#Now new disk is ready for creating new boot environment
#Now we need to patch the Solaris 9 server before installing live upgrade packages from Solaris 10(to which the operating environment is going to be upgraded)
#If you ignore patching, you can still create the new BE using lucreate command successfully. But you can’t upgrade the inactive BE to Solaris 10 as we desire. While upgrading using luupgrade command, we’ll encounter patching errors which will prevent us from proceeding further. I verified this fact practically already. Hence it is strongly recommended to patch the running OS (as suggested by “http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-61-206844-1“)

**********************************************************************
The target boot environment has been activated. It will be used when you
reboot. NOTE: You MUST NOT USE the reboot, halt, or uadmin commands. You
MUST USE either the init or the shutdown command when you reboot. If you
do not use either init or shutdown, the system will not boot using the
target BE.
**********************************************************************
In case of a failure while booting to the target BE, the following process
needs to be followed to fallback to the currently working boot environment:
1. Boot from the Solaris failsafe or boot in Single User mode from Solaris
Install CD or Network.
2. Mount the Parent boot environment root slice to some directory (like
/mnt). You can use the following command to mount:
mount -Fufs /dev/dsk/c0d0s0 /mnt
3. Run
environment root slice, as shown below:
/mnt/sbin/luactivate
4. luactivate, activates the previous working boot environment and
indicates the result.
5. Exit Single User mode and reboot the machine.

###That’s All!!! Live Upgrade is a nice & pretty straight-forward feature which is quite beneficial for production environments where less downtime is desirable. We now have two boot environments & if we wish,we can remove the older one once we’re sure that the new BE becomes stable & performing well without any issues.
Note:
====
1. If We receive the error messages starting with “This system contains only a single GRUB menu for all boot environments…” while executing luupgrade, We can use the following solution to fix that to proceed further.
bash-2.05# luupgrade -u -n sol10 -s /solaris10iso/
This system contains only a single GRUB menu for all boot environments. To
enhance reliability and improve the user experience, live upgrade requires
you to run a one time conversion script to migrate the system to multiple
redundant GRUB menus. This is a one time procedure and you will not be
required to run this script on subsequent invocations of Live Upgrade
commands. To run this script invoke:
/usr/lib/lu/lux86menu_propagate /path/to/new/Solaris/install/image OR
/path/to/LiveUpgrade/patch
where /path/to/new/Solaris/install/image is an absolute
path to the Solaris media or netinstall image from which you installed the
Live Upgrade packages and /path/to/LiveUpgrade/patch is an absolute path
to the Live Upgrade patch from which this Live Upgrade script was patched
into the system.
##Here we encountered an error, this is related to creating multiple GRUB menus to reflect both the BEs. To fix this, issue the commands as suggested by the error output
bash-2.05# /usr/lib/lu/lux86menu_propagate /solaris10iso/

2. If your live upgrade gets failed at the end of execution of luupgrade command, it would have been mostly due to space constraint on the disk on which ABE is created. You can mount the disk in a temporary mount point & check the disk utilization. If it is 100% full, this is the reason for the failure. In such a case, We would have to delete the ABE using ludelete and re-format the disk and start the live upgrade process all over again from scratch!!!.The following is an example for such failure,
