Solaris 11 has finally been released. I have googled a bit, but can not find info how to upgrade via package manager. Anyone knows if it is possible, and how to do it?
I dont want to wipe my Solaris 11 Express installation and reinstall S11.

Ok, I get error messages when I try to upgrade S11E. I have installed IPS.HOMEUNIX.COM media packages (VLC, etc). Anyone know how to fix these problems?
These packages may not be installed together. Any non-conflicting set may
be, or the packages must be corrected before they can be installed.

Reason: Add CODE tags.
What the package system is trying to tell you is that it can't install your ips.homeunix.com packages because they want the 'group' on directories/files to be different than the packages found in the base system.
You need to either remove the ips.homeunix.com packages, or fix them so that they don't conflict.
For now, I would suggest removing the packages so you can upgrade.
After upgrading, I would then fix the packages and reinstall them.

"...After upgrading, I would then fix the packages and reinstall them...."
How would I do this? Fix packages? Edit them?
Until then, I will reboot into an earlier GRUB entry, where I have not installed those packages, and upgrade to Solaris 11. I really love the BE in GRUB!
I want to move all files from one directory to another directory excluding today (sysdate files) on daily basis.
file name is in pattern file_2013031801, file_2013031802 etc (2 Replies)
what does today=${1:-${today}} mean???
I saw a script which has these two lines:
today=`date '+%y%m%d'`
today=${1:-${today}}
but both gives the same value for $today
user:/export/home/user>today=`date '+%y%m%d'`
user:/export/home/user>echo $today
