Before taking golden image, Install Fresh OS. Apply required patches. Install additional software. Customize the system as required. Do not use the system while taking the Golden Image. While running make_sys_image, the device files are removed, the host and networking information on the system is reset. After the command is complete, these files are put back. By default, make_sys_image stores the archive in /var/tmp directory. We can also the save the archive in remote system.
Copy /opt/ignite/data/scripts/make_sys_image to /tmp. Set the permission to 755.
# cp –p /opt/ignite/data/scripts/make_sys_image /tmp |
Create a directory to store the golden image
Take the Golden Image
# cd /tmp # ./make_sys_image -d <directory_to_place_Image> -s local -n image_name.gzor to store the image in a remote system# ./make_sys_image -d <directory_to_place_Image> -s <remote_system_IP address>Make sure the ~root/.rhosts file on the ignite server contains the entry <hostname> root |
On the ignite server create a directory for the created image and copy the image to that directory
# mkdir -p /ignite/archives/HP-UX_B.11.31_BOE # scp /var/tmp/<image_name>.gz root@<ignite-server>:/ignite/archives/HP-UX_B.11.31_BOE/HP-UX_B.11.31_BOE.gz |
Adjust the file mode
# chmod 644 /ignite/archives/HP-UX_B.11.31_BOE/HP-UX_B.11.31_BOE.gz |
Creating a configuration directory on Ignite server to recognize the golden image
# mkdir –p /var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31 |
Create the Ignite-UX configuration file for the golden image. We can use the example file /opt/ignite/data/examples/B.11.31.golden_image.cfg
Copy the example configuration file to /var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31 directory
# cp /opt/ignite/data/examples/B.11.31.golden_image.cfg \/var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/golden_image_11.31_cfg |
Modify the golden_image_11.31_cfg file to set up the golden image NFS transfer. In the sw_source clause, change the nfs_source to the NFS server name and exported directory name. Make sure to use the IP address instead of hostname since the loading of NFS image may fail if hostname is used.
nfs_source = "192.168.248.237:/backup/AEM/ignite/golden_images"In the sw_sel clause, change the archive path. If the full path of the archive is 192.168.248.237:/backup/AEM/ignite/golden_images/Rel_B.11.31/goldserver.gz, just add Rel_B.11.31/goldserver.gz alone.

Run the archive_impact command and get archive impact values
/opt/ignite/lbin/archive_impact -t -g <archive_file_name> |
Include the results in the configuration file, replacing the example impacts line.
# vi ./core_archive_cfg Example : impacts = "/" 15Kb impacts = "/dev" 16Kb impacts = "/etc" 35738Kb impacts = "/home" 201Kb impacts = "/ignite" 7165067Kb impacts = "/opt" 5112644Kb impacts = "/sbin" 108210Kb impacts = "/stand" 151326Kb impacts = "/usr" 2756436Kb impacts = "/var" 786742Kb |
Add the new configuration file (golden_image_11.31_cfg) to /var/opt/ignite/INDEX file.
# vi /var/opt/ignite/INDEX …. cfg "HP-UX B.11.31 Golden Image" { description "Default system configuration for B.11.31 release." "/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/config" "/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/hw_patches_cfg" "/var/opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/golden_image_cfg" "/var/opt/ignite/config.local" } |
The config and config.local files contains default configuration. config.local should be the last file in the cfg clause. The opt/ignite/data/Rel_B.11.31/config supplies the disk and file system layout default plus other control information required by Ignite-UX.
Make sure the target system can access the archive file using NFS. Now, the above cfg clause appears as an available configuration to Ignite-UX.
# vi /etc/dfs/dfstab … share –F nfs -0 anon=2 /ignite/archives/HP-UX_B.11.31_BOE # shareall |
