Our Test and QAS environment is hosted on a 2 processor SunFire V480 running Solaris 9.
Today we attempted to upgrade our databases from version 7.5.0.08 to 7.6.0.12. Both the software and the data are stored on a 50GB raid group connected to the server from an EMC Clarion storage area network. The volume is portioned 10GB for software and 40GB for data storage. The development data base shares the same software installation as the QAS database. We attempted the upgrade using this strategy - Patch Installation with SDBINST and Follow-Up Actions from the MaxDB Installation manual. We get this error message when we attempt to start the database: -24994,ERR_RTE: runtime environment error 1,Check knldiag! Kernel died before reaching ADMIN state Here are the steps we took: First shutdown both databases and stopped the x_server. Installed 7.6 using : ./SDBINST -profile all -indep_data "/var/opt/oltp/sdb/data" -indep_prog "/opt/oltp/sdb/programs" -depend "/opt/oltp/sdb/7500" -o sdb -g sdba Software installed successfully.
