How to add a new CDS.
Last modified: 2016-02-18 01:13:32 EST
Description of problem: There's no description how to add a new CDS after RHUI has been deployed. It'd better add it. Here's an example of how to do that. =========== We suppose the hostname of the new CDS as cds03.example.com. 1. Generate SSL cert for the new CDS ------ # mkdir -p /root/work/pki # cd /root/work/pki # cat <<EOF > ssl.conf [ req ] prompt = no distinguished_name = dn [dn] CN=cds03.example.com ST=California C=US EOF # openssl req -batch -config ssl.conf -nodes -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout ssl_cds03.pem -out ssl_cds03.csr # openssl x509 -req -days 3650 -CA /etc/pki/CA/certs/rhui-ca.crt -CAkey /etc/pki/CA/private/rhui-ca-key.pem -in ssl_cds03.csr -out ssl_cds03.crt ------ 2. Prepare the answer file and generate RPM for the new CDS. ------ # cd /root/work # cat <<EOF > answer.txt [general] version: 2.0 dest_dir: /tmp/rhui qpid_ca: /etc/pki/rhua/qpid-ca.crt qpid_client: /etc/pki/rhua/qpid-client.crt qpid_nss_db: /etc/pki/rhua/qpid-nss [rhua] rpm_name: rh-rhua01-config hostname: rhua01.example.com ssl_cert: /etc/pki/rhua/rhua-ssl-cert.crt ssl_key: /etc/pki/rhua/rhua-ssl-key.pem ca_cert: /etc/pki/CA/certs/rhui-ca.crt [cds-3] rpm_name: rh-cds03-config hostname: cds03.example.com ssl_cert: /root/work/pki/ssl_cds03.crt ssl_key: /root/work/pki/ssl_cds03.pem EOF # rhui-installer answer.txt ------ Note: you should specify QPID/SSL cert files which are already installed in RHUA for the [general] and [rhua] section. The "ca_cert" entiry should be one for your own CA cert. Finally, install /tmp/rhui/rh-cds03-config-2.0-2.el6.noarch.rpm in cds03.example.com.
We will add a "repeat for each new CDS" type of comment to section "3.2 Answers file" or whatever the equivalent 2.1 section is.
in 2.1 has been added this note in 3.3 procedure: "To create a new CDS after Red Hat Update Infrastructure is deployed, please refer to Section 3.3, “Adding New CDS”." with link. Moving bug to VERIFIED.
Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team. New Contents: In the Red Hat Update Infrastructure Installation Guide, no description existed for adding a new CDS after RHUI deployment. This fix adds a note with a cross-link to the procedure for adding new CDS, which provides users with the necessary documentation.
