Hi Cobbler folks, At Eucalyptus, for running the development and test environment for engineers, we have been using a custom-built self-provisioning system, via PXEBOOT, to provision the machines around in our datacenter.
However, recently we have picked up Cobbler to handle the bare metal provision tasks of the internal dev/test system. Then, came up with the idea that we should integrate Cobbler into Eucalyptus to handle the bare metal provisioning-related operations, thus giving a birth to "Metaleuca." Metaleuca is a bare-metal provision management system that interacts with open-source software Cobbler via EC2-like CLIs. For those who are interested in more details of Metaleuca, feel free to check out the blog below: http://kyolee.com/2013/01/30/introducing-metaleuca/ The code of Metaleuca can be seen at: https://github.com/eucalyptus/metaleuca Metaleuca is still at its experimental/prototype stage, but your comments and suggestions will be extremely valuable in setting the right direction on this integration approach. Thank you all! Kyo --- Kyo Lee Software Designer at Eucalyptus. Twitter: @kyolee
