Currently we are having solaris 11.1 SRU 11.1.21.4.1 installed on server. We need to upgrade it to solaris 11.2 SRU 11.2.9.5.0
Is it possible to upgrade to SRU 11.2.9.50 directly by downloading repo files or do I need to upgrade to 11.2 first and then upgrade to SRU 11.2.9.5.0? (1 Reply)

wtmpx
utmpx(4) File Formats utmpx(4)
NAME
utmpx, wtmpx - utmpx and wtmpx database entry formats
SYNOPSIS
#include <utmpx.h>
/var/adm/utmpx
/var/adm/wtmpx
DESCRIPTION
The utmpx and wtmpx files are extended database files that have superseded the obsolete utmp and wtmp database files.
The utmpx database contains user access and accounting information for commands such as who(1), write(1), and login(1). The wtmpx database
contains the history of user access and accounting information for the utmpx database.
USAGE
Applications should not access these databases directly, but should use the functions described on the getutxent(3C) manual page to inter-
act with the utmpx and wtmpx databases to ensure that they are maintained consistently.
FILES
/var/adm/utmpx user access and adminstration information
/var/adm/wtmpx history of user access and adminstrative information
