Hi all,
Solaris 10 with non-global zone present.
I have a product installed on a non-global zone. If I uninstall the same
product but partially installed one on Global zone, the s/w is removed from
non-global zone as well. Is there any way to avoid the unistallation. I
read
"-G" option could be useful but that option is not present for pkgrm.
This doesn't happen if the global zone installation is a complete one.
Regards,
Murali
hello Murali,
the manual incorrectly states that "-G" can be used with pkgrm, however
this cannot be done. i think this is the correct behavior:
"pkgrm cannot remove a package only from the global zone if the package
is also installed in a non-global zone, or remove a package from any
subset of the non-global zones."
to keep installations clean you may want to install all "custom"
applications in non-global zones if possible and use the global zone for
"administration" purposes only.
greetings,
Stoyan
