To un-configure the client, simply select the option Configure !Network Boot/Install!Enable/Disable Network
Installation of a Client from the menu bar. Select the client to disable. The client network install configuration
will appear. Simply press the Disable button at the bottom of the screen to un-configure the network install.
Un-configuring the network install client will prevent the client from booting over the network. Although the
network install will be disabled, the information for the network install will be retained and will be automatically
used as defaults should the same client be configured for network install again in the future.
Using an Alternate Network to Restore the Data
Even though the boot and install server may be the same, it may be desirable to perform the network install
(actual restoration of the data) using a different network than was used to perform the network boot. For
instance, the client may boot from the server using the ent0 (ethernet) network, but may want to restore the
data from the same server using the tok0 (token-ring) network instead. This is commonly done in order to
redirect the restore data traffic onto a different network than that which is in use by other applications.
To install using an alternate server network, a drop-down list is provided on the Network Boot/Install
Configuration Screen labeled "Alternate Install Server Network". If you want the alternate server network
connection to be used for network install, select the appropriate network. If no option is selected, the default
network connection used by the client to reach the server (as defined by the server hostname and network
routing information on the client) will be used.
Note that this option will not be available if there was no Alternate Server Networks configured on the install
server. To set the Alternate Server Networks for a server, refer to the
server configuration options.
If you select this button, additional options will appear which will be required only if you are using a different
network adapter on the client system to contact the install server than was used to boot the client. Refer to the
section
Using a Different Install Server Than the Boot Server below for additional instructions.
Using a Different Install Server than the Boot Server
If the Server to install from (install server) is not the same as the Server to boot from (boot server), or if you
selected to Use an Alternate Server IP/Hostname to reach the install server, additional fields will appear on
the screen allowing you to configure the network differently for contacting the
install server :
