Solaris Installation Process through JET

The build sequence of the JumpStart Enterprise Toolkit is as follows:

1. Standard Solaris installation phase

2. Call standard JumpStart finish script

3. Call individual module “install” scripts

4. Reboot target server

5. (Optional) Platform related installation tasks; reboot after each level

6. (Optional) Application related installation tasks; reboot after each level

7. (Optional) Final installation tasks (no reboot)

8. login prompt appears on the console

The optional steps after the initial reboot depend on the individual modules configured within the target server template. Modules can be written in such a way that they request that the toolkit perform additional work after the first reboot. In this request, the modules can identify whether the work should be in the platform-related area, the application-related area, or whether the work needs to be done at the end, when no more reboots are planned.
