Dear all,
I'm working on si_netbootmond (in fact working on OSCAR side) and discovered
that
si_netbootmond rely on the fact that the imaging method is rsync.
It monitors the rsyncd log file for magic works stating that imaging is
complete.
There are 2 problems here:
1/ It doesn't work for deployment using flamethrower /multicast or bittorrent
2/ If a client is successfully imaged, this doesn't mean that it is able to
reboot (bad
image, bad bootloader, ...) in this situation, setting local boot is wrong.
I see 3 solutions:
1/ replace the actual code that scans /var/log/systemimager/rsyncd for magic
words for magic words: /scripts\/imaging_complete_?([\.0-9]+)?/
with something that would do something like
use File::Monitor;
my $monitor = File::Monitor->new();$monitor->watch('somefile.txt');
Regards,
Olivier.
