jsnfspath is the NFS path to the JumpStart configuration directory, such as:

10.10.10.10:/jumpstart

After adding the installation client, add_install_client prints the modifications that must be made

to the DHCP server configuration to PXE boot the client. For the Solaris 10 1/06 release and

later, only the BootFile and BootSrvA options are required. Use dhtadm(1M) to configure

the server as follows:

# /usr/sbin/dhtadm -A -m "macname" \

> -d ':BootSrvA=ipaddr:BootFile=path:'

where macname, ipaddr, and path are the values for the macro name, boot server IP

address, and boot file that were printed by add_install_client.

For Solaris 10 10/08, add_install_client can produce invalid menu.lst files for GRUB.

You might need to modify the menu.lst file. These files are stored in the /tftpboot

directory, in the format menu.lst.dhcpserveridentifier, where dhcpserveridentifier is

the identifier produced by add_install_client for the DHCP Server above. If the contents

of this file are in the following format:

default=0

timeout=30

You will need to modify the kernel line in the following manner:

If you are using a custom miniroot with a name different than x86.miniroot, you must modify the

module line in the following manner:

The DHCP/PXE server configuration is complete.
