Re: OnLineJFS and mk_kernel

 

OnLineJFS and mk_kernel

Good Morning. I'm having a problem installing
OnLineJFS. When I run the swinstall during the
kernel build protion the install suspends because
it says it cannot find /stand/build/vmunix_test.
When I look in that directory it does not exsist.
It does copy vmunix to vmunix.prev but it does not
seem to be compiling the new kernel. Also if I try
just to run mk_kernel it just returns me to the prompt. I have never seen this happen before. Can
someone please help?

Re: OnLineJFS and mk_kernel

Hi Brian

Do you have sufficient room in /stand for another kernel?

If not look like a increase of /stand is required - or copy vmunix.prev to one side (/tmp)and try again.

Re: OnLineJFS and mk_kernel

Hi,

Is there any error in the swagent.log file ?

Re: OnLineJFS and mk_kernel

Hi,

Could you check which make you are using?

execute following series of commands :

1 - type make

2 - ll /usr/bin/make
Where the portion behind ll is the result 'type make"

3 - check the size of the make
which /usr/bin/make is the
link to.

Probably the make is zeroed out and you should restore this from a backup.

Re: OnLineJFS and mk_kernel

It looks like mk_kernel does not create vmunix_test at all.
# ll /usr/bin/make
It should be a symbolic link to /usr/ccs/bin/make and if it is check if /usr/ccs/bin/make exist.
