OS Profile Components Not Updated Properly After Upgrading the OS Provisioning Plug-In (6392983)

Description: If you recreate OS profile components after you upgrade to the OS Provisioning Plug-In 3.0, the component might include variable settings that are no longer included in the current plug-in version. The component variables are not properly updated after you recreate the component, and provisioning plans that reference this component might fail. An error that is similar to the following message is displayed.

The plan (or preflight) "/system/autogen/Solaris9_7_
sparc.standard-inst-provision_start-1141144282798" finished 
with 1 failed host(s). (017034)

Unable to find accessible variable in component referenced by 
substitution variable :[container:sysidcfg_network_interface_base_]. (04011

In the previous example, the plan fails because the OS Provisioning Plug-In 3.0 does not include the sysidcfg_network_interface_base_config_ variable in the Solaris OS profile component.

Workaround: Choose one of the following workarounds.

• After you upgrade the OS Provisioning Plug-In, create a new OS profile component, rather than recreating the previous profile.

• Delete the previous OS profile component and create a new OS profile with the valid variable settings.

• Remove values for the deprecated variables from the old OS profile component.
