pmerge

pmerge(8)						      System Manager's Manual							 pmerge(8)

NAME

       pmerge - Builds a network bootable kernel.

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sys/bin/pmerge bootfile kernel.name new.kernel

DESCRIPTION

       The  kernel, vmunix, is not bootable over the network. The pmerge utility prepends the bootfile onto the kernel image (kernel.name) to cre-
       ate a new operating system image (new.kernel) that is bootable over the network.

       Instead of a booting a network loadable kernel, it is sometimes desired to bootstrap link a kernel over the network.  In this  case,  (ker-
       nel.name)  is the name of the sysconfigtab file on the server containing the list of modules to be loaded to the client.  These modules are
       then linked to create a bootable kernel on the client.

       The pmerge utility is used by doconfig(8) to create a bootable operating system for dataless management services (DMS)  client  systems	to
       boot over the network. The pmerge utility is automatically invoked by doconfig(8) during the kernel build process and should not be invoked
       independently.

       The pmerge utility is located in /var/adm/dms/dmsn.alpha/root/usr/sys/bin on the DMS server.
