Hi
Not a special path, so should be good to just add it in new server.

cheers

  From zone being attached:

 So I guess I need to install 139100-01 in the new server's global zone ?
 That makes sense - the original server was 05/08 but had received a 
 recommended cluster in early october, so it is probable that it received 
 some patches that were not rolled into 10/08.
 
 Hopefully, the error messages will be improved to provide a hint of what 
 the problem is.

 Thanks Jerry for the quick reply. I am making progress, but no cigar

 zoneadm: zone 'X': ERROR: attempt to downgrade package SUNWgtar, the

 It does not give me a patch number, so I can't add it to the 
 bad_patches file. Or maybe it does ?
 Is there a list of patches I should add to bad_patches for this to 
 work ? The workaround mentions an attached file, but I don't see it.

 Thanks,

   Hello,
   we're having an issue migrating a zone from one server to another.

   We would like to move zone X from A to B. We have done a 'zoneadm

From what I can tell, 125098-14 was part of 05/08, not a patch we
   added to the system after initial setup, and not something we can 
 download.
  
   Does anyone have a solution for this ? How can I migrate my zone ?

 This is bug:

 6743776 zone update on attach should ignore all special patches

 This is escalated and a patch is being developed.  The workaround
 is in the bug report (the workaround is actually the fix).  It
 updates the /usr/lib/brand/native/bad_patches file.  You can manually
 do this as well.

Hi Christophe
In the zone being attached: zonepath/root/var/sadm/pkg/SUNWgtar/pkginfo 
file there should be an entry for PATCHLIST=
could I see this, and also the one from the target system's global zones 
pkginfo.

We will be improving some of the error messages for
update on attach so that you get better info on this
sort of thing.  However, this might not be a
bad patch problem.  What were the patches for this pkg
on the original system?  I think if you get the data
Enda requested then we can tell if there is another
troublesome 'special' patch or just a missing patch.

 From the global zone:
PATCHLIST=

 From zone being attached:
PATCHLIST=139100-01

So I guess I need to install 139100-01 in the new server's global zone ?
That makes sense - the original server was 05/08 but had received a
