Ok I managed to redo everything and create a new BE which is copy of active BE and new BE is patched using solaris-10-recommended patch cluster
I am not able to activate it though,
-bash-3.00# luactivate Solaris10_lu
Code:
A Live Upgrade Sync operation will be performed on startup of boot environment <Solaris10_lu>.
ERROR: <706> required packages are not installed on boot environment <Solaris10_lu>.
INFORMATION: </var/sadm/system/data/packages_to_be_added> on boot
environment <Solaris10_lu> contains a list of required packages that are
not installed. The boot environment is missing required packages. This
might be the result of an upgrade operation that failed or that is
incomplete. If the boot environment was upgraded using a multiple media
distribution, for example the Solaris CD media, you must continue the
upgrade process until it is fully completed. Failure to complete the
upgrade process with all media of the software distribution makes the boot
environment unstable.

lustatus
Code:
Boot Environment Is Active Active Can Copy

-------------------------- -------- ------ --------- ------ ----------
c0t0d0s0 yes yes yes no -
Solaris10_lu yes no no yes -
Now, I don't really understand why are there more packages required to be installed in new BE when it is already a copy of currently active BE and also patched with patch cluster?
Any idea?
Thanks.

I'm not sure what caused this error, but the first thing to do to fix it is to look at /var/sadm/system/data/packages_to_be_added and see exactly which package(s) are missing. Then check the BE you copied to see if they are there. If not you have your answer, add them to the BE and do your copy again. If they are there then it's a matter of figuring out why they didn't copy to the new BE correctly.

Hi rhfrommn,
I did check the " /var/sadm/system/data/packages_to_be_added " file but it was a huge list - about 700 packages. In the original BE they are not there. I wonder why luactivate demands those packages.
this command now worked and it did activate Solaris10_lu BE. However it did show an error for only 1 package. I did not careto check which package because new BE is active.
Quote:
init 6 and there you go my new BE came up fine..
Now funny thing is when I wanted to go back to original BE- c0t0d0, I ran
luactivate c0t0d0 and I still see 700 package list and activation failed
then I went to ok prompt and did
Quote:
ok setenv boot-device /pci@1f,0/ide@d/disk@0,0:a
boot
it brought up original BE - c0t0d0, so this means that 700 packages which luactivate complains about is a bug and this 700 package requirement should not be mandatory if BE can boot anyways if you do setenv, so I am sure if I had setenv for Solaris10_lu BE then it would have booted just fine..

Glad you got it working. I agree, that is pretty suspicious behavior and seems like a bug. If you have Sun support might be worth reporting it as a low priority ticket so they know about it.
