The first machine upgraded from oi_151a7 to oi_151a8 with no problems. The command I used was: pkg image-update --be-name oi_151a8 . It updated 879 packages into a new BE. It looked good when I rebooted into that BE.
The second gave me trouble. I used the same command, but it only updated 37 packages. When I rebooted into the new BE, the kernel version was still oi_151a7 . I rebooted back to the old BE and destroyed the new one. In October, I had upgraded this second machine from oi_151a5 to oi_151a7, with no problems. It updated 947 packages that time. I did notice that the package `entire' was missing on the second machine, although it was present on the first one. I had been upgrading this second machine periodically, starting with opensolaris-126 . I suppose I must have removed `entire' somewhere along the way. Perhaps that was the cause of the problem, but why did the upgrade to oi_151a7 succeed? I tried adding the correct version of `entire' for oi_151a7, in a new BE, but `pkg image-update -n' still told me it would update only 37 packages. What could be preventing this upgrade from working? What should I do next? -- -Gary Mills- -refurb- -Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada- _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
