Operating Systems Solaris system clone : sun4V --->sun4u ? Post 302622651 by rbatte1 on Thursday 12th of April 2012 11:48:04 AM

I've not heard of a "flar" image, but I think you are talking about what I remember as jumpstart, comparable to NIM on AIX and I'm sure invented everywhere else too (is it ignite on HP-UX?). That's more of an install server and in setting that up, you would include all the software to run on any (supported) hardware architecture.

I'm not that fits the bill here, but it may be possible to install from CD then ufsrestore over the top to replace all the configuration files. No guarentees, but it might work.

Be careful if you have the network card plugged in as you may end up with an IP conflict with the original server causing all sorts of trouble.

Much testing required.



I hope that this helps

Cloning machine from sun4u to sun4v using flar

Trying to clone an old V240 (sun4u) onto a new T2000 (sun4v). Managed to create a flar on the V240.

TINYMUX-INSTALL(1)					      General Commands Manual						TINYMUX-INSTALL(1)

NAME
tinymux-install - installer for the tinymux flavor mush server SYNOPSIS
tinymux-install [OPTION] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the tinymux-install command. It was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. tinymux-install is a program that installs the tinymux server in the user directory from which it is ran. It provides all necessary data and configuration files for each user account it is setup for, as well as the restart script needed to initiate an instance of the tinymux server process. tinymux-install itself should only be run once per user to install the necessary files and links. All updating of the tinymux server should be done on a global level by the system administrator. OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. -h, --help display this help and exit -v, --version output version information and exit AUTHOR
This manual page was written by Ervin Hearn III <noltar@korongil.net>, for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others). SEE ALSO
