Oracle Solaris 11 Advanced System Administrator — Question 23

When upgrading an existing system from Solaris 11 Express to Oracle Solaris 11, what happens to the datalink names?

Answer options

• A. They follow the default naming convention for the newly installed version.
• B. They maintain their names.
• C. They are called eth#.
• D. They are called el00g#.
• E. They are left unnamed, to avoid conflicts, and need to be renamed after the installation process is complete.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because during the upgrade, the datalink names are updated to align with the default naming convention of the new version. Option B is incorrect as the names do not retain their original form; options C and D are also incorrect as they refer to outdated naming conventions, and option E does not apply since the datalink names are not left unnamed.
