On SPARC systems, if you install the Oracle Solaris OS on a dual-path FC boot disk, the installation fails with the following errors:
Automated Installation failed Please refer to the /system/volatile/install_log file for details Apr 19 23:12:12 ssra00u23.us.abc.com svc.startd[9]: application/auto-installer:default failed fatally: transitioned to maintenance (see 'svcs -xv' for details)
Workaround: Prior to installing Oracle Solaris, format disks by using the boot net -s command, label the disks, and then proceed with the installation.
