Sun Microsystems manual Reboot Luactivate s10-807+1 init, 105

Version 3.1-enSolaris 10 Container Guide - 3.1 5. Cookbooks Effective: 30/11/2009

The BE is now available e.g. under /.alt.s10-807+1. Next, the boot archive of this BE is updated and the BE is unmounted again.

bootadm update-archive -R /.alt.s10-807+1 luumount s10-807+1

Finally, the new BE can be activated. To run the new BE, the total system must be restarted. It is important that live upgrade performs a final synchronization when turning the current BE off. It is therefore critical that the command init 6 is used (under no circumstances the command

reboot).

luactivate s10-807+1 init 6

When the new BE starts up for the first time, the global zone, as well as the "old" and the "new" zones, are synchronized according to /etc/lu/synclist. To do so, live upgrade needs access to the "old" and the "new" zones when starting the new BE up for the first time.It must be ensured that the shared file systems are also mounted automatically in the new BE when booted. This is required for the proper completion of live upgrade.

Now, the patching of zones with live upgrade is completed and all zones are operational.
