Importing Linux ISOs on the Virtual Appliance for
Operating System Deployment
The following steps provide instructions to import Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 ISO on the ASM virtual
appliance for Operating System Deployment.
1. Log in to virtual appliance with the user name delladmin.
2. Copy the ISO file to the directory /var/lib/razor/repo-store/.
3. To create a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.5 repository, create a /tmp/rhel65_repo.json file with the
following content:
{
“name”: “<your rhel repo name>”,
“iso-url”: file:///var/lib/razor/repo-store/<Red Hat ISO name>.iso
}
4. To register the .iso file, run the following command using the content file created in step 3. The
example here uses the
rhel65_repo.json file created in the earlier step.
sudo razor create-repo --json /tmp/rhel65_repo.json
5. To verify whether or not the repository is created, run:
sudo razor repos
6. Change directory to /var/lib/razor/repo-store/rhel65 directory. If the operating system files are
already available, continue to Step 7. Otherwise, run the following commands to extract the .iso file
from the directory /var/lib/razor/repo-store to the directory /var/lib/razor/repo-store/rhel65. Make
sure that the Linux .iso file is available in “repo-store” directory where you run the following
commands.
“sudo mount -o loop /var/lib/razor/repo-store/<RHEL ISO NAME>.iso /mnt”
“sudo rsync -av /mnt/* /var/lib/razor/rep-store/<your rhel repo name>”
“sudo umount /mnt”
