Just set up a new VM hosted on combobox to be a new home for live.gnome.org, pango.org, and anything else we want to put there.
VM configured as: 4 "virtual cpus" 2GB ram 4GB swap 6GB / partition 16GB /mnt/wiki-data All of this is changeable if we need it (with a bit more effort to resize the / partition and swap partition sizes, since they are partitions within a disk image in a LVM partition.) This is the first VM we've set up with KVM rather than Xen, so it took a bit of experimentation. I've made minor updates to: http://live.gnome.org/Sysadmin/Cobbler And created a new profile in Cobbler for a "KVM guest.) libvirt covered over the KVM vs. Xen differences pretty well, except for configuring networking in the host, which was a bit of a pain to figure out. [1] The installation procedure did basically follow the lines on the Wiki, but I'm not really expecting anybody to be able to follow that without a few snags, so if you want to create a VM, ask me ahead of time to set up a time when I'll be around and can help you through it. -Owen [1] The way that a shared NIC configuration works with qemu/kvm is that you set up the network as: [r...@combobox ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 # Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5709 Gigabit Ethernet DEVICE=eth0 HWADDR=00:21:9B:98:55:69 ONBOOT=yes BRIDGE=br0 [r...@combobox ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0 DEVICE=br0 TYPE=Bridge ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=209.132.180.174 NETMASK=255.255.255.224 GATEWAY=209.132.180.190 And the same for eth1 and br1. Then you point the interfaces in the guest at br0 and br1, by, for example, using the --virt-bridge=br0 option in Cobbler. /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts isn't covered in puppet since the networking has to be all set up before you can start using puppet. _______________________________________________ gnome-infrastructure mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-infrastructure
