All,

Does anyone have an ISO for Solaris 10u10 for SPARC? I don't have it parked in my ISO collection (only x86). I try to keep things like this around for emergencies and I'm quite surprised such a significant release is missing from my archive.

I also missed the original email from Chris, and checking on the nearest 10u11 host shows the following which implies pulling the package from u11 for a u10 deployment is probably OK since it hasn't changed much since 2003.

As a further suggestion for Chris, if you have a running u10 system with the package installed, it shouldn't be too hard a slog to rebuild the package from a running host...

Heya Chris,I didn't see this message until now. Dang.The short answer from me 
is I don't know. I would, however, expect that if you took a look at what 
patched this package, installed the package, then patched to current, you would 
at least have a good chance of it working.If you are really lucky, There will 
only be one patch to discretely patch it. The other question is... if this host 
is already patched up to an s10u11 state, you might actually be better off 
starting with the s10u11 pkg...Meh. After writing this, the only thing I'm sure 
of is that I don't know. :/Just make sure you have good backups before you 
start. ;)Nathan.

Sol 10U10 SUNWnamos

I had a request for our lovely DBAs (aren’t they always), that they need the 
North American locale (en_US.UTF-8) to be installed in order to do their Oracle 
DB patching.
The box which they are trying to patch (well, it’s actually a full-root zone), 
is based on Solaris 10 Update 10.
 
I have Sol10U11 media, but not Sol10U10.
 
What are the implications of taking the necessary package (SUNWnamos) from 
s10u11 media and installing it on s10u10 system?
 
Ta-Chris
