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。
1. Cobbler介绍
Cobbler是一个Linux服务器安装的服务，可以通过网络启动(PXE)的方式来快速安装、重装物理服务器和虚拟机，同时还可以管理DHCP，DNS等。
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。
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。
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。
1.1 Cobbler集成的服务
PXE服务支持
DHCP服务管理
DNS服务管理(可选bind,dnsmasq)
电源管理
Kickstart服务支持
YUM仓库管理
TFTP(PXE启动时需要)
Apache(提供kickstart的安装源，并提供定制化的kickstart配置)
1.2 系统环境准备
[[email protected] ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 6.7 (Final) [[email protected] ~]# uname -r 2.6.32-573.el6.x86_64 [[email protected] ~]# getenforce Disabled [[email protected] ~]# /etc/init.d/iptables status iptables: Firewall is not running. [[email protected] ~]# ifconfig eth0|awk -F "[ :]+" ‘NR==2 {print $4}‘ 10.10.10.18 # 配置阿里云的epel源 [[email protected] ~]# wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo http://mirrors.aliyun.com/repo/epel-6.repo
注意：
虚拟机网卡采用NAT模式，不要使用桥接模式，因为稍后我们会搭建DHCP服务器，在同一局域网多个DHCP服务会有冲突。
VMware的NAT模式的dhcp服务也关闭，避免干扰。
2. Cobbler安装配置
2.1 安装Cobbler
[[email protected] ~]# yum install -y cobbler # 查看安装的文件，下面列出部分。 /etc/cobbler # 配置文件目录 /etc/cobbler/settings # cobbler主配置文件，这个文件是YAML格式，Cobbler是python写的程序。 /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 # 用于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
2.2 配置Cobbler
[[email protected] ~]# vim /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf ServerName 127.0.0.1:80 #更改此处以取消警告！ [[email protected] ~]# /etc/init.d/httpd start Starting httpd: [ OK ] [[email protected] ~]# /etc/init.d/xinetd start Starting xinetd: [ OK ] [[email protected] ~]# /etc/init.d/cobblerd start Starting cobbler daemon: [ OK ] [[email protected] ~]# cobbler check # 检查Cobbler的配置，如果看不到下面的结果，再次执行/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 : file /etc/xinetd.d/rsync does not exist 7 : debmirror package is not installed, it will be required to manage debian deployments and repositories 8 : ksvalidator was not found, install pykickstart 9 : 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 10 : 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. # 看着上面的结果，一个一个解决。 # 第1、2、9个问题，顺便修改其他功能 [[email protected] ~]# cp /etc/cobbler/settings{,.ori} # 备份 # server，Cobbler服务器的IP。 [[email protected] ~]# sed -i ‘s/server: 127.0.0.1/server: 10.10.10.18/‘ /etc/cobbler/settings # next_server，如果用Cobbler管理DHCP，修改本项，作用不解释，看kickstart。 [[email protected] ~]# sed -i ‘s/next_server: 127.0.0.1/next_server: 10.10.10.18/‘ /etc/cobbler/settings # 用Cobbler管理DHCP [[email protected] ~]# sed -i ‘s/manage_dhcp: 0/manage_dhcp: 1/‘ /etc/cobbler/settings # 防止循环装系统，适用于服务器第一启动项是PXE启动。 [[email protected] ~]# sed -i ‘s/pxe_just_once: 0/pxe_just_once: 1/‘ /etc/cobbler/settings # 用Cobbler管理rsync [[email protected] ~]# sed -i ‘s/manage_rsync: 0/manage_rsync: 1/‘ /etc/cobbler/settings # 设置新装系统的默认root密码123456。下面的命令来源于提示9。random-phrase-here为干扰码，可以自行设定。 [[email protected] ~]# openssl passwd -1 -salt ‘tank‘ ‘123456‘ $1$tank$Q5MsMJ53sjS0l5Rjzcmjo1 [[email protected] ~]# vim /etc/cobbler/settings default_password_crypted: "$1$tank$Q5MsMJ53sjS0l5Rjzcmjo1" #将生成的加密密码改之。 # 第4个问题 [[email protected] ~]# cobbler get-loaders # 会自动从官网下载 [[email protected] ~]# cd /var/lib/cobbler/loaders/ # 查看下载的内容 [[email protected] loaders]# ls COPYING.elilo COPYING.yaboot grub-x86_64.efi menu.c32 README COPYING.syslinux elilo-ia64.efi grub-x86.efi pxelinux.0 yaboot # 第3、5个问题 [[email protected] loaders]# vim /etc/xinetd.d/tftp disable = yes [[email protected] loaders]# vim /etc/xinetd.d/rsync disable = no [[email protected] loaders]# /etc/init.d/xinetd restart Stopping xinetd: [ OK ] Starting xinetd: [ OK ] # 第8个问题 [[email protected] loaders]# yum install -y pykickstart [[email protected] loaders]# /etc/init.d/cobblerd restart Stopping cobbler daemon: [ OK ] Starting cobbler daemon: [ OK ] [[email protected] loaders]# cobbler check The following are potential configuration items that you may want to fix: 1 : dhcpd is not installed 2 : file /etc/xinetd.d/rsync does not exist #此提示一直存在！！！ 3 : debmirror package is not installed, it will be required to manage debian deployments and repositories # 和debian系统相关，不需要 4 : fencing tools were not found, and are required to use the (optional) power management features. install cman or fence-agents to use them # 设备相关，不需要 Restart cobblerd and then run ‘cobbler sync‘ to apply changes.
