Description
The sbspboot command is used to initiate a NIM Resource Network Boot of an SP
node. Use this command instead of the Classic Network Boot method to ensure
that the proper SP and PSSP specific scripts are executed. For more information
about this command, see Chapter 13, “Network Boot/Installation Configuration”,
on page 13-1.
This command must be initiated from the SP Control workstation.
The specified NIM SPOT and NIM LPPSOURCE entries must be the same as
those specified when the client was added for network boot using the
mksbnetboot command.

prompted installation.
Examples
