Hi,
I have a VM instance of OpenSol 2008.11 snv_99 and I'm trying to upgrade
it to the current 'stable' version.
I managed to find the #pkg image-update command but unfortunately it
comes up with this error:
[code]
s:~# pkg image-update
Creating Plan -pkg: image-update failed (inventory exception):
No matching package could be found for the following FMRIs in any of the
catalogs for the current authorities:
pkg:/[email protected],5.11-0.99
[/code]
Can anyone give me a hand to get the latest 'current' version which
should be build 111 or 112 I need to check my proper HD install :-) ??
For the quick question about hypervisors, really all I would like to
know is which is the best 'bare bones' hypervisor around?? Vbox
obviously needs a host operating system with GUI and doesn't allow the
guest OS to see the machine's hardware fully as it has own 'virtualized'
drivers for NIC etc.
I am debating to go with Vmware, Citrix Xen, or Sun's own Xvm-server but
haven't got a clue where to begin.....
Really what I would like to do is be given opinions on this and also
shown any howto start kind of documentation as I have never used any of
them before! - Although I have SSH'd into a friends machine running
Vmware vSphere which seemed to be using a Linux kernel.
Also as my laptop is the 64bit system I have, would it be possible to
run and test one of these in Vbox in order to learn how to use them???
Many thanks,
Kaya
