Operating Systems Solaris Solaris 10 liveupgrade/ABE advice Post 302976085 by os2mac on Thursday 23rd of June 2016 03:30:50 PM

ok so we do this in LDOMS but the principal is the same thing..

you'll need a separate slice for /.

what we do is we have two slices (1 and 3) for / be's and a third slice (4) for zones.

what LUactivate does is change the boot status in lustatus to switch on reboot. the boot dev should be what ever is set in lustatus.

so if by logical extension you have / on a mirror and that mirror is md1 /slice 1 your OBP boot device would be md1:a.

NAME
lutab - list of boot environments SYNOPSIS
/etc/lutab DESCRIPTION
The file /etc/lutab is a list of the boot environments (BEs) configured on a system. There are two entries for each BE. These entries have the following form: BE_id:BE_name:completion_flag:0 BE_id:root_slice:root_device:1 The fields in the lutab entries are described as follows: BE_id A unique, internally generated id for a BE. BE_name The user-assigned name of a BE. completion_flag Indicates whether the BE is complete (C) or incomplete (NC). A complete BE is one that is not involved in any copy or upgrade operation. A BE can be activated or compared only when it is complete. 0 Indicates first of two lines. BE_id As described above. root_slice Designation of the root slice. root_device Device on which the root slice is mounted. 1 Indicates second of two lines. The lutab file must not be edited by hand. Any user modification to this file will result in the incorrect operation of live upgrade. SEE ALSO
lu(1M), luactivate(1M), lucreate(1M), lucurr(1M), lufslist(1M), lustatus(1M), luupgrade(1M), attributes(5), live_upgrade(5) WARNINGS
The lutab file is not a public interface. The format and contents of lutab are subject to change. Use lufslist(1M) and lustatus(1M) to obtain information about BEs. SunOS 5.10 8 Jun 2001 lutab(4)
