Interactive Automated Installer Manifest Creation and Management

A new interactive browser interface enables you to easily create AI manifests that can be used on an AI server. By stepping through a series of screens, you can quickly create a new manifest that describes the disk layout, ZFS datasets, IPS repository, and software packages and zones to be installed. The manifest is saved to the AI server and can later be associated with a client using the installadm(1M) command.
