The addclients deal really only does a few things - the most important of which is to create soft links of your nodes to the script in question.
For example, my /var/lib/systemimager/scripts directory looks like this: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13258 Sep 24 09:47 2600-new.master -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13306 Sep 24 09:42 2600-pbs.master -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14743 Sep 28 12:27 2600-standard.master -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14721 Sep 28 12:22 2600-standard.master.save lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Sep 28 11:55 dillon.sh -> 2600-standard.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Sep 28 11:55 dowler.sh -> 2600-standard.master -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 988 Sep 28 11:49 hosts -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14011 Sep 27 09:26 small-pbs.master -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14021 Sep 27 15:57 small-pbs-scor.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Sep 27 16:03 wolf01.sh -> small-pbs-scor.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Sep 27 16:04 wolf02.sh -> small-pbs-scor.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Sep 27 16:04 wolf03.sh -> small-pbs-scor.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Sep 27 16:04 wolf04.sh -> small-pbs-scor.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Sep 27 16:04 wolf05.sh -> small-pbs-scor.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Sep 27 16:04 wolf06.sh -> small-pbs-scor.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Sep 24 10:13 wolf07.sh -> 2600-pbs.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Sep 24 10:13 wolf08.sh -> 2600-pbs.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Sep 24 10:13 wolf09.sh -> 2600-pbs.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Sep 24 10:13 wolf10.sh -> 2600-pbs.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Sep 24 10:13 wolf11.sh -> 2600-pbs.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Sep 24 10:13 wolf12.sh -> 2600-pbs.master lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Sep 24 10:13 wolf13.sh -> 2600-pbs.master You can see the soft links-- and can even see that I manually fiddled with some of the nodes-- they do not all point to the same script(image) file. With some simple manipulation, you can fiddle or re-create the links all you want. For your second question--- I think the upgrade documentation is described in the manual? Either that, or you need to basically edit the files, AND the rsync stubs directory entries, and it should all work. > -----Original Message----- > From: David Marquardt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, October 01, 2004 1:56 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [Sisuite-users] Maintaining Images > > Two questions regarding maintaining images. > Since we do both production systems and internal test > systems we retain about 10-12 images on our server. > > 1) After I do a getimage I go through the addclients > script.
