[PATCH] Support for VMware Workstation to koan
by Rob Crittenden
Attached is a patch to add support for VMware Workstation to koan. This
builds on work done by Lee Faust last March and is mostly housekeeping
and other cleanups.
I've created a new virtualization type to distinguish it from VMware
Server, vmwarew.
I'm not sure if I got the guestOS part correct but I suspect that it
will work for the majority of cases, at least enough to get the
installation done. At a minimum it will prevent errors about installing
a 64-bit OS on a 32-bit VM.
I'm also sticking all files for a given VM into one directory,
/var/lib/vmware/%name. I did this so that in the VMware Workstation UI
you can select Delete from Disk and actually have everything removed.
The only other sticking point is the MAC address. In order to PXE boot
you need to have the address assigned in advance in cobbler from the
VMware range. For this to work with cobbler you need to change it to
allocate from this range (patch attached). That's fine if all you want
to do use run VMware VMs. It would be nice if cobbler could use the
koan-provided random_mac() method provided for each virtualization type.
I'm using the VMware dhcp server which is why the Ethernet0 device is
set to custom and the Ethernet0.vnet is set to vmnet1. It may be
possible to pass device info this along via the cmd-line but I haven't
investigated how.
My /etc/vmware/vmnet1/dhcpd/dhcpd.conf looks like:
allow unknown-clients;
default-lease-time 1800; # 30 minutes
max-lease-time 7200; # 2 hours
subnet 192.168.166.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option routers 192.168.166.1;
range 192.168.166.128 192.168.166.254;
option broadcast-address 192.168.166.255;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.166.1;
option domain-name "example.com";
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
next-server 192.168.0.26;
allow bootp;
allow booting;
filename "/pxelinux.0";
}

[PATCH] Added support for images to the Ruby bindings.
by Darryl L. Pierce
Also fixed some of the decoding for interfaces returned for systems. But I'm not happy with that binding still.

Setting Kickstart network details for Koan virtual install?
by HARRIS Jimmy (AXA-Tech-AU)
Can anyone explain how to specify network details for Kickstart when
using koan to do a virtual install? I am working in an environment
without DHCP and while the install works well, I am being prompted for
network details every time.
The command I'm using is:
koan --virt --server=[cobbler server] --system=[system name]
I've tried setting kickstart metadata parameters for "ip=... netmask=...
etc." in the Cobbler system record but they don't seem to get passed
through to the installation.

Clearing encrypted partitions
by Steven W. Carter
Here's an interesting question: I have an encrypted filesystem on a hard
drive, and then when the kickstart tries to run "clearpart --all" it still
asks me for the passphrase to unlock the old partition. Is there a
"correct" way around this, or should I insert a command before that to clear
it with fdisk?

Do the per-profile and per-system snippets override the "default" snippet?
by Rainer Duffner
Hi,
the per-profile and per-system snippet stuff is cool - but it seems the
custom snippet overrides the default one.
While I can see that this is something people may also want, it's not
what I need.
The per-profile or per-system snippets I want are in 99% of the cases
additions to what the "standard" snippet delivers.
Can this be implemented?
cheers,
Rainer

Updated Wiki article about "Image Support"
by Michael DeHaan
This rolls up all the image work being done so far and what is doable,
which use "cobbler distro add" and which use "cobbler image", and how
these things work:
https://fedorahosted.org/cobbler/wiki/AllAboutImages
I'm sure this will get refined over time so this should be considered
experimental for 1.1/1.2
Comments welcome as always.
We had talked about the cloning idea, and even though that is a live CD
based "image" it turns out that livecd-iso-to-pxe creates a
kernel/initrd file. Given it does this, technically that uses "cobbler
distro add" and not "cobbler image add".
The Wiki article should straighten things out.

Simple Cobbler install - suggestions for docs
by Alex Davies
Hi All,
I've been looking at Cobbler for some time, and i've finally had cause
to use it to provision a relatively small number of machines (~50).
Its an ace tool, and has worked really well. I've only just started
looking into its more advanced features, and i'm already amazed!
During the course of installing Cobbler, I found some paths at
http://cobbler.et.redhat.com/cobbler-dhcp.php (at least incorrect on a
RHEL5 machine). I'd have thought that RHEL5/FC6 would be the standard
"stable" distribution to install Cobbler onto, so thought it might be
worth updating the paragraph "Enabling DHCP Management" to read the
following:
"Change /etc/cobbler/settings so that manage_dhcp has the value of 1.
Edit /etc/cobbler/cobbler/dhcp.template to taste -- mainly just making
sure that the DHCP information is correct."
I also wondered if it would be sensible to include the variations from
the sample kickstarts that are required to kickstart RHEL{3,4,5}
perhaps in comments inside sample.ks? I couldnt find it documented
anywhere (i'm sure it is, but I ended up working this out by trial end
error):
For RHEL5
# Add activation Keys - Otherwise hangs waiting for activation key
key --skip
For RHEL4
# Add System language - Otherwise hangs waiting for default language choice
lang en_US.UTF-8
langsupport --default=en_US.UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8
For RHEL3:
# Remove --onboot=on from the network line
# Remove selinux --disabled
# Add mouse:
mouse genericps/2 --device psaux --emulthree
I'll try to add some of this to the Wiki, but there doesent seem to be
an obvious place - any suggestions?

Duplicating a Golden Client
by Guy Tel-Zur
I would appreciate seeing an example how to duplicate an already installed
node (a "Golden Client")
and then PXE booting other nodes with the Golden Client image using Cobbler.
(I am familiar with "system-config-netboot", this tool relies on using
"rsync" first)
