NAME

 diskless_nodeprof.conf - permit the customization of Solaris installation on diskless nodes

SYNOPSIS

 diskless_nodeprof.conf

DESCRIPTION

Creating the diskless_nodeprof.conf file enables you to to install a different Solaris distribution in the diskless node environment of a cluster to the distribution you are installing on the master-eligible nodes. To use the diskless_nodeprof.conf file you must be installing a cluster with nhinstall.

When the diskless_nodeprof.conf file is present in the local directory on the installation server, the file's contents supersede the contents of both the nodeprof.conf file and the default profile file that nhinstall uses for diskless node installation. If the diskless_nodeprof.conf file exists, nhinstall uses the nodeprof.conf file for details of the Solaris profile it is to install on the master-eligible nodes and the diskless_nodeprof.conf file for the Solaris profile it is to install in the diskless node environment.

Note – If you want to install the same Solaris profile on master-eligible and diskless nodes, do not create a diskless_nodeprof.conf file.

The first reference to cluster in the diskless_nodeprof.conf file must refer to the cluster parameter to be given to the smosservice add command. Any other directives given in this file will be ignored. For more information about the smosservice command, see the smosservice(1m) man page.

Note – You cannot use nhinstall to install software on dataless nodes.

For information about the format and contents of the diskless_nodeprof.conf file, see the nodeprof.conf file and Preparing Custom JumpStart Installations (Tasks) in the Solaris Installation Guide.
