Description: SunSolve doc. 250526: This article describes the process for using Solaris Live Upgrade to upgrade from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10 05/08 or later releases. The Solaris 10 05/08 release media (and subsequent Updates) were compressed using a different utility than previous Solaris 10 releases, which all used bzip2 compression. To upgrade to Solaris 05/08 (or later Solaris releases) using Solaris LU, the live system (on which luupgrade is actually running), must have p7zip installed. p7zip was backported to Solaris 9 in patch format, but for Solaris 8 there is no similar patch available.
