#
#0 - WHAT WILL YOU GET
#
# * a standalone fs/auth/fileserver
# * a couple of cpu servers booted from network
# * a couple of terminal booted from network or a drawterm :)
#
#With that i will practice distributed programming with plan9 using
#one computer connected to internet.
#
#It would be better if you try to install a terminal and play a bit
#with it, to get used to use the plan9 environment properly.
#
#And even better if you have a couple of supported machines to see
#the real thing :=)
#
#1 - INSTALL YOUR VMWARE_LIKE SOFTWARE
#
#The following considerations must be done prior to select a virtual
#machine software:
#
# * Boot from PXE support
# * Multiple concurrent instances
# * Supportfor bridget network with the host
#
#I choosed vmware 4.5.2 as its support all of the above and it is
#supported by Plan9 graphics system.
#
#The vmware 5.0 machine can be used but the install process must be
#done using text only, so if you're not proficent with ed, you better
#choose 4.5.2.
#
#qemu can be used as well but i know nothing about it, so may be
#someone wants to make this brief more complete.
#
#2 - INSTALLING THE FIRST VIRTUAL MACHINE
#
# * Task: configfs
#
#Here we select fossil+venti as we first will set up a standalone
#plan9 auth/cpu/file server.
#
#Later we split that in different machines
#
#I suggest you to use the default partition layout and default slices
#layout.
#
# * Follow the in screen instructions and finish the installation.
#
#You should be able to do it without more indications as the
#installation program is intuitive enough.
#
#3 - BOOT AND INITIAL SET UP
#
# * Log in as glenda
#
#At this moment fossil will start the first snapshot to venti so disk
#will be crazy for a little while.
#
#Take a coffe in the mean while, and later follow with the
#configuration instructions.
#
# * Add glenda to sys and adm groups
#
#! % con /srv/fscons
#! prompt: fsys main
#! main: uname sys +glenda
#! main: uname adm + glenda
#
# * Configure minimal NDB
#
#! ipnet=devel.net ip=192.168.1.1 ipmask=255.255.255.0
#! ipgw=192.168.1.1
#! dns=130.206.1.3
#! fs=kenshin
#! auth=kenshin
#! authdom=lloth.net
#!
#! sys=kenshin ip=192.168.1.200 ether=000c29a15062
#! dom=kenshin.devel.net
#! bootf=/386/9pccpuf
#! proto=il
#
# * Set up the internet connection through your gateway
#
#! % ip/ipconfig -g 192.168.1.1 ether /net/ether0 192.168.1.200 255.255.255.0
#! % echo refresh > /net/cs
#! % echo refresh > /net/dns
#! % ip/ping www.google.com
#
#If you can't reach google look through the wiki and 9fans archives
#to configure your network.
#
# * Update your plan9 installation from sources
#
#! % pull -v
#
# * Compile the cpu/auth/fileserver standalone kernel and install it
#
#! % cd /sys/src/9/pc
#! % mk 'CONF=pccpuf' install
#! % 9fat:
#! % cp 9pccpuf.gz /n/9fat/
#! % acme /n/9fat/plan9.ini set the bootfile to 9pccpuf.gz
#
# * Set up boot process for a cpu
#
#! % acme /rc/bin/cpurc
#
#Put the ip/ipconfig line to boot with network configured before the
#ndb/cs line and uncomment the lines marked as needed for booting
#other systems and for auth servers
#
# * Add bootes user and add it to the groups sys and adm and remove
# user glenda
#
# * Initialize nvram storage
#! % echo blah > /dev/sdC0/nvram
#
# * Set up your timezone
#! % cp /adm/timezone/CET /adm/timezone/local
#
# * Edit /lib/ndb/auth and uncomment the lines
#
#! % con /srv/fscons
#! prompt: fsys main
#! main: uname bootes bootes
#! main: uname sys +bootes
#! main: uname adm +bootes
#! main: uname sys -glenda
#! main: uname adm -glenda
#
#4. FIRST BOOT
#
# * Set up the nvram
#! authid: bootes
#! authdom: devel.net
#! secstore: invent_a_secstore_password
#! password: invent_a_bootes_password
#
# * Initialize user
#! % /sys/lib/newuser
#This will not bring you to rio
#! % auth/changeuser bootes
#Put the same password you invented in the last step, you can enter
#the other data as you want
#
# * First Drawterm
#! c:\> drawterm-windows -a 192.168.1.200 -c 192.168.1.200
#! user[none]: bootes
#! password: you know what to put here :)
#
#This will give you a rio environment.
