Build a PXE environment to batch deploy Redhat6 (win mode)
1. Introduction to PXE
PXE (preboot execute environment) was developed by Intel The latest technology, working in Client/Server network mode, supports the workstation to download the Set up a PXE environment to batch deploy Redhat6 (win mode)_PHP tutorial from the remote server through the network, and thus supports the startup process of the operating system from the network. During the startup process, the terminal requires the server to assign an IP address, and then uses The TFTP (trivial file transfer protocol) protocol downloads a startup software package into the local memory and executes it. The startup software package completes the basic software settings of the terminal and boots the terminal operating system pre-installed in the server.
2. Detailed explanation of startup steps
1. Power on the server and start from DHCP The server gets the IP address and loads it (PXEClient).
2. Obtain the network boot program (pxelinux.0) through the TFTP server.
3. The boot program reads the configuration file (the file name of pxelinux.cfg in this example is: default).
4. The boot program loads the file system initialization (initrd) program, kernel initial Set up a PXE environment to batch deploy Redhat6 (win mode)_PHP tutorial (vmlinuz), and automatic response program (ks.cfg).
5. According to the network installation method specified in the automatic response file, install the Linux system through FTP.
3. Use tools
A. Set up a PXE environment to batch deploy Redhat6 (win mode)_PHP tutoriald64
B. Xlight FTP server
4. Agreement in this example
A. pxe environment server address: 192.168.2.120
B. pxe client allocation address: 192.168.2.240 - 192.168.2.250
C. Directory structure
D:pxe: PXE environment software directory.
D:pxeSet up a PXE environment to batch deploy Redhat6 (win mode)_PHP tutoriald64: Set up a PXE environment to batch deploy Redhat6 (win mode)_PHP tutorial software directory.
D:pxeSet up a PXE environment to batch deploy Redhat6 (win mode)_PHP tutoriald64pxe :pxe startup file directory
D:pxeSet up a PXE environment to batch deploy Redhat6 (win mode)_PHP tutoriald64pxepxelinux.cfg :pxe configuration file directory (TFTP working directory).
D:pxexlight: Xlight FTP software directory.
D:pxesrc : Redhat 6.5 CD Set up a PXE environment to batch deploy Redhat6 (win mode)_PHP tutorial directory (FTP working directory).
5. TFTP tool configuration
A. DHCP configuration
Mainly configure the DHCP address pool. There are the following things to pay attention to.
Note: The pxelinux.0 file is stored in the root directory of the TFTP working directory, so there is no need to add a path (as shown in the picture)
B. TFTP configuration
Just specify the TFTP working directory.
6. Xlight FTP server configuration
A. Configure FTP server IP and port
B. Create an FTP user and set the FTP working directory
I have not set a password. I personally feel that there is no need to set a password. You can set it if you wish.
7. PXE boot configuration file modification
File location: D:pxeSet up a PXE environment to batch deploy Redhat6 (win mode)_PHP tutoriald64pxepxelinux.cfgdefault
Purpose of modification: increase KS .CONF file configuration allows PXE to load KS.CONF (automatic answer file) and start automatically installing Redhat.
8. KS.CONF configuration
Follow the Red Hat kickstart specifications and pay attention to the installation mode and select FTP installation
9. Download the integrated environment
