Mtrberzi: /* Certificate Location */ prometheus

== GlobalSign ==

The CSC currently has an SSL Certificate from GlobalSign for *.csclub.uwaterloo.ca provided at no cost to us through IST. GlobalSign likes to take a long time to respond to certificate signing requests (CSR) for wildcard certs, so our CSR really needs to be handed off to IST at least 2 weeks in advance. You can do it sooner – the certificate expiry date will be the old expiry date + 1 year (+ a bonus ) Having an invalid cert for any length of time leads to terrible breakage, followed by terrible workarounds and prolonged problems.

When the certificate is due to expire in a month or two, syscom should (but apparently doesn't always) get an email notification. This will include a renewal link. Otherwise, use the [https://uwaterloo.ca/information-systems-technology/about/organizational-structure/information-security-services/certificate-authority/globalsign-signed-x5093-certificates/self-service-globalsign-ssl-certificates IST-CA self service system]. Please keep a copy of the key, CSR and (once issued) certificate in <tt>/home/sysadmin/certs</tt>. The OpenSSL examples linked there are good to generate a 2048-bit RSA key and a corresponding CSR. It's probably a good idea to change the private key (as it's not that much effort anyways). Just sure your CSR is for <tt>*.csclub.uwaterloo.ca</tt>.

At the self-service portal, these options worked in 2013. If you need IST assistance, [mailto:ist-ca@uwaterloo.ca ist-ca@uwaterloo.ca] is the email address you should contact.
Products: OrganizationSSL
SSL Certificate Type: Wildcard SSL Certificate
Validity Period: 1 year
Are you switching from a Competitor? No, I am not switching
Are you renewing this Certificate? Yes (paste current certificate)
30-day bonus: Yes (why not?)
Add specific Subject Alternative Names (SANs): No (*.csclub.uwaterloo.ca automatically adds csclub.uwaterloo.ca as a SAN)
Enter Certificate Signing Request (CSR): Yes (paste CSR)

== Certificate Location ==

Keep a copy of newly generated certificates in /home/sysadmin/certs on the NFS server (currently [[Machine_List#aspartame|aspartame]]).

A list of places you'll need to put the new certificate to keep our services running. Private key (if applicable) should be kept next to the certificate with the extension .key.

* caffeine:/etc/ssl/private/csclub-wildcard.crt (for Apache)
* coffee:/etc/ssl/private/csclub.uwaterloo.ca (for PostgreSQL and MariaDB)
* mail:/etc/ssl/private/csclub-wildcard.crt (for Apache, Postfix and Dovecot)
* rt:/etc/ssl/private/csclub-wildcard.crt (for Apache)
* potassium-benzoate:/etc/ssl/private/csclub-wildcard.crt (for nginx)
* auth1:/etc/ssl/private/csclub-wildcard.crt (for slapd)
* auth2:/etc/ssl/private/csclub-wildcard.crt (for slapd)
* logstash:/etc/ssl/private/csclub-wildcard.crt (for nginx) [temporarily down 2020]
* mattermost:/etc/ssl/private/csclub-wildcard.crt (for nginx)
* load-balancer-0(1|2):/etc/ssl/private/csclub.uwaterloo.ca (for haproxy) [temporarily down 2020]
* chat:/etc/ssl/private/csclub-wildcard-chain.crt (for nginx)
* prometheus:/etc/ssl/private/csclub-wildcard-chain.crt (for Apache)

Some services (e.g. Dovecot, Postfix) prefer to have the certificate chain in one file. Concatenate the appropriate intermediate root to the end of the certificate and store this as csclub-wildcard-chain.crt.

== letsencrypt ==

We support letsencrypt for our virtual hosts with custom domains. We use the <tt>cerbot</tt> from debian repositories with a configuration file at <tt>/etc/letsencrypt/cli.ini</tt>, and a systemd timer to handle renewals.

The setup for a new domain is:

# Become <tt>certbot</tt> on caffine with <tt>sudo -u certbot bash</tt> or similar.
# Run <tt>certbot certonly -c /etc/letsencrypt/cli.ini -d DOMAIN --logs-dir /tmp</tt>. The logs-dir isn't important and is only needed for troubleshooting.
# Set up the Apache site configuration using the example below. (apache config is in /etc/apache2) Note the permanent redirect to https.
# Make sure to commit your changes when you're done.
# Reloading apache config is <tt>sudo systemctl reload apache2</tt>.

Mtrberzi: ebtables fix

== Machine setup ==

=== Disk configuration ===

A block device with lost of disk space (to be mounted at /var/lib/nova/instances)

=== Networking configuration ===

'''Do not register the IPv6 address in DNS. This may cause issues with OpenStack services.'''

