Autoconfiguring the SP Optional Method | Sun Microsystems V20Z

Autoconfiguring the SP (Optional Method)

Autoconfiguration replicates the majority of configuration files from an SP that has already been configured to another SP, so that the two servers have identical configurations, except for the host name and IP address.

For example, after you configure a single SP (set up users, hosts, certificates, mounts and so on), you then run autoconfiguration on each additional SP so that the settings are identical. In addition, if you modify the configuration of one SP, you can update all of them by re-running autoconfiguration on each one. (For this reason, set the IP address of the autoconfigure server to x.x.x.1.)

Note – Autoconfiguration does not merge configurations, it overwrites the existing configuration.

Note – Autoconfiguration does not work across diffrent server platforms. That is, you cannot configure a Sun Fire V40z service processor using settings on a Sun Fire V20z service processor.

To perform autoconfiguration of an SP, follow these steps:

You can start autoconfiguration either when you are prompted at the completion of setting the IP address of the SP, or by selecting Autoconfigure from the SP menu option on the operator panel at any time.

1.On the operator panel, press the Forward or Back buttons until the following prompt shows Yes.

SP Auto Setup? No

For instructions on setting an IP address, refer to the Sun Fire V20z and Sun Fire V40z Server Installation Guide.

2.Press the Select button.

The SP attempts to locate an IP address.

■If the SP successfully locates an IP address, the following prompt appears, displaying an IP address for this SP:

Setup Server IP: x.x.x.1

Where x.x.x is the first three octets of the SP IP address. For example, if the address is 10.10.30.19, the address that displays in the prompt appears as 10.10.30.1.

In this case, press the Select operator panel button to start autoconfiguration.
