How to add a machine to boot server streetfighter ?

Edit /etc/ethers
go to /export/install/...osname.../Tools/addclient <machinename> sun4u
/* sun4u -- Sun Ultra */
It will cleanup the old entries in /etc/bootparams add the new ones.

ok> printenv
ok> setenv boot-device net
ok> boot net -install

To list the patches installed in a system:
# showrev -p
....
To back out the patch:
# cd /var/sadm/patch/<patch-number>
# ./backoutpatch ; reboot
ok> boot -r  # recreates /devices entries. Same as touch /reconfigure

The device instance is derived from device (major,minor) tuple in
a device specific way. For e.g. in SCSI, the instance = minorno/8.
partition number=minorno%8.
For ses device, the instance = minorno.
The attach() routine provided by device driver creates minor device nodes
for the instance.

Device driver always translates the minor number to instance number by
a device dependent function (like instanceno=minorno OR inst_no=minorno/8, etc)
Then it knows about which device it should talk to.

Experiment:
Insert scsi device and see what entries are created in /devices and /dev.
Remove it and boot -r. See if the entries have been removed.
Insert it again with diff scsi id and see what entries have been created
in /devices and /dev.

How to reboot with arg?
# reboot -- -r # reconfigure boot
# reboot -- /kernel/sparcv9/

sfw consolidation:
   /ws/sfw10-patch (exported from sfw10-patch.sfbay)
   /ws/sfwnv-gate  (exported from sfwnv.sfbay)

Building SFW is very similar to building ON. Refer to http://sfwnv.sfbay/README.txt  
and http://sfwnv.sfbay/sfwnv-build.txt for instructions.

http://onnv.sfbay  - for nevada build instructions

Instructions for building sfw nv :

etsfwpath() {

ONBLD=/ws/onnv-tools/onbld/bin
#ONBLD=/opt/onbld/bin
TWARE=/ws/onnv-tools/teamware/bin
#TWARE=/ws/onnv-tools/teamware/bin

export PATH="$ONBLD:$ONBLD/`uname -p`:$TWARE:/sbin:/usr/bin"

}

sfwbuild(){

setsfwpath

MYWS=/export/home/tmp/thava/sfwbld

mkdir -p $MYWS
cd $MYWS
export CODEMGR_WS=$PWD
# bringover or just copy the files
# bringover -w .  -p  /ws/sfwnv-clone  .

 [ -d $MYWS ] &&
 [ -d  /ws/sfwnv-clone ] &&
 ( ( cd /ws/sfwnv-clone && tar cf - . ) | (cd $MYWS ; tar xf - ) )

 cp $MYWS/usr/src/tools/env/sfw-developer.sh  myenv-tmp.sh

    please refer to file:///net/benet.eng/benet/S11/CBE/index.html

public build machine in USA: x86
    'ion.sfbay' is 2-way 2 GHz AMD64 MHz

Also, you need the ON build tools package. The most recent
should work or the ones in /ws/onnv-tools/onbld.

cd /opt
ln -s /ws/onnv-tools/SUNWspro/SS11 SUNWspro
ln -s /ws/onnv-tools/SUNWspro/SOS8 teamware

Sample environment files can be found in
the source tree in usr/src/tools/env.

BE SURE $VERSION IS NOT SET IN YOUR ENVIRONMENT FILE
(ON uses it - it breaks sfw's tcl/tk build)

/opt/onbld/bin/nightly <name of your env file> 

To manually run build :

bldenv -f <name of your env file>
cd $SRC (puts you at the top of the tree)

Then you can do something like:

dmake setup

(must do all these to a virgin workspace before you can build
anything else)

and then you can cd to the place you want to build and do

dmake -f Makefile.sfw
