Now, I would like to copy (not move) the entries for those FMIDs from the 1.8 target and distribution zones to the 1.12 target and distribution zones, respectively. I don't see a way to do this. Am I missing something? I thought maybe BUILDMCS would do it for me, but apparently not. > BUILDMCS is the way to do it. 1) ACCEPT all sysmods that are in apply status only (applied but not accepted). This ensures your new environment will be at the same level as the old one. 2) BUILDMCS 3) RECEIVE/APPLY/ACCEPT the results of BUILDMCS If you had sysmods in the global zone that were in receive status, you could GZONEMERGE, but with internet retrieval of service, I would just do a RECEIVE ORDER "ALL" for the FMIDs in question and let SMP/E figure out any missing service you need in the new global zone.
