DHCP server

Enable systemd log persistency (remember all reboots, not only last one)

Run emacs /etc/systemd/journald.conf, set

Storage=persistent

Do following:

mkdir /var/log/journal
systemd-tmpfiles --create --prefix /var/log/journal
systemctl restart systemd-journald

yum

On server where vme is loading from (as root; /zzz will be needed for mysqltcl installation below):

mkdir /diskless/CentOS7/x86_64/root/zzz
mount -o bind /usr/local/src /diskless/CentOS7/x86_64/root/zzz
chroot /diskless/CentOS7/x86_64/root

Add multilib_policy=all to /etc/yum.conf.

Add (and remove the rest ?) following to /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo:

[base]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
baseurl=http://archive.kernel.org/centos-vault/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/

Clean yum database:

rm /var/lib/rpm/__db.*

Install following using yum:

yum install motif-devel tcl-devel tk-devel libXpm-devel apr-devel libXaw-devel ncurses-devel 

Install following for dbedit:

yum install tix itcl itk

Install remaining tcl stuff from /usr/local/src, mounted as /zzz above:

cd /zzz/mysqltcl-3.052
make install
ln -s /usr/lib/mysqltcl-3.052 /usr/lib64/tcl8.5/mysqltcl-3.052

To enable remove ssh login, in 'sshd_config comment out this: #UsePAM yes

Gateway

Add

net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

to /etc/sysctl.conf and execute

sysctl -p

NIS server

yum install ypserv rpcbind

systemctl start ypserv

Setting DHCP server on clon10new (RHEL7)

yum install dhcp tftp tftp-server

Bryan:

yum install nfs-utils tftp-server syslinux-tftpboot syslinux

yum install dnsmasq

mkdir /tftpboot

grub2-mknetdir --net-directory=/tftpboot/efi

Create file /etc/systemd/system/tftp.service:

[Unit]

[Service]
#ExecStart=/usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /var/lib/tftpboot
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /tftpboot
StandardInput=socket

[Install]
Also=tftp.socket

Start tftp:

systemctl start tftp
#systemctl start tftp.socket ??

Create file /tftpboot/efi/boot/grub2/grub.cfg with following contents:

function load_video {
insmod efi_gop
insmod efi_uga
insmod video_bochs
insmod video_cirrus
insmod all_video

Start dhcp:

systemctl start dhcpd

Install nfs:

yum install nfs-utils

Configure file /etc/exports:

/diskless 192.168.10.0/24(rw,no_root_squash,sync)

Start NFS server:

systemctl status nfs-server

Check that NFS is exporting. Command

showmount -e

have to show following:

Export list for clondaq15.jlab.org:
/diskless 192.168.10.0/24

To use local name server, install bind:

yum install bind

Login from console may not work because of file /etc/securetty permissions, it must be 644.

THere is a service PAM, it may prevent login from console if some required services did not start. To work around, comment out some lines in /etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac file:
