That's great and thanks for sharing the information.
Is the infodoc available freely/publically by the way?
SunSolve says it's not free. Glenn Brunette was the primary
author/discussion moderator and is probably the best person to address
whether it can be published elsewhere.

Thanks for sharing the info, Kyle. It is indeed a bit unusual
way to install and expand the system. If you could blog the detail and
share the link, I think that will be an interesting info for whom
want to do the same or similar.
I can post the package add/deletes from my JS profile after I
reproduce it.
That'll be wonderful information. There was some related activities
called
"minimization" but I'm not quite sure whether there was any
conclusion on
that. I cc'd opensolaris-discuss mailing list for possible comment from
other folks on that.
Sun's official position on minimization in Solaris 8 through 10 is
available to support customers as infodoc 86177. The recommendation
there is to start with a smaller metacluster and add packages, rather
than start larger and remove, so Kyle's actually done what we'd
recommend. The lack of maintainable package dependencies is an
obvious problem in attempting to support minimization and leaves us
with many issues such as he's reported in this thread.
