Multiple sysidcfg files on jumpstart server
Hello,

I 've a jumpstart configured, its working fine .. i can build servers from this jumpstart server but i want to build 2-3 servers from the same jumpstart server simultaneously, and since i have only one sysidcfg i can only build 1 server at a time. My question is which file i shuld use for the other remaining 2 servers ?

Simply put those sysidcfg files into separate directories.

You specify that directory when you are registering Jumpstart client with the server using "add_install_client" (-p option).

Problem is m using wan boot jumpstart and i do not have to use add_install_client script and i just need to provide file=http://x.x.x.x/cgi-bin/wanboot-cgi on the client network boot parameters ..
