Jörgen, when do you plan to release Cobbler 2.8? You already know what will be on it (bug fixes, new features, doc improvements, refactorings)? Regards, Alan Evangelista

Hi, We are designing automation deploy Eucalyptus system in a large private cloud data center. The goal is customer can create and manage his eucalyptus system in the website .We need create a PXE server and other relate servers to auto install all eucalyptus nodes which have different configuration like disk space, network, RPM package and so on .I think Cobbler is suitable for us .

custom dhcp_restart_command

by Britt Houser (bhouser)

I'm working on a RHEL7 docker container with cobbler in it. I have setup cobbler in this container to manage dhcpd. One hurdle with this setup is that a cobbler sync needs to restart dhcpd, but a docker container has no systemd. So what I've done to work around this is to edit /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/cobbler/modules/sync_post_restart_services .py and change the dhcp_restart_command to call a simple shell script: -- #!/bin/sh #dhcpd writes its pid to /var/run/dhcpd.pid #kill the PID in the file, if the file exists if [ -f "/var/run/dhcpd.pid" ] then kill `cat /var/run/dhcpd.pid` fi #Start again using command line from /usr/lib/systemd/system/dhcpd.service /usr/sbin/dhcpd -cf /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf -user dhcpd -group dhcpd -- I do realize I'm not really supposed to have more than one process in a container. But if I put dhcpd in its own container, the problem would just be even harder b/c now cobbler in its container needs to restart another container. So I took the easier route and put them in the same container. So in this implementation, it would be useful if I could specify a custom dhcp_restart_command in /etc/cobbler/settings. Would that be a change the community would be interested in accepting? Thx, britt
