SUSE Linux system prerequisites

The following system prerequisites apply only to SUSE Linux systems:

  • Install the following RPM packages (unless they are installed already):

    • nfs-utils

    • dhcp-base

    • dhcp-server

    • inetd

    • tftp

  • Enable the tftp service by doing the following:

    • Edit the /etc/inetd.conf file and uncomment the tftp line.

    • Start the service by running the following command:

      /etc/init.d/inetd restart

  • Modify the /etc/dhcpd.conf file to define the networks it serves. You do not have to define host information; hosts are added and removed as needed by the Bare Metal Restore software. The following is an example configuration:

    log-facility local7;
ddns-update-style none;
ignore unknown-clients;
subnet 10.10.5.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {  
default-lease-time            600;  
max-lease-time                7200;  
option domain-name            "example.com";  
option broadcast-address      10.10.5.255;  
option domain-name-servers    10.10.1.4,10.88.24.5;  
option routers                10.10.5.1;
}

    To verify the /etc/dhcpd.conf file syntax, restart the daemon and ensure that it starts successfully by running:

    /etc/init.d/dhcpd restart
