1z0-580 Exam Dumps - Oracle Solaris 11 Installation and Configuration Essentials

auto_reboot – Optional. Omitting the auto_reboot attribute is equivalent to setting the value of the attribute to false. By default, AI does not automatically reboot the client after installation. To request automatic reboot of the client after successful installation, specify auto_reboot="true".

Note:

*Example 1 Set the auto_reboot Attribute

$ aimanifest set /auto_install/ai_instance@auto_reboot false

To display information about software packages, refer to the following examples. No special privileges are required to display information about packages.

List the packages that are currently installed on your system:

$ pkg list -H entire

Determine whether a specific package is installed in the current image and whether an update is available.

$ pkg list amp

pkg list: no packages matching 'amp' installed

E:

* Many configuration tasks around name services have moved into the SMF in Solaris 11.

*The Service Management Facility (SMF), first introduced in Oracle Solaris 10, is a feature of the operating system for managing system and application services, and it replaces the legacy init scripting start-up mechanism common to prior releases of Oracle Solaris and other UNIX operating systems. SMF improves the availability of a system by ensuring that essential system and application services run continuously even in the event of any hardware or software failures. SMF is one of the components of the wider Oracle Solaris Predictive Self Healing capability.

Note:

*In Oracle Solaris 11, certain aspects of system configuration have changed, including the migration of several system, network, and naming services configuration to SMF.

You can use the beadm utility to create and manage snapshots and clones of your boot environments.

Note:The following distinctions relevant to boot environment administration:

A snapshot is a read-only image of a dataset or boot environment at a given point in time. A snapshot is not bootable.

A boot environment is a bootable Oracle Solaris environment, consisting of a root dataset and, optionally, other datasets mounted underneath it. Exactly one boot environment can be active at a time.

A clone of a boot environment is created by copying another boot environment. A clone is bootable.

Incorrect:

not A:IPS relies on network-accessible or locally available software repositories as a delivery

mechanism, which is similar to how other operating systems (notably Oracle Linux) supply

software updates.

not D: can be done with the pkg command.

Note:

*Image Packaging System (IPS) is a new network based package management system included in Oracle Solaris 11. It provides a framework for complete software lifecycle management such as installation, upgrade and removal of software packages.

Safe system upgrades with ZFS boot environments

Network package repositories of software

Efficient downloads and automatic dependency checking

Support for disconnected data center environments

Extensive package publishing tools

Version5.1.37-0.1/4 is installed(see note 1 below) and this version can be updated (see note 2 below).

Note:

* 1The “i” in the I column indicates that these packages are installed in this image.

2An “f” in the F column indicates the package is frozen. If a package is frozen, you can only install or update to packages that match the frozen version.

*The pkg list command tells you whether a package is installed in the current image and whether an update is available. With no options or operands, this command lists all packages that are installed in the current image. To narrow your results, provide one or more package names. You can use wildcards in the package names. Package variants for an architecture or zone type that does not match this image are not listed.

TheJumpStart Migration Utility (js2ai)is used to convert Oracle Solaris 10 JumpStart rules and profiles to a format that is compatible with AI manifest entries.

Note:

*There are no upgrade methods or tools available to transition from Oracle Solaris 10 to Oracle Solaris 11. You cannot use an installer to upgrade from Oracle Solaris 10 to Oracle Solaris 11. You must perform a fresh installation of Oracle Solaris 11.

*WAN boot

SPARC clients of AI installation over the network must support WAN boot.

To boot over the network, AI requires WAN boot support for SPARC clients. You can check whether your client Open Boot PROM (OBP) supports WAN boot by checking whether network-boot-arguments is a valid variable that can be set in the eeprom.

If the variable network-boot-arguments is displayed, or if the command returns the output network-boot-arguments: data not available, the OBP supports WAN boot and the client can be installed over the network.

*The following command shows how to check the client OBP for WAN boot support.

# eeprom | grep network-boot-arguments

network-boot-arguments: data not available

In this example, the output network-boot-arguments: data not available indicates that the client OBP supports WAN boot.
