Anyone have any experience > in setting up cobbler in a HA solution? So in general I haven't needed it for HA, because the DHCP side was only for install time. The important question i think here is what you need to be HA, and in what way.
If you just need the DHCP to be HA, look into making whichever underlying DHCP server you are using HA. So for instance with ISC's DHCP (the default) check out this: http://www.madboa.com/geek/dhcp-failover/ Cobbler include replication features, so you can easily stand up a secondary system. > Is there any commercial support to get? (AFAIK the answer is no) So, Cobbler is the provisioning aspect of Red Hat Network Satellite, which is a commercial product with commercial support. Novel sells a competing product built atop Spacewalk as well, I would assume this makes it a commercial product with support too. > We are using VMware products for virtualization and will probably use > their products/features to get a DHCP- and Cobber server up and > running in a HA environment. Thats a valid method way of doing it. _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
