[sisuite-users] support newer kernels in systemimager?

2013-11-04 Thread Steven DuChene

I am trying to capture the image of a system that is running Ubuntu 
Precise 12.04LTS and when I run the si_prepareclient with the following 
command line switches:

si_prepareclient --server 10.23.18.10 --my-modules

I get the following :

Use of uninitialized value $v1 in split at 
/usr/lib/systemimager/perl/SystemImager/Common.pm line 199.
Use of uninitialized value $v1 in split at 
/usr/lib/systemimager/perl/SystemImager/Common.pm line 199.

ERROR: unsupported kernel 3.5.0-23-generic!

The warnings or errors about "Use of uninitialized value $v1 in split at 
/usr/lib/systemimager/perl/SystemImager/Common.pm line 199" is due to 
the way parted is now returning multiple line of text output when the 
--version option is passed. It seems that the perl code that is supposed 
to be parsing the stuff that is not able to handle that multi-line 
output to extract the version of the parted utility.


However what concerns me most is the message back that says the 
3.5.0-23-generic kernel is not supported.
Is there any documentation available for systemimager that would show 
the necessary process steps to incorperate support for newer kernels?

Any suggestions about any of this would be most appreciated. BTW, I have 
the following installed on the Ubuntu system:

Sorry I missed getting to SC2013

Did you ever get a chance to look at this Ubuntu 12.04 issue with 
systemimager?

Hi Steven,

Thanks for the report.  I'll see if I can re-create it in the lab, and 
update the code accordingly.

What version of Debian or Ubuntu are you installing this on? On Ubuntu 
12.04 the dhcp packages are called "isc-dhcp-server" rather than dhcp3 
and the diff utility dpkg is called diffutils rather than just diff. 
Perhaps you could alter the list of downloaded deb packages to 
correspond to the real package names available for your distribution.

I tried to install the client pieces on a system a few months ago and 
while it all installed fine, the actual prepareclient step would not 
function on a Ubuntu 12.04LTS Precise system because the systemimager 
utilities would not support the 3.X.X kernels found on Ubuntu precise. I 
reported this but I have heard absolutely nothing from Bryan or any of 
the other developers as far as fix or a suggested work-around. With no 
fix forthcoming I have to abandon my plans for using systemimager and 
consider it a dead project. Too bad as it was a really cool tool.

It is however already out of date as Ubuntu 12.04 can run 3.2 
(linux-generic) 3.5 (linux-generic-lts-quantal) 3.8 
(linux-generic-lts-raring) or 3.11 (linux-generic-lts-saucy) kernels:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack

The patch will fix your problem running si_prepareclient (though I can 
image that I could not do the network boot on that kernel (still using 
an old 2.X Ubuntu 11.04 kernel).


My images are also converted to grub1 instead of grub2, and the master 
script edited to have ext3 not ext4, and a similar patch to allow the 
server to upload from an ext4 golden client.


I'm looking forward to a new release of SI for Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04 
support!


Regards,
Jan

I tried to access this and the file is not really available.
I actually need the systemimager and other pieces for both RHEL/CentOS 
and the Debian pieces. If I just have the debian/Ubuntu parts I cannot 
implement my testing infrastructure.

Where can I get 4.2.X SIS/systemimager pieces? Both Debian/Ubuntu deb 
packages and the equivalent rpm packages for RHEL/CentOS???
