Also check cron logs to be sure nothing added to initiate the reboot.

Were there any updates prior to the reboot, as in updates to physical hardware?

The problem was figured out.

The original boot environment was not clean itself. When a new boot environment was created,
it came with all the previous issues with the original. We've got a lot...

TLDR: Patched a separate boot environment to 11.4. Activated and rebooted the system only to have it boot loop and show 11.3 on the patched boot environment.

Bootloop process: The system went...

Status: enabled for syslogd

Also checked the log provided within svcs and nothing out of the ordinary

I compared both global and local zone against the zone which is not logging. The difference was not much if not, anything warranted for a change. This is actually baffling as this appears to be...

Thanks, using diff helped me figure out what was missing.

This is isolated to just 1 non-global zone out of many zones managed
This is a Solaris 11 system on SPARC
This is NOT a branded zone
syslogd is active

This came to our attention when one of our...

Not in-front of server right now but I believe the SRU was in mid/late 2018. As for the zone, it's not a branded zone but native.

fyi, I already have SR opened with Oracle.

We are looking to upgrade from S11.3 to S11.4 with the latest SRU.

Create new BE; success
Mount new BE; success
pkg -R /mnt update the updating...

Personally, I do believe we humans have an affect on the environment. Think it's all talk? Just look at the animal kingdom we've cleaned house with, all the killing and gaming has caught up with us....

Thank you so much, this is what I was looking for !

In time I will be rebuilding a T5-4 which currently hosts S10 and S11.

I'm unable to find any documentation on managing, configuring -> installing solaris on domains. Even through
My Oracle...

neo over there pouring his heart and soul into this. Who knows... this might be a goldmine of knowledge decades from now.

Great post by Neo.

I suppose he gets a "kickback" for pushing javascript and py...j/k

Thanks RudiC for all you have done.

On Unix/Linux systems, vi
On Windows, notepad

Simplicity is key...

Well you have another year of warranty should anything else go wrong. This was a interesting story to follow ;)

Thank you so much for the response.

Puts a lot of things in perspective coming from someone who's seen it firsthand.

I think from here on out, I need to focus on my responsibilities in the...

After re-reading your post I realized that my original response was, incorrect for what you needed.

I'm not sure about the possibility of creating another
zpool from a standalone rpool. I doubt...

On Solaris 10 you would use lucreate

This allows the system to create an alternative boot environment; BE.

This new BE created on the disk but, the new BE can be patched. Once patched you...

After a quick search, it seems that you would need a 3rd party service that sends text messages as curl is unable to do this alone.

I'm pretty sure there may be a way but it would be more complex...

Just wanted to give an update to my original problem;

There was some files in root's profile and in /etc/profile.

After cleaning up the files which not needed be in there, we were successful ...

tldr; We've installed a non-global-zone from a unified archive which once booted, we're unable to gain access to the system either through zlogin or zlogin -C.

Errors;

@NEO


Thanks so much for pouring out your heart, the passion came through.



I believe my issue is not focusing on one thing at a time. End up getting caught up with the new
technologies...

I don't know how to start this but here goes.


I've been "using" Linux for over 10 years, possibly more and I still feel like I'm nowhere

where I should be. I'll be fair most of my time was...
