Seems the issue with firewall but not MAC.

The client was identify the cobbler server and it was keep loading the image..
At the same time i monitored the network usage by using System Monitor and
I have noticed that the client was stop loading the image when the 'Total Sent'
of system monitor reached to  1.5GB mark but the ISO was around 3.9GB.

i have tested 700MB image but it was successfully loaded but could not boot well
due to a kernel panic.

I have copied cobbler check and sync result (no errors) and dhcp config and the way i issued the cobler add distro.
I think i was not issuing correct commands.

Please tell me what should i do for run the cobbler server  to install systems with a LiveDVD ISO image.

Moreover, No, I did not set MAC addresses any where.

Danishka,

How complete is your cobbler install ? Does the cobblerd service start ?  When you run "cobbler sync" does it generate errors? Also try "cobbler check", it gives some hints about what might not be fully setup.

Have you added a distribution to cobbler? (imported Fedora 17 from the DVD into cobbler).

Have you added the systems and specified the MAC addresses?

I don't think that the RAM is your problem, I am running a server with 4GB had it has around 3GB still free.

Subject: [cobbler] Deploying cobbler server

Hi,

I have configured a cobbler on a Fedora 17 (x86_64) based system with 2GB of RAM.

But none of systems where not booted from the network.

I wanted to use cobbler to install a school lab had only CD ROMs, but my installation media was LiveDVD image of 4GB.

I have used livecd-iso-to-pxeboot as well.

Do I need more than 2GB RAM for the cobbler server?

As I remember error was a timeout. ( can't remember exactly and at that time i was in a remote site where the school runs without internet facilities)


Highly appreciate your help.


Thanks,
