Never mind, I found the simple solution to redirect machine being installed to correct server by modifying dhcpd.conf on the DHCP server. All I needed to do is provide correct values for following directives in /etc/dhcpd.conf
next-server<>; option tftp-server-name "<>"; filename "<>"; Cheers, -Atul On 5/7/07, Atul Vidwansa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, I have a DHCP server running on linux(machine A) in my lab and an x86 opensolaris(b54) machine(B). I wanted another x86 machine(C) to boot in Solaris over the network. Is it possible: 1) To create solaris PXE network install server on Linux(A)? 2) To make the x86 machine(C) boot from available Solaris install server(B) keeping DHCP still on linux server(A)? 3) If yes, how do I redirect machine C to install from machine B? All the three machines are in the same subnet. I tried all the techniques mentioned in "Solaris 10 11/06 Installation Guide: Network-Based Installations", but could not get machine C to boot from B. On initiating a network boot, machine C hangs at error signal "Bad PBR", "boot file not found". Any clues? Thanks, _Atul -- Atul Vidwansa Cluster File Systems Inc. http://www.clusterfs.com
