Hello. Do someone know good (open)solaris cluster tools, which will allow us to do the following: 1) Each server has common config files (most of /etc(/etc/passwd, /etc/shadow), same packages installed, same services enabled) 2) Each server has its custom config files which overrides common files (for example, /etc/hostname.bnx0 is unique for each server)
So, to add new server in cluster (e.g. SRSS cluster), we only customize server hostname and some other options, e.g. /etc/project, connect shared disk to our server, and it becomes fully functional. I understand, that such decision may be achieved, for example, by inserting early-starting service, which will initialize server config, e.g., based on its mac address, but I'd like to know is there some supported decision for such things. The other thing to be considered is update of such configuration - installing new packages globally and so on. It resembles sparse zones, but with common configs and applied to physical servers, not virtual environments... -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
