In regards to the default.xml in /var/ai/<port-no>, is there any

As noted before, that location is private so you shouldn't access
things in there.
I would like to find a way to configure the system so that each time
I create a new service it automatically uses my repository instead
of the default one, so where do I change the 'default' to make this
happen?
Upon creation of an install service, the default AI manifest that
gets set up with the service is the default AI manifest that is
delivered with the AI image used to create the service. What you can
do is take a copy of that from the AI image, modify it how you like,
and then add it to the install service to replace the original
default that is there.
$ cp <service's imagepath>/auto_install/default.xml /tmp
$ vi /tmp/default.xml
$ installadm add-manifest -m /tmp/default.xml -n <service name.
...
I had missed the significance of add-manifest actually replacing the
default for the service. I thought it was just for adding
client-specific manifests.
presumably this automatically updates /var/ai/<port-num> as well.
Yes, it updates that file internally.
I am still struggling with how I define a particular disk-selection
for just an individual client, and have sent separate email about this
topic.
I have also not been able to get static networking automatically
installed, and have sent separate email about this topic as well.
Hopefully, we can help you with these issues as well.

thanks for your help in clarifying my understanding of how the default
manifest works.
Cheers
