If you have to update multiple VM servers with every release, doing installation using pxe server becomes easier. To get oracle vm server installed using pxe ..
Requirement
PXE Server
Oracle VM Server 3.0.2
Download & Mount OracleVM-Server.iso
mount -o loop /storage/os/OracleVM-Server-3.0.2.iso cd/
Create folder to store oracle vm files.
mkdir -p /tftpboot/images/oraclevm/
Copy required files to oraclevm folder under pxe.
cp cd/isolinux/mboot.c32 /tftpboot/images/oraclevm/
cp cd/isolinux/initrd.img /tftpboot/images/oraclevm/
cp cd/isolinux/vmlinuz /tftpboot/images/oraclevm/
cp cd/isolinux/xen.gz /tftpboot/images/oraclevm/
append following lines in /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default
LABEL ovs3
kernel images/oraclevm/mboot.c32
append images/oraclevm/xen.gz --- images/oraclevm/vmlinuz --- images/oraclevm/initrd.imgthats all, now with pxe boot you’ll find option to boot using ovs.
once you boot from ovs pxe, you need to either give path of iso image using nfs store OR give http path where content of cd is copied / cd mounted.
