On "myserver1" I mounted CentOS-5.3-x86_64-bin-DVD.iso on /media and
NFS exported /media.
I also make /media available via Apache -
http://myserver1/media/
Then I ran the following on "myserver2", which has cobbler installed.
# mkdir -p /distros/CentOS-5.3/x86_64
# cobbler import --path=/distros/CentOS-5.3/x86_64 --arch=x86_64
--name=CentOS-5.3-x86_64 \
--available-as=nfs://myserver1:/media
or
# cobbler import --path=/distros/CentOS-5.3/x86_64 --arch=x86_64
--name=CentOS-5.3-x86_64 \
--available-as=http://myserver1/media
I get the following output:
---------------- (adding distros)
---------------- (associating kickstarts)
But, when I run the following:
# cobbler list
There's no output!!!!
Isn't this supposed to make the distro available for use?
I'd like to add the distro (CentOS-5.3-x86_64-bin-DVD.iso) but I don't
want to copy the contents over.
Seems like "import" only works if things get copied locally?
Can cobbler work without having the distro locally on the cobbler server?
