Example 2-13 of the Automated Installation guide demonstrates setting up a server for 20 clients, but uses /tmp/newimage as the target directory. We should never recommend using /tmp for such purposes, as its space will usually be quite limited in comparison to the standard file systems, and more importantly, it will vanish on reboot, meaning the user gets to curse us and then start over! We should instead recommend creating a ZFS file system for this purpose such as rpool/ai-service, mounted at /ai-service, to avoid these problems.
