Has anyone else seen this behavior? The other day, I created a boot environment, patched it with 150 patches, and then activated it about four hours later. I was very pleased to see it reboot into a fully- patched system with only a few minutes of downtime. However, files that were listed in the synclist file weren't synchronized. A good example is this one, from /etc/lu/synclist:
/var/adm/hourlystats.log OVERWRITE This file has one line appended once an hour. On the newly-booted boot environment, it had a gap of four hours. At the time I ran `luactivate', it reported: A Live Upgrade Sync operation will be performed on startup of boot environment <secndlu>. WARNING: The following files have changed on both the current boot environment <firstlu> zone <global> and the boot environment to be activated <secndlu>: /var/adm/hourlystats.log ... ... /var/spool/mqueue/qd09/qfmBDFRK4t016080 INFORMATION: The files listed above are in conflict between the current boot environment <firstlu> zone <global> and the boot environment to be activated <secndlu>. These files will not be automatically synchronized from the current boot environment <firstlu> when boot environment <secndlu> is activated. How could it have been updated on the new BE? There shouldn't have been a conflict. This was done on Solaris 10 5/08. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
