Regarding DHCP on OS provisioning server
When creating the OS Provisioning server, is DHCP server or service installed automatically? Or should I install manually?
If it is installed automatically during creating OS provisioning server, how can I start up DHCP daemon?
How do I check it works properly?
Should I turn on power and push F12 to turn on networking boot? (sunfire-v20z)
Please tell me regarding DHCP.
Thanks.

Hello moonRiver,
the DHCP Server on the OSP machine is set up automatically, you don't have to care about it. It will be activated for a specified amount of time during the provisioning process (I think 5 minutes is the default), so you can check it in the /etc/dhcpd.conf file on the OSP server if your target host appears here.
A good description on troubleshooting and when exactly DHCP is activated and de-activated can be found in the OSP Plugin manual, Chapter 10 ("Troubleshooting").
HTH,
Michael
