Mary, I was able to assign the Client ID with pntadm and then set the "Forever" flag:
# pntadm -M 129.148.67.74 -i 0100144F97A180 129.148.67.0 # pntadm -P 129.148.67.0 Client ID Flags Client IP Server IP Lease Expiration Macro Comment 0100144F97A180 00 129.148.67.74 129.148.67.5 Zero dhcp_macro_sparc_install_service # pntadm -M 129.148.67.74 -f 'PERMANENT+MANUAL' 129.148.67.0 # pntadm -P 129.148.67.0 Client ID Flags Client IP Server IP Lease Expiration Macro Comment 0100144F97A180 03 129.148.67.74 129.148.67.5 Forever dhcp_macro_sparc_install_service This got me past the errors I was getting when trying to do the same thing via dhcpmgr.
