The following sections describe how to prepare both locally administered and remotely administered machines for upgrading.
If you want to use the command line, be aware that some commands and some arguments have been removed or added since SunScreen EFS 1.1 and 2.0. Check the man pages and the SunScreen EFS 3.0 Reference Manual before using.
Before proceeding, verify that all the software packages required for your operating environment are installed.
SunScreen EFS, Release 3.0, runs on Solaris 2.6 and Solaris 7 operating environments for SPARC and x86 platforms. If you are running Solaris 2.5.1, or earlier, you must upgrade your operating environment to at least Solaris 2.6. In addition to the Solaris Core System Support packages, there are additional Solaris packages required prior to installing SunScreen EFS.
Do not reinstall the Core System Support software group if you are upgrading from SunScreen EFS 1.1 or 2.0 to SunScreen EFS 3.0.
Add the following packages to the Screen from your Solaris CD, if not already on your system:
system SUNWdoc Documentation Tools
system SUNWeuluf UTF-8 L10N For Language Environment User Files
system SUNWjvjit Java JIT compiler
system SUNWjvrt JavaVM run time environment
system SUNWlibC SPARCompilers Bundled libC
system SUNWlibms SPARCompilers Bundled shared libm
system SUNWsprot SPARCompilers Bundled tools
system SUNWtoo Programming Tools
system SUNWvolr Volume Management (Root)
system SUNWvolu Volume Management (Usr)
system SUNWxwice ICE components
system SUNWxwplt X Window System platform software
system SUNWxwrtl X Window System & Graphics Runtime Library Links
system SUNWmfrun Motif RunTime Kit
If you are using Solaris 2.6 as your operating environment, add the following patches, if not already on your system, by typing:
For SPARC systems: # cd /cdrom/cdrom0/sparc/Patches # patchadd 106125-06 # patchadd 105181-11 # patchadd 105284-15 # patchadd 105490-04 # patchadd 106040-10 # patchadd 106409-01 For x86 systems: # cd /cdrom/cdrom0/i386/Patches # patchadd 106126-06 # patchadd 105182-13 # patchadd 105285-15 # patchadd 105491-04 # patchadd 106041-10 # patchadd 106410-01 |
These patches must be added in the order given.
Reboot by typing:
# sync; init 6 |
If you will be using a remote administration station, add the following packages to the Administration Station from your Solaris CD, if not already on your system:
system SUNWjvrt JavaVM run time environment
system SUNWmfrun Motif RunTime Kit
system SUNWxwplt X Window System Platform software
If you are using Solaris 2.6 as your operating environment, add the following patches, if not already on your system, by typing:
