Bug #3297

Updated by Dominic Cleal about 10 years ago

The goal is to provision bare metal host on a clean install of Foreman. The following steps are necessary: 

 * create smart proxy 
 <pre> 
     hammer proxy create --name myproxy --url https://proxy.my.net:8443 
 </pre> 
 * create architecture 
 <pre> 
     hammer architecture create --name x86_64 
 </pre> 
 * create new subnet 
 <pre> 
     hammer subnet create --name "My Net" --network "192.168.122.0" --mask "255.255.255.0" --gateway "192.168.122.1" --dns-primary "192.168.122.1" 
 </pre> 
 * import existing subnet from a proxy 
     missing, see #3355 
 * create new domain 
 <pre> 
     hammer domain create --name "my.net" --fullname "My network" 
 </pre> 
 * associate domain with proxy 
 <pre> 
     hammer domain update --id 1 --dns-id 1 
 </pre> 
 * associate subnet with domain 
 <pre> 
     hammer subnet update --id 1 --domain-ids 1 
 </pre> 
 * associate subnet with proxy (DHCP, TFTP, DNS) 
 <pre> 
     hammer subnet update --id 1 --dhcp-id 1 --tftp-id 1 --dns-id 1 
 </pre> 
 * create new partition table 
 <pre> 
     hammer partition_table create --name "Redhat test" --file /tmp/rh_test.txt 
 </pre> 
 * create new OS 
 <pre> 
     hammer os create --name RHEL --major 6 --minor 4 
 </pre> 
     --family does not work yet - PR https://github.com/theforeman/foreman/pull/777 
 * create new template 
 <pre> 
     hammer template create --name "kickstart mynet" --type provision --file /tmp/ks.txt 
 </pre> 
 * edit existing pre-defined template 
 <pre> 
     hammer template dump --id 4 > /tmp/ks.txt 
     vim /tmp/ks.txt 
     hammer template update --id 4 --file /tmp/ks.txt 
 </pre> 
 * associate applicable OS with pre-defined template 
 <pre> 
     hammer template update --id 1 --operatingsystem-ids 1 
 </pre> 
     Confirmed through the UI, but listing of templates does not work. Version on GH has listing fixed, but listing associated OS's is still missing - see #3360 
 * associate OS with architecture 
 <pre> 
     hammer os update --id 1 --architecture-ids 1 
 </pre> 
 * associate OS with part table 
 <pre> 
     hammer os update --id 1 --ptable-ids 1 
 </pre> 
 * associate OS with install media 
 <pre> 
     hammer os update --id 1 --medium-ids 1 
 </pre> 
 * associate OS with install provision and pxelinux templates 
     Added to API in #3928, Hammer feature is #3970 #4540 
 * create libvirt compute resource 
 <pre> 
     hammer compute_resource create --name libvirt --url "qemu:///system" --provider Libvirt 
 </pre> 
 * import puppet classes 
     missing - see #3035 
 * and finally create a host 
 <pre> 
     hammer -v host create --name "clitest.mynet.com" --ip "192.168.122.5" --host-group-id 1 --compute-resource-id 1 --interface "type=network,model=virtio,network=default" --volume "capacite=10G" --compute-attributes "start=true" 
 </pre> 

     creates host in my case on Libvirt with NAT and 10GB storage 
     related issues - #3063
