Overview

This section describes the steps to create an installation image that can be used by JumpStart and the steps required to configure the system after the operating system is installed.

JumpStart server refers to the server that stores the operating system images that are available in your environment. JumpStart client refers to the systems that can be provisioned with one of the operating system images stored on the JumpStart server.

Multiple installation and boot servers can be configured.

Solaris 10 x86 clients with service processors that are IPMI compliant can be provisioned as long as you also have a properly configured Solaris DHCP server.

One JumpStart adapter must be installed and configured on each JumpStart boot server to provide support for multiple JumpStart adapter environments.
