Only if the Sun Ray server actually supplies DHCP vendor options to the
Sun Ray. I presume that 192.168.9.77 is your Sun Ray server, and the Sun
Ray is on a separate subnet (192.168.66.0)? To get the Sun Ray server to
respond to DHCP_INFORM, you'll need to make sure that the router does
BOOTP forwarding. INFORMServer=192.168.9.9 indicates that the local DHCP
server is the only one that responded to the DHCP_INFORM.

Where is the tftpSrvr value coming from? With this set, control of the
firmware download is assumed by the .parms file on 192.168.9.77.

What are the contents of this file? The utquery indicates that it was
not read by the Sun Ray as it came up. Is TFTP running on the Sun Ray
server?

I'd suggest snooping for TFTP and DHCP packets on 192.168.9.77 from the
Sun Ray, and watch what happens when you reset the unit. If things are
set up correctly, you should see a DHCP_INFORM request, and then a TFTP
read of SunRayP8.parms, followed by the firmware download. (Since
tftpSrvr is getting set correctly, it should still work without the
DHCP_INFORM.)
