Non-global zone not in a patchable state

UNIX Solaris
1

Hi

I am trying to install the latest patch cluster on a Solaris 10 box in single-user mode. However when I run the ./installcluster command I get the following error:

All our zones have been working fine as far as we know as they are all serving live websites.

Does anyone have any ideas about what to do before I raise a call with Sun support?

Thanks

Steve.

Did you bring down the zone to be patched to the single user mode?
whats the output of zoneadm list -cv ? whats the name of the zone you trying to patch?

Thanks Inceredible, that displayed 4 unistalled but not deleted zones and 1 incomplete zone.

I always use 'zoneadm list -vi' - perhaps a good read of the man pages...:slight_smile:

I deleted the unnecessary zones and the patch installed just fine.

Steve.
