x86: To Fall Back Despite Successful New Boot Environment Activation

• Starting with the Solaris 10 1/06 release, do not use this procedure. See x86: To Fall Back Despite Successful New Boot Environment Activation With the GRUB Menu.

• For the Solaris 10 3/05 release, use this procedure when you have successfully activated your new boot environment, but are dissatisfied with the results.

Steps

1. Become superuser or assume an equivalent role.

   Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Configuring RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services.

2. Type:

   # /sbin/luactivate BE_name

   BE_name

   Specifies the name of the boot environment to be activated

3. Reboot.

   # init 6

   The previous working boot environment becomes the active boot environment.
