Upgrade using Jumpstart
2007-12-24 20:16:00
I had problem while setting up Jumpstart for
upgrading solaris.
I am trying to upgrade Solaris 2.6 to Solaris 8 using
Jumpstart Server.
I want to resize the partation during the process of
Jumpstart & I had enough empty space on root disk to
do that.
My current config :
c0t0d0s0 / 1GB
c0t0d0s1 swap 2.5 GB
c0t0d0s2
c0t0d0s3 /var 1GB
c0t0d0s4 /opt 1GB
c0t0d0s5 /usr 1GB
New config .
c0t0d0s0 / 1GB
c0t0d0s1 swap 2GB ( resize this partation )
c0t0d0s2
c0t0d0s3 /var 2GB
c0t0d0s4 /opt 2GB
c0t0d0s5 /usr 2GB ( I want to resize this
partation
I have added entries in profile.
install_type upgrade
root_device c0t0d0s2
backup_media local_filesystem /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0
layout_constraint c0t0d0s1 changable 2000
layout_constraint c0t0d0s3 changable 2000
layout_constraint c0t0d0s4 changable 2000
layout_constraint c0t0d0s5 changable 2000
/dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0 --> is another hard disk which has
18 GB as s0 slice created for backup_media.
I have created Jumpstart server & configured client
using add_install_client using al related parameters.
Upgrade Jumpstart goes fine but it didn't resize the
partation.
Is there anyway to find out why is it not resizing
the partation sizes ?
I have not used pfinstall -D to test the profile.
Any suggestions in this regard are highly
appreciated.
Thanks.
