Sue and Frank:
This is what I do:
New tag <disk_name name_type> has been introduced
which allows to select target disk by volume name created by means
of format(1M) command, e.g..
format -d c0d0 > /dev/null 2>/dev/null - <<EOF
volname
"ai-disk"
y
quit
EOF
The xml equipvalent will be this:
<target>
<target_device>
<disk>
<disk_name name_type="volid" name="ai-disk"/>
</disk>
</target_device>
</target>
I did this on some x86 and sparc systems if there was a specific disk
that I want to install to.
i.e.:
installadm -m default.ddu.144.ai-disk-schema.xml -n
sol-11-dev-147-ai-sparc -C criteria.line2-v445
# more criteria.line2-v445
<ai_criteria_manifest>
<ai_criteria name="MAC">
<value>
0:14:4f:2c:88:2
</value>
</ai_criteria>
</ai_criteria_manifest>

Does the sample /usr/share/auto_install/ai_manifest.xml help?
The problem I am having is where/how I include the disk selection
statements which I found in ai_manifest.xml
I guess this is once again my lack of expertise with XML.
Do I select part/all of the ai_manifest.xml and include it in my
client-specific manifest?
Presumably I can't include my client-specific manifest in the
ai_manifest file as it has the embedded service_bundle already
included (as a comment) so I can't include comments within comments.
I *can* find the specification I want for a particular disk, just not
how/where to include it.
Short summary:
I have my_client_default.xml (copy of default.xml) - I include
static_network.xml in this as an embedded manifest.
How do I include ai_manifest.xml - is this another embedded manifest?
If I understand things correctly, my_client_default is an ai
manifest, and I can embed an sc manifest in this.
But I can't embed another ai manifest.
Presumably, since disk selection is in an ai manifest, I can't
specify it in my criteria manifest.
Can I just add part/all of the disk_selection section of ai_manifest
to the start of my_client_default?
You should be able to add your disk_selection tags to your
my_client_default.xml file. You can look in ai_manifest.xml for
samples of what you need to add. For example, if you wanted to select
the disk based on a specific volid, "my_volid", you could add the
following snippet, starting directly under the "<ai_instance...>" line:
<target>
<target_device>
<disk>
<disk_name name_type="volid" name="my_volid"/>
</disk>
</target_device>
</target>
Thanks,
Sue
