Jumpstart profiles
The jumpstart profile is used to describe how a machine
will be configured. Each profile is usually associated
with a particular rule in the rules file,
though a profile can be used in more than one rule.
A sample profile is shown below:
install_type initial_install
system_type standalone
partitioning explicit
filesys rootdisk.s0 2000 /
filesys rootdisk.s1 1000 swap
filesys rootdisk.s4 1000 /tmp
filesys rootdisk.s5 free /var
cluster SUNWCall
package SUNWlpmsg delete
package SUNWlpr delete
package SUNWlps delete
package SUNWlpu delete
-
install_type specifies the type of install
to perform. This keyword must appear first in any profile.
initial_install |
erases previous installation |
upgrade |
preserves previous installation |
-
system_type can be either server
(for a boot server for diskless clients) or standalone .
partitioning can be one of three values
default |
let Jumpstart determine the partitioning, except for
filesystems specified by the filesys keyword |
existing |
use existing filesystems, except for the
following: /, /usr, /usr/openwin, /opt and /var. |
explicit |
must use with filesys keywords to
specify layout |
cluster will add/delete a given software cluster
Usage: cluster cluster_name [add|delete]
Cluster | Cluster Name |
Core | SUNWCreq |
End User System Support | SUNWCuser |
Developer System Support | SUNWCprog |
Entire Distribution | SUNWCall |
Entire Distribution + OEM Support | SUNWCXall |
package will add/delete individual packages
Usage: package package_name [add|delete]
filesys is used with explicit partitioning
to layout the filesystems
Usage:
filesys slice size [filesystem] [options]
slice may be specified either by a disk slice
in the form cxtydz or with
the variable, rootdisk.sn ,
where n is the specified slice.
size can be one the following:
number |
give size in MB
|
existing |
use the current size
|
auto |
let Jumpstart choose the size
|
all |
use the entire disk
|
free |
use the remaining space (must be the last
filesys entry)
|
filesystem can be the filesystem
mount point, swap or overlap .
The keyword preserve can be given to
preserver the filesystem on a given slice
dontuse/usedisk
specify one or more disks to ignore/use in the installation.
Disks are specified in the form cxtydz .
These keywords are mutually exclusive.
Install logfile is located in
/var/sadm/system/logs/install_log
