Sun N1 Service Provisioning System User's Guide and Release Notes for the OS Provisioning Plug-In 2.0

ProcedureHow to Install OS Provisioning Scripts on the Windows RIS Server

Steps
  1. Copy the following Windows OS provisioning scripts, sample files, and tools from the product media to a user-specified directory:

    • /dvd/release/n1osp/1.0/Windows/SampleOSCFiles

    • /dvd/release/n1osp/1.0/Windows/SampleSIFFiles

    • /dvd/release/n1osp/1.0/Windows/IspScripts

    • /dvd/release/n1osp/1.0/Windows/IspTools

    Where /dvd/release/n1osp/1.0/Windows/ is the path from the product media to the Windows directory that contains these files.

  2. Create a folder to store the customized SIF files that are generated during provisioning.

    Put this folder under the RemInst share (for example, D:\RemoteInstall\folder-name). Name the folder something relevant, like n1osp.

  3. Give read and write access to the folder that you created in the previous step for the OS provisioning administration user and the RSH/SSH user.

  4. Verify that the OS provisioning administration user and the RSH/SSH user have read, write, and execute permissions to the temporary folder in the RemInst share.

    For example, D:\RemoteInstall\tmp. This access is needed so that the scripts can remove any stale temporary SIF files created by BINLSVC as a result of previous provisioning operations.

    To verify or change permissions, right-click on the folder and choose the Properties->Security->Advanced tab button. Select the checkbox for all files and folders to inherit the settings.
