Howdy,
I attmpted to live upgrade my build54 machine to build57, and encountered a
goofy error when runnign lucreate. If I attempt to create a new BE with a
seperate "/var", I get the following error:
$ lucreate -n Nevada_B57 -m /:/dev/dsk/c1d0s0:ufs -m /var:/dev/dsk/c1d0s3:ufs \
-m -:/dev/dsk/c1d0s1:swap

Template entry /var:/dev/dsk/c1d0s3:ufs skipped.
luconfig: ERROR: Template filesystem definition failed for /var, all devices
are not applicable..
ERROR: Configuration of boot environment failed.
If I remove "-m /var:/dev/dsk/c1d0s3:ufs" from the lucreate command line,
everything works as expected. Does anyone happen to know what that error
"Template filesystem definition failed for /var, all devices are not
applicable.." means? The slice I am trying to use for "/var" exists, and is
sized at 2GB if that makes a difference.
Thanks for an insight,
- Ryan
