Hi - can anyone tell me if it is possible to build a Solaris 10 SPARC server by way of jumpstart / JET and use a flash archive from a different architecture - both servers are SPARC 64bit. In detail I have the following setup.
A Solaris 10 SPARC JET (jumpstart) server I use for Solaris 10 SPARC 64bit installs that works perfectly well.
A requirement to recreate a Solaris 10 SPARC server where I have a full flash archive, the server in question is a:
Source Server:
SunOS server1 5.10 Generic_150400-04 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V245
System Configuration: Oracle Corporation sun4u Sun Fire V245
System clock frequency: 188 MHZ
Memory size: 2GB
Target Server:
The server I need to build on is a Sun Netra T4-1 SPARC.
When I try to run the SUNWjet make_client client command it finally fails with:
..

Checking product flash
FLASH: Checking nfs://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/logs/jumpstart/Flash/server1-image-20130128.flash
WARNING: FLASH: This flar (sun4u) is not for this client arch (sun4v)
Checking product jass
--------------------------------------------------------------
Check of client bdssnew
** FAILED **

So I understand that the source server is a sun4u and the target is a sun4v but is what I'm trying to do possible, and if so how?
Thanks - Julian.
