Build 11.23 client from 11.11 ignite server

[Philip Dunn_1]

Hi to all,
We're trying to build 11.23 machines, from an 11.11 ignite source server.
After booting the client machine using bootsys -R B.11.23 -c it is booting up and getting to the ignite menu, however after inputing the ip details and trying to start ignite we get...

* Loading configuration user interface, please wait...
WARNING: f_unzip: input not a zip or gzip file
ERROR: read_raw_file: Input not in "gzip" compressed format
ERROR: Tar: blocksize = 0; broken pipe?
ERROR: File: /usr/ccs not found.
ERROR: File: /usr/obam not found.

ERROR: File: /opt/ignite/bin not found.
ERROR: File: /opt/ignite/ui not found.
ERROR: File: /opt/ignite/help not found.
loadfile command failed, retry? ([y]/n):

Has anyone come across this before or can offer any advice it would be greatly appriciated.

Many thanks

Phil

Hi Phil,

Could you explain the ignite source server means. Is it for a golden image or is it from a backup (make_net_recovery)

regards,
Sandy

I've created an 11.23 image using make_sys_image and have it hosted on an 11.11 ignite server. I think I've changed all the various configs on the ignite server, e.g. /var/opt/ignite/INDEX etc to point to Rel.B.11.23 but when booting it is coming up with the above error.

Hi Phil,

Can you attach:
- var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.23/core_archive_cfg
- /var/opt/INDEX
- /etc/bootptab

regards,
Sandy

As requested...

Can't upload more than one file.

/etc/bootptab has nothing of relevence in

Hi Phil,

The settings is all correct to me, slight different with my config, on the init sw_sel stanza
impacts = "/var" 2465578Kb
} = (TRUE)

but I think should be ok.

if you tried /opt/ignite/bin/instl_adm -T , is there any error message?

I've once got error message like this for wrong archive path

regards,
Sandy

I assume no errors mean ok?...