2.3 配置DHCP
[[email protected] loaders]# yum install -y dhcp #配置DHCP # 修改cobbler的dhcp模版，不要直接修改dhcp本身的配置文件，因为cobbler会覆盖。 [[email protected] loaders]# vim /etc/cobbler/dhcp.template # 仅列出修改过的字段 …… subnet 10.10.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { option routers 10.10.10.2; option domain-name-servers 10.10.10.2; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; range dynamic-bootp 10.10.10.20 10.10.10.50;
2.4 同步cobbler配置
# 同步最新cobbler配置，它会根据配置自动修改dhcp等服务。 [[email protected] loaders]# cobbler sync # 同步所有配置，可以仔细看一下sync做了什么。 task started: 2016-03-19_221213_sync task started (id=Sync, time=Sat Mar 19 22:12:13 2016) running pre-sync triggers cleaning trees removing: /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default removing: /var/lib/tftpboot/grub/images removing: /var/lib/tftpboot/grub/efidefault removing: /var/lib/tftpboot/grub/grub-x86.efi removing: /var/lib/tftpboot/grub/grub-x86_64.efi removing: /var/lib/tftpboot/s390x/profile_list copying bootloaders trying hardlink /var/lib/cobbler/loaders/grub-x86.efi -> /var/lib/tftpboot/grub/grub-x86.efi trying hardlink /var/lib/cobbler/loaders/grub-x86_64.efi -> /var/lib/tftpboot/grub/grub-x86_64.efi copying distros to tftpboot copying images generating PXE configuration files generating PXE menu structure rendering DHCP files generating /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf rendering TFTPD files generating /etc/xinetd.d/tftp cleaning link caches rendering Rsync files running post-sync triggers running python triggers from /var/lib/cobbler/triggers/sync/post/* running python trigger cobbler.modules.sync_post_restart_services running: dhcpd -t -q received on stdout: received on stderr: running: service dhcpd restart received on stdout: Shutting down dhcpd: [ OK ] Starting dhcpd: [ OK ] received on stderr: running shell triggers from /var/lib/cobbler/triggers/sync/post/* running python triggers from /var/lib/cobbler/triggers/change/* running python trigger cobbler.modules.scm_track running shell triggers from /var/lib/cobbler/triggers/change/* *** TASK COMPLETE *** # 再看一下dhcp的配置文件。 [[email protected] loaders]# less /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf # ****************************************************************** # Cobbler managed dhcpd.conf file # generated from cobbler dhcp.conf template (Sat Mar 19 14:12:14 2016) # Do NOT make changes to /etc/dhcpd.conf.

3.4 安装系统
可以很愉快的告诉你到这里就可以安装系统了！
新建一台虚拟机，不解释，开机就可以看到下面的图片了！
有没有发现不美观的地方？
网址不是我的！改！
#修改Cobbler提示 [[email protected] kickstarts]# vim /etc/cobbler/pxe/pxedefault.template MENU TITLE Cobbler | http://tank_ke.io [[email protected] kickstarts]# cobbler sync # 修改配置都要同步
OK，现在好看多了。选择第二项就可以继续装机了。你可以让系统飞着，然后接着看下文！！
4. ks.cfg文件简析
文件大部分参数含义见kickstart文章，此处只讲一些不同的地方。同时可以参考模板文件。
