SystemImager is software that automates Linux installs, software distribution, and production deployment.
SystemImager makes it easy to do automated installs (clones), software distribution, content or data distribution, configuration changes, and operating system updates to your network of Linux machines. You can even update from one Linux release version to another!
It can also be used to ensure safe production deployments. By saving your current production image before updating to your new production image, you have a highly reliable contingency mechanism. If the new production enviroment is found to be flawed, simply roll-back to the last production image with a simple update command!
Some typical environments include: Internet server farms, database server farms, high performance clusters, computer labs, and corporate desktop environments.
Whats New in 3.8.2 Stable Release:
- fixed a bug in the monitoring: REBOOTED state was not properly reported in some minimal image (without the command which)
- added "--config FILE" option to si_prepareclient and si_mkbootpackage (and removed from si_mkautoinstalldisk: the option must be used in commands that explicitly create an initrd.img from initrd_template)
- do not hard-code common patterns of exclusion in si_getimage (created the configuration file /etc/systemimager/getimage.exclude)
- si_getimage didnt stop correctly the rsync daemon in the golden client, using rsync over ssh for the image retrieval
Whats New in 3.9.2 Development Release:
- Added support for the PS3 architecture
- Improved support and compatibility with Debian (now deb packages can be automatically built from source using the new target "make deb")
- updated BOEL kernel to 2.6.21 (for i386 and x86_64)
- fixed a bug that broke si_mkautoinstalldisk
- free unused RAM of the initramfs (only with cpio initrd.img) after switching to tmpfs
- updated udev to udev_108-0ubuntu4
- support old versions of the BitTorrent client (better compatibilty with *Ubuntu)
- fixed a lib/lib64 bug with ppc64
- fixed a bug in si_monitor daemon that didnt start correctly when the directory /var/lock/systemimager was not present
- added missing manpages
- remount the filesystems in read-only before giving-up when the umount fails at the end of the installation
- create all the swap partitions before the other filesystems in the autoinstall script: this avoids potential OOM conditions that could occur during the filesystem creation
- removed unused coreutils package from initrd.img
- removed unmaintained package imagemanip
- removed deprecated command si_mkbootmedia
