Xcat Installation and update software

After a few xcat of the previous article, today to see how Xcat Installation and upgrade software, we separate the installation of the update release package and the non-distribution package.

First use the Lsdef command to view the OSImage information, such as

Lsdef-t osimage centos6.6-x86_64-install-compute ...
    pkgdir=/install/centos6.6/x86_64
    pkglist=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/centos/compute.centos6.pkglist
    otherpkgdir=/install/custom/centos6.6/x86_64/
    Otherpkglist=/install/custom/centos6.6/x86_64/mypkgs.pkglist
...

Here are a few of the attributes listed above
* Pkgdir defines the location of the distribution package
* Pkglist defines the list of distribution packages to install
* Otherpkgdir defines the location of the non-distribution package
* Otherpkglist defines the list of non-distribution packages to install
If a property is missing, the description does not specify this property when it is defined.

Install the update release package

1. To install or update a package in a release, simply add the package to be installed or updated to the Pkglist definition file
2. Run the "Updatenode <noderange>-S" command

Install update non-release package

1. First create a directory to put additional packages, such as

  Mkdir-p/install/custom/centos6.6/x86_64/

2. Then copy the additional RPM package to this directory, such as using the HELLOWORLD-1.0.0-1.EL6.X86_64.RPM package generated in my previous blog

  CP helloworld-1.0.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm/install/custom/centos6.6/x86_64/

3. Run "Createrepo" in this directory to create the local warehouse

  cd/install/custom/centos6.6/x86_64/
  Createrepo.

4. Create a Package installation list file, such as "/install/custom/centos6.6/x86_64/mypkgs.pkglist", which reads as follows:

HelloWorld

5. Modify the Otherpkgdir and Otherpkglist properties of OSImage

Chdef-t osimage centos6.6-x86_64-install-compute \
    otherpkgdir=/install/custom/centos6.6/x86_64/\
    Otherpkglist=/install/custom/centos6.6/x86_64/mypkgs.pkglist

6. Run the Updatenode <noderange>-S command to install the new package

7. If you want to update the package, simply place the new RPM package in the/install/custom/centos6.6/x86_64/directory, and then run the Updatenode <noderange>-S command again.
