If you are installing a system that you plan to use as a dataless management services (DMS) server, you must perform a custom installation because you need more than just the mandatory software subsets on a DMS server. Instead of creating a link from /var to a mount point, you may want to create a separate file system for /var because the file systems needed for the dataless areas are located in the /var/adm/dms directory. Refer to Sharing Software on a Local Area Network for information about setting up disk partitions for DMS servers, software requirements for DMS servers, and installing software on DMS clients.
