Solaris 2.6 Hardware: 5/98 on the Sun Enterprise 10000
This chapter includes fresh-install and upgrade instructions for Solaris 2.6
Hardware: 5/98 on the Sun Enterprise 10000.
Caution – If you are installing Solaris 2.6 Hardware: 5/98 on an Enterprise 10000
domain, your system must have SSP 3.1 running on the SSP. SSP 3.0 does not
support domains running Solaris 2.6. Please refer to your SSP Media Kit for
instructions on how to install the SSP software.
Performing a Fresh-Install
This section contains procedures for performing a fresh-install of Solaris 2.6
Hardware: 5/98 on a host domain. If you have a new Enterprise 10000 or you want
to create a new domain, you must perform all of the procedures in this section. If
you are installing Solaris 2.6 Hardware: 5/98 on a newly created, existing, or crashed
domain, start at “Setting up the SSP as a Boot Server” on page 14.
Creating Additional Domains
Domains other than the one created by the factory require software to be loaded on
a bootable disk. The following instructions assume that you have an SSP window
open.
