Profile Test Examples

The following example shows how to use pfinstall to test a profile that is named basic_prof. The profile is tested against the disk configuration on a system on which the Solaris 10 5/09 software is installed. The basic_prof profile is located in the /jumpstart directory, and the path to the Solaris Operating System DVD image is specified because Volume Manager is being used.

Example 3–16 Profile Test Using a Solaris 10 5/09 System

# cd /jumpstart
# /usr/sbin/install.d/pfinstall -D -c /cdrom/pathname basic_prof

The following example shows how to use pfinstall to test the profile that is named basic_prof on a Solaris 10 5/09 system. The test is performed against the 535_test disk configuration file. The test checks for 64 Mbytes of system memory. This example uses a Solaris Software for SPARC Platforms - 1 CD or Solaris Software for x86 Platforms - 1 CD image that is located in the /export/install directory.

Example 3–17 Profile Test Using a Disk Configuration File

# SYS_MEMSIZE=64
# export SYS_MEMSIZE
# /usr/sbin/install.d/pfinstall -d 535_test -c /export/install basic_prof
