Hello,
I created a Solaris 10 zone using sysidcfg to automate
the configuration of the zone. The problem that I am
encountering is that the zone cannot communicate with
the DNS server (specified in sysidcfg) to validate
the hostname on first boot. Thus, on first boot, sysid
reverts to the name service selection menu on the console.
I have to manually configure name services through the zone
console before the boot will complete. What do I need to
set in sysidcfg to cause system configuration to use what I
have specified irregardless of whether or not it can reach
the specified DNS server or not?
Here is a sample sysidcfg file:
system_locale=C
terminal=xterm
network_interface=PRIMARY { hostname=student111 ip_address=61.136.71.3
protocol_ipv6=no }
security_policy=NONE
name_service=DNS {domain_name=example.com name_server=61.136.70.40}
timezone=US/Central
root_password=password
nfs4_domain=example.com
Thanks in advance,
Brad
