Help req for Patching on Solaris 10 Zones
Hi Experts,
Can advise on this:
Global zone running on solaris 10, & the local zones on top running on solaris 9, but we need to patch the solaris 9 local zones & also the solaris 10 global zone.
Which should be patched first to avoid any crash in case, first local zones followed by global solaris 10 or vice versa ?
can review my steps correct ?
1) dettach local zoens from global & patch the all solaris 9 local zones first.
2) then after patching perform a normal reboot 7 attach the zones again to global.
3) testing by apps ok ? then proceed.
4) dettach the local all zones again then proceed to patch the global solaris 10.
5) after pathcing, reboot & attacht the local & verify it ?
Thanks
Fizan.
