Installation
mount –o loop /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom
create /etc/yum.repos.d/local.repo file, including following contents
[local]
name=local
baseurl=file:///mnt/cdrom/Server
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1
CentOS 6.5 也是可行的,但是 PowerVC 的 Install 和 Update 脚本都会报错退出,需要绕过去
selinux: /etc/selinux/config -> selinux=disabled/permissive 修改这个 selinux 配置后需要重启操作系统?
/etc/hosts: 9.123.xx.x lab0x.cn.ibm.com lab0x
Created the SAN fabric and disabled the physically disconnected Fibre Channel ports (in the "Configuration" menu).
Created the static network to be used for to-be-deployed LPARs
