On a cluster member, become superuser or assume a role that provides solaris.cluster.modify RBAC authorization.
Create a cluster file system or highly available local file system for the DHCP files.
Refer to Sun Cluster Software Installation Guide for Solaris OS for information about creating a cluster file system and to Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for Solaris OS for information about creating a highly available local file system.
Mount the highly available local file system if used.
Configure DHCP.
As root, execute /usr/sadm/admin/bin/dhcpmgr.
# /usr/sadm/admin/bin/dhcpmgr |

If used, supply a NIS configuration for the DHCP clients of this server.
If used, supply a NIS+ configuration for the DHCP clients of this server.
Create your addresses and macros.
Ensure /etc/inet/dhcpsvc.conf is the same on all cluster nodes.
This can be done by either.
Copying /etc/inet/dhcpsvc.conf to each cluster node.
Moving your edited /etc/inet/dhcpsvc.conf to a cluster file system and create a symbolic link from /etc/inet/dhcpsvc.conf to dhcpsvc.conf on the cluster file system.
Ensure DHCP is stopped on all nodes.
