Backing Out With backout_mu

To back out the Solaris 7 MU1 software on a diskless client or AutoClient from a server using backout_mu:

1. Halt the diskless client or AutoClient.

2. On the server, run the backout_mu script located in the local product directory, with the client's root directory as the argument.

   • From a local copy of the MU1 image that corresponds to the client platform, type:

     # cd local_directory # ./backout_mu -R /export/root/client_name

     where client_name is the hostname of the diskless client or AutoClient.

   • From the MU1 CD, mount the CD and type:

     # cd /cdrom/S7_maintenance_update_1_sparc # ./backout_mu -R /export/root/client_name

     where client_name is the hostname of the diskless client or AutoClient.

3. Repeat this process for each diskless client or AutoClient being served.

4. Back out the Solaris 7 MU1 software on the server's service area. From a local copy of the MU1 image that corresponds to the server platform, type:

   # cd local_directory ./backout_mu -S Solaris_2.7

5. Boot the diskless client or AutoClient.
