You associate an AI manifest with a service in one of two ways:
While creating a manifest.
Each time you create a manifest, you must specify the install service for that manifest. Thus the command creates both the manifest and the association.
For example:
$ installadm create-manifest -n solaris11_4-sparc -m mem-manifest \ [-c criteria]
While configuring an install service.
This method sets an existing manifest to be the service's default manifest.
$ installadm create-service | set-service -M mem-manifest -n install-sparc \ [-c criteria]
To remove the association between a manifest and a service, you simply delete the manifest:
$ installadm delete-manifest -m mem-manifest -n install-sparc