We will be using 2 interfaces on the machine:

* 1gbps for management (VLAN 529 (CSC Cloud Management))
* 10gbps for VMs (VLAN 134 (MSO), 425 (CSC Cloud))

==== Fix ebtables ====

<pre>
update-alternatives --config ebtables
</pre>

and choose "ebtables-legacy". This is necessary to work around missing features in ebtables-nft.

==== <code>/etc/sysctl.d/10-ipv6.conf</code> ====

<pre># Disable autoconf
net.ipv6.conf.all.autoconf=0
net.ipv6.conf.default.autoconf=0

# Stop accepting router advertisments
net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_ra=0
net.ipv6.conf.default.accept_ra=0

# Do not use temporary addresses
net.ipv6.conf.all.use_tempaddr=0
net.ipv6.conf.default.use_tempaddr=0</pre>

==== <code>/etc/network/interfaces</code> ====

Configure the switch port with VLAN 529 as the untagged VLAN, and VLANs 134 and 425 as the tagged VLANs.

<pre># Management interface

= Web Server =
You are highly encouraged to avoid running anything that's not directly related to your CSC webspace on our web server. We have plenty of general-use machines; please use those instead. You can even edit web pages from any other machine--usually the only reason you'd *need* to be on caffeine is for database access.

== ''caffeine'' ==

Caffeine is the Computer Science Club's web server. It serves websites, databases for websites, and a large amount of other services.

==== Specs ====

* currently a virtual machine hosted on phosphoric-acid
** 12 vCPUs
** 32GB of RAM

==== Services ====

* Club and member web sites with [[Apache]]
* [[MySQL]] databases
* [[PostgreSQL]] databases
* [[ceo]] daemon
* mail was migrated to [[#mail|mail]]

= General-Use Servers =

These machines can be used for (nearly) anything you like (though be polite and remember that these are shared machines). Recall that when you signed the Machine Usage Agreement, you promised not to use these machines to generate profit (so no cryptocurrency mining).

For computationally-intensive jobs (CPU/memory bound) we recommend running on high-fructose-corn-syrup, carbonated-water, sorbitol, mannitol, or corn-syrup, listed in roughly decreasing order of available resources. For low-intensity interactive jobs, such as IRC clients, we recommend running on neotame. If you have a long-running computationally intensive job, it's good to nice[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nice_(Unix)] your process, and possibly let syscom know too.

==== Speakers ====
Strombola used to have integrated 5.1 channel sound before we got new speakers and moved audio stuff to nullsleep.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

== ''xylitol'' ==

xylitol is a Dell PowerEdge R815 donated by CSCF. It is primarily a container host for services previously hosted on aspartame and dextrose, including munin, rt, mathnews, auth1, and dns1. It was provisioned with the intent to replace both of those hosts.

==== Specs ====

* Dual AMD Opteron 6176 (2.3 GHz, 48 cores total)

** Soon to be 2x1TB in MegaRAID1
* http://www.dell.com/support/home/ca/en/cabsdt1/product-support/servicetag/51TYRG1/configuration

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

== ''auth2'' ==

Container on [[#cobalamin|cobalamin]].

==== Services ====

* [[LDAP]] secondary
* [[Kerberos]] secondary

== ''phlogiston'' ==

phlogiston is a NetApp FAS3000 series fileserver donated by CSCF. It, along with its sibling psilodump, host disk shelves exported as iSCSI block devices.

phlogiston is turned off and should remain that way. It is misconfigured to have its drives overlap with those owned by psilodump, and if it is turned on, it will likely cause irreparable data loss.

These machines can be used for (nearly) anything you like (though be polite and remember that these are shared machines). Recall that when you signed the Machine Usage Agreement, you promised not to use these machines to generate profit (so no cryptocurrency mining).

For computationally-intensive jobs (CPU/memory bound) we recommend running on high-fructose-corn-syrup, carbonated-water, sorbitol, mannitol, or corn-syrup, listed in roughly decreasing order of available resources. For low-intensity interactive jobs, such as IRC clients, we recommend running on neotame. If you have a long-running computationally intensive job, it's good to nice[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nice_(Unix)] your process, and possibly let syscom know too.

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

These machines can be used for (nearly) anything you like (though be polite and remember that these are shared machines). Recall that when you signed the Machine Usage Agreement, you promised not to use these machines to generate profit (so no cryptocurrency mining).

For computationally-intensive jobs (CPU/memory bound) we recommend running on high-fructose-corn-syrup, carbonated-water, sorbitol, mannitol, or corn-syrup, listed in roughly decreasing order of available resources. For low-intensity interactive jobs, such as IRC clients, we recommend running on neotame. If you have a long-running computationally intensive job, it's good to nice[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nice_(Unix)] your process, and possibly let syscom know too.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

* http://www.dell.com/support/home/ca/en/cabsdt1/product-support/servicetag/51TYRG1/configuration

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

New CSC Machine

2020-02-04T04:12:19Z

Mtrberzi: firmware updates

= Firmware Updates =

Vendors such as Dell provide firmware updates that should be applied before putting new machines into service. Even if the machine's warranty has expired, security updates are still made available.

