'k, I'm clueless on diskless, so this may or may not be doable ... but would it
be possible to cp the bsdstats file from the 'disk mount server' to
/var/db/bsdstats on reboot?
Say, something scripted like:
if [ ! -f /var/db/bsdstats ]; then
if [ -f <remotemount>/bsdstats.`hostname` ]; then
cp <remotemount>/bsdstats.`hostname` /var/db/bsdstats
else
run 300.statistics
cp /var/db/bsdstats <remotemount>/bsdstats.`hostname`
fi
fi
Add something like that (real code at least) to the init/rc file used on the
diskless station, to be run after all mounts are up?
