Hi Evan, are those problems specific to AI configuration (e.g. network configuration, memory consumption) ?
In order to recognize if it is AI specific, I might recommend to try the installation transfer phase invoked within installed OpenSolaris system on affected machines - e.g. # ptime /usr/bin/pkg image-create -f -F -p opensolaris.org=<ips_repo> <http://192.1.4.1:8009> /test_root # ptime /usr/bin/pkg -R /test_root install entire <mailto:entire at 0.5.11> # ptime /usr/bin/pkg -R /test_root install SUNWcsd <mailto:SUNWcsd at 0.5.11> # ptime /usr/bin/pkg -R /test_root install SUNWcs <mailto:SUNWcs at 0.5.11> # ptime /usr/bin/pkg -R /test_root install babel_install <mailto:babel_install at 0.1> And try 'one client' and 'many clients' cases.
