cobbler
cobbler简介
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。
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)

The following are potential configuration items that you may want to fix:
1: SELinux is enabled. Please review the following wiki page for details on ensuring Cobbler works correctly in your SELinux environment:
https://github.com/cobbler/cobbler/wiki/Selinux
2: some network boot-loaders are missing from /var/lib/cobbler/loaders. 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, and yaboot.
3: reposync is not installed, install yum-utils or dnf-plugins-core
4: yumdownloader is not installed, install yum-utils or dnf-plugins-core
5: debmirror package is not installed, it will be required to manage debian deployments and repositories
6: 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.
问题1解决办法:
[root@localhost ~]# yum -y install syslinux*
[root@localhost ~]# cp /usr/share/syslinux/pxelinux.0 /var/lib/cobbler/loaders/
[root@localhost ~]# cp /usr/share/syslinux/menu.c32 /var/lib/cobbler/loaders/
[root@localhost ~]# ls /var/lib/cobbler/loaders/
menu.c32 pxelinux.0
问题2和问题3解决办法
[root@localhost ~]# yum -y install yum-utils
问题4和问题5可以忽略,
因为是debian系统才需要解决,显示使用的是centos8
Debian系统解决办法安装fence-agents
