Hi,
I am trying to setup a Jumpstart DHCP server on Solaris 10. I've used
the add_install_client to add the client machine to be booted.
I have been troubleshooting my problems getting the client to boot from
the install server and have noticed people mentioning the /etc/bootparams
and /etc/ethers files on the install server. However, I do not have
either of these files present at all.
The man page for add_install_client states it will update the bootparams
file, but in my case it didn't.
I ran the add_install_client command with the following options:
# add_install_client \
-d \
-e 0:3:ba:a8:ea:59 \
-s 10.37.3.17:/export/home/install/Solaris_10 \
-c 10.37.3.17:/jumpstart \
-p 10.37.3.17:/jumpstart/sysidcfg1 \
SUNW,Sun-Fire-480R
If I have to manually create the bootparams and ethers files myself, can
you tell me what to put in these?
Cheers
Nik
