
Am currently backing up the data I want from the system drives prior to attempting an initial install but I'd obviously prefer to upgrade the system and keep the SVM filesystems as they are.

Solaris Installation question (from sun course)

Hello, I am just learning about solaris from the course WS-2001-S10. I hope this kind of question is fit for this forum...otherwise please direct me to where I can ask about it.
There is a review question at the end of the installation module like this:
Which Solaris 10 OS installation methods are available to perform a standard upgrade?
     Solaris suninstall and Custom Jumpstart
     [x]Solaris suninstall, Solaris Web Start, and Custom Jumpstart
     Solaris Web Start and Custom Jumpstart
Feedback:
     Correct.
The correct answer is 2 but i don't really get it why. In the course they say nothing about Web Start and from what i have read Web Start is just a Web-Based Jump Start installation.
In the course SUN says that "The methods available for a standard upgrade are Solaris GUI installation, the CLI installation, and the custom JumpStart procedure. "
So "suninstall, Solaris Web Start, and Custom Jumpstart" from the answer equals "Solaris GUI installation, the CLI installation, and the custom JumpStart procedure" from course...
Also from what I understood the jumpstart installation is also CLI ...(totally confused now)
Can someone shed some light on this please?

Upgrading to Solaris 10/08 Error: The disc you inserted is not a Solaris CD

I am trying to upgrade an e450 to Solaris 10/08 from 8/07.
I boot from CD 1 and run through all the pre-install questions. The system gets to the point where it asks me if I want to do a standard install or whatever the other option is. I choose standard and some scripts are run the disk is checked, then I get the message:
ERROR: The disc you inserted is not a Solaris CD/DVD.
Googl'ing that error message doesn't help. There are suggestions to modify a BIOS setting, but as far as I can tell the e450 has no way to enter the bios (at least there is nothing I can find in the manual or through more google'ing). Other posts only talk about the issue occurring on a MAC.
Is there some trick to this that I should know?
Thanks
** EDIT to make subject more informative **
Edited by: TimD on Mar 8, 2011 6:29 AM

As for your BIOS question, there is nothing that looks like your average PC BIOS. The system has a OBP (OpenBoot PROM) that you enter e.g. with pressing STOP-A or sending the break signal over a serial connection.
Why the system keeps telling you that the disc is not a solaris disc I can't say, but are you sure, you got the SPARC version and not the x86 version?.
The E450 is a SPARC based system.
Another question, why do you a update install and don't use live upgrade? It is much more convenient and does not require as much downtime as a upgrade install.

Hi, I have an iphone 3GS from HK. After upgrading to 4.3.3 from 4.3.2 as prompted by itunes on May 10, 2011 my entire contact in my iphone was wiped out! When I checked my backup file in Outlook Express it was also wiped out!!! What can I do now?

Hi, I have an iphone 3GS purchased in HK. After upgrading to 4.3.3 from 4.3.2 as prompted by itunes on May 10, 2011 my entire contact in my iphone was wiped out. When I checked my backed up file in Outlook Express, it was also wiped out during the synchronization. I tried to restore from backup on iTunes but still, the contact was not there anymore. I have contacted your HK Apple Hotline and talked to a technical support called TIMMY LO, he said there is nothing to do with them and he refused to provide any support to recover my contact, he even said I should try to pay extra money to 3rd party supplier and see what they can do to my iphone, despite the fact that this could be caused by the pre-mature release of 4.3.3 when a bug still hasn't been fixed. I am very disappointed at Apple's service, especially considering that I have been a loyal customer of iphone / ipod touch in the past few years. I need an official reply from Apple on this! How can Apple be so irresponsible to their own firmware failure??

Install more RAM in the computer; the Mac needs to have at least 2GB of RAM and should have 4GB or more first.

After upgrading to Solaris 10 "Can't load the root filesystem" on V245

I have a Sunfire V245 that was running on Solaris 9 (very stable). I upgraded to Solaris 10 (6/06) this morning and everything seemed to go smoothly. After the upgrade the system rebooted, but will not boot. I get the following uptput;
Rebooting with command: boot

Can't load the root filesystem
Type 'go' to resume
"go" attempts to reboot, but I end up back in the same place.
Please help.
Thanks in advanced,

It seems like the driver for that device does not exist. Since the system installed successfully it means that it S10 did find a disk. I wonder if that was a different disk than the default disk. Please boot to the miniroot and check the disk info.

1. in physical connections part can i use the same work schema
2. Can i use same contexts created or do i need to create everything as new and then try?
Thanks,
Rp.
Hi,
As you mentioned that you just upgraded the database, so the data is same and schema is same you can connect with the same work schema.
Yes, you can use the same contexts , but need to do Reverse Engineering for your new database.
And about data server, i think you also have no need to create new data server, if hostname,sid and port etc are same as these were with R11(consult with your DBAs regarding it)

Upgrading to LR 3.2 from 2.6 - Should I use the LR 3 box?

As I intend to upgrade to Lightroom 3.2 from 2.6, I wonder if I should use the upgrade box or donload a trial version and insert the key to be found in that box.
There was a thread lelated to migration from LR 1.4 to 2.2 ( http://forums.adobe.com/message/1394503#1394503 ) that strongly suggested passing over 2.0
What is best?

It doesn't matter. The results are the same. Lightroom 3.2 is Lightroom 3.2 whether you download it or buy the box.

I agree ... skip 2.0, although this seems irrelevant to your title and first paragraph.
