Upgrade the server with RNCS software using Solaris’ Live Upgrade. Live Upgrade 
is a Solaris facility that allows operating system or application upgrades in an 
inactive boot environment while the active boot environment continues to run 
without interruption. Therefore, do not shut down the DNCS, RNCS, or Application 
Server processes unless you are instructed to do so. 

Important: If you are installing RNCS software on a Sun Fire server for the first time, 
go to Initial Installation of RNCS Software. 

 

Complete the following steps to upgrade the RNCS software. 
1  Complete the following steps to remotely log on to the ALOM port of the RNCS 

server. 
a  From the DNCS, type telnet  [IP address of ALOM port] and press Enter. A 

prompt for the user ID appears. 

Note: Substitute the IP address of the ALOM port for [IP address of ALOM 
port]. Do not type the brackets [ ] in the command. 

b  Type the admin user ID and press Enter. A prompt for the password appears. 
c  Type the password for the admin user and press Enter. The SC > prompt 

appears as the system establishes a telnet session between the DNCS and the 
ALOM port. 

 

2  Type console  -f and press Enter. The following message appears: 

Warning: Usr <> currently has write permissions to this console and forcibly 
removing them will terminate any current write actions and all work will be 
lost. Would you like to continue?
