I asked yesterday morning about jumpstart with this:
|Hi managers.
|I have a v240 that amongst other things is configured as a jumpstart
|server. It can serve out installs, upgrades and .flars for solaris 9 and
|10 sparc and soon I'll be serving out solaris 10 x64 stuff too. What it
|can't do is jumpstart over multiple networks. I've read that its
possible
|to have a server w/multiple nics jumpstart to multiple networks without
|using separate install/boot servers for each network... but I've yet to
|read how it's done.
|What's the trick to this?
|Can someone help me out?
|I'll summarize....
|
|Thanks.
|Dean Ross-Smith
I got eight responses in 30 minutes. Thatbs great!
Thanks to Dana Hudes, Adam Levin, Kalyan X Manchikanti, Brian Gregg, Tom
Zurita, Tobias Nuttt, Gary Chambers and a few others who responded.
Gary, Dana, Kalyan and Adam were all pointing to an approximate answer
best put by Gary (and I hope to reduce my pile of stuff soon so that I can
try it!):
When you specify the Jumpstart server, use the hostname for the network on
which you wish to Jumpstart. I have four networks from which I can use
Jumpstart (the Jumpstart server is named jump, jump63, jump64, and
jump164). When I call add_install_client, I use the appropriate
Jumpstart server hostname for that network.
--------------------------------
For those who have a sparc only JS install, sun provides an x86 jumpstart
helper file on the solaris 10u3 dvd (use lofiadm to mount and browse
cd/dvd images).
Once again, thanks everyone. Sun managers is way useful. If you read the
list, please give back by helping out your fellow managers!
Dean
