Hi,
I am working on SEA code removal from Nevada which involves file removal
from ON and SFW gates.
Some, daemons and SMF services are removed. And the changes also involve
removing some packages, modifying some others.
Removing sea, sea-config, mibiisa
Modifying library/lint, net-snmp, net-snmp/addons
The ON gate on nightly generates IPS packages and the SFW gate generates
SVR4 packages.
To test my package specific changes, I created a custom repository with
the modified/obsoleted packages along with necessary changes to
consolidations. The commands run are as below
Start the repository:
/usr/lib/pkg.depotd -d /mytmp -p 16000 --set-property
publisher.prefix=seatest
Upload the custom packages as below:
<snip>
export PKG_REPO=http://localhost:16000
eval `pkgsend open
pkg:/consolidation/osnet/[email protected],5.11-0.142`
pkgsend include
/mypkg/osnet/consolidation%2Fosnet%2Fosnet-incorporation/0.5.11%2C5.11-0.142%3A20100621T175418Z/manifest
pkgsend close
eval `pkgsend open
pkg:/system/management/snmp/sea/[email protected],5.11-0.143`
pkgsend import /mypkg/system%2Fmanagement%2Fsnmp%2Fsea%2Fsea-config
pkgsend close
eval `pkgsend open pkg:/system/management/snmp/[email protected],5.11-0.143`
pkgsend import /mypkg/system%2Fmanagement%2Fsnmp%2Fsea
pkgsend close
eval `pkgsend open pkg:/service/network/snmp/[email protected],5.11-0.143`
pkgsend import /mypkg/service%2Fnetwork%2Fsnmp%2Fmibiisa
pkgsend close
eval `pkgsend open pkg:/developer/library/[email protected],5.11-0.143`
pkgsend import /mypkg/developer%2Flibrary%2Flint
pkgsend close
eval `pkgsend open pkg:/[email protected],5.11-0.142`
pkgsend include
/mypkg/entinc/entire/0.5.11%2C5.11-0.142%3A20100621T233642Z/manifest
pkgsend close
eval `pkgsend open
pkg:/consolidation/sfw/[email protected],5.11-0.142`
pkgsend include
/mypkg/sfwinc/consolidation%2Fsfw%2Fsfw-incorporation/0.5.11%2C5.11-0.143%3A20100706T172641Z/manifest
pkgsend close
eval `pkgsend open pkg:/system/management/snmp/[email protected],5.11-0.143`
pkgsend import /mypkg/SUNWnet-snmp-mgr
pkgsend import /mypkg/SUNWnet-snmp-utils
pkgsend import /mypkg/SUNWnet-snmp-core
pkgsend close

I had to modify the consolidations osnet and sfw because to upgrade my
custom packages, I had to
remove those entries from the consolidations. Otherwise, pkg command
would not allow them to be upgraded.
My custom repo url at http://129.158.193.98:16000/
I then used that repository to install the packages onto a test
box(Running nv_142).
pkg install
pkg://seatest/consolidation/osnet/[email protected],5.11-0.142
pkg install
pkg://seatest/system/management/snmp/sea/[email protected],5.11-0.143
pkg install pkg://seatest/system/management/snmp/[email protected],5.11-0.143
pkg install pkg://seatest/service/network/snmp/[email protected],5.11-0.143
pkg install pkg://seatest/developer/library/[email protected],5.11-0.143
pkg install pkg://seatest/[email protected],5.11-0.142
pkg install
pkg://seatest/consolidation/sfw/[email protected],5.11-0.142
pkg install pkg://seatest/system/management/snmp/[email protected],5.11-0.143
That worked fine and the packages were updated as expected.
I am not sure if this testing done is sufficient. So, I wanted to know
what sort of
testing should be done when IPS/SVR4 packages are obsoleted/modified?
And, how do u test a complete image upgrade of a system to the latest
modified packages? Do I need to setup a complete to do so?
Please let me know if there is any specific testing that needs to be
done before I can integrate the changes to the specific gates.
Regards,
Gowtham
