Foreman will act as a DHCP server. +* On the baremetal server that will be your JumpHost, you need to have the 3 interfaces configured with IP addresses +* On baremetal JumpHost you will need an RPM based linux (CentOS 7 will do) with the kernel up to date (yum update kernel) + at least 2GB of RAM +* Nodes will need to be set to PXE boot first in priority, and off the first NIC, connected to the same VLAN as NIC 1 * of your JumpHost +* Nodes need to have BMC/OOB management via IPMI setup +* Internet access via first (Admin) or third interface (Public) +* No other hypervisors should be running on JumpHost + +####VM Nodes: +* JumpHost with 3 interfaces, configured with IP, connected to separate VLANS +* DHCP should not be running in any VLAN.

This will ensure that your nodes are turned off and that your VM is destroyed ("vagrant destroy" in the /tmp/bgs_vagrant directory). +For VM redeployment, make sure you "vagrant destroy" in each /tmp/<node> as well if you want to redeploy. To check and make sure no VMs are still running on your Jumphost you can use "vboxmanage list runningvms". |
