3.6.1 version not able to start after os upgrade

SunMC installs binaries and directories that match the OS it's on: i.e. on my Solaris 10 system I can see:

/opt/SUNWsymon/base/bin/sparc-sun-solaris2.10

/opt/SUNWsymon/base/lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.10

/opt/SUNWsymon/base/sbin/sparc-sun-solaris2.10

So what's happeneing is the scripts are starting... detecting the new OS version... then looking for other files needed in a sparc-sun-solaris[new_version] directory... and since that directory doesn't exist they abort.

A quick hack that will most likely work would be to symlink your old directories to the newer-OS-version names and try to start things again (since binary compatibility usually comes to the rescue). But a better solution would be to reinstall SunMC and have it import your old database and settings.

well installing from the image doesn't work either,

..

netmon# ./es-inst

-

This script installs Sun (TM) Management Center 3.6.1

-

Installation files source directory: /smcdisk/disk1/image/SunOS/sparc

The Solaris OS version when installing Sun Management Center 3.6.1. was :

Your machine is currently running : 2.9

Cannot proceed with current task. Exiting.

Exiting Sun Management Center installation.

Any ideas?
