Preparing for Managing Diskless Clients

The following sections describe the preparations that are necessary for managing diskless clients.

Keep the following key points in mind when managing diskless clients:

The Oracle Solaris installation program doesn't prompt you to set up diskless client support. You must manually create an /export partition to support diskless clients. You create the /export partition during or after the installation process.
The /export partition must contain a minimum of 5 Gbytes, depending upon the number of clients supported. For specific information, see Disk Space Requirements for OS Servers.
The name service identified in the smosservice or smdiskless commands must match the primary name service identified in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file. If you don't specify a name service in the smdiskless or smosservice commands, the default name service is files.

Use the -D option to the smosservice and smdiskless commands to specify a name server. For more information, see the smosservice(1M) and smdiskless(1M) man pages.

Starting with the Solaris 10 8/07 release, the set_nfs4_domain script that was delivered in Oracle Solaris 10 is no longer used to set the NFSv4 domain. To set the NFSv4 domain, add the nfs4_domain keyword to the diskless client's sysidcfg file, for example, server:/export/root/client/etc/sysidcfg.

If the nfs4_domain keyword exists in the client system's sysidcfg file, the first boot of a diskless client sets the domain accordingly. Also, the OS server should be up and running, and the diskless client's NFSv4 domain setting must match the setting in the OS server's /var/run/nfs4_domain file.

For more information, see Preconfiguring With the sysidcfg File in Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 Installation Guide: Network-Based Installations.
The OS server and the diskless client must be on the same subnet.
You cannot provide client services on a multiterabyte UFS file system, because OS and diskless client services cannot be added to a UFS file system that resides on an EFI-labeled disk.
Note - Attempts to add OS and diskless client services to a UFS file system that resides on an EFI-labeled disk result in an erroneous insufficient disk space message similar to the following:
```
The partition /export does not have enough free space.
1897816 KB (1853.34 MB) additional free space required.
Insufficient space available on
/dev/dsk/c0t5d0s0 /export
```

After you determine the platform, media path, and cluster for each diskless client, you are ready to add OS services.

The following directories are created and populated for each OS service that you add:

/export/Solaris_version /Solaris_version-instruction-set.all (symbolic link to /export/exec/Solaris_ version/Solaris_version-instruction-set.all)
/export/Solaris_version
/export/Solaris_version/var
/export/Solaris_version/opt
/export/share
/export/root/templates/Solaris_version
/export/root/clone
/export/root/clone/Solaris_version
/export/root/clone/Solaris_version/ machine-class

The following default directories are created and populated on the OS server for each diskless client that you add:

/export/root/diskless-client
/export/swap/diskless-client
/tftpboot/diskless-client-ipaddress-in-hex/export/dump/diskless-client (if you specify the -x dump option)

Note - You can modify the default locations of the root (/), /swap, and /dump directories by using the -x option to the smosservice and smdiskless commands. However, do not create these directories under the /export file system.

x86: How to Prepare for Adding Diskless Clients in a GRUB Based Boot Environment

Use this procedure to prepare for adding a diskless client. This procedure includes general information for x86 based systems.

When you use the smosservice add command to add OS services, you must specify the platform, media path, and cluster (or software group) of each diskless client platform that you want to support.

Before You Begin

Ensure that the system that is intended to be the OS service is running a supported release. Also, verify that the OS server release and diskless client release combination is supported. For more information, see OS Server and Diskless Client Support Information.

Identify the diskless client platform by using this format:

instruction-set.machine-class. Solaris-version

For example:

i386.i86pc.Solaris_10

The following are the possible platform options:

Instruction Set	Machine Class	Solaris Version
sparc	sun4v sun4u, sun4m, sun4d, and sun4c	Starting with the Solaris 10 1/06 OS Oracle Solaris 10, Solaris 9, and Solaris 8
i386	i86pc	Oracle Solaris 10, Solaris 9, and Solaris 8

Note - The sun-4c architecture is not supported in the Solaris 8, Solaris 9, or Oracle Solaris 10. The sun-4d architecture is not supported in the Solaris 9 or Oracle Solaris 10. The sun-4m architecture is not supported in the Oracle Solaris 10 OS.

Identify the media path.
The media path is the full path to the disk image that contains the OS that you want to install for the diskless client.
In some he Oracle Solaris releases, the OS is delivered on multiple CDs. However, you cannot use the smosservice command to load OS services from a multiple CD distribution. You must run the scripts that are found on the Oracle Solaris software CDs (and optional Language CD), or the Oracle Solaris DVD, as described in the steps that follow:

Note - In this Oracle Solaris release, the software is delivered on DVD only.
Create an install image on a server.
For information on setting up an installation server, refer to Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 Installation Guide: Network-Based Installations.

Load the required OS services from the DVD image.

# /mount_point/Solaris_10/Tools/setup_install_server

Add the BootFile and BootSrvA DHCP options to your DHCP server configuration to enable a PXE boot.
For example:
```
Boot server IP (BootSrvA) : svr-addr
(BootFile) : 01client-macro
```
where svr-addr is the IP address of the OS server and client-macro is named by the client's Ethernet type (01) and the Media Access Control (MAC) address of the client. This number is also the name of the file that is used in the /tftpboot directory on the installation server.

Note - The notation for the client-macro consists of uppercase letters. This notation should not contain any colons.

