Virtualized Guest Provisioning

For example:

• If you want to open up a vnc connection so you can monitor the kickstart remotely, include vnc

vncpassword=PASSWORD in the Kernel Options line

• If you want the kernel of the resulting system to boot with the noapic kernel option, add noapic to

the Post Kernel Options line

Note that this requires a system that is accessible over your network and already registered to

Satellite. If you are reinstalling a system that is not registered to Satellite, there are several options:

• PXE

• Use cobbler buildiso

• Install koan on the system and use the koan command line tool, pointing at the Satellite server, to

install a named profile

Koan is covered in a later section.

8.2.1. File Preservation

If you would like to keep some files across a re-provision you can use Satellite's File Preservation

mechanism. This mechanism stores files temporarily during the kickstart and restores them at the end.

To create a file preservation list:

• Go to Systems => Kickstart => File Preservation Lists and create a list of files to preserve

• After creation, associate your list with a kickstart:

• Go to Systems => Kickstart => Profiles

• Select on the desired profile

• Select System Details => File Preservation

• Select your file preservation list

Note

File preservation lists are only available on Wizard-style kickstarts and are only available

during re-provisioning.

8.3. Virtualized Guest Provisioning

The following forms of Virtual Guest Provisioning is supported in Satellite 5.3:

• KVM Virtualized Guest

• Xen Fully-Virtualized Guest

• Xen Para-Virtualized Guest

Virtualization Type is set when when creating your kickstart profile. To provision a guest regardless of

its type, follow the following steps:
