NAME

dl_booting, dl_restore- Inform the kernel that a machine is in the state of disklessly booting or in the normal state

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/dl_booting [hostname| ip_address]
/usr/sbin/dl_restore [hostname| ip_address]

DESCRIPTION

dl_booting informs the kernel that the machine specified by hostname or ip_address is in the state of booting disklessly. Hence, until the kernel is notified that the machine has reverted to the normal state, it must be viewed as an unlabeled host, and only processes with the PAF_DISKLESS_BOOT process attribute can communicate with the machine while it is in the booting state. In the normal state, packets exchanged are properly labeled.

dl_restore informs the kernel that the machine specified by the hostname or IP address is now in the normal state.

To succeed, both dl_booting and dl_restore must inherit the sys_net_config privilege.
