I have a Solaris 8 (sparc) Jumpstart server, and I'm trying to jumpstart
Solaris 10 sparc clients from it using the ISC DHCPD server. I do DHCP
jumpstart with Solaris 8 clients successfully from the same server using the
same parameter names but with different values, so I'm miffed why its not
working. I'm using dhcpd version 3.0.3.
After doing 'boot net:dhcp - install' on the client configured for Solaris 10,
it successfully boots off the inetboot image on my jumpstart server, but then
it goes into the interactive menu. Its passing on at least the filename and
next-server parameters. No matter how I change around the dhcpd.conf file, it
won't recognize what put in for the directory with the sysidcfg file
(SUNW.sysid-config-file-server in dhcpd.conf), and may not be getting any of
the SUNW parameters.
What I get on the console after doing 'boot net:dhcp - install':
Beginning system identification...
Searching for configuration file(s)...
Using sysid configuration file /sysidcfg
Search complete.
Here's the relevant part of my dhcpd.conf file:
subnet 10.31.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option broadcast-address 10.31.10.255;
option routers 10.31.10.1;
filename "inetboot.SUN4U.Solaris_10-1";
next-server 10.31.60.21;
use-host-decl-names on;
vendor-option-space SUNW;
option SUNW.JumpStart-server "jumper:/export/JS/sol10/configs";
option SUNW.install-server-hostname "jumper";
option SUNW.install-server-ip-address 10.31.60.21;
option SUNW.install-path "/export/JS/sol10/01_06";
option SUNW.root-server-hostname "jumper";
option SUNW.root-server-ip-address 10.31.60.21;
option SUNW.root-path-name
"/export/JS/sol10/01_06/Solaris_10/Tools/Boot";
option SUNW.sysid-config-file-server =
"jumper:/export/JS/sol10/configs/workstation";
host sol10client01 { hardware ethernet 00:03:ba:09:13:ec; fixed-address
10.31.10.20; }
}
