Sue,
Thanks for talking to me about this on IRC. If /etc/netboot/<IP> is a file
then the os.dirlist() will throw an exception. Thus the try/except version
of this fix is what needs to be implemented.
Thanks for catching that Sue.

All,
Sue was working on the new webserver and found another bug within
installadm list
related to the bug fix for CR 7013975. The new CR is:
http://monaco.sfbay.sun.com/detail.jsf?cr=7021903
And will eventually be available for viewing at:
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7021903
The webrev is available at:
http://cr.opensolaris.org/~johnfisc/7021903-list-sparc-clients/
The issue occurs because the server does not have any older sparc
clients.
Thus when the code attempts to access the compatibility directory the
exception
is caught and the function returns with a blank dictionary. The
solution is to
rearrange the try/except block so that it catches the blank directory
and continues
to the next path within the list instead of exiting.
Thanks,
John

Hi John,
Rather than doing the try/except, might it be better to continue if
path doesn't exist and only get the dirlist if the path does exist?
Sue
