3. Create a directory to contain the DVD image.
# mkdir -p install_dir_path
Install_dir_path specifies the directory where the DVD image is to be copied.
4. Change to the Tools directory on the mounted disc.
# cd /cdrom/cdrom0/Solaris_10/Tools
Note: For Solaris 10 only:
a. Remove the SUNWemlxu and SUNWemlxs from
/install_dir_path/Solaris/Tools/Boot.
b. Unzip the elxfc driver to a temporary directory:
pkgadd -R /install_dir_path/Solaris/Tools/Boot -d /tmp
c. Modify the elxfc.conf file to use persistent binding. For more
information, see the Emulex Driver for Solaris User Manual, which is
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.
Note: 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 installation server available for mounting:
If the installation 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 (all on one line):
share -F nfs -o ro,anon=0 -d “install server directory”
install_dir_path
b. Verify that the nfsd daemon is running, or start the nfsd daemon.
If the install server is running the current Solaris release, or compatible
version, type the following command:
# svcs -l svc:/network/nfs/server:default
