Hi Gurus,

I haven't received any response to this. I need help to resolve this as
we are planning to upgrade all our Production Servers from Solaris 2.6
to Solaris 8 by next week. Any Help will be greatly appreciated.

I tried it on a different box with same result.
One thing which i noticed is SUNWluu and SUNlur
I installed both from my Jumpstart Box Solaris 8 5/03 however live
upgrade version is:
"Live Upgrade 2.0 10/01"
I have only one version of Solaris 8 5/03 on my Jumpstart Box.
ALso i am not clear about profile which i am using
My profile file is upgrade and its content is
install_type upgrade

Here is theoutput of my Live Upgrade:

Hi Gurus,

I figured out the problem. It was typo in the lucreate command near /opt
(s was missing) .After rectifying that I was able to create BE but while
in upgrade process it failed with error "segmentation fault".

luupgrade -u -n "Solaris_8" -s /install/Solaris_28_503/ -j
/install/config/liveupgrade/upgrade

Snip.....

Any help/pointer will be greatly appreciated. I will summarize.

Subject: Live Upgrade Help

Hi Gurus,

This is my first Live Upgrade so please bear with me if my questions

sound silly.

I am trying to do live upgrade from Solaris 2.6 to Solaris 8 and ran

into following error:

# lucreate -c "Solaris_26" -m /:/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0:ufs -m

/usr:/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s3:

ufs -m /var:/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s4:ufs -m /opt:/dev/dsk/c0t1d06:ufs -m

-:/dev/dsk/c0t

1d0s1:swap -m /home:/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s5 -n "Solaris_8"

Please wait while your system configuration is determined.

No name for Current BE.

Current BE is named <Solaris_26>.

Creating initial configuration for primary BE <Solaris_26>.

PBE configuration successful: PBE name <Solaris_26> PBE Boot Device

</dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0>.

Determining what file systems should be in the new BE.

Searching /dev for possible BE filesystem devices

luconfig: ERROR: Template filesystem definition failed for /opt..

ERROR: Configuration of BE failed.

I did the flowing steps to create a boot environment:

1) Install Latest patch Cluster on Target Box

2) Install SUNWluu and SUNWlur from Solaris 8 CD to target box.

3) Created partition on Target box on second Disk

4) Mount Jumstart /opt/install to target box as /install

5) Ran lucreate to create a boot environment on target box second disk

as below:

# lucreate -c "Solaris_26" -m /:/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0:ufs -m

/usr:/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s3:

ufs -m /var:/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s4:ufs -m /opt:/dev/dsk/c0t1d06:ufs -m

-:/dev/dsk/c0t

1d0s1:swap -m /home:/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s5 -n "Solaris_8"

1) Do I need to create a file system with newfs? Or just partition will

do?

2) On Jumpstart Box what steps I need to follow besides creating a

profile file which contains - "install_type upgrade" ?

3) How do I select cluster type? Cluster SUNWCall?

4) How do I select the Patch Cluster for Solaris 8 on jumpstart Box?

Any help will be greatly appreciated

TIA
