Using mirror
Hi to all members of this list!
I'm really new to Cobbler and trying to build up a stateless linux
server. Within my network infrastructure is a Fedora mirror that I mean
to use with Cobbler, if it's possible. I'm trying to understend the
concept and all the settings one must set in order to all that work.
First of all, it would be nice to see some guide on /etc/cobbler/setting
file, although many things are selfexplanatory I would still appreciate
some howto that would go into deep with all the possibilities. On the
other side, can i use somehow my existing Fedora mirror for cobbler
import? What I meant is to run a command like this:
cobbler import --mirror=/tmp/F9 --name=F9
--available-as=ftp://my.mirror.net/linux/fedora/releases/9/fedora/i386/
When this command is executed, all I get is:
----------- (adding distros)
----------- (associating kickstarts)
----------- (syncing)
If I run cobbler report afterwards, see nothing. Is this the way it
should be? The idea is to use existing mirror instead of copying data
onto server. Is this the way it should be done?
Thank you for your answer in advance!
