Solaris 9 9/04 Installation Guide

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 9 software is installed. The basic_prof profile is located in the /jumpstart directory, and the path to the Solaris Software 1 of 2 SPARC Platform Edition CD or Solaris Software 1 of 2 x86 Platform Edition CD image is specified because Volume Manager is being used.


Example 26–12 Profile Test Using a Solaris 9 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 9 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 1 of 2 SPARC Platform Edition CD or Solaris Software 1 of 2 x86 Platform Edition CD image that is located in the /export/install directory.


Example 26–13 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
