40About Veritas Storage Foundation and High Availability SolutionsKnown issuesProcessing profileERROR: This slice can't be upgraded because of missing usr packages forthe following zones:ERROR: zone1ERROR: zone1ERROR: This slice cannot be upgraded because of missing usr packages forone or more zones.The Solaris upgrade of the boot environment failed.This is a known issue with the Solaris luupgrade command.Workaround: Check with Oracle for possible workarounds for this issue.Live Upgrade to 6.0.1 on Solaris 10 with dmp_native_supportenabled fails (2632422)During Live Upgrade to 6.0.1 on Solaris 10, the vxlustart command fails ifdmp_native_support is enabled. Veritas Dynamic Multi-Pathing (DMP) supportfor native devices requires that the naming scheme be set to enclosure-basednaming (EBN). DMP 6.0.1 does not allow changing the naming scheme from EBNwhen support for native devices is enabled.Due to a bug in DMP 5.1 Service Pack 1 (5.1SP1), the naming scheme could be setto operating-system based naming (OSN). However, this is not a supportedconfiguration. With the naming scheme set to OSN, the vxlustart command fails.Workaround: Disable dmp_native_support on all nodes.On Solaris 10, a flash archive installed through JumpStart maycause a new system to go into maintenance mode on reboot(2379123)If a Flash archive is created on a golden host with encapsulated root disks, whenthis Flash archive is installed onto another host through JumpStart, the newsystem may go to maintenance mode when you initially reboot it.This problem is caused by the predefined root disk mirror in the Flash archive.When the archive is applied to a clone system, which may have different harddrives, the newly cloned system may get stuck at root disk mirroring during reboot.Workaround: Create the Flash archive on a golden host with no encapsulatedroot disks. Run vxunroot to clean up the mirrored root disks before you createthe Flash archive.
