cobbler_web界面设置

Cobbler作为一个预备工具，使部署RedHat/Centos/Fedora系统更容易，同时也支持Suse和Debian系统的部署。

它提供以下服务集成：

* PXE服务支持

* DHCP服务管理

* DNS服务管理

* Kickstart服务支持

* yum仓库管理

Cobbler客户端Koan支持虚拟机安装和操作系统重新安装。

Cobbler服务器部署：

1、确保EPEL仓库可用，如果不可用先安装epel包：

rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm

2、安装cobbler server需要的的所有包：

yum install cobbler httpd rsync tftp-server xinetd dhcp

3、启动httpd和cobblerd，并设置为开机自启动：

/sbin/service httpd start

/sbin/service cobblerd start

/sbin/chkconfig httpd on

/sbin/chkconfig dhcpd on

/sbin/chkconfig xinetd on

/sbin/chkconfig tftp on

/sbin/chkconfig cobblerd on

4、检查cobbler相关配置：

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 : you need to set some SELinux content rules to ensure cobbler works correctly in your SELinux environment, run the following: /usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/tftpboot/.*" && \ /usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/www/cobbler/images/.*"

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.