#
#5. Set up the multiboot environment
#
# * Set up the /cfg directory
#! % con /srv/fscons
#! prompt: fsys main
#! main: create /active/cfg sys sys d775
#! main: % mkdir /cfg/pxe
#! % mkdir /cfg/kenshin
#
# * Set up multiboot cpurc as jmk posted on 9fans (save the old one):
#
#------------------------------------------------------
#! #!/bin/rc
#! boottime=`{date}
#! boottime=$"boottime
#!
#! # parallelism for mk
#! NPROC=`{wc -l /dev/sysstat}
#! NPROC=`{echo $NPROC|sed 's/ .*//'}
#!
#! # get rid of need for dirs in /n
#! mntgen -s slashn && chmod 666 /srv/slashn
#!
#! # cs sets /dev/sysname
#! ndb/cs
#! sysname=`{cat /dev/sysname}
#! prompt=($sysname^'# ' ' ')
#!
#! # site specific startup
#! if(test -e /rc/bin/cpurc.local)
#! . /rc/bin/cpurc.local
#!
#! # cpu specific startup
#! if(test -e /cfg/$sysname/cpurc)
#! . /cfg/$sysname/cpurc
#!
#! # if we're not a server, start a dns resolver
#! if(! test -e /srv/dns)
#! ndb/dns -r
#!
#! # reboot if we lose the file server
#! aux/reboot
#!
#! # turn on dong's tcp port hog defense
#! if( test -e /net/tcp/clone)
#! echo -n tcpporthogdefense on > /net/tcp/0/ctl
#!
#! # keep other bootes processes from creating capabilities
#! rm '#¤/caphash' > /dev/null >[2=1]
#!
#! # start up internet if we don't already have an address
#! if(! grep u /net/ipselftab | grep -sv 127.0.0.1)
#! ip/ipconfig
#! if(! grep -s 127.0.0.1 /net/ipselftab)
#! ip/ipconfig loopback /dev/null 127.1
#!
#! # start listeners if it hasn't already been done (dicey check)
#! if(! netstat -n | grep -s 'tcp.*Listen.* (7|9|21|22|23|25|110|113|565|993|17007|17009|17010) .*')
#! aux/listen -q tcp
#! if(! netstat -n | grep -v 17008 | grep -s il.*Listen)
#! aux/listen -q il
#!
#! if(! ps|grep -s timesync)
#! aux/timesync -s /net -nl -d /sys/log/timesync.d oncore achille
#!
#! # cpu specific startup
#! if(test -e /cfg/$sysname/cpustart)
#! . /cfg/$sysname/cpustart
#!
#! exit 0
#------------------------------------------------------
#
# * Now use the old cpurc to generate what we need for the standalone
# server /cfg/kenshin/cpurc
#
#------------------------------------------------------
#! #!/bin/rc
#!
#! ip/ipconfig -g 192.168.1.1 ether /net/ether0 192.168.1.200 255.255.255.0
#!
#! ndb/dns -r
#!
#! prompt=($sysname^'# ' ' ')
#!
#! aux/timesync hora.rediris.es
#!
#! ip/dhcpd ip/tftpd
#!
#! auth/keyfs -wp -m /mnt/keys /adm/keys >/dev/null >[2=1]
#! auth/cron >>/sys/log/cron >[2=1] &
#!
#! aux/listen -q -t /rc/bin/service.auth -d /rc/bin/service il
#! aux/listen -q -t /rc/bin/service.auth -d /rc/bin/service tcp
#
#------------------------------------------------------
# * Make fossil listen for network connections. Generate a flproto
# file like:
#
#! cpu% cat flproto
#! fsys main config /dev/sdC0/fossil
#! fsys main open -c 3000
#! fsys main snaptime -s 60 -a 0500 -t 2880
#! listen tcp!*!564
#! cpu% cat flproto | fossil/conf -w /dev/sdC0/fossil
#
#6. Test the new cpurc files, so reboot the machine
#
#If something fails, i hope the error message would be enought to let
#you fix the problem :)
#
#7. Now create other virtual machine.
