Adding a new vserver
- As root on hercules:
- First create the template the server will use for portage
# cd /etc/managed-portage/ # rsync -avP hosts/TEMPLATE_webdb/ hosts/sr-hercules$$
- Commit the new vserver's template to git
# git add hosts/sr-hercules$$ # git commit -m 'New VM, Hercules$$' # git push
- Create the new vserver
# cd ~/vps-siat/scripts/ # ./make-vps sr-hercules$$ br0:10.0.1.XX/16 br0:209.87.56.XX/24
- Note that $$ must be the number of the new vserver, which start at 00.
- Further note that XX is the IP to be assigned to the new server. Be very careful not to assign an already taken IP.
Removing an existing vserver
- As root on hercules:
- First ensure that the Vserver is stopped
# vserver sr-hercules$$ stop
- Kill the server
# cd ~/vps-siat/scripts/ # ./kill-vps sr-hercules$$
- Note that $$ must be the number of the vserver.
Working with managed-portage profiles
- It is very important that you DO NOT touch /etc/portage/ on any vserver. Everything must be done through /etc/managed-portage/ on the master server.
- Below are a few common tasks for managed-portage
Setting up vserver-specific USE flags
- As root on hercules:
# cd /etc/managed-portage/hosts/sr-hercules$$/make.profile/
- Here you can create/edit any regular files you would under /etc/portage/, such as package.use for example:
# vim package.use
- Specify what USE flags you'd like a package to use
- Commit the changes to git
# git commit -m '$MESSAGE' package.use # git push # cd /vservers/sr-hercules$$/etc/managed-portage/ # git pull
- Note that $$ must be the number of the new vserver, which start at 00.
- Also note that you must replace package.use with whatever file you edited/created.
Changing or setting the profile of a vserver
- As root on hercules:
# cd /etc/managed-portage/class/$PROFILE
- Add the name of the vserver to the applies_to file (if your vserver is sr-hercules99, add 'sr-hercules99' to a new line in the file)
- Commit the changes to git
# git commit -m "$MESSAGE' applies_to # git push
- Enter the vserver
# vserver sr-hercules$$ enter
- Pull the changes from git and emerge
# cd /etc/managed-portage/ # git pull # emerge -knN @system ; emerge -knN @world ; emerge -knN @installed
