Sun Studio Troubleshooting

1. Download the uninstaller workaround script file from the Sun Download Center and unpack the file.
   
   download_directory/
    sunstudio12u1_uninstaller
    .bash.tar.bz2
    | bin/tar -xf -
   
   
2. Become root.


3. Start the script by typing:

   ./sunstudio12u1_uninstaller.bash
   

   If the Sun Studio software you want to uninstall was installed in an alternate root location, start the script with the -R option to specify the alternate root directory.

The script analyzes your system and locates all complete or partial installations of Sun Studio 12 Update 1 software. For example, it might tell you that it has found the software in /opt/sunstudio12.1 because it finds package entries in the product registry even though you do not see a sunstudio12.1 directory in /opt.

The script asks you to confirm that you want to uninstall the software it has located.

It then executes pkgrm commands for all of the installed packages. It automatically interacts with pkgrm, answering yes when pkgrm asks for confirmation that the package should be removed, so do not type y when you see the questions from pkgrm.

The script informs you when all the packages have been removed. Your Sun Studio 12 Update 1 software is now completely uninstalled and you can reinstall it if you wish by running the installer.

• Upgrading your system to the Solaris 10 OS 1/06 update release.
• Installing the appropriate dbx patch for the version of Sun Studio software you are running:
  117844 for Sun Studio 10 software on SPARC platforms
  117845 for Sun Studio 10 software on x86 platforms
  121023 for Sun Studio 11 software on SPARC platforms
  121616 for Sun Studio 11 software on x86 platforms

The -xtarget expansions for ultra3, ultra3i, ultra3cu, ultra3iplus, ultra4, ultra4plus all include -xarch=sparcvis2. Also the documentation does not mention that -xtarget accepts ultra4 and ultra4plus.

The expansion of -xtarget=ultra4 is

-xarch=sparcvis2
 -xcache=64/32/4:8192/128/2
 -xchip=ultra

The expansion of -xtarget=ultra4plus is

-xarch=sparcvis2
 -xcache=64/32/4/1:2048/
 64/4/2:32768/
 64/4/2
 -xchip=ultra4plus

You can always check the expansion of any -xtarget option by invoking the compiler with the -### option of the cc command or -xdryrun option of the CC and f95 commands. For example:

$ CC -xdryrun -xtarget=ultra4
###     command line files and
 options (expanded):
### -dryrun -xarch=sparcvis2
 -xcache=64/32/4:8192/128/2
 -xchip=ultra4
