FIRST Solaris Image !

Post by davidra »

Hi

I've just installed VirtualBox 4.2.6 on an ML 370 using Centos 6.3. The install went all OK but now I want to create a virtual image of our solaris system so we can keep the information for posterity

The solaris system is a sparc system using solaris 5.9 with an Oracle database on it. This V880 has a 3310 array attached

I've tried to create an iso image using the mkisofs command but I don't think this was the correct tool to use. I've done some further research and some people say crating a sparc image is not possible

What's the best way to proceed allowing me to create a virtual image of my sparc server ?

Thanks in advance

David

They are right.

Definitely not VirtualBox.
