Servers:Hercules

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.
