Hi Greg,
We did a hack on those lines when we installed 100 Ultra 27s that was
used during J1, but we automated the process by using AI to install a
bootstrap image that had a SMF service that pulled over the zfs
sendfile, create a new BE and received the sendfile to the new BE. Work
fairly OK, there where a few things that we to run a few scripts to fix,
but at large it was smooth.... I really need to get that blog entry done :)

As an alternative, I've been taking a snapshot of rpool on the golden
system, sending it to a file, and creating a boot environment from the
archived snapshot on target systems. After fiddling with the snapshots
a little, I then either appropriately anonymize the system or provide
it with its identity. When it boots up, it's ready to go.
The only downfall to my method is that I still have to run the full
OpenSolaris installer, and I can't exclude anything in the archive.
Essentially, it's a poor man's flash archive.

Hi RB,
We have a draft of the ZFS/flar image support here:
http://opensolaris.org/os/community/zfs/boot/flash/
Make sure you review the Solaris OS requirements.
Thanks,
Cindy
