Hi Jack,
Thanks for the quick response. I am trying to create an AI client image
of b173. I have set the default publisher to
http://netinstall-s11.us.oracle.com/solaris
I was wondering if perhaps the manifest files had changed so I used my
manifest file with the 173 AI image downloaded from nana and it work
great there. If I try using the default manifest file in
<image_path>/auto_install/manifest ,without any modifications, with my
DC created image I get the "AI manifest failed validation" error. This
leads me to think that there is something wrong / different about my DC
AI client image. What do you think?
Thanks,
Tyson

Hi Tyson.
Sounds like you built an AI client image with bits that are
incompatible with your manifest. Check the publisher you specified
under the "transfer-ips-install" <software> tag in the DC manifest you
used to build your AI client image. Is it current? The default,
http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release is not current. The most
current is http://ipkg.us.oracle.com/solaris11/dev.
(Side note: You'll probably want to set all publisher settings to the
same value.)
Another possibility is that you built your image with current bits but
you based your manifest on an old manifest template. Lately manifest
definitions have been changing frequently. The manifest you create
should be based on the image you will use them with. Do the following
to check this out:
On the system where you created your service, check out the
default.xml and ai_manifest.xml files of your service and compare them
with your failing manifest. Find these files by doing installadm list
and looking under <image_path>/auto_install/manifest. In the same
directory you will also find the DTD specifications which define the
format of the manifest.
On a related but tangential note, it is best to build a version X
image on a version X system. So if you are building a B173 AI client
image, do it on a B173 system. Version mismatches *could* work but
are not guaranteed.
I hope that helps,
Jack

Hi,
I am having a problem with a DC AI image that I have created. I have
successfully created an AI ISO image using distro constructor. I can
then successfully create an install service using installadm
create-service. I have a problem adding a manifest to this service.
I get "AI manifest failed validation: No declaration for element
target ...." Several elements are listed. If I create an install
service with the AI ISO image made available for download. I can add
the same manifest file without any problems. I must be missing
something. Does anyone have any ideas on what I am missing or doing
wrong?
Thanks,
Tyson
