Typically, you would want to change the networking parameters to the
correct values. For example:
final system_name=”system11”
final ip_addr[“lan0”]=”15.2.75.193”
The values specified should be self explanatory, and should be edited to
the desired new values. It is also possible to add kernel parameters to
this file. This is covered in “Setting Install Parameters Dynamically”.
1. To perform an automatic install with a config file, first determine the
LLA of the target machine, either through the boot_admin commands (at
bootup) or with the lanscan(1M) command. Then create the following
directory (assuming the LLA is 0x08000992E346) and copy in your config
file:
# mkdir /var/opt/ignite/clients/0x08000992E346
# cp config
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x08000992E346/config
2. Since these files will be accessed using NFS, make sure they have the
correct permissions.
# chown bin:bin /var/opt/ignite/clients/0x08000992E346
# chown bin:bin
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x08000992E346/config
3. Execute the command:
# bootsys -a -v [-i configuration] <target_hostname>
The Ignite-UX user interface does not need to be running. IUX will
install the default configuration (or the configuration specified with the -i
option) and will include the specific changes provided in the config file.
4. Install progress can be monitored by examining the following file:
/var/opt/ignite/clients/0x08000992E346/install.log
