一、Cobbler简介:
Cobbler通过将设置和管理一个安装服务器所涉及的任务集中在一起,从而简化了系统配置。相当于Cobbler封装了DHCP、TFTP、XINTED等服务,结合了PXE、kickstart等安装方法,可以实现自动化安装操作系统,并且可以同时提供多种版本,以实现在线安装不同版本的系统。
1.1 cobbler相关服务
DHCP:DHCP(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol,动态主机配置协议)是一个局域网的网络协议,使用UDP协议工作, 主要有两个用途:给内部网络或网络服务供应商自动分配IP地址,给用户或者内部网络管理员作为对所有计算机作中央管理的手段。DHCP有3个端口,其中UDP67和UDP68为正常的DHCP服务端口,分别作为DHCP Server和DHCP Client的服务端口;546号端口用于DHCPv6 Client,而不用于DHCPv4,是为DHCP failover服务,这是需要特别开启的服务,DHCP failover是用来做“双机热备”的。
TFTP:TFTP是一种比较特殊的文件传输协议。相对于FTP和目前经常使用的SFTP,TFTP是基于TCP/IP协议簇,用于进行简单文件传输,提供简单、低开销的传输服务。TFTP的端口设置为69。
相对于常见的FTP,TFTP有两个比较好的优势:
1.TFTP基于UDP协议,如果环境中没有TCP协议,是比较合适的;
2.TFTP执行和代码占用内存量比较小;
默认情况下,Linux内部是安装了tftp服务器包的。但是默认是不启动的。
PXE:预启动执行环境(Preboot eXecution Environment,PXE,也被称为预执行环境)提供了一种使用网络接口(Network Interface)启动计算机的机制。这种机制让计算机的启动可以不依赖本地数据存储设备(如硬盘)或本地已安装的操作系统。
PXE当初是作为Intel的有线管理体系的一部分,Intel 和 Systemsoft于1999年9月20日公布其规格(版本2.1)[1]。通过使用像网际协议(IP)、用户数据报协议(UDP)、动态主机设定协定(DHCP)、小型文件传输协议(TFTP)等几种网络协议和全局唯一标识符(GUID)、通用网络驱动接口(UNDI)、通用唯一识别码(UUID)的概念并通过对客户机(通过PXE自检的电脑)固件扩展预设的API来实现目的。
二、交互过程:
1.裸机配置了从网络启动后,开机后会广播包请求DHCP服务器(cobbler server)发送其分配好的一个IP
2.DHCP服务器(cobbler server)收到请求后发送responese,包括其ip地址
3.裸机拿到ip后再向cobbler server发送请求OS引导文件的请求
4.cobbler server告诉裸机OS引导文件的名字和TFTP server的ip和port
5.裸机通过上面告知的TFTP server地址和port通信,下载引导文件
6.裸机执行执行该引导文件,确定加载信息,选择要安装的os,期间会再向cobbler server请求kickstart文件和os image
7.cobbler server发送请求的kickstart和os iamge
8.裸机加载kickstart文件
9.裸机接收os image,安装该os image
系统环境准备及其下载cobbler
2.1 系统环境
开启两个网卡。一个仅主机模式,一个桥接模式,主机模式对内提供cobbler服务。
[[email protected] ~]# ip a

系统版本:CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 (Core)
内网IP:192.168.182.128/24 #用来对内通信,提供cobbler服务
外网IP:192.168.4.190/24 #连接外网
2.2 关闭安全服务
[[email protected] ~]# systemctl stop firewalld #关闭防火墙
[[email protected] ~]# setenforce 0 #关闭selinux
2.3 下载cobbler及其所需服务程序
[[email protected] ~]# yum install cobbler dhcp tftp-server xinetd syslinux httpd -y
syslinux: 提供pxelinux.0这个文件 ,pxelinux.0引导文件引导vmlinux和initrd两个启动文件
yum安装cobbler需要使用下面两个源,大家可以复制下面的代码到自己的yum仓库保存即可
[epel]
name=epel
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
baseurl=https://mirrors.aliyun.com/epel/7/x86_64/
[centos]
name=centos base
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
baseurl=http://mirrors.163.com/centos/7/os/x86_64/
三、配置相关服务
第一步:配置DHCP服务
[[email protected] ~]# cat /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
subnet 192.168.182.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.182.150 192.168.182.155;
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
filename "pxelinux.0";
}
[[email protected] ~]# systemctl restart dhcpd
第二步:配置tftp
[[email protected] ~]# cat /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
# default: off
# description: The tftp server serves files using the trivial file transfer \
# protocol. The tftp protocol is often used to boot diskless \
# workstations, download configuration files to network-aware printers, \
# and to start the installation process for some operating systems.
service tftp
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -s /var/lib/tftpboot
disable = no #yes改为no
per_source = 11
cps = 100 2
flags = IPv4
}
[[email protected] ~]# systemctl restart xinetd
第三步:启动cobbler
[[email protected] ~]# systemctl status cobblerd
第四步:启动httpd
[[email protected] ~]# systemctl restart httpd
第五步:检查cobbler配置
[[email protected] ~]# 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 : 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.
4 : enable and start rsyncd.service with systemctl
5 : debmirror package is not installed, it will be required to manage debian deployments and repositories
6 : 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
7 : 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.
根据如上反馈,需要一一进行修改才能继续进行
修改配置文件/etc/cobbler/settings
问题一:
cobbler文件默认是127.0.0.1本地回环地址,需要更改为提供cobbler服务的ip地址 192.168.182.128,在384行
384 server: 192.168.182.128
问题二:
netx_server也是默认本地127.0.0.1回环地址,需要修改为提供cobbler服务的ip地址 192.163.182,128,在272行出
272 next_server: 192.168.182.128
问题三:
可以忽略
问题四:
启动rsync即可
[[email protected] ~]# systemctl restart rsyncd
[[email protected] ~]# systemctl enable rsyncd
问题五:
可以忽略
问题六:
更改密码
[[email protected] ~]# openssl passwd -1 -salt "123" "123456"
$1$123$7mft0jKnzzvAdU4t0unTG1
并把新生成的加密数据填写进/etc/cobbler/settings
101 default_password_crypted: “$1$123$7mft0jKnzzvAdU4t0unTG1”
问题七:
可以忽略
以上问题解决之后,需要同步和重启
[[email protected] ~]# systemctl restart cobblerd
[[email protected] ~]# cobbler sync
再次检查是否已经更改完成
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/rsyncd.service to /usr/lib/systemd/system/rsyncd.service.
[[email protected] ~]# cobbler check
The following are potential configuration items that you may want to fix:

Restart cobblerd and then run ‘cobbler sync‘ to apply changes.
已经更改完毕!
第六步:挂载光盘并进行数据导入
挂载光盘
[[email protected] ~]# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt
数据导入(需要一些时间)
[[email protected] ~]# cobbler import --path=/mnt --name="centos7.5"

distro : 发行版, 就是我们安装什么版本的linux操作系统的名称 一会我们会导入一个 distro.
profile : 类似于一个 配置文件,类似于你的 bash_profile, 里面包含你可以添加 kernel 参数,对应的kickstart 文件 以及 此profile 对应的 distro 等等.
第七步:准备kickstart文件
在root目录下找到ks文件,并移动到/var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/到目录下改名为ks.cfg
[[email protected] ~]# mv anaconda-ks.cfg /var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/ks.cfg

四、cobbler自动化安装测试
新建一个虚拟机,需要和cobbler服务器所在同一个虚拟网络中即与我们上面设置的cobbler服务器的主机模式。内存需要3个G以上。
