Hi Geeks,

Can someone please suggest where the problem is.?The online backup was working fine on Solaris9, the problem only occured when we upgrade this server (Blade2500 w/s) to Solaris10.

Hi Zia-ul-Hassan,

You mentioned you performed an OS upgrade - did you follow the migration guide (http://www.sun.com/software/whitepapers/solaris9/sunmc_datamigration.pdf) when you changed over your Server?

If not, SunMC does have paths under /opt/SUNWsymon with the OS version baked in (i.e. /opt/SUNWsymon/base/lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.9) and if you just copied your Server files to a new OS you likely broke many things :)
