Ed:
Did you run add_install_client from snv_114 with the -p and -c option:
# pwd
/export/nv/solarisdvd.nvx_dvd/latest/Solaris_11/Tools
#
# ./add_install_client -d -e 0:14:4f:28:43:34 -p
ins3525-svr:/export/profile/nevadaprofile -c
ins3525-svr:/export/profile/nevadaprofile i86pc
cleaning up preexisting install client "0:14:4f:28:43:34"
To disable 0:14:4f:28:43:34 in the DHCP server,
remove the entry with Client ID 0100144F284334
If not already configured, enable PXE boot by creating
a macro named 0100144F284334 with:
Boot server IP (BootSrvA) : 10.6.35.8
Boot file (BootFile) : 0100144F284334
# more /tftpboot/menu*0100144F284334
default=0
timeout=30
min_mem64 1024

We did not have any problems with jumpstart with snv_114 at all and it
works fine.
If you want to use jumpstart, you should not use -s option though.
There are sigificant changes between snv_97 and snv_114. If you want to
jumpstart snv_114, you have to use add_install_client from snv_114 with
jumpstart.
