Here's some more context: 'installadm create-client' failed because the call to setup-tftp-links exited with a return value of 1:
--- + /usr/lib/installadm/setup-tftp-links client osol_110-nightly_ib_0409_x86 unknown /export/macroroot/osol_110-nightly_ib_0409_x86 01001B24DFDA70 null + status=1 + [ 1 -ne 0 ] + echo 'create-client: Unable to setup x86 client' create-client: Unable to setup x86 client + exit 1 --- In turn, this is caused by /usr/lib/installadm/setup-tftp-links now requiring 7 arguments, the seventh being BOOT_FILE which is unset in the scenario outlined in David's mail. The requirement for 7 arguments in /usr/lib/installadm/setup-tftp-links comes from changeset 522:094f1d3299e5 (5813 installadm delete-service does not remove entry from vfstab).
