Hello all,
I'm looking for the best way to install multiple servers and keep
them
updated.
Currently the plans are as follows:
Install all the boxen with the same exact setup (most
likely install.cfg
thru sysinstaller)
Have them do a local ftp install off that box
I'm looking for the easiest way to keep them all updated when need
be. we
have 1 box that tracks stable by-weekly, if needed I wish to run a script
on the servers to update them to the current -stable. I'm guessing this
would be easiest by mounting /usr/src /usr/obj and running make
installworld.
Perhaps run make release on that box, using that to install them
all, then
when updates are needed upgrade to a new release off that same box?
I'm not sure the best way to go about it. Not all machiens are
identical,
but are very close.
They systems are:
10x P3 600, 256ram, 30gig
5x P3 550, 128ram, 35gig
5x K7 650, 256 ram, 40gig
5x P-100, 64ram, 6gig
3x 486-100, 32ram, 540meg
I'd be fine not having the P-100 and 486's in the setup they are
most
likely a temp fix for workstations (p100) and the 486s are being used as
internal dns boxes.
