Automating Server Software Installation With a Disk Image

If you need to install server software on a large number of servers or if you need to reinstall server software frequently, you can automate installation by using an installation image that resides on disk rather than on the installation discs.

See the system image administration guide for instructions on creating and deploying Network Install images created from a CD, a DVD, or an existing volume or partition.

After booting an Xserve computer from a NetBoot installation image NetBoot mode, you can use Server Assistant to set up the server remotely. See “Setting Up a Remote Server Interactively” on page 97 for instructions.
