luupgrade of a BE using differential archive - broken?

862195May 16 2011 — edited May 16 2011
Hi,

I am trying to upgrade a boot environment (BE) using a differential flash archive and luupgrade command.

I am using the command option as in the man page (luupgrade -u -n BE_name -j profile_path) => It does not seem to work.

I am using Solaris 10 U5. Below is my usage and the errors encountered. Any help is appreciated.


h4. Attempt #1 : Using install_type flash_update
*# cat /STORE/profile.conf*
install_type flash_update
archive_location local_file /STORE/Diff_02.flar
.
*# luupgrade -u -n solenv2 -s /osmount/10_1009 -j /STORE/profile.conf*
...
ERROR: The first line of file </STORE/profile.conf> is not <install_type upgrade>
ERROR: The file </STORE/profile.conf> can not be used as an upgrade profile.
h4. Attempt #2 : Using install_type upgrade
*# cat /STORE/profile.conf*
install_type upgrade
archive_location local_file /STORE/Diff_02.flar
.
*# luupgrade -u -n solenv2 -s /osmount/10_1009 -j /STORE/profile.conf*
...
ERROR: Field 1 - Keyword "archive_location" is not supported for the specified install_type
h4. Attempt #3 : Without specifying a install_type
*# cat /STORE/profile.conf*
archive_location local_file /STORE/Diff_02.flar
.
*# luupgrade -u -n solenv2 -s /osmount/10_1009 -j /STORE/profile.conf*
...
ERROR: The first line of file </STORE/profile.conf> is not <install_type upgrade>
ERROR: The file </STORE/profile.conf> can not be used as an upgrade profile.
Thanks
Shiv
