Upgrading From Solaris Resource Manager 1.0

If you are currently running Solaris Resource Manager 1.0 on Solaris 2.6 SPARC Platform Edition and want to upgrade to Solaris Resource Manager 1.3 on Solaris 8 SPARC Platform Edition or Solaris 7 SPARC Platform Edition, follow the instructions in this section.

The lnode database for Solaris Resource Manager 1.0 is not compatible with the current Solaris Resource Manager lnode database. To upgrade, you must convert the database using the following script, which should be created with the name savelnodes.

#!/bin/sh
/usr/srm/bin/limreport 'flag.real' - lname preserve | \
sed 's/,/:/g' | sed 's/services.flag.xterm=.*://g' | sed 's/umask=[0-9]*://g'

To upgrade a Solaris 2.6 system running Solaris Resource Manager 1.0:

1. Execute the savelnodes script:

   # savelnodes > /export/home/savelnodes.out

2. Remove the lnode database:

   # rm /var/srm/srmDB

3. Remove Solaris Resource Manager 1.0 from your system.

   See Chapter 3, Removing Solaris Resource Manager.

4. Upgrade Solaris 2.6 to Solaris 8.

   For instructions, see the Solaris 8 Installation Collection.

5. Install Solaris Resource Manager 1.3.

   Go to the beginning of this chapter.

6. Execute the limadm command to restore the lnodes:

   # /usr/srm/sbin/limadm set -f /export/home/savelnodes.out
