Comparing `sysidcfg` File Keywords to System Configuration Profile Directives

The following table compares sysidcfg file keywords with example AI system configuration profile specifications. Different SMF property value names might apply in different cases. See the examples in Example sysidcfg Conversion Using js2ai and in Example System Configuration Profiles in Installing Oracle Solaris 11 Systems.

Table 3-1 Comparing sysidcfg File Keywords and Configuration Profile Directives

`sysidcfg` File Keyword	System Configuration Profile Directives
`keyboard`	The `js2ai` tool does not perform any translation. Make sure the keyboard specified in the `sysidcfg` file is supported in Oracle Solaris 11. Service name: `system/keymap` Property group name: `keymap` Property value name: `layout`
`name_service`	AI supports DNS, NIS, and LDAP. The `js2ai` tool supports values `NONE`, `DNS`, `NIS`, and `LDAP`. NIS+ name services are translated as NIS. If a name service is configured, the network must be configured as `DefaultFixed`. Service name: `system/name-service/switch` Property group name: `config` Property value name: `netgroup`
`network_interface`	AI supports configuring only a single interface as part of system installation. Because of this limitation, the `js2ai` tool processes only the interface labeled `PRIMARY` or the first interface encountered in the `sysidcfg` file. The `js2ai` tool sets the network to `DefaultFixed` if a `name_service` is specified. A properly configured `DefaultFixed` network needs to provide the host name, IP address, netmask, and gateway. Automated network configuration is only supported if no name service is specified. Service name: `network/install` Property group name: `install_ipv4_interface` Property value name: `static_address` Property group name: `install_ipv6_interface`
`nfs4_domain`	Unsupported.
`root_password`	The `js2ai` tool does not perform any translation. Service name: `system/config-user` Property group name: `root_account` Property value name: `password`
`security_policy`	The `js2ai` tool supports the value `NONE`.
`service_profile`	The `js2ai` tool supports the value `limited_net`.
`system_locale`	The `js2ai` tool does not perform any translation. Make sure the locale specified in the `sysidcfg` file is supported in Oracle Solaris 11. Service name: `system/environment` Property group name: `environment` Property value name: `LC_ALL`
`terminal`	The `js2ai` tool does not perform any translation. Make sure the terminal type specified in the `sysidcfg` file is supported in Oracle Solaris 11. Service name: `system/console-login` Property group name: `ttymon` Property value name: `terminal_type`
`timeserver`	The `js2ai` tool supports the value `localhost`.
`timezone`	The `js2ai` tool does not perform any translation. Service name: `system/timezone` Property group name: `timezone` Property value name: `localtime`
