Is it possible to get Sun solaris 10 on a CD media instead of DVD ? or get the DVD and create CDs. My server has CD drive only. how to over come this issue ? any ideas ?
If the machine you want to install on is on a network, just mount the ISO image of the DVD and share it via NFS. When the install CD asks where you want to install from, give the the path to your NFS share.
On the existing server, as root:
On your install client, after you've booted the first install CD, select NFS/network as your install media source, then provide this path:
Use the IP address of the server you're sharing the ISO image from.
And if you've got a gigE network, the install will be a lot faster than any CD/DVD install, and you don't need anything more than the first install CD to boot from.
For network installation you must create custom jumpstart server (add_server and add_client scripts in cdrom directory) or you use Flash(TM) file and install it using jumpstart server ! It is automated and install Solaris for 15 - 20 min.
I want to migrate a solaris 10 os to solaris 11.4 zone.
I did this
a)Collect some data like id sysid,disks,ip,etc..on solaris10
OK
b)Create this file.cfg with this command on solaris 10
zonep2vchk -c > /migration/sol10.cfg
OK
c)Create the archive flash on Solaris10 (1 Reply)
