patch dependency challange

Hi.

For a while I've been in contact with Kayo Granillo (@sun.com), though now I can't reach him per E-mail, he helped me with this one, btu I do not have the end solution, he wrote:

- -

Team please open a service ticket for Karoly.

the problem is user can not install patch 118833-17.

The dependency/obsolescence chain

118833 --requires -- 119254

119254 --requires -- 121333

121333 --obsoleted by -- 121133

The user has 121133-02 installed. smpatch will not install

patch 119254 b/c it does not recognize 121333 as obsoleting the requiredpatch

(aka 121333 meets 119254 required patch need).

- -

This patch should fix a panic at boot if the server boots from raid1 with a failed disk with a logging ufs on the root-metadevice.

Unfortunately I'm not sure where to follow the mentioned opened ticket and the bugfix process - any ideas?

The day after you made this post patch 118833-20 was released, as well as 119254-26. Chances are that these patch have solved the dependency problems, even though the readmes still refers to the non existing 121333-xx.

If you have a support contract you could ask Sun Service to trace the ticket, or download the 121333-02 from sunsolve.

7/M.

I tried to install 119254-26, en toute to a 118833-20 install. 119254-26 still insists on 121333-02, in spite of the fact that superceding patch 121133-02 is installed on the system.Message was edited by: ken.nelson
