/var/adm/sw/sw*.log files.

Example:

# export SDU_DEBUG=1

# export SDU_DEBUG_TIMESTAMP=hour:minute:second:millisecond

# script -a /tmp/SDdebug.out

Perform SD-UX command.

# exit

# unset SDU_DEBUG

# unset SDU_DEBUG_TIMESTAMP

Analyze /tmp/SDdebug.out.

The variable SDU_DEBUG can have a value between 1 and 4:

Level 1: Trace entry to major function calls.

Level 2: Add trace of exit from major function calls.

Level 3: Add trace of some internals or variables in major function calls.

Level 4: Add tracing in functions that are called frequently.

Please remember that the SDU_DEBUG variables are neither officially supported nor documented,

and their behavior may change without notice.

swinstall in Single User Mode

swinstall needs the Core networking functionality. So it won´t work in single user mode.

of all, try to bring up minimum networking functionality after booting into single user mode:

# init 1

# /sbin/init.d/net start

# /sbin/init.d/swagentd start

# /sbin/init.d/swconfig start

Now, try to swinstall. If it is still impossible, you may try the following unsupported procedure

in single user mode:

dlpi and lan0 drivers must be in the kernel. Then backup the following files:

# cp /etc/hosts /etc/hosts.org

# mv /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.org (move!)
