Boot@Boot Support
Boot@Boot is a feature that you can configure to automatically start the SunPCi III
software on one or more SunPCi III cards when it is installed on a Sun system. The
ability to automatically restart SunPCi sessions if they fail and the ability to
gracefully shut down SunPCi sessions (including performing an orderly shutdown
of the operating system) are also part of the Boot@Boot support.

Boot@Boot currently supports all supported SunPCi versions of Microsoft Windows

The following SunPCi III 3.2.1 software components support Boot@Boot:
■
SunPCi daemon
- This is a required component.

Virtual Network Computing

(VNC)
- This is an optional component.
SunPCi Daemon
The SunPCi daemon (
sunpcid
) is a dual-function application of Boot@Boot support
and includes such features as automatically starting SunPCi sessions at boot time
and shutting down SunPCi sessions at system shutdown time. The daemon is
controlled through the
and shutting down SunPCi sessions at system shutdown time. The daemon is
controlled through the
sunpcidadm
command.
The
sunpcidadm
command implements control functionality through command-
line arguments that enable Solaris server administrators to configure the SunPCi
daemon process to work as needed. For example, you can use the
daemon process to work as needed. For example, you can use the
sunpcidadm
command to add Boot@Boot support for a SunPCi III card into the
/etc/Master.ini
file, which has been expanded to contain the configuration
information for the
sunpcidadm
daemon.
You can also use the
sunpcidadm
command to enable and disable auto restart
functionality, and to start and stop the SunPCi software on one or more cards. When
changes are made to the SunPCi daemon configuration by the
changes are made to the SunPCi daemon configuration by the
