Diskless Client Provisioning Process Overview

Provisioning a diskless client follows a slightly different process from provisioning systems that maintain their own disks.

  1. Configure NFS to export the diskless root file system.

  2. Configure a link to a diskless client image. For more information, see Configuring the Diskless File System.

  3. Discover potential diskless clients. For more information, see Chapter 4, Discovering Manageable Servers, in Sun N1 System Manager 1.3 Discovery and Administration Guide.

  4. Install a diskless client. For more information, see Installing Diskless Clients.

  5. Uninstall a diskless client. For more information, see Uninstalling Diskless Clients. Once you uninstall a diskless client, you can reinstall a different diskless client profile.
