Defining settings for Solaris servers
In the system package, you define settings for the provisioning process to use for unattended installations of the Oracle Solaris operating system.
In addition to providing installation settings, a system package can also define a Batch Job that installs software and performs other configurations on the target server.
The process of defining settings for a Solaris system package differs, depending on the version of the Oracle Solaris operating system.
