    solaris 2.6 to 2.7 upgrade

    Has anyone done a pfinstall dry run before the actual os upgrade? I am trying to find out if our server can be upgradable to 2.7. I created a profile file /tmp/test.conf which contains these parameters: install_type upgrade root_device /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0. /usr/sbin/install.d/pfinstall -D...

    Sun E450 Server LED light

    If I changed the eeprom mfg-options=server while the system is operating, and then just do a reboot of the system, (init 6), will this change take place? Or do I have to reboot the system down to a single user mode, change the parameters, and then do the reset.

    utmp, utmpx, wtmp, wtmpx..... without rebooting system

    For 2.6, I had corrupted files and all I did was make a backup copy of the files and then /dev/null > /var/adm/wtmpx and all the rest of the files without booting the system. Then open up another terminal and sign in. Test the file by using the last command. Hope this helps.

    last command

    I have fixed this problem. I made a backup copy of the /var/adm/wtmp and /var/adm/wtmpx. Then I /dev/null the original files and tested it by signing on to the system. It is now logging correctly.

    last command

    The /var/adm/wtmp is not logging the current logins. the last command shows that it last logged in Feb. What can I do to reactivate this?
