篇首语：本文由小常识网(cha138.com)小编为大家整理，主要介绍了Cobbler无人值守安装相关的知识，希望对你有一定的参考价值。

前言：建议在看Cobbler之前先看一下使用kickstart + pxe 部署无人值守安装无人值守安装，了解一下Cobbler的实现原理。但是Cobbler是独立的，不需要先安装Kickstart然后再安装Cobbler。

1、Cobbler简介：
　　Cobbler 官网：http://cobbler.github.io

  1. 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python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、TFTP、RSYNC以及yum仓库、构造系统ISO镜像。
  2. Cobbler客户端Koan支持虚拟机安装和操作系统重新安装，使重装系统更便捷。
  3. Cobbler可以使用命令行方式管理，也提供了基于Web的界面管理工具(cobbler-web)，还提供了API接口，可以方便二次开发使用。
  4. Cobbler是较早前的kickstart的升级版，优点是比较容易配置，还自带web界面比较易于管理。
  5. Cobbler内置了一个轻量级配置管理系统，但它也支持和其它配置管理系统集成，如Puppet，暂时不支持SaltStack。 Cobbler 支持众多的发行版：Red
  6.  Cobbler 支持众多的发行版：Red  Hat、Fedora、CentOS、Debian、Ubuntu 和 SuSE。当添加一个操作系统（通常通过使用 ISO 文件）时，Cobbler 知道如何解压缩合适的文件 并调整网络服务，以正确引导机器。

1.1 Cobbler集成的服务

  • PXE服务支持
  • DHCP服务管理
  • DNS服务管理
  • 电源管理
  • Kickstart服务支持
  • YUM仓库管理
  • TFTP
  • Apache（提供Kickstart的安装源，并提供定制化的kickstart配置） 

2、基础环境说明：

[[email protected] ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 6.9 (Final)
[[email protected] ~]# uname -r
2.6.32-696.28.1.el6.x86_64
[[email protected] ~]# getenforce
Disabled
[[email protected] ~]# hostname -I
10.0.0.200 172.16.1.200

 3、安装Cobbler

[[email protected] ~]# wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo http://mirrors.aliyun.com/repo/epel-6.repo     #需要用到epel源

[[email protected] ~]# yum install cobbler cobbler-web pykickstart httpd dhcp tftp xinetd 
报错：Error: Package: cobbler-web-2.6.11-6.git95749a6.el6.noarch (epel)Requires: Django >= 1.4You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
[[email protected] ~]# yum -y install python-simplejson
[[email protected] ~]# wget https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/Django14/1.4.14/1.el6/noarch/Django14-1.4.14-1.el6.noarch.rpm
[[email protected] ~]# rpm -ivh Django14-1.4.14-1.el6.noarch.rpm
[[email protected] ~]# yum -y install cobbler cobbler-web pykickstart httpd dhcp tftp xinetd 

需要注意的是我们虚拟机需要采用NAT模式，不要使用桥接模式，应为我们需要搭建DHCP服务器，在同一个局域网多个DHCP服务器会起冲突。

 

3.1 Cobbler安装完成后的配置文件：

/etc/cobbler                   # 配置文件目录

/etc/cobbler/settings         # cobbler主配置文件

/etc/cobbler/dhcp.template    # DHCP服务的配置模板

/etc/cobbler/tftpd.template  # tftp服务的配置模板

/etc/cobbler/rsync.template # rsync服务的配置模板

/etc/cobbler/iso              # iso模板配置文件目录

/etc/cobbler/pxe              # pxe模板文件目录

/etc/cobbler/power            # 电源的配置文件目录

/etc/cobbler/users.conf       # Web服务授权配置文件

/etc/cobbler/users.digest     # web访问的用户名密码配置文件

/etc/cobbler/dnsmasq.template # DNS服务的配置模板

/etc/cobbler/modules.conf     # Cobbler模块配置文件

/var/lib/cobbler               # Cobbler数据目录

/var/lib/cobbler/config       # 配置文件

/var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts  # 默认存放kickstart文件

/var/lib/cobbler/loaders      # 存放的各种引导程序

/var/www/cobbler               # 系统安装镜像目录

/var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror    # 导入的系统镜像列表

/var/www/cobbler/images       # 导入的系统镜像启动文件

/var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror  # yum源存储目录

/var/log/cobbler               # 日志目录

/var/log/cobbler/install.log  # 客户端系统安装日志

/var/log/cobbler/cobbler.log  # cobbler日志
[[email protected] cobbler]# /etc/init.d/cobblerd start        #启动cobbler程序
Starting cobbler daemon:                                   [  OK  ]
[[email protected] ~]# cobbler check           #检查Cobbler的配置，如果有报错的执行一下/etc/init.d/cobblerd restart
    
