What is the proper procedures for moving third party xml out of the way
and or regenerating the order for SMF when a patch I suspect the kernel
patch either 120011-14 and or 127111-03+ changes dependencies.
I can't confirm this but I suspect there were changes made to the SMF
with the new kernel patch 120011-14 and or 127111-03+ else dependencies
were introduced that no longer make customer's 3rd party scripts work
upon boot. After the latest kernel patch, I see a number of cases where
the SMF particularly milestone multi-user no longer can boot to an
online state. It either gets stuck in offline or maintenance and unless
we take 3rd party stuff out of the picture I can't get around it. I
noticed dependency issues in the *manifest*.log. I figured a way to get
the customer's system up and running but it seems more like a hack to me
and I need advice on a better way to do this. I was thinking perhaps
there is a svccfg export and or delete or something that could be done
to regenerate the SMF order. Is there anything like this and or should
I suggest an RFE?
My question is....
How to move SMF 3rd party xmls <repository stuff> out of the way when
you see error in the manifest logs?
Here is what I did to get around my customer's issue but I know there
has to be a better way to get around this.
# mv /var/svc/manifest/application/coldfusion.xml /var/svc/holding
# /lib/svc/bin/restore_repository
choose seed since I had customer backup stuff
# init 6
# mv /var/svc/holding/coldfusion.xml /var/svc/manifest/application
Have the customer reimport the script into SMF, verify and reboot.
I would think there is a better way to do this.
