The LU command set/implementation is dead - it was both encumbered and
highly tied to the SVR4 package system.  However, the LU concept is not
only not dead, it's core to the IPS architecture.   "pkg image-update"
is the equivalent of LU - makes a zfs clone of your current boot
environment, upgrades that clone, and then tells you to reboot when
ready to use it.   "beadm" (boot environment administration) replaces
most of the other lu* commands.
