Oracle Solaris Configuration Parameters

You are prompted to provide these parameters when configuring the Oracle Solaris OS on the server module. You need to collect only the information that applies to your installation environment.


Note -  The configuration parameters vary slightly based on the release of the Oracle OS you are installing.
Information for Installation
Description or Example
Your Values (* Denotes the default value)
Language
Select from the list of available languages for the OS.
English*
Locale
Select your geographic region from the list of available locales.
Terminal
Select the type of terminal that you are using from the list of available terminal types.
Network connection
Is the system connected to a network?
  • Networked

  • Nonnetworked*

DHCP
Can the system use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to configure its network interfaces?
  • Yes

  • No*

If you are not using DHCP, note the network address
IP address
Supply the IP address for the system.
Example: 192.168.100.1
Subnet
Is the system part of a subnet?
If yes, what is the netmask of the subnet?
Example: 255.255.255.0
255.255.0.0*
IPv6
Do you want to enable IPv6 on this machine?
  • Yes

  • No*

Host name
Choose a host name for the system.
Kerberos
Do you want to configure Kerberos security on this machine?
If yes, gather this information:
Default realm:
Administration server:
First KDC:
(Optional) Additional KDCs:
  • Yes

  • No*

Name service
Name service
If applicable, which name service will this system use?
  • NIS+

  • NIS

  • DNS

  • LDAP

  • None*

Domain name
Provide the name of the domain in which the system resides.
DNS or NIS
NIS+ and NIS
If you chose NIS+ or NIS, do you want to specify a name server, or let the installation program find one?
  • Specify One

  • Find One*

If you choose NIS:
  • Specify a NIS domain

  • Indicate whether to specify a NIS server or search for one

DNS
If you chose DNS, provide IP addresses for the DNS server. You must enter at least one IP address, but you can enter up to three addresses.
You can also enter a list of DNS domains to search when a DNS query is made.

LDAP
If you chose LDAP, provide this information about your LDAP profile:
Profile name:
Profile server:
If you specify a proxy credential level in your LDAP profile, gather this information:
Proxy-bind distinguished name:
Proxy-bind password:
Default route
Do you want to specify a default route IP address, or let the OS installation program find one?
The default route provides a bridge that forwards traffic between two physical networks. An IP address is a unique number that identifies each host on a network.
You have these choices:
  • You can specify the IP address. An /etc/defaultrouter file is created with the specified IP address. When the system is rebooted, the specified IP address becomes the default route.

  • You can let the OS installation program detect an IP address. However, the system must be on a subnet that has a router that advertises itself by using the ICMP for router discovery. If you are using the CLI, the software detects an IP address when the system is booted.

  • You can select None if you do not have a router or do not want the software to detect an IP address at this time. The software automatically tries to detect an IP address on reboot.

  • Specify one

  • Detect One

  • None*

Time zone
How do you want to specify your default time zone?
  • Geographic region*

  • Offset from GMT

  • Time zone file

Root password
Choose a root password for the system.
