Thanks, Jesse and Dave. I'm making progress, and reading the docs. I did get the bridged and static network configuration in place, and I'm proceeding to configure the install services. I had been reading info for S11 Express, which apparently differs w.r.t. disabling the nwam service. With that resolved, it's all working. Sorry for the premature poke at the alias.

Best,
Jeff

To facilitate the AI server reaching the network where your clients are, you'll either need to use "bridged" mode on your Vbox NICs, or set up forwarding for those static IP addresses that you are using on the Vbox guest (the AI server).

Various networking configuration concepts are discussed in the Vbox documentation (http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html), but please do come back with questions if things are not working for you.

Happy new year folks...

I'm looking for a procedure or any advice available toward building a Solaris 11 (11/11) AI server in the context of a Virtual Box or VMware Fusion S11 instance.

I have a VBox S11 guest installed, but I'm running into difficulty with the network configuration - wanting to go with a static IP for the VBox guest itself.

The intent it to use the AI server to install a set of mixed x86 and SPARC systems, on a n isolated network.

Thanks,
Jeff
