Feiwen:

We are aware of the SXCE eol and is in the process of updating the procedure and confirm it will work for both 2009.0906 and 2010.05 when it is available. 

The wiki will be updated but you can try the following:

Follow these steps to create an OpenSolaris JumpStart install server to install the Solaris 10 Update 8 OS on client systems:

  1. Install OpenSolaris 2009.0906/2010.05 on the machine that will be the JumpStart install server.  
   Make sure you setup static IP address as follow:

See "If I Do Not Have Access to the Tools on the System's Desktop, How Do I Switch to a Static IP System?" in the Automated Installer Guide for more information.


   2.  Download the latest Solaris 10 Update build.  http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/get.jsp#download
       
We use Solaris 10 Update 8 and it works.


   3.  Install the following additional package:

        For 2009.0906, install SUNWbs as follow:

       ad...@line2-x4100:~# pkg authority
PUBLISHER                             TYPE     STATUS   URI
opensolaris.org          (preferred)  origin   online   http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release/
ad...@line2-x4100:~#  pkg install SUNWbs
DOWNLOAD                                    PKGS       FILES     XFER (MB)
Completed                                    1/1     9/9     0.04/0.04

PHASE                                        ACTIONS
Install Phase                       37/37
ad...@line2-x4100:~#

       For 2010.1005, install /system/boot/network as follow:

ad...@line2-x4100:~# pkg authority
PUBLISHER                             TYPE     STATUS   URI
opensolaris.org          (preferred)  origin   online   http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release/
ad...@line2-x4100:~#  pkg install pkg:system/boot/network
DOWNLOAD                                    PKGS       FILES     XFER (MB)
Completed                                    1/1     9/9     0.04/0.04

PHASE                                        ACTIONS
Install Phase                       37/37
ad...@line2-x4100:~#

4.  Do the following with the DVD that you download and burn from step #2.

This is with the Solaris 10 10/09 sparc DVD:


ad...@line2-x4100# cd /media/SOL_10_1009_SPARC/Solaris_10/Tools
ad...@line2-x4100# ./setup_install_server /export/s10u8/dvds/latest
Verifying target directory...

Calculating space required for the installation boot image
Copying the CD image to disk...
Copying Install Boot Image hierarchy...
Copying /boot netboot hierarchy...
Install Server setup complete
ad...@line2-x4100#



5.  Copy the jumpstart_sample from the DVD to the jumpstart profile location.

ad...@line2-x4100# cd /media/SOL_10_1009_SPARC/Solaris_10/Misc/jumpstart_sample
ad...@line2-x4100# mkdir /export/profiles/s10profile
ad...@line2-x4100# cp -pr * /export/profiles/s10profile
ad...@line2-x4100#

6.  Do the workaround for rm_install_client and check

7.  You need to run check with the -p <s10 image option> to validate your jumpstart profile:

i.e:

ad...@line2-x4100:/export/profiles/s10profile# /export/s10u8/dvds/latest/Solaris
_10/Misc/jumpstart_sample/check -p /export/s10u8/dvds/latest

The custom JumpStart configuration is ok.
ad...@line2-x4100:/export/profiles/s10profile#


8. 
Need to check to make sure that udp6 is available and online.

ad...@line2-x4100:~# svcs -a | grep udp6
ad...@line2-x4100:~#

If it is not available, do the following:

Edit /etc/inetd.conf and append the followling line to the end of the file if it is not there:

tftp    dgram    udp6    wait    root    /usr/sbin/in.tftpd    in.tftpd -s /tftpboot

Then run inetconv -i to convert it into xml:

ad...@line2-x4100:~# inetconv -i /etc/inet/inetd.conf
tftp -> /var/svc/manifest/network/tftp-udp6.xml
Importing tftp-udp6.xml ...Done
ad...@line2-x4100:~#
 svcs -a | grep udp6
online           19:35:08 svc:/network/tftp/udp6:default
ad...@line2-x4100:~#

9.  Now run add_install_client to install client as follow:

ad...@line2-x4100:/export/s10u8/dvds/latest/Solaris_10/Tools# ./add_install_clie
nt -e 8:0:20:fd:f2:18 -c line2-x4100:/export/profiles/s10profile -p line2-x4100:
/export/profiles/s10profile line2-t1 sun4u

ad...@line2-x4100:/export/s10u8/dvds/latest/Solaris_10/Tools#

Hi,

 I read Installing Solaris 10 Using JumpStart on an OpenSolaris Server and would like to get advices for following questions.

 1. This test was done on 2010.05, will this work for 2009.06? looks like the 2009.06 is only one for  download at http://www.opensolaris.com/get/index.jsp or http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Main/downloads
 2. Has any one actually followed the instructions in Installing Solaris 10 Using JumpStart on an OpenSolaris Serve and get it work? do we need " Download SXCE Latest Build" at step 2 , I thought that SXCE already eol'd.

thanks,
Feiwen
