Shell script to start a "bo lan....."

[Lionel GARCIA_1]

Hi,
I would like to create a shell script in order to launch :
(1) reboot
(2) bo lan.124.66.11.5 install

It's for Hp 11iv1 workstation

Thanks

For the reboot, you can just issue the "shutdown -r -y now" command from CLI or put it in an executable - it could be just 2/3 lines.
#!/bin/ksh
cd /
/usr/sbin/shutdown -r -y now

For installing the LAN, if not already installing as part of the boot process, put it in there.

Thanks but i don't understand what you mean by

"For installing the LAN, if not already installing as part of the boot process, put it in there."

The /sbin/init.d scripts to automatically start/stop services.

Hi

You want to do an automatic pull operation and ignite servers aren't set up for pull operations where the procedure starts at the client. They are however set up for push operations and you would use

bootsys -a -v client_hostname

from the ignite server.

Refer to Chapter 7, pages 150 - 151 of the Ignite manual attached. Or, if you can't read the attachment, you can find it

FYI:

Ignite can do "pull" bootsys.

Run 'bootsys -c ' from the client/target.
