Sun Microsystems CP3260 manual ipaddress =, ethernetaddress = 802022b3aa, hostname = clienthost

4.Change directories to the /usr/sadm/bin directory.

#cd /usr/sadm/bin

5.Set up the diskless clients.

For each diskless client, type the following command as superuser:

#./smdiskless add ---iip_address -eethernet_address -nhost_name \

-x os=sparc.sun4v.Solaris_n -x root=/export/root/host_name \

-x swap=/export/swap/host_name -x swapsize=swap_size -x tz=time_zone \ -x locale=locale -x ns=name_service -x nameserver=name_server

Where:

■ip_address is the client’s IP address

■ethernet_address is the client’s Ethernet address

■host_name is the client’s host name

■n is the Solaris OS version you are using

■swap_size is the size of the swap space that you will be using. The default is 24, however your swap space should be the same amount as your memory

■time_zone is the client’s time zone

■locale is the client’s locale

■name_service is the client’s nameservice

■name_server is the nameserver’s hostname

■\ (backslash) is a line-continuation character indicating that the command is continued on the next line.

Refer to the smdiskless(1M) man page for more information and options.

For example:

#./smdiskless add -- -i 129.144.214.99 -e 8:0:20:22:b3:aa -n client_host \ -x os=sparc.sun4v.Solaris_10 -x root=/export/root/client_host \

-x swap=/export/swap/client_host -x swapsize=999 -x tz=US/Pacific \ -x locale=en_US -x ns=NIS -x nameserver=nameserver_host

Where:

■ip_address = 129.144.214.99

■ethernet_address = 8:0:20:22:b3:aa

■host_name = client_host

■n = 10 (for Solaris 10)

■swap_size = 128
