After setting up the /jumpstart directory and files, you use the add_install_client command on the install server, server-1, to set up the engineering systems to install the Solaris software from the install server. server-1 is also the boot server for the engineering group's subnet.
server-1# cd /export/install/sparc_10/Solaris_10/Tools server-1# ./add_install_client -c server-1:/jumpstart host-eng1 sun4u server-1# ./add_install_client -c server-1:/jumpstart host-eng2 sun4u
In the add_install_client command, the options that are used have the following meanings:
