Cobbler是一个快速网络安装linux的服务，而且在经过调整也可以支持网络安装windows。该工具使用python开发，小巧轻便（才15k行代码），使用简单的命令即可完成PXE网络安装环境的配置，同时还可以管理DHCP，DNS，以及yum包镜像。

我用的系统是Centos6.5 64 位

配置epel yum源

我这用阿里云的epel

mv /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo.backup 
wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo http://mirrors.aliyun.com/repo/epel-6.repo

安装cobbler需要的服务

 
yum install dhcp tftp rsync xinetd httpd

关闭selinux和防火墙自己做测试为了不影响就关了

 
[root@i51 upimg]# setenforce 0
[root@i51 upimg]# service  iptables stop

安装cobbler并启动

 
[root@i51 yum.repos.d]# yum install cobbler -y
[root@i51 yum.repos.d]# /etc/init.d/cobblerd start
Starting cobbler daemon:                                   [  OK  ]
[root@i51 yum.repos.d]# /etc/init.d/httpd start
Starting httpd:

检查配置执行

 



[root@i51 ~]# cobbler check
Traceback (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)

    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‘">

报错了

经过网上查找这样解决如下：

*** TASK COMPLETE ***

在检查配置

[root@i51 ~]# cobbler check
The following are potential configuration items that you may want to fix:
 
: The ‘server‘ field in /etc/cobbler/settings must be set to something other than localhost, or kickstarting features will not work.  This should be a resolvable hostname or IP for the boot server as reachable by all machines that will use it.
: For PXE to be functional, the ‘next_server‘ field in /etc/cobbler/settings must be set to something other than 127.0.0.1, and should match the IP of the boot server on the PXE network.
: change ‘disable‘ to ‘no‘ in /etc/xinetd.d/rsync
: debmirror package is not installed, it will be required to manage debian deployments and repositories
: ksvalidator was not found, install pykickstart
: The default password used by the sample templates for newly installed machines (default_password_crypted in /etc/cobbler/settings) is still set to ‘cobbler‘ and should be changed, try: "openssl passwd -1 -salt ‘random-phrase-here‘ ‘your-password-here‘" to generate new one
: fencing tools were not found, and are required to use the (optional) power management features. install cman or fence-agents to use them
 
Restart cobblerd and then run ‘cobbler sync‘ to apply changes.

上面这段信息大意就是：

1，编辑/etc/cobbler/settings文件，找到 server选项，修改为适当的ip地址，本实例配置ip为：192.168.1.243

2，编辑/etc/cobbler/settings文件，找到 next_server选项，修改为适当的ip地址，本实例配置ip为：192.168.1.243

3，编辑/etc/xinetd.d/rsync文件，将文件中的disable字段的配置由yes改为no

4，提示说debmirror没安装。如果不是安装 debian之类的系统，此提示可以忽略，如果需要安装，下载地址为：

http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=debmirror

5，ksvalidator没有被发现，安装pykickstart

1	`[root@i51 ~]# yum install pykickstart`

6，修改cobbler用户的默认密码，可以使用如下命令生成密码，并使用生成后的密码替换/etc/cobbler/settings中的密码。生成密码命令：其中“random-phrase-here”为干扰码

openssl passwd -1 -salt ‘random-phrase-here‘ ‘your-password-here‘

7，fencing tools为找到安装

 
[root@i51 ~]# yum install fence-agents

OK再来执行检查

 
[root@i51 ~]# cobbler check
The following are potential configuration items that you may want to fix:
 
1 : The ‘server‘ field in /etc/cobbler/settings must be set to something other than localhost, or kickstarting features will not work.  This should be a resolvable hostname or IP for the boot server as reachable by all machines that will use it.
2 : For PXE to be functional, the ‘next_server‘ field in /etc/cobbler/settings must be set to something other than 127.0.0.1, and should match the IP of the boot server on the PXE network.
3 : debmirror package is not installed, it will be required to manage debian deployments and repositories
4 : The default password used by the sample templates for newly installed machines (default_password_crypted in /etc/cobbler/settings) is still set to ‘cobbler‘ and should be changed, try: "openssl passwd -1 -salt ‘random-phrase-here‘ ‘your-password-here‘" to generate new one
 
Restart cobblerd and then run ‘cobbler sync‘ to apply changes.

