Hi,
I am about to solve this problem, though to be able to summarize I
sould once more need your kind help.
The problem is: I do not want to halt the server, to remove one disk, so
I created a flash archive with "flarcreate", now I would like to setup a
tftp and bootserver, to be able to boot the other boxes over the net,
and during the installation use the flash archive shared on NFS.
to do this, I began doing the jumpstart setup, though for a reason not
clear to me, the target box won't boot.
The target box is is connected witha crossover cable to the bootserver
directly - for testing purposes.
I boot the target box from OBP with: boot net
but all I see is:
ok boot net
Boot device: /pci@1f,4000/network@1,1 File and args:
Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
and on the server side if I snoop on the interface:
root@datapool:~# snoop -d hme1
Using device /dev/hme (promiscuous mode)
pooldata.gte.tuwien.ac.at -> BROADCAST TFTP Read "C0A80002" (octet)
pooldata.gte.tuwien.ac.at -> BROADCAST TFTP Read "C0A80002" (octet)
pooldata.gte.tuwien.ac.at -> BROADCAST TFTP Read "C0A80002" (octet)
...
that si strange for me, since I _do_ have an entry for C0A80002:
root@datapool:~# ls -l /tftpboot/
total 458
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Nov 30 00:37 C0A80002 -> inetboot.SUN4U.Solaris_10-1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Nov 30 00:37 C0A80002.SUN4U -> inetboot.SUN4U.Solaris_10-1
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 214880 Nov 28 20:04 inetboot.SUN4U.Solaris_10-1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 338 Nov 30 00:37 rm.192.168.0.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Nov 30 00:13 sparc -> inetboot.SUN4U.Solaris_10-1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 1 Nov 28 20:04 tftpboot -> .
root@datapool:~#
this I set up with the add_install_client script from the JumpStart
solution.
my config entries are:
root@datapool:~# cat /etc/bootparams
pooldata.gte.tuwien.ac.at root=192.168.0.1:/opt/apps/jumpstart_sol10/install_dir/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot install=192.168.0.1:/opt/apps/jumpstart_sol10/install_dir/ boottype=:in sysid_config=192.168.0.1:/jumpstart/ install_config=192.168.0.1:/jumpstart/ rootopts=:rsize=32768 ns=:none

192.168.0.2 pooldata.gte.tuwien.ac.at pooldata

what am I missing/doing wrong?
any help is appreciated,
