System Administration Commandslurename(1M)


NAME

 lurename - change the name of a boot environment

SYNOPSIS

 /usr/sbin/lurename -e BE_name -n new_name [-l error_log] [-o outfile] [-X]

DESCRIPTION

 

The lurename command is part of a suite of commands that make up the Live Upgrade feature of the Solaris operating environment. See live_upgrade(5) for a description of the Live Upgrade feature.

The lurename command renames the boot environment (BE) BE_name to new_name.

The string new_name must not exceed 30 characters in length and must consist only of alphanumeric characters and other ASCII characters that are not special to the Unix shell. See the "Quoting" section of sh(1). The BE name can contain only single-byte, 8-bit characters. It cannot contain whitespace characters. Also, new_name must be unique on the system.

A BE must have the status "complete" before you rename it. Use lustatus(1M) to determine a BE's status. Also, you cannot rename a BE that has file systems mounted with lumount(1M) or mount(1M).

Renaming a BE is often useful when you upgrade the BE from one Solaris release to another. For example, following an operating system upgrade, you might rename the BE solaris7 to solaris8.

The lurename command requires root privileges.
