This morning I filed 6493109 for the problem with the pfil service
not yet being removed on an upgrade. Following this, it has been
suggested to use the following as the means to remove it:
----------------------------------
Is there a reason why you can't do what SUNWcsr postinstall does:
SVCCFG_REPOSITORY=$PKG_INSTALL_ROOT/etc/svc/repository.db
export SVCCFG_REPOSITORY
if [ -x /usr/sbin/svcadm -a -x /usr/sbin/svccfg -a \
-f $PKG_INSTALL_ROOT/var/svc/manifest/network/datalink.xml ]; then
if [ -r $PKG_INSTALL_ROOT/etc/svc/volatile/repository_door ]; then
#
# Local package install. Need to disable the services first
# before deleting.
#
svcadm disable -s svc:/network/aggregation >/dev/null 2>&1
svcadm disable -s svc:/network/datalink-init >/dev/null 2>&1
svcadm disable -s svc:/network/datalink >/dev/null 2>&1
fi
svccfg delete svc:/network/aggregation >/dev/null 2>&1
svccfg delete svc:/network/datalink-init >/dev/null 2>&1
svccfg delete svc:/network/datalink >/dev/null 2>&1
fi
------------------------------
How does this method compare with using /var/svc/profile/upgrade?
And what is the process for obtaining a contract to use the
file /var/svc/profile/upgrade ?
