Solaris in a SAN BOOT
My current situation is like this, I have a v440 connected to a netapp central storage 3140 via fiber channel, my OS and oracle is installed in the internal drive of the v440.
What I would like to do is to advertise another LUN in netapp to the v440 and let my v440 boot from it so I can start installing solaris and oracle in that LUN to create a SANBOOT.
Is my way right or there is another way to do a SANBOOT
? Please forgive my ignorance
And what's the procedure in doing a that?
