x86: Set Up Marketing Systems to Install From the Network
Next, you use the add_install_client command on the boot server (server-2). This command sets up the marketing systems to boot from the boot server and install the Solaris 9 software from the install server (server-1):
server-2# cd /marketing/boot-dir/Solaris_9/Tools
server-2# ./add_install_client -s server-1:/export/install/x86_9 \
-c server-1:/jumpstart host-mkt1 i86pc
server-2# ./add_install_client -s server-1:/export/install/x86_9 \
-c server-1:/jumpstart host-mkt2 i86pc
server-2# ./add_install_client -d -s server-1:/export/install/x86_9 \
-c server-1:/jumpstart SUNW.i86pc i86pc
|
In the add_install_client command, the options that are used have the following meanings:
-d
|
Specifies that the client is to use DHCP to obtain the network install parameters. This option is required for clients to use PXE network boot to boot from the network. -d is optional for network boot clients that do not use PXE network boot.
|
-s
|
Specifies the install server (server-1) and the path to the Solaris 9 software (/export/install/x86_9).
|
-c
|
Specifies the server (server-1) and path (/jumpstart) to the JumpStart directory.
|
host-mkt1
|
The name of a system in the marketing group.
|
host-mkt2
|
The name of another system in the marketing group.
|
SUNW.i86pc
|
The DHCP class name for all Solaris x86 clients. If you want to configure all Solaris x86 DHCP clients with a single command, use this class name.
|
i86pc
|
Specifies the platform group of the systems that use this boot server. The platform name represents x86 based systems.
