centos6x on Xcat offline installation

The CentOS version I use here is the latest version of the 2.8 that 6.6,xcat uses. In addition, in order to illustrate the convenience of installation of the entire use of root users.

Download the Xcat offline package first

wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/xcat/files/xcat/2.8.x_Linux/xcat-core-2.8.5.tar.bz2/download
wget http ://sourceforge.net/projects/xcat/files/xcat-dep/2.x_linux/xcat-dep-201502061114.tar.bz2/download

Unpack the installation package

Tar jxvf xcat-core-2.8.5.tar.bz2
tar jxvf xcat-dep-201502061114.tar.bz2

Create Xcat local Yum Warehouse

cd/root/xcat-dep/rh6/x86_64;/mklocalrepo.sh
Cd/root/xcat-core;/mklocalrepo.sh

Once created, two Yum warehouse files are generated in the/ETC/YUM.REPOS.D directory Xcat-core.repo and Xcat-dep.repo

Install Xcat

Yum Clean metadata
yum install-y XCAT

Check if Xcat is properly installed

source/etc/profile.d/xcat.sh
tabdump Site

Installing the Xcat UI

Yum install-y php
yum install-y xcat-ui-deps yum install-y xcat-ui

Then access Http://<xcat_host>/xcat and use Linux user root to log on to the system.
