Code:
 
# lufslist current_be
               boot environment name: current_be
Filesystem              fstype    device size Mounted on          Mount Options
----------------------- -------- ------------ ------------------- --------------
/dev/md/dsk/d1          swap      17182949376 -                   -
/dev/md/dsk/d0          ufs       21476081664 /                   -
/dev/md/dsk/d3          ufs        4303552512 /var                -
/dev/md/dsk/d4          ufs       10743250944 /opt                -

 
# lufslist Solaris10_910_be
               boot environment name: Solaris10_910_be
               This boot environment is currently active.
               This boot environment will be active on next system boot.
Filesystem              fstype    device size Mounted on          Mount Options
----------------------- -------- ------------ ------------------- --------------
/dev/md/dsk/d1          swap      17182949376 -                   -
/dev/dsk/c1t1d0s5       ufs       53695414272 /                   -
/dev/md/dsk/d0          ufs       21476081664 /home/oracle        -

As you can see, I've posted the lufslist output for both BEs. To me, current_be looks ok but I'm concerned that the Solaris10_9_10_be has /home/oracle mounted on it and is pointing /dev/md/dsk/d0 which is the location of root filesystem

The output from luumount:
Code:
# luumount current_be
ERROR: boot environment <current_be> is not mounted

Indeed the 'alt.current_be..' filesystems are not mounted. I guess it mounts these when I do luactivate?

Thanks
Paul

Hello again

I did try luactivate current_be on the off-chance and got slighlty different output:

Code:
 
# luactivate current_be
A Live Upgrade Sync operation will be performed on startup of boot environment <current_be>.
ERROR: boot environment <current_be> is not mounted
ERROR: mount point </.alt.current_be> is already in use
ERROR: failed to create mount point </.alt.current_be> for file system </>
ERROR: cannot mount boot environment by name <current_be>
ERROR: Unable to determine the configuration of the target boot environment <current_be>.

The df command does return the '.alt.current_be...' filesystems but I can't unmount with luumount. I can however unmount with umount.
