Jumpstart Issue

Managers,
I have a strange environment. So far I understood, ethers, bootparam and hosts files are included in NIS and if you want to add new server you add entry on those files at NIS server. Rest of the stuffs are stored in netapp (nfs share). Now, I have no clue how to set up boot server as netapp (storage) has static ip address and its directly attached to one of the sun box.
Could someone suggest me where to start from. When I run add_install server I got the following error.
# ./setup_install_server /sol2.9_image
ERROR: 192.168.0.299:/netboot/sol2.9_image/ is not a local filesystem, cannot export /sol2.9_image for install clients
I mounted the storage to /sol2.9_image.
I read somewhere that you can use pxe-boot and specify ehter information at add_install_client script. Does someone has encounter this kind of environment. I am still looking into it but if someone could help me to set up jump start I would really appreciate.
Thank you
