Sun Cluster 3.0 12/01 Release Notes

BugId 4505391

Problem Summary: When you upgrade the Sun Cluster software from Sun Cluster 2.2 to Sun Cluster 3.0 12/01 using the scinstall -u begin -F command, the scinstall command fails to remove patches with dependencies and aborts with the following messages:


scinstall:  Failed to remove patch-id.rev
scinstall:  scinstall did NOT complete successfully!

A patch dependency is the cause of this failure.

Workaround: Manually back out the patch dependencies, then restart the upgrade process. Use the log file to identify the patch dependencies that caused the script to fail. Use can also use the showrev command to identify patch dependencies.


showrev -p | grep patch-id
