Hi,

Let me summarize the steps needed to upgrade from 111b to 123 based on my AI server with 'empty entire' ... please confirm it

1.  list boot env.

   # beadm list

2.  create a snapshot of existing BE in case need to roll-back

   # pfexec zfs snapshot rpool/ROOT/opensolari...@before_upgrading

3. install entire

   # pfexec pkg install [email protected],5.11

4.  workaround other bugs

   # pfexec pkg refresh --full

5. install SUNWipkg ... also confirm it stalls b123 version

   # pfexec pkg install -nv SUNWipkg

6. then ... do the image-update


Thx,

-S

Could you do a 'pkg contents -m entire'? I know for a short time, we delivered an empty entire, it's possible you're in that state.

-bash-3.2# pkg contents -m entire
set name=fmri value=pkg:/[email protected],5.11-0.111:20090512T144328Z
set name=description value="entire incorporation"
set name=variant.arch value=sparc value=i386
set name=publisher value=opensolaris.org
-bash-3.2#


Yep, you hit the bad place. I think the safest thing is probably to zfs rollback to the snapshot taken before the update was attempted (the one mounted at /tmp/tmp4mS_LL). Then do
pkg install [email protected],4.11-0.111
Sorry, that should be @0.5.11,4.11

*sigh*
@0.5.11,5.11

Sorry, still getting used to a new keyboard.

Then do 'pkg install -nv SUNWipkg' and assuming that now shows a small number of packages being updated, install SUNWipkg, then try pkg image-update again.
