Figure 18 New autoinstall logical group

After the autoinstall logical group is created, the HP Insight CMU image directory contains a new directory with the name of the logical group. This directory contains:

autoinst.tmpl.orig—An exact copy of the autoinstall file.

repository—A logical link to the autoinstall repository.

For example:

#ls -l /opt/cmu/image/rh5u5_autoinstall/ total 4

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1313 Oct 11 13:48 autoinst.tmpl-orig

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root

31 Oct

11 13:48 repository ->

/data/repositories/rh5u5_x86_64

 

4.2.4.3Registering compute nodes

To enable autoinstall, a compute node must be registered in the autoinstall logical group. Registration is the same as registering a normal HP Insight CMU logical group.

4.2.4.4Autoinstall compute nodes

When you start autoinstall on a compute node, the following files are created:

autoinst.tmpl-cmu—A copy of your autoinstall file with additional directives required by HP Insight CMU.

autoinst-[compute_node_hostname]—The autoinstall template with hard-codednode-specific information.

pxelinux_template—The pxelinux boot parameter file template for this logical group.

pxelinux-[compute_node_hostname]—The pxelinux boot parameter file for a specific node.

For example:

#ls -l /opt/cmu/image/rh5u5_autoinstall/total 24

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2881 Oct 11 15:38 autoinst-node1

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2861 Oct 11 15:38 autoinst.tmpl-cmu -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1313 Oct 11 15:35 autoinst.tmpl-orig
