Normally I would agree with the previous opinion if that is possible. I do however understand that for various reasons sometimes it is not a viable option and sometimes liveupgrade just isn't what you want to do, so there is a third way. You can do a upgrade by booting from DVD/ uncustomized jumpstart, then choosing "upgrade installation" as the installation type.

It's more or less the same procedure as a live upgrade but without all the synching stuff that happens on first reboot after a live upgrade and can be a bit more reliable than a live upgrade.

The lufslist command is part of a suite of commands that make up the Live Upgrade feature of the Solaris operating environment. See live_upgrade(5) for a description of the Live Upgrade feature. The lufslist command lists the configuration of a boot environment (BE). The output contains the disk slice (file system), file system type, and file system size for each BE mount point. The following is an example of lufslist output. # lufslist BE_name Filesystem fstype size(Mb) Mounted on ------------------------------------------------------------------ /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s1 swap 512.11 - /dev/dsk/c0t4d0s3 ufs 3738.29 / /dev/dsk/c0t4d0s4 ufs 510.24 /opt File system type can be ufs, swap, or vxfs, for a Veritas file system. Under the Filesystem heading can be a disk slice or a logical device, such as a disk metadevice used by volume management software. The lufslist command requires root privileges. OPTIONS
The lufslist command has the following options: -l error_log Error and status messages are sent to error_log, in addition to where they are sent in your current environment. -o outfile All command output is sent to outfile, in addition to where it is sent in your current environment. -X Enable XML output. Characteristics of XML are defined in DTD, in /usr/share/lib/xml/dtd/lu_cli.dtd.<num>, where <num> is the version number of the DTD file. OPERANDS
