You are performing an initial AI Installation of Oracle Solaris 11. You have not identified a target
disk for the root pool and your installation fails. What are the two possible disk based reasons for
this failure?

A.
You need to specifythe dump and swap partitions in the AI manifest to perform a successful
OracleSolaris11Installation.

B.
The disk does not have an SMI label.

C.
You have not specified a mirrored dataset for the root pool.

D.
Thedisk or slice does not match or meet the recommended size parameters of approximately
13GB.

E.
ZFSrequires thedisk to be partitioned first and the root partition must be active.

Explanation:
B: The disk intended for the root pool must have an SMI label. Otherwise, the
installation will fail.
D:The default target location for the installation is the first disk found on each client that meets the
size requirement. If the size of a disk is greater than or equal to the recommended size, the
installer selects that disk as the installation target. If the size of the disk is less than the
recommended size, the installer checks the next disk. If no disk is found that meets the size
requirement, the automated installation fails for that client.
Note:
*If you do not specify a target location on a client for installing the Oracle Solaris OS, AI selects a
default target.
Incorrect:
not A:<swap> and <dump> – Optional. You can use AI to configure swap and dump during the
automated install.
Not C: A mirrored dataset for the root pool is not required.
