Problem with live upgrade creation: Telling me metadevices do not exist
Hi
I am having a problem creating my live upgrade environment.
Here is the error I get:
Code:
root@server:/# lucreate -c SOL10_18May -n SOL10_19May -z /lu_excludelist -m /:dev/md/dsk/d0:ufs -m /var:/dev/md/dsk/d4:ufs -m /export/home:/dev/md/dsk/d6:ufs -m -:/dev/md/dsk/d3:swap -C /dev/dsk/c1t3d0s0

ERROR: device <dev/md/dsk/d0> is not available for use with mount point </>
ERROR: cannot create new boot environment using file systems as configured
ERROR: please review all file system configuration options
ERROR: cannot create new boot environment using options provided
I have created all those metadevices prior to running the lucreate command.
I have also installed all the required packages and patches.
Can any please help me find a solution?
Thanks
