Last Post we saw how to configure local repository on Solaris 11 server. In this post we will see the brief of New IPS features and troubleshoot methods, Installing and uninstalling the packages, checking the packages contents and package dependencies and package manifest basics and understanding the packages components.
- Administrators can suggest whether we required Oracle repository or Local repository depends on environment requirements.
- Oracle Solaris 11 installations will come up with default publisher http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release which supplies all packages from the oracle release repository.
- Administrators can install new software packages, search the content of package or mirror the contents of that repository locally.
- Oracle Solaris 11 having many IPS pkg command which query the system with using option "list, info, content, search, history can be performed by users.
Basics of Packages FMRI:
below output you can understand the brief about the structure of package FMRI (Fault Managed Resources Identifier).
