Hacking the AlcaLu Image sros0.bknix.co.th

This is a log of what I have done to the VM installed in the style of Installing a qemu/libvirt Guest on an Otherwise Ganeti System.

With much help from Alastair Johnson of AlcaLu?.

Password Configuration

I did not create user names yet, but it seemed changing the password was critical

A:vRR# password 
Enter current password: 
Enter new password: 
Re-enter new password:

System Name, Password, etc.

A:vRR# configure system name sros0 
*A:sros0# configure system contact "Randy Bush <randy@psg.com>"
*A:sros0# admin save 
Writing configuration to cf3:\config.cfg
Saving configuration ... OK
Completed.

Set Up IPv4 Basic Addressing

I configured the IP Address

A:sros0# bof          
A:sros0>bof# address 203.159.71.201/24 
*A:sros0>bof# save

I configured default routes. Note that this must be done in two halves as this is the management interface and AlcaLu? did not want to facilitate real forwarding on this interface.

A:sros0>bof# static-route 0.0.0.0/1 next-hop 203.159.71.1    
*A:sros0>bof# static-route 128.0.0.0/1 next-hop 203.159.71.1
*A:vRR>bof# save

SSH Needs a Bit of Tweaking

License File

I whacked in the license file by

file vi cf3:timos.pie.b80.txt

and pasting in the file content.

Then tell the system where the file is

A:sros0# bof license-file cf3:/timos.pie.b80.txt 
*A:sros0# bof save 
Writing BOF to cf3:/bof.cfg ... OK
Completed.

This will take effect at the next reboot.
