Environment |
Procedure |

Solaris native zones |
Perform Live Upgrade to upgrade both global and local zones. If you have a zone root that resides on a VxVM volume, use the following procedure. See Performing Live Upgrade in a Solaris zone environment. |
Solaris branded zones (BrandZ) |
Perform Live Upgrade to upgrade the global zone. See Upgrading SFCFS and Solaris using Live Upgrade. Manually upgrade the branded zone separately. Note that while you can perform a Live Upgrade in the presence of branded zones, the branded zones are not upgraded. |
Logical domains (LDOM) |
Perform Live Upgrade on the Domain controller only. Perform Live Upgrade on the Guest domain only. Use the standard Live Upgrade procedure for both types of LDOMs. |
