Hi,
I was following the instructions at http://www.ovirt.org/Node_PXE. My goal is to use
pxeboot (iPXE) to boot the node entirely into RAM with rootfs. What I got now is an
installation screen which requires a local storage. My system has no disk and this
doesn't quite work for me.
What's are the kernel parameters I need to use to boot the node into RAM
automatically? I am OK as the first step with a stateless node.

Hey David,
the stateless mode is currently not completely working with oVirt
Engine. That means a Node needs to be approved each time it boots into
the stateless mode.
The stateless mode can be entered by appending stateless to the default
kernel arguments.

Hi Fabian,
That kernel option worked for me! The node is booted up in RAM. Thanks!
My next question is:
How do I specify the root login and passwd as boot parameters?

Hey David.
Nice that it worked! Were you able to register to the Engine?
You can use the adminpw= and rootpw= kernel arguments to set passwords.
use
$ openssl passwd -salt 42
to create one or two passwords

Hi Fabian,
Yes rootpwd worked too! Thanks.
Two new problems:
But I found there is no networking for the stateless node.
What kernel boot options are used to either use DHCP or statically configure the IP
address for an interface on the node?
I also need to have the sshd enabled. Is there a kernel option for that?

Hi Fabian,
Everytime the ovirt node boots up, it adds a route entry that I have to manually remove.
Otherwise it messed up my routing.
How do I modify the boot scripts to automatically remove it?

Hey David,
could you file a bug for that route problem?
You can try the following workaround:
# Create /etc/rc.d/rc.local with the commands to run
$ vi /etc/rc.d/rc.local
$ chmod a+x /etc/rc.d/rc.local
$ persist /etc/rc.d/rc.local
/etc/rc.d/rc.local should then be run on every boot.

Hi Fabian,
I think the bad route is a link local route 169.254.0.0/16. I am not quite sure if
it's a real bug but in my case I have to remove this route.
Also I am using ramdisk based node without a local disk. Can anything be persisted?

Hey David,
when you refer to stateless mode, then no, nothing can be persisted.
Regarding the bug - Please provide the whole cmdline you are using to
boot the node, to give me a chance to reproduce it.

Hey David,
stateless is a feature or a special mode of oVirt Node which is also
available on the "oVirt Node for oVirt Engine" image [1].
But please note that you will have to approve the Node in Engine after
each reboot if you use the stateless feature. This bug [2] might also
tackle the problem of a stateless Node.

I am not quite sure if it's a real bug but in my case I have
to remove this route.

Hey David,
=20
when you refer to stateless mode, then no, nothing can be
persisted.
Regarding the bug - Please provide the whole cmdline you are
using to
boot the node, to give me a chance to reproduce it.

Hi Fabian,
I booted the new node stateless. But how can connect to it from ovirt engine cli? The cli
asks for three things: URL, user name and password. I am not sure how to put them on the
kernel boot option line.

Hi Fabian,

I booted the new node stateless. But how can connect to it from ovirt
engine cli? The cli asks for three things: URL, user name and
password. I am not sure how to put them on the kernel boot option
line.

Hey David,
=20
stateless is a feature or a special mode of oVirt Node which is also
available on the "oVirt Node for oVirt Engine" image [1].
But please note that you will have to approve the Node in Engine after
each reboot if you use the stateless feature. This bug [2] might also
tackle the problem of a stateless Node.

I have a iSCSI partition on my stateless node. But the problem is I

mounted on a regular machine without problems.=20
=20

[root@localhost ~]# mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda

/dev/sda is entire device, not just one partition!
Proceed anyway? (y,n) y
=20
/dev/sda is apparently in use by the system; will not make a
filesystem here!
=20
=20
=20
=20
The error message doesn't seem to make sense as the iSCSI partition
isn't used by any other machine. =20
=20
=20
Any idea why this isn't working in a stateless node?=20
This doesn't seem to be a stateless problem.
Please run findmnt /dev/sda to see if it's mounted.
Please also consider to ask your questions on users(a)ovirt.org or
node-devel(a)ovirt.org - there are more people there to answer.
node-devel(a)ovirt.org is especially good for Node stuff.

This doesn't seem to be a stateless problem.
=20
Please run findmnt /dev/sda to see if it's mounted.
=20
Please also consider to ask your questions on users(a)ovirt.org or
node-devel(a)ovirt.org - there are more people there to answer.
=20
node-devel(a)ovirt.org is especially good for Node stuff.
My fault - A look at the recipients would have revealed that they are
included :)

This doesn't seem to be a stateless problem.

Please also consider to ask your questions on users(a)ovirt.org or
node-devel(a)ovirt.org - there are more people there to answer.
node-devel(a)ovirt.org is especially good for Node stuff.
