Booting From a WAN Boot Server
The WAN boot installation method enables you to boot and install software over a
wide area network (WAN) by using HTTP. To support booting the M3000 server
from a WAN boot server, you must have the appropriate wanboot executable
installed and OpenBoot
support.
For information about WAN boot servers, refer to the Solaris 10 Installation Guide:
Network-Based Installations for the version of Solaris 10 OS that you are using. You
can find Solaris 10 OS documentation here:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/prod/solaris.10
If you do not upgrade the wanboot executable, the server will panic, with messages
similar to the following:
krtld: load_exec: fail to expand cpu/$CPU
krtld: error during initial load/link phase
panic - boot: exitto64 returned from client program
