[OmniOS-discuss] 8806 back port

2018-03-13 Thread Schweiss, Chip
The 8806 backport will no longer apply to r151022ap.

# pkg apply-hot-fix --be-name=omniosce-r151022ap-8806 8806-backport_r22.p5p
No updates available for this image.
pkg set-publisher: Could not refresh the catalog for omnios

file protocol error: code: E_FAILED_INIT (2) reason: Package archive
/root/8806-backport_r22.p5p does not contain the requested package file(s):
publisher/omnios/catalog/catalog.attrs.
Repository URL: 'file:///root/8806-backport_r22.p5p'. (happened 4 times)


Some things are not clear about hot-fixes.

Do they need to be reapplied after each update?

Are they only compatible with the release they are built against?

Cheers!

I think this is the relevant message - we need to look at why you got the
additional errors but ignore them for now.

; Some things are not clear about hot-fixes.

No. A hotfix usually updates a specific package; 'system/kernel' in the
case of 8806.

If a weekly update includes a new version of that package, then it will also
include the rolled-up hotfix. If a weekly update does not include that
package then you keep the hot-fixed version in place.

; Are they only compatible with the release they are built against?

No, but they won't apply if you have the same or a newer version of the
affected package installed already.

HTH.

Hi Chip,

This error message actually looks like you still have the publisher set
from the last time you applied the fix by hand. Can you check the output
of 'pkg publisher'?
