Explanation
Setting up the AI install server requires giving it a static IP address (B) so clients can reliably locate it, ensuring DHCP is available on the network (D) - critically, the install server itself does not need to host DHCP, it just needs the service to exist somewhere on the network. You must download the AI boot image (E) so clients have something to PXE-boot from, install the AI tools (G) (the installadm package), and create an AI install service (H) via installadm create-service, which ties everything together for client connections.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- A is incorrect because a local IPS repository on the install server is not a prerequisite - clients can retrieve packages from a remote IPS repository.
- C is the trap answer for D: it claims DHCP must run on the install server, which is false - the install server is not required to be the DHCP server.
- F is wrong because the text install image belongs to the interactive Text Installer workflow, not the Automated Installer workflow.
Memory tip: Think of the acronym "IDEGH" - IP, DHCP-elsewhere, boot-image, G-tools, H-service. The key distinction to drill is C vs. D: AI only requires DHCP somewhere on the network, not on the install server itself - this is the most commonly missed nuance on this topic.
