Displaying the Name of the Active Boot Environment

Use the Current menu or the lucurr command to display the name of the currently running boot environment. If no boot environments are configured on the system, the message “No Boot Environments are defined” is displayed. Note that lucurr reports only the name of the current boot environment, not the boot environment that is active on the next reboot. See Displaying the Status of All Boot Environments to determine a boot environment's status.
