lumake(1M)		System Administration Commands		    lumake(1M)

NAME
       lumake - populate a boot environment

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/lumake [-l error_log] [-o outfile] [-s source_BE] -n BE_name
	    [-X] [-P]

       /usr/sbin/lumake [-l error_log] -t time [-o outfile]
	    [-s source_BE] -n BE_name [-m email_address] [-X] [-P]

DESCRIPTION
       The lumake 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  lumake  command populates (that is, copies files to) the file sys‐
       tems of a specified boot environment (BE) by  copying  files  from  the
       corresponding  file  systems  of	 the  active  or a source (-s) BE. Any
       existing data on the target BE are destroyed. All file systems  on  the
       target BE are re-created.

       The target BE must already exist. Use lucreate(1M) to create a new BE.

       The lumake command requires root privileges.

OPTIONS
       The lumake command has the following options:

       -n BE_name

	   Name of the BE to be populated.

       -s source_BE

	   The	optional  name of a source BE. If you omit this option, lumake
	   uses the current BE as the source. A BE must have the status	 "com‐
	   plete" before you can copy from it. Use lustatus(1M) to determine a
	   BE's status.

       -l error_log

	   Error and status messages are sent to  error_log,  in  addition  to
	   where they are sent in your current environment.

       -o outfile

	   All	command	 output is sent to outfile, in addition to where it is
	   sent in your current environment.

       -t time

	   Setup a batch job to populate the specified BE at a specified time.
	   The time is given in the format specified by the at(1) man page. At
	   any time, you can have only one Live Upgrade	 operation  scheduled.
	   You can use lucancel(1M) to cancel a scheduled lumake operation.

       -m email_address

	   Allows  you to email lumake output to a specified address upon com‐
	   mand completion. There is no checking of  email_address.  Use  this
	   option in conjunction with -t, to obtain notification of batch com‐
	   mand completion. If you use -m  with	 options  other	 than  -t,  no
	   email is sent.

       -X

	   Enable  XML	output.	 Characteristics of XML are defined in DTD, in
	   /usr/share/lib/xml/dtd/lu_cli.dtd.<num>, where <num> is the version
	   number of the DTD file.

       -P

	   Preserves the dump device from PBE to ABE.

EXIT STATUS
       The following exit values are returned:

       0

	   Successful completion.

       >0

	   An error occurred.

FILES
       /etc/lutab

	   list of BEs on the system

       /usr/share/lib/xml/dtd/lu_cli.dtd.<num>

	   Live Upgrade DTD (see -X option)
