I am experiancing an odd problem when performing a jumpstart flash install. I
have created multiple images from a 4500 and am attempting a restore onto an
E6800 domain. While I have done this exact same procedure in the past, I am
now experiancing a problem after the flash images have been restored onto the
target system.
At the end of the last flash image installation the system attempts to
unconfigure itself, but I recieve "ERROR: Unable to unconfigure the extracted
system" and "ERROR: System installation failed"
There are 4 total flash images being restored by the profile for this machine,
the largest of which is ~ 1.6GB so I should not be encountering the 4GB
problem (This is Solaris 8), unless the 4GB problem applies to the total size
of the uncompressed image?
The flash images were created from a list of files generated with the
following commands:
find / ! -name /tmp/chad/images/newton ! -type D ! -type s -print \( ! -mount
-o -fstype lofs \) -prune > /tmp/chad/images/newton/root_flar.files
find /usr ! -type D ! -type s -print \( ! -mount -o -fstype lofs \) -prune >
/tmp/chad/images/newton/usr_flar.files
find /var ! -type D ! -type s -print \( ! -mount -o -fstype lofs \) -prune >
/tmp/chad/images/newton/var_flar.files
find /opt ! -type D ! -type s -print \( ! -mount -o -fstype lofs \) -prune >
/tmp/chad/images/newton/opt_flar.files
The flash images were generated with:
flarcreate -n newton_var -S -H -c -f ./var_flar.files -F ./var.flar.img
Has anyone experianced this same issue? If so any suggestions or solutions
would be greatly appreciated.
