Restoring Solaris with network boot

Note:

If NetBackup access management is used in your environment, you must provide the appropriate credentials when prompted so that NetBackup can restore the client files.

Solaris system restore requires the name of the device that directs the client to the correct BMR boot server.

After you perform the network boot procedure, the remainder of the restore process is automatic and requires no manual intervention. After the restore finishes and the client reboots itself, it is completely restored.

To network boot a Solaris client

Prepare to restore the client.
Ensure that the client is turned off .
Turn on the client.
Terminate the boot process by using the Stop+A key combination.
If the PROM monitor prompt displays a left angle bracket (<), use the N command to get to the OK prompt.
Start the network boot by entering the following command (network_device is the device that points to the BMR boot server):
```
boot network_device
```
