Cobbler
1、Cobbler是一个linux安装服务器,他能实现网络安装环境下的快速安装
基于Python开发的
2、适用于大规模安装linux操作系统,不同版本的操作系统,同一版本又不同的配置
Cobber基于DHCP、PXE、TFTP、HTTP、Kickstart的技术,来提供统一的对外服务,另外还有Cobbler Web界面,不过Cobbler CLI已经满足大部分人需求,本节Cobbler Web不做研究,下节有个简单的Web实际用法。
3、另外Cobbler还可以作为一个本地yum仓库,利用reposync
Cobbler工作机制
- client客户端配置了从网络启动后,开机会广播请求DHCP服务器(cobbler server)发送其分配好的一个IP
- DHCP服务器接收到请求后发送responese,包括其IP地址
- clinet裸机拿到ip后,再向cobbler server 发送请求,OS引导文件的请求
- cobbler server 返回给客户端OS引导文件的名字和TFTP服务器的ip和port
- 客户端通过cobbler返回的信息,通过地址找到TFTP服务器,下载引导文件
- 客户端通过该引导文件,确定加载信息,选择要安装的系统,期间会再向cobbler server请求应答文件
- 客户端加载应答文件,通过应答文件的配置来完成相关操作

实验:Cobbler 自动化部署系统
主机信息
服务器:centos7
网卡: 仅主机,192.168.146.10
桥接: dhcp
安装服务:cobbler dhcp tftp-server pykickstart httpd准备工作
systemctl disable firewalld centos7开机不自启防火墙 systemctl stop firewalld centos7停止防火墙 service iptables stop centos6关闭iptables service iptables enable centos6开机不自启iptables sed -i "s/SELINUX=SELINUX=enforcing/SELINUX=disabled/g" /etc/selinux/config 修改selinux配置文件 reboot 重启生效 关闭虚拟机VM本地dhcp服务,防止和我们安装的dhcp发生冲突 yum install cobbler dhcp tftp-server pykickstart httpd -y 安装本实验需要的软件包
安装Cobbler
yum install cobbler -y systemctl start cobbler systemctl enable cobbler
修改配置文件
cobbler check 检查cobbler配置文件
当我们执行这条命令后,通常会报以下8条错误,我们一条条修改即可会出现如下错误:
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.
384 # of the manpage for how that works
server 192.168.146.10``
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.
272 # if you do not set this correctly, this will be manifested in TFTP open timeouts.
next_server 192.168.146.10
3 : change ‘disable‘ to ‘no‘ in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
vim /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
disable =disable改为no
4 : Some network boot-loaders are missing from /var/lib/cobbler/loaders, you may run ‘cobbler get-loaders‘ to download them, or, if you only want to handle x86/x86_64 netbooting, you may ensure that you have installed a recent version of the syslinux package installed and can ignore this message entirely. Files in this directory, should you want to support all architectures, should include pxelinux.0, menu.c32, elilo.efi, and yaboot. The ‘cobbler get-loaders‘ command is the easiest way to resolve these requirements.
如果当前节点可以访问互联网,执行“cobbler get-loaders”命令即可;
cobbler get-loaders 下载bootloader 加载程序
否则,需要安装syslinux程序包,而后复制
/usr/share/syslinux/{pxelinux.0,memu.c32}等文件至
/var/lib/cobbler/loaders/目录中
5 : enable and start rsyncd.service with systemctl
systemctl enable rsyncd
systemctl start rsyncd
6 : debmirror package is not installed, it will be required to manage debian deployments and repositories
可以忽略
7 : 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
--这个配置文件在101行
-- openssl passwd -1
#and put the output between the "" below.
必须要修改这个文件,cobbler check 会报错
default_password_crypted: "$1$3pHPXQL8$VxaAapUajtxI0X610meBl/"
8 : fencing tools were not found, and are required to use the (optional) power management features. install cman or fence-agents to use them
可忽略
Restart cobblerd and then run ‘cobbler sync‘ to apply changes.
修改完以上6个配置后,可执行 cobbler sync 命令
配置cobbler-DHCP
修改cobbler配置
vim /etc/cobbler/settings 将dhcp服务由cobbler托管
仅修改以下配置文件
导入安装源文件
首先挂载光盘
mount /dev/sr0 /mnt/centos7/ 挂载CentOS7镜像文件
mount /dev/sr1 /mnt/centos6/ 挂载CentOS6镜像文件
导入光盘
cobbler import --name=CentOS6.10 --path=/mnt/centos6 --arch=x86_64
cobbler import --name=CentOS7.6 --path=/mnt/centos7 --arch=x86_64
--name 为安装源定义一个名字
--path 镜像文件路径
--arch 安装源的架构
centos7
cneots6
安装源的唯一标识就是name参数定义的,以上面为例。导入后唯一标识就是
生成kickstart文件
制作kickstart
基于epel源,安装system-config-kickstart程序包
yum install system-config-kickstart
基于图形化界面来制作kickstart文件
也可以参考当前主机上的应答模板文件 /root/anaconda-ks.cfg
制作完kickstart文件后,建议检查一下语法错误
cobbler validateks
修改kickstart
将原来的配置修改文 url --url="$tree"
导入kickstart文件
将制作好的kickstart文件导入到/var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/(默认存放kickstart文件) 目录下
cp /data/ks7_mini.cfg /var/lib/cobbler/kickstart/
cp /data/ks6_mini.cfg /var/lib/cobbler/kickstart/
将ks文件和系统关联,生成启动菜单
cobbler profile edit --name Centos7.6-x86_64 --kickstart=/var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/ks7_mini.cfg
cobbler profile edit --name Centos6.10-x86_64 --kickstart=/var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/ks6_mini.cfg
我们还可以修改CentOS7的默认网卡名称
cobbler profile edit --name Centos7.6-x86_64 --kopts=‘net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0‘
同步cobbler
cobbler sync
结尾工作
systemctl restart httpd
systemctl restart dhcpd
systemctl restart tftp
systemctl restart cobblerd
systemctl restart xinetd.service
如有错误或不清晰的地方,请各位指正。
