share_setup(1M)

NAME
     share_setup, client_setup, verify - diskless software installation tools

SYNOPSIS
     share_setup
     client_setup
     verify [ -cs ] filename

DESCRIPTION
     Share_setup , client_setup , and verify are tools that help create proper
     configuration files for diskless installation.  Configuration files are
     fed into share_inst(1M), client_inst(1M), and clone_client(1M) so that
     installation tools will know the hardware information for the machines
     that will act as diskless clients.

     Share_setup allows a user to interactively create a configuration file
     for a share tree while client_setup allows the same for a client tree
     configuration file.

     Verify is a program that checks the validity of a share or client
     configuration file.  If the file is fine, verify exits silently else it
     returns the line number of the offending line in filename and the type of
     error.

OPTIONS
     -c filename
               Tells verify to check the file filename as if it is a client
               tree configuration file

     -s fliename
               Tells verify to check the file filename as if it is a share
               tree configuration file

NOTE
     Please see the Diskless System Administration Guide for more details.
     This man page was not intended to give enough information to perform a
     complete install.  The NFS release notes contain additional installation
     information not included in the guide.

     If Onyx4 clients with InfinitePerformance graphics (configured with
     CPUBOARD=IP35 and GFXBOARD=VOYAGER) are to be used, they must have their
     own separate share tree, apart from all other system types.  The system
     installation for Onyx4 InfinitePerformance systems is incompatible with
     that of other IRIX based systems.

     All diskless scripts are meant to be executed from the /var/boot
     directory.
