| | 6 | This page contains a step-by-step installation guide for Quattor SCDB, a configuration database and its associated deployment tools. SCDB relies on several underlying services not specific to Quattor, like Apache, Subversion, DHCP, TFTP and installing SCDB involves configuring these underlying services for Quattor use. This is potentially site-specific but to illustrate the configuration process decribed here, this page contains command examples based on the following assumptions: |
| | 7 | * SVN server is `svn.example.org`. This clearly need to be updated to reflect your host/domain name. |
| | 8 | * SVN repository associated with SCDB can be accessed through URL `http://svn.example.org/svn/quattor`. |
| | 9 | * TFTP server root directory is the default, `/tftpboot`. |
| | 10 | |
| | 11 | Also, for the sake of simplicity, the configuration steps for underlying services assume that these services are dedicated to Quattor. As stated in this guide, this is not at all a requirement. If you want to use an already existing service for Quattor, you'll need to tweak the proposed configuration to fit in your existing configuration. This may require information not present in this guide: in this case refer to the service documentation. If you have no specific constraint and you aren't familiar with these services, you are probably better to stick with a configuration as close as possible with the one used in examples. |
