c. Modify the lpfc.conf file to use persistent binding. For more information,
refer to the Emulex Drivers for Solaris User Manual available on the
Emulex website.
5. Copy the DVD image in the drive to the install server's hard disk.
# ./setup_install_server install_dir_path
install_dir_path specifies the directory where the DVD image is to be copied.
The setup_install_server command indicates whether you have enough disk space
available for the Solaris Software disc images. To determine available disk space,
use the df -kl command.
6. Decide whether you need to make the install server available for mounting:
If the install server is on the same subnet as the system to be installed or you are
using DHCP, you do not need to create a boot server. Proceed to step 7.
If the install server is not on the same subnet as the system to be installed and you
are not using DHCP, complete the following steps.
a. Verify that the path to the install server's image is shared appropriately.
# share | grep install_dir_path
install_dir_path specifies the path to the installation image where the DVD
image was copied:
If the path to the install server's directory is displayed and anon=0 is
displayed in the options, proceed to step 7.
If the path to the install server's directory is not displayed or you do not
have anon=0 in the options, continue and make the install server
available to the boot server. Using the share command, add this entry to
the /etc/dfs/dfstab file.
share -F nfs -o ro,anon=0 -d "install server directory"
install_dir_path
b. Verify that the nfsd daemon is running.
If the install server is running the current Solaris release, or a compatible
version, type the following command.
# svcs -l svc:/network/nfs/server:default
If the nfsd daemon is online, continue to step c. If the nfsd daemon is not
online, start it.
# svcadm enable svc:/network/nfs/server
If the install server is running the Solaris 9 OS, or a compatible version, type
the following command.
# ps -ef | grep nfsd
If the nfsd daemon is running, continue to Step c. If the nfsd daemon is not
running, start it.
# /etc/init.d/nfs.server start
c. Share the install server.
