/usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep fails on 11.23
Trying to install an SW filesets which rebuilds the kernel I get the following error
ERROR: The command /usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep", which is used to extract the system file from the kernel, has failed.
Because kernel filesets are selected for installation, this command must be executed by "swinstall" without failures before installation can continue.
Running system_prep outside swinstall give the error
# /usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep
ERROR: Unable to read title of running configuration: KRS error code 2
ERROR: The extraction of a system file from "/stand/vmunix" failed.
Verify that "/stand/vmunix" is a properly built kernel file
before trying again.
/stand/vmunix boots fine and is correctly linked to /stand/current/vmunix
Any help on this topis is welcome

Hi
They changed some stuff on 11.23
What you see indicates that there ae problems with the /stand/current/krs/* file .
You cannot use it
The best solution is to reboot from the previous setup
Reboot
interrupt the boot process
at the HPUX> prompt,then type:
HPUX> boot last_install

Re: /usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep fails on 11.23
Steve,
Problem is that this box was updated from 11.11 to 11.23
kconfig -v only gives
# kconfig -v
Configuration hpux_test
Title
Save Time Fri Mar 11 13:46:04 2005
Modify Time Fri Mar 11 13:46:04 2005
Kernel Path /stand/hpux_test/vmunix
BUT: there is a /stand/current which is exactly a copy /stand/hpux_test and a /stand/vmunix which is hard linkes to /stand/current/vmunix.
I don't know too much about 11.23 and kconfig but I expected kconfig -v to report something like
Configuration current
Title
Save Time Fri Mar 11 13:46:04 2005
Modify Time Fri Mar 11 13:46:04 2005
Kernel Path /stand/current/vmunix
Right ??
