You want to deploy Oracle Solaris 11 with the Automated Installer (AI). You need to make sure that your server
and network meet the requirements for using AI.
Choose the three options that describe the requirements for using AI.
A.
You can create only one manifest per install service. If you need more than one manifest create multiple
install services.
B.
If two client machines have different architectures and need to be installed with the same version of the
Oracle Solaris 11 OS, then create two AI manifests and a single install service.
C.
You need a separate install service for each different client architecture that you plan to install, and for each
different version of the Oracle Solaris 11 OS that you plan to install on client systems.
D.
If two client machines have different architectures and need to be installed with different versions of the
Oracle Solaris 11 OS, then create two AI manifests and two install services.
E.
The install server needs to be able to access an Oracle Solaris Image Packaging System (IPS) software
package repository; the clients do not.
F.
The install server can be either an x86 machine or a SPARC machine.
Explanation:
B (not A, not D, Not C): If two client machines need to be installed with the same version of the Oracle Solaris
11 OS but need to be installed differently in other ways, then create two AI manifests for the AI install service.
The different AI manifests can specify different packages to install or a different slice as the install target, for
example.
Note: An AI manifest provides installation instructions.
The AI manifest specifies one or more IPS package repositories where the client retrieves the packages
needed to complete the installation. The AI manifest also includes the names of additional packages to install
and information such as target installation device and partition information.
F: The install server can be either an x86 machine or a SPARC machine.
