A. Troubleshooting Automated Installations
When you set up your install server, you created at least one install service for each client architecture and each version of the Oracle Solaris OS that you plan to install. When you created each install service, you created customized installation instructions and post-installation configuration instructions for different clients as needed. To start the automated installation, you just need to boot the client.
The following flowchart illustrates how a client system is installed. On booting, the client uses specifications in the boot arguments to identify the correct install service to use. The installation is performed on the client system using a boot image, installation specifications, and post-installation configuration specifications provided by the install service.
