6 1 Dmitry Chernyak
7 4 Владимир Ипатов
You can get built ISO from here:
8 4 Владимир Ипатов
Otherwise you can build your own iso (for experienced users): [[BUILD-ISO]]
9 1 Dmitry Chernyak
10 1 Dmitry Chernyak
h2. Burn ISO image
11 1 Dmitry Chernyak
12 5 Владимир Ипатов
You burn it with your favorite tool (for ex. - k3b).
13 5 Владимир Ипатов
Also you can create bootable usb flash.

h2. Create bootable USB flash
16 5 Владимир Ипатов
17 5 Владимир Ипатов
We wrote script for this: 
18 5 Владимир Ипатов
You must have usb flash with first vfat partition that able to fit installer iso image.
19 5 Владимир Ипатов
start the script from root:
20 5 Владимир Ипатов
<pre>
21 12 Dmitry Chernyak
./makeusb.sh /dev/sdX
22 5 Владимир Ипатов
</pre>
23 12 Dmitry Chernyak
where /dev/sdX - path to block device pointing to your usb flash(whole flash, not a partition with vfat - not /dev/sdX1).
24 9 Владимир Ипатов
After execution of script vfat from flash will be mounted on /mnt (it may be changed in script). You must put ISO image in root directory of this filesystem and correctly umount it.
25 5 Владимир Ипатов
Now you can start installer from your flash drive.

h2. Install the system
28 1 Dmitry Chernyak
29 1 Dmitry Chernyak
Install the system on two nodes (you may use only one node, but high
30 1 Dmitry Chernyak
availability capabilities will be unavailable).
31 1 Dmitry Chernyak
32 1 Dmitry Chernyak
You must to know following data at this time:
33 1 Dmitry Chernyak
* The number and mask of local network
34 1 Dmitry Chernyak
* The IP addresses of two installed nodes (in the same network)
35 1 Dmitry Chernyak
* The internet router's address (in the same network, if any)
36 1 Dmitry Chernyak
* The cluster's domain name
37 1 Dmitry Chernyak
* The hostnames for new nodes
38 8 Владимир Ипатов
* The address of the future DNS server(*NOT an existent host!*), which will be installed on the
39 1 Dmitry Chernyak
cluster service instance.
40 1 Dmitry Chernyak
* The root's password
41 1 Dmitry Chernyak
* The idea on how to create storage system - to use MD or hardware raid
42 1 Dmitry Chernyak
or no raid at all - on your own choice.
43 1 Dmitry Chernyak
44 1 Dmitry Chernyak
h3. Partitioning
45 1 Dmitry Chernyak
46 1 Dmitry Chernyak
You should preserve following partitions on your nodes:
47 1 Dmitry Chernyak
|_.Name|_.Size|_.Purpose|
48 1 Dmitry Chernyak
|/|10G|Root partition for all node's data|
49 3 Владимир Ипатов
|swap|1G|Swap space for Dom0 in calculation of 512Mb RAM|
50 1 Dmitry Chernyak
|xenvg|the rest|The LVM Volume, named 'xenvg', without any partitions|
51 1 Dmitry Chernyak
52 10 Dmitry Chernyak
The VG "xenvg" will be used as the default place for the instance's volumes.
53 10 Dmitry Chernyak
Also the "system-stuff" volume will be automatically created on xenvg (and mounted as /stuff).
54 10 Dmitry Chernyak
It serves for various big stuff like cdrom images, instance backups etc.
55 10 Dmitry Chernyak
56 10 Dmitry Chernyak
If you want to place your own partitions on xenvg, you should then exclude them from ganeti-managed volumes. (SEE [[SETUP]]).
57 11 Dmitry Chernyak
Simplest way is to name your partitions "sytem-*" because this pattern is excluded in SCI-CD by default.
58 10 Dmitry Chernyak
59 10 Dmitry Chernyak
You may create more partitions or volume groups at your choice.
60 1 Dmitry Chernyak

h3. DNS server's address
62 1 Dmitry Chernyak
63 1 Dmitry Chernyak
The cluster has it's own DNS server, which is also the 'approx' and
64 1 Dmitry Chernyak
'puppet' server. At the [[SETUP]] stage, cluster DNS server can be linked
65 1 Dmitry Chernyak
to other DNS servers in the forwarding mode.
66 1 Dmitry Chernyak
67 1 Dmitry Chernyak
The server's address +must not+ be the address of the existing service.
68 1 Dmitry Chernyak
69 1 Dmitry Chernyak
The cluster's domain name must not be the name of the existing domain if
70 1 Dmitry Chernyak
local domain already exists (use subdomain, or completely different name).
71 1 Dmitry Chernyak
72 1 Dmitry Chernyak
h2. Automatic post-installation changes
73 1 Dmitry Chernyak
74 1 Dmitry Chernyak
During the installation phase, the postinst.sh script from the distro
75 1 Dmitry Chernyak
made the following system tuning: [[POST-INSTALL]] 
76 1 Dmitry Chernyak
77 1 Dmitry Chernyak
h2. The cluster is ready to setup
78 1 Dmitry Chernyak
79 1 Dmitry Chernyak
The CD installation takes about 15 minutes per node.
