It should be very straightforward.

Each new system installation requires a new entry in /etc/bootparam. That means `add_install_client ` needs to be run each time and sysidcfg needs to be created each time.

[cah]

First, some work has to be done on jumpstart server:

1. Add sysidcfg in /JumpStart/sysidcfg/appzone02

Code: Select all

system_locale=C
terminal=vt100
nfs4_domain=dynamic
name_service=DNS {
        domain_name=ols.minimed.com
        name_server=10.0.20.18,10.48.246.170,172.24.120.170
        search=ols.minimed.com,corp.medtronic.com
}
network_interface=ixgbe0 {
        hostname=appzone02
        ip_address=10.0.33.8
        default_route=10.0.32.1
        netmask=255.255.254.0
        protocol_ipv6=no
}
security_policy=NONE
root_password=v.Ht9UnFKcioQ
timezone=US/Pacific
timeserver=144.15.157.92
auto_reg=disable

2. Modify /JumpStart/rules to include the following line at the bottom:

Code: Select all

hostname appzone02       -       appzone02_profile    -

3. Create a appzone02_profile in /JumpStart

Code: Select all

Install_type initial_install
Cluster SUNWCall
root_device c2t338670488B799130d0
pool rpool auto auto auto c2t338670488B799130d0
pool zonepool auto auto auto c0t3A326F3C118FEC2Ed0
bootenv installbe bename solaris10_u11

P.S. "root_device" should be able to specify which disk to install

4. Run check program

Code: Select all

jumpstart:/JumpStart%check
Validating rules...
Validating profile appzone02_profile...
The custom JumpStart configuration is ok.

5. Set up new system to install from the network

Code: Select all

cd /JumpStart/install/sparc_solaris10_u11/Solaris_10/Tools
./add_install_client -i 10.0.33.8 -e 0:10:e0:35:86:8a -p jumpstart:/JumpStart/sysidcfg/appzone02 -c jumpstart:/JumpStart appzone02 sun4v
Adding IP address for appzone02.ols.minimed.com to /etc/hosts
Adding Ethernet number for appzone02.ols.minimed.com to /etc/ethers
updating /etc/bootparams
copying boot file to /tftpboot/inetboot.SUN4V.Solaris_10-1

5. Verify these files:

Code: Select all

/etc/hosts
/etc/ethers
/etc/bootparams

7. Boot from appzone02 ok prompt

Code: Select all

I was trying to use "root_device" to specify which disk to be used as boot disk.

I had the following in the profile:

Code: Select all

root_device c2t338670488B799130d0

No matter what device I specified, it always came back with the following error:

Code: Select all

ERROR: Field 2 - Invalid device name (c2t338670488B799130d0s0) (c2t3d0) (c2t143d0)
Solaris installation program exited.

I gave up and commented it out in profile.
I had 2 pool settings in the profile:

Code: Select all

pool rpool auto auto auto c2t338670488B799130d0s0
pool zonepool auto auto auto c0t3A326F3C118FEC2Ed0s0

It didn't like it either:

Code: Select all

ERROR: Field 1 - Multiple root pool keywords not allowed
Solaris installation program exited.

So I commented out the second pool to see if it works...

[cah]

I just tried it again and it actually picked up the right disk and installed the OS on it.

Here is the appzone02_profile (boot_device line didn't work):

Code: Select all

Install_type initial_install
Cluster SUNWCall
#boot_device c2t338670488B799130d0s0 update
root_device c2t338670488B799130d0s0 
pool rpool auto auto auto c2t338670488B799130d0s0

Notice: root_device has trailing s0 that is different from the failed attempt above that did not have s0 at the end.

[cah]

Finally it picked up the disk I specified in profile.

appzone02_profile (boot_device line didn't work):

Code: Select all

    Install_type initial_install
    Cluster SUNWCall
    #boot_device c2t338670488B799130d0s0 update
    root_device c2t338670488B799130d0s0
