Applications

We know that there is a number of liscence based apps on this old Ultra1 that are tied into the host ID. we also know that it is having some issues in regards to hardware. Once moved over we intend to decomission it.

Sun Sparc 60 jumper

Ok so Now I found the write jumper for the NVRAM on the ultra 60, it is at J2703. I have set that and tried again with no success.

What error are you getting (if any)?

You may want to look at this another way - contact the application support to get a new license for the new machine.

Lack of Messages

None other than the bytes are not changing in NVRAM.

does anybody even know if dumping the ultra-1 to the ultra-60 would even work? i've done remote dumps before between 2 identical ultra-2s and they didn't seem to want to work right at all (could've been because i did it wrong too!). anyways, the architecture on both machines are quiet different from each other so drivers and patches need to be compatible or at least upgraded ...

then when the os is stable ...

i'd worry about the apps ...

but not before then ...
