Hi,
Fist of all, this is great tools. good job, guys.
Well, I have a question about "$yum_repo_stanza" and
"$yum_config_stanza" on a kickstart template file.
I went through the following steps:
1. Install cobbler.
2. Check and setup.
3. Import distro from CentOS5 DVD-ROM.
# cobbler import --mirror=/mnt/cdrom --name="centos5"
2 distros and 2 profiles were automatically added.
# cobbler report
distro : centos5-i386
kernel : /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos5/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz
initrd :
/var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos5/images/pxeboot/initrd.img
kernel options : {}
architecture : x86
ks metadata : {'tree': 'http://@@server@@/cblr/links/centos5-i386'}
breed : redhat
distro : centos5-xen-i386
kernel : /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos5/images/xen/vmlinuz
initrd : /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos5/images/xen/initrd.img
kernel options : {}
architecture : x86
ks metadata : {'tree': 'http://@@server@@/cblr/links/centos5-xen-i386'}
breed : redhat
profile : centos5-i386
distro : centos5-i386
kickstart : /etc/cobbler/kickstart_fc6.ks
kernel options : {}
ks metadata : {}
virt file size : 5
virt ram : 512
virt type : auto
virt path :
repos : []
profile : centos5-xen-i386
distro : centos5-xen-i386
kickstart : /etc/cobbler/kickstart_fc6.ks
kernel options : {}
ks metadata : {}
virt file size : 5
virt ram : 512
virt type : auto
virt path :
repos : []
4. Then, checked kickstart files in /var/www/cobbler/kickstarts/centos5-i386
# cat /var/www/cobbler/kickstarts/centos5-i386/ks.cfg
---
repo --name=centos5
--baseurl=http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos5
repo --name=centos5
--baseurl=http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos5
repo --name=centos5
--baseurl=http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/cobbler/ks_mirror/centos5
---
5. Also, modified /var/lib/cobbler/settings, changed
"yum_core_mirror_from_server" to "1",
and sync. $yum_config_stanza was replaced like this.
# cat /var/www/cobbler/kickstarts/centos5-i386/ks.cfg
---
wget http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/cobbler/ks_mirror/config/centos5-i386-0.repo
--output-document=/etc/yum.repos.d/centos5-i386-0.repo
wget http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/cobbler/ks_mirror/config/centos5-i386-1.repo
--output-document=/etc/yum.repos.d/centos5-i386-1.repo
wget http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxcobbler/ks_mirror/config/centos5-i386-2.repo
--output-document=/etc/yum.repos.d/centos5-i386-2.repo
---
There are 3 repo setting files for i386 in /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/config
# ls /var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror/config
centos5-i386-0.repo
centos5-i386-1.repo
centos5-i386-2.repo
And, each content of those file is almost same.
# diff centos5-i386-0.repo centos5-i386-1.repo
1,2c1,2
< [core-0]
< name=core-0
---
> [core-1]
> name=core-1
I checked action_import.py and found something seemed to relate this.
-----
# write a yum config file that shows how to use the repo.
if counter == 0:
dotrepo = "%s.repo" % distro.name
else:
dotrepo = "%s-%s.repo" % (distro.name, counter)
-----
I think this is not harmless, but does mean nothing.
But I don't know about python and I am not sure what this means.
What does this means?
