Solaris Live Upgrade not working with EMC SAN
Hi, I am trying to setup a Solaris Live Upgrade environment of a SF6800 domain. The domain has local disks and is also connected to an EMC SAN. At present, lucreate is failing with the following message:
INFORMATION: Unable to determine size or capacity of slice </dev/emc/dsk/sf68avg/bc1d99>
bc1d99 is the file system on the EMC SAN.
lucreate worked fine of a SF6800 domain with internal disks only.
Has anyone had problems or success in creating a Solaris Live Upgrade environment in which your server was connected to an EMC SAN?
Thanks in advance,
Stewart

Hi,
I have the same problem with an attached A5200 with mirrored disks (Solaris 9, Volume Manager). Whereas the "critical" partitions should be copied to a second system disk, the mirrored partitions should be shared.
Here is a script with lucreate.
#!/bin/sh
Logdir=/usr/local/LUscripts/logs
if [ ! -d ${Logdir} ]
then
echo ${Logdir} existiert nicht
exit
fi
/usr/sbin/lucreate \
-l ${Logdir}/$0.log \
-o ${Logdir}/$0.error \
-m /:/dev/dsk/c2t0d0s0:ufs \
-m /var:/dev/dsk/c2t0d0s3:ufs \
-m /opt:/dev/dsk/c2t0d0s4:ufs \
-m -:/dev/dsk/c2t0d0s1:swap \
-n disk0
And here is the output