重启cobbler

 
[root@i51 ~]# /etc/init.d/cobblerd restart

Starting cobbler daemon:                                   [  OK  ]

cobbler使用导入安装文件

总体来说，在RHT/Centos 系列版本下，Cobbler的使用上不会遇到很大问题

Cobbler 主要的作用是，把DHCP 、Kickstart 的修改都集成在一个平台下做了管理

Cobbler 的精华其实是它启用了 Kickstart 配置模板，其中可以内嵌python代码

这部分技术，Cobbler叫做：snippets

在RHT/Centos 系列中，官方已经提供了不少这些代码，基本上调用一下就可以了，而Ubuntu下就非常的痛苦，必须自己开发（这部分的配置暂且不表，后续有专门篇幅来介绍 )

以下是相关配置路径(默认安装) :

Cobbler 配置主要位置：/var/lib/cobbler/ （实际操作和配置的目录 )

snippets 代码位置：/var/lib/cobbler/snippets/

Kickstart 模板位置 : /var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/

安装源镜像位置 : /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/ （把它link到apache的发布目录，方便kickstart 工作时通过http下载安装镜像文件 )

导入安装源

准备好安装光盘 (ISO)我的服务器上有这么多

 



[root@i51 Soft]# cd 镜像
像[root@i51 镜像]# ls

像[root@i51 镜像]# pwd
/var/ftp/pub/Soft/镜像

挂载 ISO

 
[root@i51 镜像]# mkdir /mnt/Centos6.5
像[root@i51 镜像]# mount -o loop CentOS-6.5-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso /mnt/Centos6.5/

导入安装源到Cobbler中

通过这个环节， Cobbler 会把安装的镜像ISO 拷贝到源安装镜像目录下: /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/

操作命令如下:

 



[root@i51 镜像]# cobbler import --path=/mnt/Centos6.5 --name=CentOS6.5 --arch=x86_64
task started: 2014-10-23_134307_import

Keeping repodata as-is :/var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/CentOS6.5-x86_64/repodata
*** TASK COMPLETE ***

参数说明:

--name 为安装源定义一个名字

--arch 指定安装源是32位还是64位、ia64, 目前支持的选项有: x86│x86_64│ia64

注意：这个安装源的唯一标示就是根据这两个参数来定义

本例导入成功后，安装源的唯一标示就是：centos6.3-x86_64 ，如果重复，系统会提示导入失败

更多用法，可以查看官方文档: man cobbler ,然后查找 import 的配置

相关管理命令:

//查看导入源库列表

 
[root@i51 镜像]# cobbler distro list
   CentOS6.5-x86_64

配置dhcp服务

首先修改cobbler配置，让cobbler来管理dhcp服务，编辑文件/etc/cobbler/settings

manage_dhcp: 1

接下来修改/etc/cobbler/dhcp.template，此文件是cobbler管理dhcp的模板

本例中只需要修改如下部分

subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
     option routers             192.168.1.1;
     option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
     option subnet-mask         255.255.255.0;
     range dynamic-bootp        192.168.1.30 192.168.1.80;
     default-lease-time         21600;
     max-lease-time             43200;
     next-server                $next_server;
     class "pxeclients" {
          match if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient";
          if option pxe-system-type = 00:02 {
                  filename "ia64/elilo.efi";
          } else if option pxe-system-type = 00:06 {
                  filename "grub/grub-x86.efi";
          } else if option pxe-system-type = 00:07 {
                  filename "grub/grub-x86_64.efi";
          } else {
                  filename "/pxelinux.0";
          }
     }
 
}

IP地址段根据你实际环境中的给定

其他可以不用改

重启xinetd

 
[root@i51 镜像]# /etc/init.d/xinetd restart
Stopping xinetd:                                           [  OK  ]
Starting xinetd:                                           [  OK  ]

同步cobbler配置

cobbler sync

输出如下

cobbler会自动进行初始化工作，移除已经存在的启动项，然后根据模板拷贝loader文件。之后再生成pxe的配置文件，生成dhcp的配置文件，最后再重启dhcp服务。
至此，就可以使用虚拟机来测试cobbler安装了。

OK开启真机或者虚拟机来测试注意开启网络引导网卡要开启PXE 引导程序

测试如下

登陆后如下默认root密码为cobbler

# 在要重装的机器安装koan  
yum install koan  
#查看cobbler服务器有哪些安装盘  
koan --list-profiles --server=192.168.1.243  
#选择要重装的系统并重启  
koan --replace-self --server=192.168.1.243 --profile=CentOS-5-4-x86-64  
reboot
