Solaris 11 and boot enviornments

Customizations
1

We’re using a custom fixlet to patch and SRU on on Solaris 11 (wait sh -c “pkg update”). When this happens, Solaris makes a copy of the current boot environment and then upon reboot, boots to that 2nd boot environment. But we’re seeing the Action Status remain at “Pending Restart”, probably because the actionsite files are missing from the 2nd boot environment??

Steps:

  1. Fixlet executes “pkg update” command
  2. Solaris makes copy of current boot environment (aka boot1) into newalternative boot environment (aka boot2). Included in that new bootenvironment is the BES Client install directory (/var/opt/BESClient).
  3. server Reboots to new boot environment (boot2).
  4. Action Status in BigFix remains at Pending Restart.
