Booting From an iSCSI Target Disk

iSCSI (Internet Small Computer System Interface), is an Internet Protocol (IP ) based storage networking standard for linking data storage subsystems. For more information about the iSCSI technology, see RFC 3720 at http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3720.txt.

You can install the Oracle Solaris 10 operating system (OS) on a iSCSI target disk and then boot from the iSCSI on which the OS is installed. For more information about installing and booting the OS by using an iSCSI target disk, see Chapter 4, Installing the Oracle Solaris 10 OS on an iSCSI Target Disk, in Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 Installation Guide: Basic Installations.