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 : change ‘disable‘ to ‘no‘ in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
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.
5 : change ‘disable‘ to ‘no‘ in /etc/xinetd.d/rsync
6 : debmirror package is not installed, it will be required to manage debian deployments and repositories
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
8 : 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.

 

我们需要逐一解决上面check出来的问题：

[[email protected] ~]# cp /etc/cobbler/settings{,.bak}   #先备份下
[[email protected] ~]# sed -i ‘s/server: 127.0.0.1/server: 10.0.0.200/‘ /etc/cobbler/settings               #Cobbler服务器的IP
[[email protected] ~]# sed -i ‘s/next_server: 127.0.0.1/next_server: 10.0.0.200/‘ /etc/cobbler/settings     #告知客户端TFTP服务器IP
[[email protected] ~]# sed -i ‘s/manage_dhcp: 0/manage_dhcp: 1/‘ /etc/cobbler/settings　　　　　　　　　　      #用Cobbler来管理DHCP

[[email protected] ~]# openssl passwd -1 -salt ‘Template‘ ‘123456‘            #设置新装系统默认的root密码123456  random-phrase-here为干扰码，可自定

  • cobbler check 核对当前设置是否有问题
  • cobbler list 列出所有的cobbler元素
  • cobbler report 列出元素的详细信息
  • cobbler sync 同步配置到数据目录，更改配置最好要执行下
  • cobbler reposync 同步yum仓库
  • cobbler distro 查看导入的发行版系统信息
  • cobbler system 查看添加的系统信息
  • cobbler profile 查看配置信息

[[email protected] kickstarts]# cobbler profile edit --name=CentOS-6.9-x86_64 --kickstart=/var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/CentOS-6.9-x86_64.cfg 

#如果是安装CentOS7系统的话，为了标准化，我们最好将网卡名修改一下，改为eth0 可以加上  --kopts=‘net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0‘ 参数

[[email protected] kickstarts]# cobbler sync          #每次修改完都同步一下

好了，现在我们就可以安装系统了

 5、安装系统

新建一台虚拟机，开机就可以看到如下界面了

技术分享图片

如果觉得顶上的网址不好看，可以自定义修改

 

[[email protected] ~]# vim /etc/cobbler/pxe/pxedefault.template 
  3 MENU TITLE Cobbler | http://www.cnblogs.com/Template/              #将网址改成我博客的地址了 
[[email protected] ~]# cobbler sync

技术分享图片

网址已经变成了我的博客地址

 

6、定制化安装

有时候我们可能需要制定某台服务器使用制定的ks文件，kickstart实现这个功能可能比较复杂，但是cobbler就很简单了。区分一台服务器最简单的方法就是网卡的mac地址。

我们可以指定某一mac地址的服务器使用指定的ks文件。

[[email protected] ~]# cobbler system add --name=Template --mac=00:0C:29:37:3B:D6 --profile=CentOS-6.9-x86_64 --ip-address=10.0.0.102 --subnet=255.255.255.0 --gateway=10.0.0.2 --interface=eth0 --static=1 --name-servers="1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8"

#--name 自定义但不能重复
#查看定义列表

[[email protected] ~]# cobbler system list
Template

[[email protected] ~]# cobbler sync

再次开机安装就不再询问选择了，直接安装。

7、Cobbler的web管理界面安装与配置

访问网址：http://10.0.0.200/cobbler_web  或 https://10.0.0.200/cobbler_web

默认用户名：cobbler 
默认密码 ：cobbler

技术分享图片

/etc/cobbler/users.conf       # Web服务授权配置文件
/etc/cobbler/users.digest     # 用于web访问的用户名密码配置文件
[[email protected] kickstarts]# htdigest /etc/cobbler/users.digest "Cobbler" cobbler #修改web登录密码
改完之后需要cobbler sync 一下 然后重启httpd和cobblerd
