Hmm... this is what I was seeing:
-bash-3.2# pkg refresh
pkg: 0/1 catalogs successfully updated:
timed out
the refresh finally went through... now it's timing out on the image-update:
-bash-3.2# pkg -R /tmp/os1 image-update
Checking that SUNWipkg (in '/') is up to date...
PHASE ITEMS
Indexing Packages 527/527
DOWNLOAD PKGS FILES XFER (MB)
SUNWcsl 7/549 160/29218 6.07/502.73
pkg: An unexpected error happened during image-update:
pkg: Maximum number of timeouts exceeded during download.
Here is the output you requested:
-bash-3.2# pkg version
1b1547cb8655