#
# * This one will need only a very small disk to store nvram. Will be
# enough with 1Kb but vmware will only let you choose 0.1GB, that is
# 100Mb.
#
#8. Add a new machine
#
# * Set up the NDB
#
#------------------------------------------------------
#! sys=ant ip=192.168.1.201 ether=000c29a15062
#! dom=ant.lloth.net
#! bootf=/386/9pxeload
#! proto=il
#------------------------------------------------------
#
#You will need to put the mac of the virtual machine so check it on
#your virtual machine ( in vmware set up to boot from network and
#copy the mac address )
#
# * Set up the /cfg entry
#
#Create a file ith the mac address as name
#! % acme /cfg/pxe/mac
#
#That file must contain a plan9.ini file
#------------------------------------------------------
#! bootfile=ether0!/386/9pccpu
#! bootargs=tcp!192.168.1.200!564
#!
#! *nomp=1
#! *nodumpstack=1
#! partition=new
#------------------------------------------------------
#
#- Create the cpurc for this machine under /cfg/ant/cpurc
#
#------------------------------------------------------
#! #!/bin/rc
#!
#! prompt=($sysname^'# ' ' ')
#!
#! aux/timesync hora.rediris.es
#!
#! aux/listen -q -t /rc/bin/service.auth -d /rc/bin/service il
#! aux/listen -q -t /rc/bin/service.auth -d /rc/bin/service tcp
#------------------------------------------------------
#9. Boot the new cpu machine
#
# * It will ask you for the nvram data, but this time you haven't
# created the partition, so it will fail to store it.
#
# * Create the nvram partition as follows:
#
#! % disk/mbr /dev/sdC0/data
#! % disk/fdisk /dev/sdC0/data
#! >>> a p0 start
#! cylinder: 0
#! end [0..208] 208
#! >>> w
#! >>> q
#! % disk/prep /dev/sdC0/plan9
#! >>> a 9fat
#! start sector: 0
#! end [0..209715] 200000
#! >>> a nvram start
#! sector: 200000
#! end [200000..209715] 209715
#! >>> w
#! >>> q
#! % disk/fdisk -p /dev/sdC0/data > /dev/sdC0/ctl
#
# * Reboot the cpu server and put the hostid info again
#
#Now we got the first machine booted from network up and running
#
#10. Testing auth
#
#cpu% cpu -h ant -c rc
#! Adding key: dom=lloth.net proto=p9sk1
#! user[bootes]: bootes
#! password:
#!
#! cpu% cat /dev/sysname
#! antcpu%
#
# * We can log to the cpu server and run tasks there
#
#Now that we have two machines, we can configure our prompt to show
#us where we are. Put this on /usr/bootes/lib/profile
#
#! fn cd { builtin cd $1;awd; prompt=(`{cat /dev/sysname}^' '^`{pwd}^'%' ' ') }
#!
#! cpu% fn cd { builtin cd $1;awd; prompt=(`{cat /dev/sysname}^' '^`{pwd}^'% ' ' ') }
#! cpu% cd
#! kenshin /usr/bootes% acme lib/profile
#! kenshin /usr/bootes% cpu -h ant -c rc
#! ant /usr/bootes%
#! ant /usr/bootes%
#! ant /usr/bootes%
#
#Usually the path is too fancy.
#
#11. Clone a machine and start up a new cpu server
#
#vmware 5 will let you clone machines, so i upgraded to it. I will
#not explain how to clone vmware machines as may be you just used
#other virtualization software (or even the real hardware)
#
#To start up a new server, when we have the machine ready, and its
#MAC address written somewhere is:
#
# * Set up the NDB file with the new machine
# * Set up the /cfg environment for that machine
#! /cfg/pxe/mac file
#! /cfg/system_name/cpurc
# * and boot it from the network
#
#I created 5 machines with 64MB of ram each one.
#
#As terminal i will use drawterm, as i upgraded to vmware 5, and vga
#is not supported and there are problems with cut&paste. . .
#
#12. Adding users to the playground
#
#In the console of kenshin our main file server/auth/cpu we can add
#users as described in the wiki.
#
#! % auth/changeuser gdiaz
#! % con/srv/fscons
#! prompt: fsys main
#! main: uname gdiaz gdiaz
#! %
#
#Now i can drawterm with the new user
#
#And make my first distributed application with plan9 :)
