Mike and Satinder:
We ran into this in upgrade testing sometimes. Doing bart compare will
help to identify what the differences are and why upgrade behaves
differently. You should also check
/var/sadm/system/data/upgrade_cleanup and see whether there is anything
you need to do after upgrade.
For example, if you upgrade from Solaris 9 to S10, the Iplanet packages
are left behind for transition purposes. If you do a new install, the
Iplanet packages will not be installed.
If you can get the data between the upgrade and new install system, you
can contact me privately and I will check whether some of these are
known issues. Bugs might need to be filed to get this fixed.
