Configuring Cobbler Batch installation system under Linux

1. Installation Preparation

Yum install-y Cobbler tftp dhcp httpd cman pykickstart debmirroryum install-y Ed Patch Perl perl-compress-zlib Perl-dige ST-SHA1 perl-lockfile-simple Perl-libwww-perlyum install-y syslinux

2. Start httpd and Cobbler

[[Email protected] ~]# service httpd start [[email protected] ~]# service Cobblerd start

3, Cobbler inspection

[[email protected] ~]# cobbler checktraceback  (most recent call last):   File  "/usr/bin/cobbler", line 36, in <module>     sys.exit (App.main ())   File  "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/cli.py",  line  655, in main    rc = cli.run (SYS.ARGV)   File  "/ usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/cobbler/cli.py ", line 270, in run     Self.token         = self.remote.login ("",  self.shared_ Secret)   File  "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py",  line 1199, in __call__     return self.__send (Self.__name, args)   File  "/usr/lib64/ python2.6/xmlrpclib.py ",  line 1489, in __request    verbose=self.__ verbose  file "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py",  line 1253, in request    return  self._parse_response (H.getfile (),  sock)   File  "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py",  line 1392, in _parse_response    return u.close ()    file  "/usr/lib64/python2.6/xmlrpclib.py", line 838, in close     Raise fault (**self._stack[0]) xmlrpclib. fault: <fault 1:  "<class  ' Cobbler.cexceptions.CX ';: ' login failed '" >

The Cobblerd service needs to be restarted here, and it will be OK to check again

2. [[email protected] ~]# service cobblerd restart

4. [[email protected] ~]# cobbler check

8. The following are potential configuration items that you may want to fix:

10. 
    

11. 1 : the ' Server 'Fieldinch /etc/Cobbler/settings must beSetTo something other than localhost,or kickstarting features won't work.   Thisshould be a resolvable hostname or IP forThe boot server as reachable by any machines that would use it. change the server in/etc/cobbler/setting to the address of the Cobbler host

13. 2 : Span class= "PLN" > for PXE to be functional the ' next_server ' Field in / etc / cobbler / settings must be something other than 127.0 0.1 and should match the IP of the boot server on the PXE network

15. ##Change the next-server in/etc/cobbler/setting to the address of the Cobbler host

16. 3 :Some network boot-loaders is missing from/var/Lib/Cobbler/Loaders,May Run' Cobbler get-loaders 'To download them,or, ifwant to handle x86/x86_64 netbooting,You may ensure so you have installed a*recent*version of the Syslinux package installed and can ignore this message entirely.  Files inchThis directory,should want to support all architectures,should include Pxelinux.0,Menu.C32,Elilo.EFI,and Yaboot. the ' Cobbler get-loaders 'command is the easiest-to resolve these requirements.

18. ##此处可通过命令cobbler get-loaders修复，需要联网下载

20. 4 : Span class= "PLN" > change ' disable ' No ' in / etc / xinetd . d / rsync modify / etc / xinetd d / rsync in Disable is no

22. 5 : Span class= "PLN" > comment out ' dists ' on / etc / debmirror conf for proper Debian support

24. 6 : comment out ‘arches‘ on /etc/debmirror.conf for proper debian support ##注释掉/ etc / Debmirror . lines beginning with @distshearches in Conf

25. 7 : thedefault password used by the sample templates forNewly installed machines(default_password_cryptedinch /etc/Cobbler/Settings)is stillSet to' Cobbler 'And should be changed,Try: "OpenSSL passwd-1-salt ' random-phrase-here ' your-password-here '"To generate new one uses the OpenSSL passwd-1-salt ' OpenSSL rand-hex 4 ' your password ' and then replaces the generated password with the/etc/cobbler/setting file default_p The password behind the asswd_crypted
