flag day: 6722523: dladm parsable output is changing

Subject: flag day: 6722523: dladm parsable output is changing

All,

the putback of

6722523 dladm needs a robust and convenient parsable output mode

constitutes a flag day for users of xVM on Solaris:

The output of some dladm sub-commands, like "show-link" and "show-aggr"
is changing in an incompatible way (PSARC 2008/374).
/usr/lib/xen/scripts/vif-vnic has been updated to accomodate this change
and needs to be updated in sync with the onnv bits using the usual method.
Failure to keep these bits in sync may result in loss of network
connectivity the next time you start a guest domain.

regards
Michael
