Integration with Oracle Solaris 11 Technologies Enables a Truly 'Automatic' Installation August 2, 2012,
Volume 174, Issue 1
The new software deployment architecture feature automated installer in Solaris 11, capable of everything Jumpstart could perform while also able to create, configure and install Oracle Solaris Zones; install onto a root ZFS pool; install software with automatic dependency checking from remote-network-based package repositories -- all as a result of its tight integration into the various technologies in the operating system itself -- frees admins from the arduous labors that were part and parcel of Jumpstart. Glynn Foster recommends Isaac Rozenfeld's guide How to Set up Automated Installation Services in Oracle Solaris 11 as a starting point for readers new to the automated installer feature.
