When you perform a complete upgrade (that is, all of the software) of the
Solaris 7 11/99 operating environment on a domain, the suninstall utility allows
you to manually enter the disk partition sizes for your file systems. Sun
Microsystems suggests that you do not use disk partitions that are less than the
minimum sizes in

Do this
Select the disk(s) on which the software is to be upgraded. If
you choose a drive other than the one designated as the
bootdrive, a warning message appears later in the installation
process. At that point, you can choose whether to continue, or
not.
Note: For Solaris 7 11/99, you may see a warning stating that the
system needs more disk space. Refer to
information.
Press F4 if file systems are to be mounted from a remote file
server. Press F2 if they are not.
Select manual reboot and press F2 to begin the upgrade. This
step, which installs the software and the patches on the Solaris
release CD, takes many minutes to complete. When the upgrade
is complete, the suninstall utility does not reboot the domain
if you select manual reboot. The Sun Enterprise 10000 host
displays the superuser prompt in the netcon(1M) window.
You are done upgrading the Solaris operating environment. You
can now bring up the domain, as described in "To Bring Up the
Domain After the Upgrade to Solaris 7 11/99" on page 194
.
