## NAME

> diskless_nodeprof.conf - `permit the customization of Solaris installation on diskless nodes`

## SYNOPSIS

> `diskless_nodeprof.conf`

## DESCRIPTION

> Creating the `diskless_nodeprof.conf` file enables you to to install a different Solaris distribution in the diskless node environment of a cluster to the distribution you are installing on the master-eligible nodes. To use the `diskless_nodeprof.conf` file you must be installing a cluster with `nhinstall`.

> When the `diskless_nodeprof.conf` file is present in the local directory on the installation server, the file's contents supersede the contents of both the `nodeprof.conf` file and the default profile file that `nhinstall` uses for diskless node installation. If the `diskless_nodeprof.conf` file exists, `nhinstall` uses the `nodeprof.conf` file for details of the Solaris profile it is to install on the master-eligible nodes and the `diskless_nodeprof.conf` file for the Solaris profile it is to install in the diskless node environment.

> Note – If you want to install the same Solaris profile on master-eligible and diskless nodes, do not create a `diskless_nodeprof.conf` file.

> The first reference to cluster in the `diskless_nodeprof.conf` file must refer to the cluster parameter to be given to the `smosservice add` command. Any other directives given in this file will be ignored. For more information about the `smosservice` command, see the `smosservice`(1m) man page.

> Note – You cannot use `nhinstall` to install software on dataless nodes.

> For information about the format and contents of the `diskless_nodeprof.conf` file, see the `nodeprof.conf` file and Preparing Custom JumpStart Installations (Tasks) in the Solaris Installation Guide.
