Re: [zfs-discuss] patching a solaris server with zones on zfs file systems

2012-01-21 Thread Enda O'Connor

Hi
Need more info here, what exactly is the root FS, ie zfs?
what kernel rev is current ( uname -a )
is there a specific patch that is being installed.

if so then Live upgrade is best bet, combined with perhaps recommended 
patch cluster.


apply latest rev of 119254 and 121430 ( SPARC ) or ( 121431 and 119254 
), then use lucreate to create new BE and the installpatchset script in 
recommended cluster to patch the ABE.


If Live upgrade is not an option, then I suggest going with recommended 
patch cluster still, it is well tested and the install script is very 
robust. Depending on what current kernel level is, zones might have to 
be halted if patching the live BE.


If doing tis manually, then apply latest rev of 119254/119255 ( 
SPARC/x86 ) patch utils patch first.

Thank you all,
