Create a New Client using the opsi-client-bootcd

[aszykmat]

Hello,
When I try install system by opsi-client-bootcd and authorize by second depot-server that bootimage connect to primary depot server for download Windows.

Authorize is in second depot but add client to primary depot server (config server).

My OPSI servers:
1. Config Server
2. Master Depot Server
3. Master Depot Server

Can I force second repository ?

Hi,

the client is created with default settings and they usually point to the master depot.

It should work the create the client in the configed, move it to your depot and then start from CD.


Kind regards

Hi,
In future It's possible add the input with change depot master for client ?

Hi Mateusz,

In future It's possible add the input with change depot master for client ?

Why not?
I created an internal ticket for that.
No due date but may come in the future. As usual things that are important for you can be given higher priority through a support contract.


Kind regards

Hi Niko,
Good news !
The feature make it easier without login to control panel.

Source of opsi-client-bootcd is available in git or SVN ?

Unfortunately not.
But you can extract the bootimage (with cpio) and then edit the master.py in there.
I've posted the commands somewhere in the forums iirc. If you want them and don't find them let me know and I'll look


Kind regards

Hi Niko,
I tried find some information about select depot during netboot installation but I can't find
Only I have found information about select config depot in bootcd.

Tomorrow I will work with master.py

If you want to unpack the bootimage unpack the bz2 first and then

Code: Alles auswählen

cpio -idmv < FILE 

best to do this in a seperate folder
If you made your changes and want to get a miniroot again type this command

Code: Alles auswählen

find . | grep -v miniroot.bz2 | cpio -o -H newc | bzip2 > miniroot.bz2

Cheers
Mathias
