I would like to ask what will be the best practice for the following setup
My current practice is do
1) lumake -n Second
2) ./installpatchset --apply-prereq --passcode
3) ./installpatchset -B Second --passcode
4) luactivate Second
-- if booting to "Second" fail, then i will go back to "First"
============================================
The question is,
q1) when doing lumake to ABE, should we shutdown myzone ?
(tried without shutting down non-globalzone throughout the whole process, did not encounter any issue though)
But I would recommend that you do a luactivate -s if you patch and there is a significant delay between the lumake and the reboot. This will sync the file systems between the BE's.

hi os2mac,
thanks for your advice. just wondering, what does "-s" actually compares and syncup - how long would it take? and i would believe the syncing limited to only 1 way (from the previous active BE to the alternate BE ) right ?

I was applying patch on global zone and got the error message saying.
What may be the problem? Do I need to mount the nonglobal zone file system? IF is use mountall -l would mount all the file system?
Thanks in advance. (4 Replies)
