Imaging Computers

The basic process (for 1 to ~50 computers):

  • Prep
  • Imaging
    • clear out stale config files
      [root@drbl ~]# rm /tftpboot/nbi_image/pxelinux.cfg/80*
    • run dcs command

      [root@drbl ~]# dcs

      on DRBL, starting an interactive series of questions

    • use ether-wake, or equivalent script, to wake computer

    • monitor /var/log/messages on DRBL to see if all computers connect

    • imaging happens (~30 -- ~50 min)

    • computer shuts down (this is an optional, but highly recommended, setting in dcs)
