Hello,
"15.6.1.4 Upgrading" in the FreeBSD manual provides a great step, by
step way to safely update jails. I've just installed apache in the host
system, and now I wish to propagate it to the system wide jail skeleton,
and www jail.
But given my limited experience with jails, I am perplexed to read in
the 2nd last sentence of this section: "Do not forget to run mergemaster
in each jail".
The instruction doesn't say between which steps (which one between 1
through 6) to run mergemaster, and I'm left guessing as I'm still coming
up to speed on jail configuration and maintenance.
Carefully reading *15.6.1.2 "Creating the Template"* it says that
mergemaster is run in:
Step 4 - Use Mergemaster to install missing configuration files...
This follows:
Step 1 - Create a read-only directory structure for the read-only file
system...(make installworld)
Step 2 - Prepare FreeBSD ports collection for the jails...
Step 3 - Create a skeleton for the read-write portion...
However *15.6.1.4 Upgrading* shares only step 1 (make installworld), but
steps 2 through 6 are quite different. I am left wondering between
which steps in 15.6.1.4 Upgrading that I am to run mergemaster on each
jail. I would be very happy to get a tip.
Thank you,
Matthew
