Installing Solaris by Migrating an Image from a Local SCSI
Disk
To install Solaris by migrating an image from a local SCSI disk:
1. Type the following at the OBP prompt:
show-devs
The ID information for each found adapter is displayed, such as:
/pci@5d,700000/emlx@1
2. Select the Emulex adapter on which you want to enable boot from SAN by entering
the path to the adapter, for example:
" /pci@5d,700000/emlx@1" select-dev
3. To view the current boot device ID, type:
show-devs
" /pci@5d,700000/emlx@1" select-dev /* to select emlx@1 (for
example) */
.boot-id
Make a note of the WWPN, DID, or AL_PA returned from the probe and write
down the corresponding boot entry.
4. To enable boot from SAN, set the boot device ID to the SAN device from which you
want to boot. For example:
" /pci@5d,700000/emlx@1" select-dev
wwpn|did|alpa lun target_id set-boot-id
unselect-dev
