Hi Mike! Please see the "Solaris 10 Live Upgrade Patch Bundle" on http://sunsolve.sun.com which is designed to make it a little easier for customers to start using Live Upgrade.
To access it, login to SunSolve, go to http://sunsolve.sun.com/show.do?target=patches/patch-access, and in the box under "Recommended Solaris Patch Clusters, J2SE and Java Enterprise System Clusters", scroll down to the "Solaris 10 Live Upgrade Patch Bundle". This patch bundle has all the patches you need to get Live Upgrade up and running. Read the README. You do need a valid service contract to download patch bundles. There's also information on my patch blog, http://blogs.sun.com/patch, and on the Big Admin Patching Hub, http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/patches/overview.jsp, especially the Advanced "How To" articles on http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hubs/documentation/patch/patch-howto.jsp I hope this helps! Best Wishes, Gerry Haskins Director, Software Patch Services -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [sysadmin-discuss] Patch Strategy Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2008 14:44:48 -0700 (PDT) From: Mike Lehman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: sysadmin-discuss@opensolaris.org All, I have been tasked with finding a patch strategy for all Solaris servers. The good majority of these servers are running Solaris 10U2 with non-global zones; roughly totaling 100 servers. Note: These servers were Live Upgraded from Solaris 9. From the research I have done, the Live Upgrade process will not work unless it is running S10U4 (08/07). I am looking for suggestions on how to do this. I am unable to purchase any solution that SUN offers, although I would love to. Has anyone used the LU process or know of another way to accomplish this? Also, has anyone run through the LU process to upgrade S10u2 to S10u4?
