In that blog, you mention
Systems with less memory can still be live-upgraded.
What's the current word on performing a Live Upgrade from S10 FCS to
Solaris Express with newboot (and eventually back to S10 FCS)? I think one
issue was the lack of biosdev, which should be fixed by patch 117435-01.
I haven't tried this in a while, but managed to hack up a live upgrade from
S10 FCS to snv_16 with a shell script that produced biosdev output quite
some time ago, at that time installing the Live Upgrade packages from
snv_16 on S10 FCS. On that laptop, I'd like to keep S10 FCS as a fallback,
so I plan to luactivate the S10 FCS BE again, add current (snv_23) LU
packages and the biosdev patch and try again. Is this expected to work?
The current SX 9/05 Release Notes still mention `x86: Cannot Use Solaris
Live Upgrade to Upgrade to Solaris Express 6/05'.
Thanks.
Rainer