You can add these options from the command-line, or by using DHCP Manager. See Example 7-4 for more information.
For more information, see x86: How to Perform a GRUB Based Boot From the Network, Preconfiguring System Configuration Information With the DHCP Service (Tasks) in Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 Installation Guide: Network-Based Installations, and Part III, DHCP, in System Administration Guide: IP Services.
After the Oracle Solaris image is installed on the disk, note the disk media path. For example:
```
/net/export/install/sol_10_x86
```
This is the disk media path that needs to be specified when you use the smosservice command.
Identify the SUNWCXall cluster when you add OS services.
You must use the same cluster for diskless clients that run the same OS on the same system.

Note - Always specify SUNWCXall as the cluster.

How to Prepare for Adding Diskless Clients in Oracle Solaris 10

When you use the smosservice add command to add OS services, you must specify the platform, media path, and cluster (or software group) of each diskless client platform that you want to support.

Before You Begin

Ensure that the system that is intended to be the OS service is running a supported release. Also verify that the combination of OS server release and diskless client release is supported. For more information, see OS Server and Diskless Client Support Information.

Identify the diskless client platform by using this format:

instruction-set.machine-class.Solaris- version

For example:

sparc.sun4u.Solaris_10

The following are the possible platform options:

`instruction-set`	`machine-class`	Solaris_`version`
sparc	sun4v sun4c, sun4d, sun4m, sun4u,	Starting with the Solaris 10 1/06 OS Solaris_10, Solaris_9, and Solaris_8
i386	i86pc	Solaris_10, Solaris_9, and Solaris_8

Identify the media path.
The media path is the full path to the disk image that contains the OS that you want to install for the diskless client.
In some Oracle Solaris releases, the OS is delivered on multiple CDs. However, you cannot use the smosservice command to load OS services from a multiple CD distribution. You must run the scripts that are found on the Solaris software CDs (and optional Language CD), or the DVD, as described in the steps that follow:

Note - In this Oracle Solaris release, the software is delivered on DVD only.
Create an install image on a server.
For information on setting up an installation server, refer to Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 Installation Guide: Network-Based Installations.

Load the required OS services from the DVD image.

# /mount_point/Solaris_10/Tools/setup_install_server

After the Oracle Solaris DVD image is installed on the disk, specify the disk media path. For example:
```
/export/install/sparc_10
```
Identify the SUNWCXall cluster when you add OS services.
You must use the same cluster for diskless clients that run the same OS on the same system.

For example, consider the following Solaris 9 diskless clients:
- sparc.sun4m.Solaris_9
- sparc.sun4u.Solaris_9
To set up these diskless clients, you would need to specify the SUNWCXall cluster for each diskless client because the sun4u and sun4m systems require the SUNWCXall cluster. In addition, diskless clients that run the same operating release (in this example, Solaris_9) on the same system must use the same cluster.

Note - If you are using a sun4u system, or if you are using a system with an accelerated 8-bit color memory frame buffer ( cgsix), you must specify SUNWCXall as the cluster.

How to Add OS Services for Diskless Client Support

Use this procedure to add OS services for a diskless client on the server.

Note - When adding OS services with the smosservice add command, root (/) and /usr packages with the ARCH=all type are not installed. These packages are skipped. No warning or error messages are displayed. After you add the OS services to the OS server, you must install the missing packages manually. For instructions, see How to Locate and Install Missing ARCH=all Packages.

Become superuser or assume an equivalent role.
Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Configuring RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services.
Verify that the Solaris Management Console server is running and that the diskless client tools are available on the system.
```
# /usr/sadm/bin/smosservice list -H host-name:898 --
```
Add the OS services.
```
# /usr/sadm/bin/smosservice add -H host-name

x86: How to Boot a Diskless Client With GRUB

If you have installed or upgraded your system to at least the Solaris 10 1/06 OS, the procedure for booting a diskless client has changed. Follow these steps to boot a diskless client with GRUB.

Note - Starting with the Solaris 10 6/06 release, when booting the failsafe archive, you are no longer prompted by the system to automatically update the boot archives. The system prompts you to update the boot archives only if inconsistent boot archives are detected. For more information, see How to Boot an x86 Based System in Failsafe Mode.

Before You Begin

To ensure that the system boots from the network, verify the following prerequisites on the OS server:

Confirm that the name service used to add the diskless client and the OS services matches the primary name in the server's /etc/nsswitch.conf file.
Verify that the DHCP and tftp boot services are running.
Configure the system BIOS to boot from the network by enabling the PXE ROM option.

Some PXE-capable network adapters have a feature that enables PXE boot if you type a particular keystroke in response to a brief boot-time prompt. See your hardware documentation for information about how to set the boot priority in the BIOS.

Boot the diskless client by typing the correct keystroke combination.
The GRUB menu is displayed.
Depending on the configuration of your network installation server, the GRUB menu that is displayed on your system might vary from the GRUB menu that is shown here.
Use the arrow keys to select a boot entry, then press Enter.
If you do not make a selection, the default OS instance is automatically booted after several seconds.
- If you need to modify the GRUB kernel behavior by editing the GRUB menu at boot time, use the arrow keys to select a boot entry, then type e to edit the entry.
  The boot command that you want to edit is displayed in the GRUB edit screen.
  For more information about modifying kernel behavior at boot time, see Chapter 11, Modifying Oracle Solaris Boot Behavior (Tasks).
- To save the edits and return to the previous menu, press Enter.
  The GRUB menu is displayed, showing the edits you made to the boot command.
- Type b to boot the system from the network.

SPARC: How to Boot a Diskless Client in Oracle Solaris 10

Before You Begin

Verify the following prerequisites on the OS server:

Confirm that the name service used to add the diskless client and the OS services matches the primary name in the server's /etc/nsswitch.conf file.

Otherwise, the diskless client will not boot.
Confirm that the rpc.bootparamd daemon is running. If it is not running, start it.
