Adding or Changing a Network Boot Client
This option configures a network boot client to be booted from the server. This
option generates the information necessary to boot the client using the specified
NIM SPOT resource. This option also automatically generates a boot image for the
specified client using the named NIM SPOT resource. SysBack obtains the
information regarding the client’s platform and kernel type from the previously
configured NIM machine object for that client.
To update the client’s boot image after installing or updating the software into the
NIM SPOT resource used by the client, repeat this process to change and update
the client’s boot image.
To add or change a network boot client:
1. From the NIM Resource Boot menu, select Add or Change a Network Boot
Client.
Note: From a command line, type smit sb_nimaddclient.
