[zfs-discuss] ZFS Flash Jumpstart and mini-root version
Hi Tony, I''m no JumpStart expert but it looks to me like the error is on the pool entry in the profile. I would retest this install by changing the pool entry in the profile like this: install_type flash_install archive_location nfs://192.168.1.230/export/install/media/sol10u8.flar <http://192.168.1.230/export/install/media/sol10u8.flar> partitioning explicit pool rpool auto 8g 8g c1t0d0s0 bootenv installbe bename c1t0d0s0 Let us know if this fix works.

Apologies if this has already been answered and I missed it. You need to be at Solaris 10 10/09 (that is, "u8"), or apply the following patches to enable this feature: * SPARC: o 119534-15 : fixes to the /usr/sbin/flarcreate and /usr/sbin/flar command o 124630-26: updates to the install software * x86: o 119535-15 : fixes to the /usr/sbin/flarcreate and /usr/sbin/flar command o 124631-27: updates to the install software I blogged about this a few months ago at: http://blogs.sun.com/jsavit/entry/zfs_live_upgrade_and_flash so have a look at that for a little more detail. regards, Jeff On 01/28/10 08:06 PM, Tony MacDoodle wrote:> > Getting the following error when trying to do a ZFS Flash install via > jumpstart. > > error: field 1 - keyword "pool" > > Do I have to have Solaris 10 u8 installed as the mini-root, or will > previous versions of Solaris 10 work? > > jumpstart profile below > > install_type flash_install > archive_location nfs://192.168.1.230/export/install/media/sol10u8.flar > <http://192.168.1.230/export/install/media/sol10u8.flar> > partitioning explicit > pool rpool auto 8g 8g yes > bootenv installbe bename c1t0d0s0 >-- Jeff Savit Principal Field Technologist Sun Microsystems, Inc. 2398 E Camelback Rd Email: jeff.savit at sun.com Phoenix, AZ 85016 http://blogs.sun.com/jsavit/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
