Hi, I try to do image-update from opensolaris 2008.05(nv86), but the command failed, and the cause seems to be cannot create/copy BE.
$ pfexec pkg image-update pkg: unable to create an auto snapshot. pkg recovery is disabled. pkg: image-update cannot be done on live image The last couple lines of image-update -v are: pkg:/[EMAIL PROTECTED],5.11-0.86:20080426T174943Z -> pkg:/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ,5.11-0.91:20080613T174335Z None -> pkg:/[EMAIL PROTECTED],5.11-0.91:20080613T182501Z None -> pkg:/[EMAIL PROTECTED],5.11-0.91:20080613T174340Z None -> pkg:/[EMAIL PROTECTED],5.11-0.91:20080613T182505Z None pkg: unable to create BE None pkg: attempt to mount opensolaris failed. pkg: image-update cannot be done on live image It might worth note that I installed OpenSolaris in a partition with a process roughly described at http://blogs.sun.com/slowhog/entry/install_opensolaris_side_by_side. I did some experiment on beadm command, and found that I cannot use the same pool, but has to copy the BE to another pool. I.e, 'pfexec beadm create test' says cannot create, but 'pfexec beadm create -p pool create test' succeed. However, I cannot activate the new BE on other pool: $ pfexec beadm activate opensolaris-1 beadm: Unable to activate opensolaris-1 Any ideas? PS. After destroy the /opt zfs filesystem, beadm create now simply segment fault. Is there an assumption there must be a /opt filesystem? Cheers, Henry
