Hello, I am trying to find some recent information about Live Upgrade and Zones with zonepath on ZFS. Is it supported now ?
As I could not find enough info, I decided to experiment with VMware. I am currently testing with snv_95 with ZFS root. My zone 'test' zonepath is /zones/test (dataset rpool/zones/test) I am trying to upgrade to snv_97. lucreate -c snv_95 -n snv_97 succeeds. (It creates a clone of rpool/zones/test) If my zone is running , luupgrade -u -n snv_97 -s /mnt/cdrom fails with: Creating upgrade profile for BE <snv_97>. ERROR: unable to mount zones: cannot mount '/zones/test': directory is not empty rpool/ROOT/snv_95 - / zfs - no /devices - /devices devfs - no /dev - /dev dev - no ctfs - /system/contract ctfs - no proc - /proc proc - no mnttab - /etc/mnttab mntfs - no swap - /etc/svc/volatile tmpfs - no xattr objfs - /system/object objfs - no sharefs - /etc/dfs/sharetab sharefs - no /usr/lib/libc/libc_hwcap1.so.1 - /lib/libc.so.1 lofs - no fd - /dev/fd fd - no rw swap - /tmp tmpfs - no xattr swap - /var/run tmpfs - no xattr rpool/export - /export zfs - no rw,devices,setuid,nonbmand,exec,xattr,atime rpool/export/home - /export/home zfs - no rw,devices,setuid,nonbmand,exec,xattr,atime rpool - /rpool zfs - no rw,devices,setuid,nonbmand,exec,xattr,atime rpool/zones - /zones zfs - no rw,devices,setuid,nonbmand,exec,xattr,atime rpool/zones/test - /zones/test zfs - no rw,devices,setuid,nonbmand,exec,xattr,atime /dev - /zones/test/root/dev dev - no /lib - /zones/test/root/lib lofs - no ro,nodevices,nosub /platform - /zones/test/root/platform lofs - no ro,nodevices,nosub /sbin - /zones/test/root/sbin lofs - no ro,nodevices,nosub /usr - /zones/test/root/usr lofs - no ro,nodevices,nosub proc - /zones/test/root/proc proc - no nodevices,zone=test ctfs - /zones/test/root/system/contract ctfs - no nodevices,zone=test mnttab - /zones/test/root/etc/mnttab mntfs - no nodevices,zone=test objfs - /zones/test/root/system/object objfs - no nodevices,zone=test swap - /zones/test/root/etc/svc/volatile tmpfs - no nodevices,xattr,zone=test /zones/test/root/usr/lib/libc/libc_hwcap1.so.1 - /zones/test/root/lib/libc.so.1 lofs - no zone=test fd - /zones/test/root/dev/fd fd - no rw,nodevices,zone=test swap - /zones/test/root/tmp tmpfs - no nodevices,xattr,zone=test swap - /zones/test/root/var/run tmpfs - no nodevices,xattr,zone=test /dev/dsk/c1t0d0p0 - /mnt/cdrom hsfs - no ro,noglobal,maplcase,rr,traildot /dev/lofi/1 - /mnt/cdrom/Solaris_11/Tools/Boot ufs - no rw,intr,largefiles,logging,xattr,onerror=panic /tmp/javaui.cpio.bz2.1902/usr/lib/install/data/wizards - /mnt/cdrom/Solaris_11/Tools/Boot/usr/lib/install/data/wizards lofs - no rpool/ROOT/snv_97 - /a zfs - no rw,devices,setuid,nonbmand,exec,xattr,atime /export - /a/export lofs - no ro,nodevices,nosub /export/home - /a/export/home lofs - no ro,nodevices,nosub /rpool - /a/rpool lofs - no ro,nodevices,nosub /zones - /a/zones lofs - no ro,nodevices,nosub swap - /a/var/run tmpfs - no xattr swap - /a/tmp tmpfs - no xattr zone 'test': zone root /zones/test/root already in use by zone test zoneadm: zone 'test': call to zoneadmd failed ERROR: unable to mount zone <test> in </a> ERROR: unmounting partially mounted boot environment file systems ERROR: cannot mount boot environment by icf file </tmp/.luupgrade.beicf.1902> cat: cannot open /tmp/.luupgrade.tmp.1902: No such file or directory ERROR: Unable to mount ABE disk slices: < >. ERROR: Unable to mount the BE <snv_97>. If the zone is not running, luupgrade succeeds by I get a lot of : zlogin: Could not chdir to home directory /root: No such file or directory in the update_log luactivate snv_97 succeeds. Reboot's fine, it boots into the new snv_97 environement but the zone does not seem to be updated: /etc/release still indicates snv_95. By the way, if I boot into the old BE (selecting snv_95) in GRUB, it cannot mount /export because on the root fs, a directory home already exists in /export: (cannot mount '/export': directory is not empty) but /export/home is mounted. If I create a rpool/ROOT/snv_95/zones dataset. when I install my zone, it does not create a dataset for my zone, BUT live upgrade works properly (/etc/release in zone properly updated). However, live upgrade has created a rpool/ROOT/snv_97/zoneds and rpool/ROOT/snv_97/zoneds/test datasets. I am a bit lost. I need my zones to have their zonepath on their own dataset (cloning heavily used). Should abandon the idea of using live upgrade ? Live upgrade source code is still closed, isn't it? (otherwise I could have looked at the source for documentation) Thanks for any help, Vincent
