DNS Bind 8.1.2 upgrade to 8.2.5

[Kasman]

Hi,

I got some problem in upgrading from BIND 8.1.2 to 8.2.5. I have installed 2 patches (QPK1100_11.00.depot and PHSS_26138.depot) in the system before removing BIND 8.1.2

Then I use the swremove to remove BIND 8.1.2 and it worked fine.

After that I proceed to use the swinstall to install BIND 8.2.5 but I got the following error messages when using swinstall command :

A Remote Procedure Call to a daemon has failed. Could not start a management session for "dns1:/tmp/Bind825-REL.depot". Make sure the host is accessible from the network, and that its daemon, swagentd is running.

I am sure the swagentd is running (in the process table) and I even restart the swagentd

Thanks

Hi,
IS the rpcd daemon running in the host.
#ps -ef | grep rpcd
If no
#rpcd
if yes , try restarting rpcd

Hi,

I have restarted rpcd and this time there are different error messages, anyway I have restarted the swagentd and I managed to install it.

Thanks for your help.
