Automating Solaris Installations A Custom JumpStart Guide

Automating Solaris Installations describes how to set up "hands- off" Solaris installations for hundreds of SPARC or x86 systems. It explains in detail how to configure your site so that when you install the Solaris environment, you simply boot a system and walk away the software installs automatically! Site configuration involves three key features of Solaris: network booting, automatic system configuration, and the custom JumpStart (auto-install) technology. Using these features to automate Solaris installations makes sense whenever you need to install Solaris software on hundreds of systems in large, networked sites.
