Update OmniOS

How to update to current OmniOS:
http://www.napp-it.org/doc/downloads/setup napp-it os.pdf

OmniOS 151028 comes with a newer Perl and a different SSH/sudo handling.
Without an update to a recent napp-it Free/Pro/Dev release in About > Update,
you get errors about io.tty or permission errors

Sudo/Permission problems in napp-it
If you first update napp-it, then OmniOS, napp-it cares about

If you missed to update napp-it first:
- go back to former BE, update napp-it and then OmniOS or
- set a napp-it pw via passwd napp-it and optionally check and delete the napp-it line in /etc/user_attr

There are some reports of problems around SSH/SSL

On a clean install of OmniOS 151028 SSH and ex SSL/TLS work as expected.
But I have seen several problems on updates (depends on first version in the update chain)
as 151028 finalized the move from Sun SSH to OpenSSH.

What you can try on SSH problems
- update to newest napp-it free/pro/dev. In menu Services > SSH you can update SSH settings to OpenSSH defaults
- check SSH settings, see Deprecating SunSSH Options
- deinstall and reinstall SSH

Maybe the fastest way is (around 30 minutes, no trouble seeking is as fast)
install 151028 from scratch and import the datapool
you must save/restore /var/web-gui/_log and users with same uid to keep napp-it and basic settings
(napp-it Pro: run a backup job that saves this to the datapool, restore via Users > Resore)

TLS Problems after an update to OmniOS 151028
TLS is not working and the re-installation of TLS/SSL fails:
workaround: install 151028 from scratch, import datapools and restore /var/web-gui/_log/* and users with same uid

Updates prior 151028

Prior an update you should check number of bootenvironments.
You should delete some bootenvironments if number is > 30

Update of OmniiOS is always done in three steps
- dismount old omnios repository
- mount new omnios repository
- pkg update

A BE/ Bootenvironment is always created for the OS state prior the update.
After the update you can boot into the new OS release or select the former state/BE during bootup.

Easiest way for an update:
- allow SSH root access (Services > SSH)
- connect as root via Putty (Windows app)
- copy/past the commands into the Putty Window (without the # at the beginning of a command) with a mouse right-click

Update from OmniOS-CE 151026 to 151028

https://github.com/omniosorg/omnios-build/blob/r151028/doc/ReleaseNotes.md

pkg update; reboot; (optionally update old system to newest)
pkg unset-publisher omnios
pkg set-publisher -g https://pkg.omniosce.org/r151028/core omnios
pkg update
reboot

OmniOS 151028 comes with a newer Perl and SSH/sudo handling
After an update, you may get permission or io.tty errors.
To avoid these problems, update napp-it Free/Pro/Dev to newest prior an OmniOS update.
Please set a password for root and napp-it now (only on permission error messages in 151028)!
passwd root and optionally passwd napp-it
