Monday May 12, 2008
Now, lets install JeOS profile with Netboot install of OpenSolaris Nevada line
This entry is part of 'OpenSolaris on Amazon EC2' WorkshopGet predefined fix mac address with prepared DHCP setup
cat hostnames | grep xen-14 xen-1 129.157.107.172 00:16:3E:3f:fb:0e Amazon AWS EC2 Virtualisation testing
Generate temporally crypt password for instalation
/usr/bin/perl -e "print crypt(\"changeme\", (('a'..'z', 'A'9', '.', '/')[int(rand(64))].('a'..'z', 'A'..'Z', '0'..'9', '.', '/')[int(rand(64))]));"

Create universal sysidcfg
cat sysidcfg
name_service=none
root_password=FsHCBYEGL1NOo

terminal=vt100
nfs4_domain=dynamic
security_policy=NONE
network_interface=PRIMARY {DHCP protocol_ipv6=no}
Boot installation in xVM paravirtualized VM with virt-install
A summary about creation of kinds of xen domU
Note: Try to install it on 3GB file, in similar VM config as we have it in Amazon EC2 m1.small
mkdir -p /stuff/vmimages
{{{
virt-install --nographics --name xen-1 --paravirt --ram=1700 --check-cpu --vcpus=1 \
--file=/stuff/vmimages/root.file --file-size=3 --file=/stuff/vmimages/mnt.file --file-size=3 \
--mac=00:16:3e:3f:fb:0e \
--location=nfs:129.157.107.200:/data/Solaris/sxde0108 \
--autocf="nfs:129.157.107.200:/opt/jet/Clients/xen-1" \
--extra-args "subnet-mask=255.255.252.0" 2>&1 | tee /stuff/vmimages/install.log

}}}
After installation check used space
{{{
df -h
Filesystem size used avail capacity Mounted on
/dev/dsk/c0d0s0 2.8G 1.1G 1.4G 48% /
}}}
So we got 1.1GB installed size, compressed '''gzip -9''' 448.5 MB
Nice !
Backup XEN PV domain boot config for later use
{{{
virsh dumpxml xen-1 >/stuff/vmimages/xen-1-boot.xml
}}}
Backup VM
{{{
init 0; exit
}}}
Check then CM is for (state will be empty)
xm list xen-1
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)
xen-1 1700 1 115.5
Backup root.file
