Trying to setup and automated install server. My client , an Virtual box machine HOST network enable, is able to dhcp and get the boot image.
The problems come when starting the auto-installer SMF which fails with "No valid AI service found." So far my search has found talk of this error when the boot server and client are on different subnets. This is not the case with my setup. >From what I can see dns-sd -L x86_install_service _OSInstall._tcp local does >not return a response on my client machine. installadm list on the server shows the service is avaialble and the dns-sh also responds successfully dns-sd -L x86_install_service _OSInstall._tcp local Lookup x86_install_service._OSInstall._tcp.local 18:02:22.900 x86_install_service._OSInstall._tcp.local. can be reached at agentsmith.local.:46502 snoop the network traffic I can see the following traffic dhcp05.matrix.lan -> 224.0.0.251 MDNS C x86_install_service._OSInstall._tcp.local.

I'd appreciate any suggestion anyone can offer up. Thanks alan -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
