Olivier,

Finally had a chance to test from a client running beta8 to a server 
running beta8. Both client and server are running rhel 6.4 x86_64.
- I prepared the images as both uyok and without and both worked. No 
problem with the getimage from the server.
- I then attempted to load the client with the image I had created. I 
attempted this with both the standard kernel and the uyok. 
  Both worked up to the point in the script when lvcreate was executed. At 
this point the load/system would hang(reset required).
  See the log below. To restore I loaded from a server running a slightly 
older version( systemimager-server-4.3.0-0.2.el6.noarch)
  which did not have this problem.

Also note for reasons I have stated in the past I also modified 
UseYourOwnKernel.pm as follows :

/usr/lib/systemimager/perl/SystemImager/UseYourOwnKernel.pm

Olivier, 

Thanks. That does it. I still need to test loading the image. I will let 
you know.

[sisuite-users] beta7 bug fixed => beta8 WAS: systemimager 4.3.0-0.7 
available for testing

Hi, 

The issue has been fixed. 
I wonder how it could work on V0.2. There were 2 bugs: 
One that I introduced when I wanted to match kernel 3.x kernels with x >2 
But there was also a bug in initrd detection. the routine was unable to 
check for initramfs files. If no initrd file was available, the error 
should have triggered as well.... 

Anyway, 

It's hopefully fixed and should be available shortly for fedora, rhel-6 
and debian-7-x86_64 soon here: 
http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/repos/unstable/ 

The source rpm (and tarball) will be available here soon as well: 
http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/pkgs/downloads/

Hi, 

Thanks a lot for this report, I'll try to understand the issue ASAP. 
0.2 has the same code as 0.7 (differences are on the initrd and boot 
packages which are very different). 

Regards, 

Olivier.

Olivier,  

I installed on a rhel 6.4 client and get the below error message when 
attempting to prepare the client. If I install  
4.3.0-0.2 this does not happen.

systemimager-common-4.3.0-0.7.el6.noarch
systemimager-x86_64initrd_template-4.3.0-0.7.el6.noarch 
systemimager-client-4.3.0-0.7.el6.noarch  

- same error on vccs3 using --no-uyok and without - We get :  
  - [root@mtl-vccs03d ~]# si_prepareclient --no-uyok --server 
165.115.83.125  

...  

This client is ready to have its image retrieved.  You must now run  
the "si_getimage" command on your imageserver.  

Automatically create configuration file for systemconfigurator:
  >> /etc/systemconfig/systemconfig.conf  
WARNING: unable to auto-detect kernel file!

Olivier,  

 Thanks ! I will download and test on rhel 6.x).  BTW I am currently using 
your previous build(4.3.0-0.2 std kernel only) on rhel 6.x with the 
restrictions
 we have corresponded about.

[sisuite-users] systemimager 4.3.0-0.7 available for testing

Hi,  

I've uploaded the rpms for systemimager beta version V4.3.0 (beta7)  

I've built it for fedora-17 and centos-6.3  
They are available here: 
 http://olivier.lahaye1.free.fr/OSCAR/repos/unstable/ 

Note that you can install the oscar-release rpm which will setup the 
yum.repo.d/oscar.repo.  

Usage notes:  
- The pre install script required to modprobe disk controlers is not 
required anymore. (leave comments in it)  
- the post install scripts (si_scripts.tar.bz2) are usefull for grub setup 
(systemconfigurator not yet ported for new grub, grub2 and other 
bootloaders and Network manager) Just comment everything in the 
pre_install script.  

Firmwares available in the image are those that can be built from the 
kernel source tree. No external firmware is provided yet (need to check 
EULA).  

Please keep in mind that this is a testing release. If you have a 
systemimager that is in production, don't upgrade).  

Happy testing.
