Hi everyone.
Please find the latest version of the Manifest Inter-File Organization
functional spec. (It is attached as I had trouble uploading the pdf to
the website.)
It is the result of our meeting last week. There is now one manifest of
three sections.
There are a few issues still to be worked out or questions I have. I
would appreciate feedback by Monday 6/22 COB.
1) Question: Can someone please clarify for me how systems will be given
a unique hostname during an install without derived manifest project
affecting the enhanced SMF profiles? Are we relying on DHCP, or is
there some other mechanism?
2) Section 5.2 paragraph 2 talks about a potential issue of an XML
authoring tool rejecting a single file containing a section with a DTD
header in the middle of the document. Are there other issues or aspects
of this issue which need to be brought up?
3) I removed the section on criteria used exclusively by the derived
manifests project because I couldn't find anything about in the derived
manifests functional spec. The criteria I am talking about were to help
in the derivation process (e.g. use derivation X if a system has
criteria x and use derivation Y for systems with criteria y), as opposed
to selection of which manifest to use.
Thanks,
Jack
P.S. I've cc'ed Ethan and Ginnie who I think are the most knowledgable
people to answer questions 1 and 3.
