To Create the Solaris 10 Update 2 Image

For detailed instructions, see Creating Solaris Images and Profiles in Sun N1 Service Provisioning System User’s Guide for OS Provisioning Plug-In 3.1.

1. Log in as root (su - root) to the external OTP installation server.

2. Create the Solaris OS image import variable list.

   Type the command

   cr_cli -cmd cdb.vs.add -comp NM:/com/sun/n1osp/untyped/SolarisImage -name "image name" -u admin -p admin -vars "version=OS version;release=OS release;architecture=architecture;image_subnet_addr=image subnet adress;image_subnet_mask=subnet mask;media_src=media_source;ISO_files=OS ISO file name"

   where:

   • image name is the name assigned to the imported Solaris OS image, for example s10u2.

   • OS version is the Solaris OS version number, for example 10.

   • OS release is the Solaris OS release, for example u2.

   • architecture is the platform architecture for the Solaris OS, for example sparc

   • image subnet adress is the IP address of the server on which the OS image is to be copied, for example 10.11.53.200.

   • subnet mask is the subnet mask IP address, for example 255.255.255.0.

   • media_source is the full path to the source Solaris OS image. This can be an NFS-mounted ISO image as described in To Download and Uncompress the OTP and Solaris OS Installation Zip Files

   • OS ISO file name is the name of Solaris OS ISO image, for example sol-10-u2-ga-sparc-dvd.iso

3. Import the Solaris OS image.

   Type cr_cli -cmd pe.p.run -u admin -p admin -PID NM:/com/sun/n1osp/untyped/SolarisImage-import -tar H:NM:masterserver-jet -comp + -vs s10u2 -pto 300 -nto 100 where s10u2 is the name you assigned to the import image in the previous step.
