After a liveupgrade and luactivate I can login to the -new- BE. My question is: do I have to luactive the -old- BE again if I want to chose that one from the grub menu or can I just run it if I want to. -- Dick Hoogendijk -- PGP/GnuPG key: 01D2433D + http://nagual.nl/ | SunOS sxce snv107 ++ + All that''s really worth doing...

So after tinkering with lucreate and luactivate I now have several boot environments but the active one is unfortunately not bootable. How can I access the luactivate command from boot:net? boot net:dhcp -s mkdir /tmp/mnt zpool import -R /tmp/mnt rpool I poke around in /tmp/mnt but do not find usr/sbin under there. This is on Sparc. I suppo...

...g sorted out now, I want to move my BE from the old disk to the new disk. I created a new zpool, named RPOOL for distinction with the existing "rpool". I then did lucreate -p RPOOL -n new95 This completed without error, the log is at the bottom of this mail. I have not yet dared to run luactivate. I also have not yet dared set the ACTIVE flag on any partitions on the new disk (I had some interesting times with that previously). Before I complete these steps to set the active partition and run luactivate, I have a few questions: 1. I somehow doubt that the lucreate process installed a boot...

Hello experts, I heard that there is something called anonymous dtrace that would still be running when I do a reboot. Basically, I have the following problem: The /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc file in my alternate boot environment is getting modified when I reboot the machine after doing luactivate <ABE>. It happens only on init 6, doesn''t happen when I do a simple reboot. The set bootpath property in this file is getting changed after the machine boots up for the first time in the newly created BE resulting in kernel panic (gives error: cannot mount root path /pci at 0,0/pc...

I''ve got a server that freezes when I run a zpool scrub from cron. Zpool scrub runs fine from the command line, no errors. The freeze happens within 30 seconds of the zpool scrub happening. The one core dump I succeeded in taking showed an arccache eating up all the ram. The server''s running Solaris 10 u3, kernel patch 127727-11 but it''s been patched and seems to have

With the release of the Nevada build 90 binaries, it is now possible to install SXCE directly onto a ZFS root filesystem, and also put ZFS swap onto a ZFS filesystem without worrying about having it deadlock. ZFS now also supports crash dumps! To install SXCE to a ZFS root, simply use the text-based installer, after choosing "Solaris Express" from the boot menu on the DVD. DVD download
