I may give you a script how to update ports in the jails. You just need to
have the same ports installed on your base system and build them with
making a package ready for instalation. Personally I use:
PACKAGES=/usr/ports/packages /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade -v -i -a -y -p
Then if you have made jails in /usr/local/jails use the following script:
#!/bin/sh
echo "***********************************"
echo "* *"
echo "* Preparing mount points *"
echo "* *"
echo "***********************************"
/sbin/mount_nullfs /usr/ports/ /usr/local/jails/<jail1>/usr/ports
/sbin/mount_nullfs /usr/ports/ /usr/local/jails/<jail2>/usr/ports
...
/sbin/mount_nullfs /usr/ports/ /usr/local/jails/<jailn>/usr/ports
echo ""
echo ""
echo "***********************************"
echo "* *"
echo "* Executing update script *"
echo "* *"
echo "***********************************"
echo ""
echo ""
for jid in `/usr/sbin/jls | /usr/bin/cut -c 1-6`; do
if [ $jid != "JID" ]; then
echo "Updating:"
echo `/usr/sbin/jls | /usr/bin/grep JID`
echo `/usr/sbin/jls | /usr/bin/grep " $jid "`
echo -n "Continue with upgrade [y/n]: "
read oks
if [ "x$oks" = "xn" -o "x$oks" = "xN" ]; then
echo "Skipping JID=$jid"
echo ""
echo ""
else
/usr/sbin/jexec $jid /usr/local/bin/updateports.sh
fi
fi
done
echo ""
echo ""
echo "***********************************"
echo "* *"
echo "* Removing mount points *"
echo "* *"
echo "***********************************"
echo ""
echo ""
/sbin/umount /usr/local/jails/<jail1>/usr/ports
/sbin/umount /usr/local/jails/<jail2>/usr/ports
....
/sbin/umount /usr/local/jails/<jailn>/usr/ports
This asks you for updating particular jail and executes
/usr/local/bin/updateports.sh in each jail (you should copy it in every
jail). You can use this:
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
echo "************************************************"
echo "* *"
echo "* Updating indexes *"
echo "* *"
echo "************************************************"
/usr/local/sbin/portsdb -u
echo "************************************************"
echo "* *"
echo "* Fixing database *"
echo "* *"
echo "************************************************"
/usr/local/sbin/pkgdb -Fv
echo "************************************************"
echo "* *"
echo "* Updating ports *"
echo "* *"
echo "************************************************"
/usr/local/sbin/portupgrade -v -i -a -y -f -PP
That is what I use in my jails. Hope this will help you :)

Updating jails
Hi
We have an infrastructure composed by a few physical servers that
contains some full jails (up to 10 jails per server). I am wondering
what's the better and fastest way to bring the jails up-to-date when
a new patchlevel or minor version is released and installed on the
host system. This method would better be unattended, but it's not a
requirement.
Hi
Ivan
