This is found during s28u6_03 Live Upgrade testing on sparc and intel as follow:

I install the machine with:

OS: Solaris 2.6 5/98 plus the latest recommended patch cluster and bzcat patch
Cluster: SUNWCXall
Locale to install: All European locales
Locale to display: C


Then I install the Live Upgrade package from s28u6_03 2 of 2 CD. I ran Live Upgrade and created the ABE and do the following:
1. Upgrade the ABE to s28u6_03 1 of 2 image. This went fine. However, if you check the /usr/java link at this point, it points to java 1.1 instead of java 1.2 even though SUNWjvrt and SUNWj2rt had been pkgadded:

# cd /a/usr/
# ls -lia java
    307398 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 7 Jun 24 18:53 java -> java1.1
# cd /a/var/sadm/system/logs
# grep SUNWjvrt up*log
Removing package SUNWjvrt:
Removal of <SUNWjvrt> was successful.
Doing pkgadd of SUNWjvrt to /.
Installation of <SUNWjvrt> was successful.
# grep SUNWj2rt up*log
Doing pkgadd of SUNWj2rt to /.
Installation of <SUNWj2rt> was successful.
#

Because of the java link, we have problems running prodreg after we reboot the ABE after installing 2 of 2 and Language CD.

I had to manually switch the link to java1.2 after the upgrade. The SUNWj2rt and SUNWj3rt postinstall script should be looked at.

We had done the following in Live Upgrade and check the /usr/java link after live upgrade:

From OS release to OS release java links
==========================================================
2.6 5/98 s28u6_03 java 1.1 - wrong
2.7 11/99 s28u6_03 java 1.1 - wrong
2.6 5/98 s9_40 j2se - OK
2.7 11/99 s9_40 j2se - OK
S8 s9_40 java 1.2 - wrong

This had to be fixed by S8u6 FCS and S9 Beta Refresh since this impacts live upgrade. This had to be documentated in the release note.

-----------------------------------------------------------

I just ran a Live upgrade on an Ultra 60, going from S8U4 to S9_40, and
when I checked the java link, it was showing 1.2, instead of j2se for s9.

See:

java full version "Solaris_JDK_1.2.2_08"


I updated Mary Ding's table above to reflect the java link problem seen
in S8->S9.

In addition, since the java link was wrong, the following java binary will point to the wrong thing after liveupgrade:

/usr/bin/keytool=../java/bin/keytool s none SUNWj2rt
/usr/bin/policytool=../java/bin/policytool s none SUNWj2rt
/usr/bin/rmid=../java/bin/rmid s none SUNWj2rt
/usr/bin/tnameserv=../java/bin/tnameserv s none SUNWj2rt

# cd /usr/bin
# ls -lia keytool
    137889 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 19 Jun 27 14:06 keytool -> ../java/bin/keytool
# cd ../java/bin
# ls -lia keytool
keytool: No such file or directory
# pwd
/usr/java1.1/bin
#

Besides the various SUNWj2* and SUNWj3 packages, SUNWjv* packages are also impacted too in S8 u6 live upgrade.

Their postinstall scripts also need to be updated.
