Our R&D labs do a lot of testing on a variety of Operating Systems. We have
gotten the Linuxes working and would like to add ESXi, Windows and Solaris
11 as well. The steps we have taken so far are as described below.
1. Edit file ~foreman/app/models/operatingsystem.rb and add the new OS
FAMILIES = { 'Debian' => %r{Debian|Ubuntu}i,
'Redhat' =>
%r{RedHat|Centos|Fedora|Scientific|SLC|OracleLinux}i,
'Suse' => %r{OpenSuSE|SLES|SLED}i,
'Windows' => %r{Windows}i,
'Altlinux' => %r{Altlinux}i,
'Archlinux' => %r{Archlinux}i,
'Coreos' => %r{CoreOS}i,
'Gentoo' => %r{Gentoo}i,
'Solaris' => %r{Solaris}i,
'Freebsd' => %r{FreeBSD}i,
'AIX' => %r{AIX}i,
'Junos' => %r{Junos}i,
'NXOS' => %r{NX-OS}i,
'Xenserver' => %r{XenServer}i,
'ESXi' => %r{ESXi}i, }
2. Add file ~foreman/app/models/operatingsystems/esxi.rb with
relevant information
3. Add relevant Provisioning Templates using the Foreman web interface
The question we have is do we need to make changes to the Database? The
following files under ~foreman/migrate/ seem to indicate some kind of
database updates? Sorry, I’m not familiar with Ruby Rails architecture.
20100310080727_add_family_to_os.rb: os.family_id =
Operatingsystem::FAMILIES.index :Solaris
20100616114400_change_family_in_os.rb: families = ["Debian", "Redhat",
"Solaris", "Suse", "Windows"]
20120127141602_add_windows_templates.rb:class AddWindowsTemplates <
ActiveRecord::Migration
Thanks for your input.
