I wish to provision several virtual clients on a single virtual server.
Tried the following:
cobbler system add --name=test1 --profile=centos-5.3-xen-x86_64
--virt-type=xenpv --ip=192.168.62.75 --static=yes
--subnet=255.255.254.0 --gateway=192.168.62.40 --virt-cpus=2
--virt-ram=4096
cobbler system add --name=test2 --profile=centos-5.3-xen-x86_64
--virt-type=xenpv --ip=192.168.62.76 --static=yes
--subnet=255.255.254.0 --gateway=192.168.62.40 --virt-cpus=2
--virt-ram=4096
cobbler system add --name=test3 --profile=centos-5.3-xen-x86_64
--virt-type=xenpv --ip=192.168.62.77 --static=yes
--subnet=255.255.254.0 --gateway=192.168.62.40 --virt-cpus=2
--virt-ram=4096
On the virtual server:
koan --server=admin --virt --system=test1
koan --server=admin --virt --system=test2
koan --server=admin --virt --system=test3
Discovered failures during testing -- which eventually were traced to
the exhaustion of all available DHCP client leases.
Specifying the MAC address of the physical host fails. If I pick some
other MAC address, how do I avoid picking one already in use?
Is there a way to tell koan to begin the kickstart using a specified
IP address, instead of acquiring the initial address via DHCP?
