Example Embodiment

[0018] Example 1:

[0019] The deployment method is as follows:

[0020] Pre-boot execution environment The PXE client starts from PXE, configures the protocol DHCP message, and the PXE client starts the BIOS of the network card basic input and output system in the PXE client, obtains the client ID entered by the user, and uses the client ID entered by the user as PXE The client ID of the client is stored; the client ID pre-stored in the PXE client is sent to the PXE server, and the PXE server allocates corresponding configuration information for the PXE client according to the client ID of the PXE client, so that the PXE client The terminal can download the PXE boot program according to the client IP of the PXE client and the address of the PXE boot program in the configuration information, and complete the PXE installation and configuration through the PXE boot program.

[0021] The configuration protocol is divided into client and server ends. The PXE client is in the ROM of t...

Example Embodiment

[0029] Example 2:

[0030] Steps to deploy and implement with Linux as the server:

[0031] 1) Prepare the PXE remote installation server, including the yum source required by the system and install and enable the TFTP service;

[0032] 2) Prepare the Linux kernel and initialize the image file

[0033] The Linux kernel used for PXE network installation, the initialization image files can be obtained from the RHEL6 system CD, respectively vmlinuz and initrd.img, located in the folder images / pxeboot; find these two files and copy them to the root of the tftp service Under contents;

[0034] 3) Prepare PXE boot program, start menu file

[0035] The boot program used for PXE network installation is pxelinux.0, which is provided by the software package syslinux; install the software package syslinux, and then copy the file pxelinux.0 to the root directory of the tftp service;

[0036] 4) Install and enable DHCP service

[0037] Since the PXE client is usually a bare metal that has not yet inst...

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic server deployment method based on a PXE (pre-boot execution environment). The deployment method comprises the following steps: starting a PXE client side from the PXE, configuring protocol DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol) information, sending a client side identifier pre-stored in the PXE client side to a PXE server; according to the client side identifier of the PXE client side, distributing the corresponding configuration information to the PXE client side through the PXE server, so that the PXE client side can download a PXE bootstrap program according to the client end IP (internet protocol) in the configuration information and address of the PXE bootstrap program; completing PXE installation and configuration through the PXE bootstrap program. Compared with the prior art, the automatic server deployment method has the characteristics of being reasonable in design, simple and convenient to operate, can improve the efficiency of identifying the PXE client side through the PXE server, saves the operation time, improves the working efficiency, relieves the workload of deployment staff and reduces the labor intensity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of the Internet, in particular to a PXE-based server automatic deployment method. Background technique [0002] With the development of computers, especially the arrival of big data, the number of servers on the shelves of companies will increase, from the first few to hundreds of thousands later, and at the same time, it will cause certain problems for the deployment personnel of the servers. Stress and spend a lot of time installing the operating system. [0003] PXE is the abbreviation of English preboot execute environment, that is, the pre-boot execution environment. It is the latest technology developed by Intel Corporation. It works in the Client / Server network mode, supports the workstation to download the image from the remote server through the network, and thus supports network startup. The operating system, during the startup process, the terminal requires the server to assign an IP address, and...
