Create the Document Root Directory
Install the wanboot Program on the WAN Boot Server
Create the /etc/netboot Hierarchy
Copy the wanboot-cgi Program to the WAN Boot Server
(Optional) Configure the WAN Boot Server as a Logging Server
Configure the WAN Boot Server to Use HTTPS
Provide the Trusted Certificate to the Client
(Optional) Use Private Key and Certificate for Client Authentication
Create the Keys for the Server and the Client
Create and Validate the rules File
Create the System Configuration File
Check the net Device Alias in OBP
Use the setup_install_server(1M) with the -w option to copy the WAN boot miniroot and the Oracle Solaris software image to the /export/install/Solaris_10 directory of wanserver-1.
Insert the Oracle Solaris Software media in the media drive that is attached to wanserver-1. Type the following commands.
wanserver-1# mkdir -p /export/install/cdrom0 wanserver-1# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/Solaris_10/Tools wanserver-1# ./setup_install_server -w /export/install/cdrom0/miniroot \ /export/install/cdrom0
Move the WAN boot miniroot to the document root directory (/opt/apache/htdocs/) of the WAN boot server.
wanserver-1# mv /export/install/cdrom0/miniroot/miniroot \ /opt/apache/htdocs/miniroot/miniroot.s10_sparc
Determine that the client OBP supports WAN boot by typing the following command on the client system.
# eeprom | grep network-boot-arguments network-boot-arguments: data not available
In the previous example, the network-boot-arguments: data not available output indicates that the client OBP supports WAN boot.
