Trusted Solaris Installation and Configuration

Set the Default Date and Time


Note -

This procedure is optional for network install, but required for custom JumpStart.


  1. Log in to a Trusted Solaris workstation as a user who can assume the role admin.

  2. As role admin, at label admin_low, open the Hosts database using the NIS+ naming service.

    See "To Open and Modify a Solstice_Apps Database" if you are unfamiliar with the steps.

  3. Select the NIS+ root master and press the Return key.

  4. Add timehost as a value of the NIS+ root master's Aliases field.

    The entry will look like:


      
    NIS+_master_host_name IP_address  loghost timehost
  5. Exit the database.

    Result: The date and time will be automatically set during install.

  6. Continue with "Add Client Information for a Network Install".
