thanks

Dan

Hello Dan,

Please can I ask if you have any zones installed on your systems?

There is a known compatability issue where Sun Update only provides partial support for systems that have non-global zones installed.

This problem will hopefully be addressed in the next release of Sun Update Connection planned for February

We have handled support cases which gave the same error output, where there were non-global zones installed.

For more information regarding Sun Update Connection and zones, please refer to the FAQ for this product:

http://www.sun.com/service/sunupdate/faq.html

If this does provide a resolution to your issue you may wish to log a support case to the Sun Update Connection team:

sun_update_support@sun.com

Regards

Have you applied the latest certificate patch as per the alert in the orange box on the front page of the Update Connection portal - https://sunconnection.sun.com

I have this annoying problem too. Surely someone must know what causes it and how to fix it.What the heck is CNS transport anyway? I get more log messages from it having problems than anything else on my systems.

The solution was to upgrade the transport certificate as suggested in the previous post. The certificates used by Sun Update Connection had been updated in February to ensure continued security of communication channels. You will need to apply a special software update to upgrade your certificate on the systems. The specific patch IDs are:

122231-01 (Solaris SPARC) - http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-122231-01-1

122232-01 (Solaris x86/x64) - http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-122232-01-1

After February 23 you can use the following command *on your managed systems*

to install the appropriate patch to enable management at the Sun Update Connection

application:

smpatch update -i 122231-01 (for SPARC clients)

smpatch update -i 122232-01 (for x86 clients)

There could also be other reasons that could cause you to get those errors. Your system may be unable to communicate with the internet, or your HTTP proxy, and as a result it would not be able to send any messages to the Sun UC portal, hence the error messages. If you have the appropriate certificate patch already installed and you still see the errors then to check connectivity run the following command:

$ /usr/lib/cc-cfw/platform/transport/bin/cctrunner -p

This should give an indicator as to why the system is not able to send messages.

The CNS transport messages are logged by the cctransport process. This process establishes a secure transport pipe with Sun UC so that the system can communicate securely with the https://updates.sun.com portal.