It is recommended to use the following sequence when updating firmware on the Dell PowerEdge servers ([https://downloads.dell.com/solutions/general-solution-resources/White%20Papers/Recommended%20Workflow%20for%20Performing%20Firmware%20Updates%20on%20PowerEdge%20Servers.pdf]):

# iDRAC
# Lifecycle Controller
# BIOS
# Diagnostics
# OS Driver Pack
# RAID
# NIC
# PSU
# CPLD
# Other update

= Booting =

* Put the TFTP image in place (if dist-arch pair installed before, you may skip this).
e.g. extract http://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ubuntu/dists/oneiric/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz to caffeine:/srv/tftp/oneiric-amd64

* Force network boot in the BIOS. This may be called "Legacy LAN" or other such cryptic things. If this doesn't work, boot from CD or USB instead.

It is preferred to use the "alternate" Ubuntu installer image, based on debian-installer, instead of the Ubiquity installer. This installer supports software RAID and LVM out of the box, and will generally make your life easier. If installing Debian, this is the usual installer, so don't sweat it.

* Most of our newer servers (e.g. PowerEdge R815) need non-free firmware in order to boot. This means that if you are using a new netboot image, it is highly recommended to include the entire non-free firmware bundle in the boot image. See [https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/NetbootFirmware] for more information.

= Installing =

== debian-installer ==

At least in expert mode, you can choose a custom mirror (top of the countries list) and give the path for mirror directly. This will make installation super-fast compared to installing from anywhere else.

Please install to LVM volumes, as this is our standard configuration on all machines where possible. It allows more flexible partitioning across available volumes. Since GRUB 2, even /boot may be on LVM; this is the preferred configuration for simplicity, except when legacy partitioning setups make this inconvenient.

You may enable unattended upgrades, but do not enable Canonical's remote management service or any such nonsense. This is mostly a straightforward Debian/Ubuntu install.

== Ubiquity ==

Ubiquity is the Ubuntu GUI installer. For it to have lvm support, run:
apt-get install lvm2

If you still can't see the partitions (even if lvscan sees them, but no devices exist), run <tt>vgscan</tt> and <tt>vgchange -ay</tt> as root. Now the partitioner should be able to see them. We prefer to use LVM for partitions. Since GRUB 2, even /boot may be on LVM; this is the preferred configuration for simplicity, except when legacy partitioning setups make this inconvenient.

After installing with Ubiquity, you must also add LVM support to the newly installed system, and in particular its initramfs.

mount /dev/vg0/root /mnt
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot
chroot /mnt
apt-get install lvm2

You should see an update-initramfs update. Reboot.

= After Installing =

Add the machine's name to ~git/public/hosts.git, and run the ansible playbook (https://git.uwaterloo.ca/csc/playbooks/blob/master/update-hosts.yml) to distribute the updated hosts file to all machines.

== apt ==

If you did not during installation, change all references in <tt>/etc/apt/sources.list</tt> to use <tt>mirror</tt> instead of the usual mirrors.

Also add support for the CSC packages. Add the following to <tt>/etc/apt/sources.list.d/csclub.list</tt> (or copy from another host):

deb http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ <distribution> main contrib non-free
deb-src http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ <distribution> main contrib non-free

You'll also need the CSC archive signing key (if <tt>curl</tt> is not installed, install it).
curl -s http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/csclub.asc | apt-key add -

You should now run <tt>apt-get update</tt> to reflect these changes.

Next, install <tt>inapt</tt> (it is in the CSC Debian archive). If it hasn't previously been built for the current platform, clone and build it (TODO: describe how to do this).

Clone <tt>~git/public/packages.git</tt>, update it if necessary (notably updating <tt>nodes.ia</tt> to reflect the distribution and role of the machine), then run:
inapt *.ia

(Due to a bug, if a warning is thrown, this will segfault. Until fixed, just temporarily remove whatever packages it complains about from the list.)

Warning: this will take a long time due to the large number of packages being installed. Some of the below can be done once the relevant packages are installed, but while other packages are still being installed.

For unattended upgrades in the future, install the <tt>unattended-upgrades</tt> package and copy <tt>/etc/apt/apt.conf</tt> from another host.

== network ==

Note that inapt current uninstalls NetworkManager, which is what Ubuntu uses by default to configure the network. Once this completes, open <tt>/etc/network/interfaces</tt> and set up a static networking configuration (otherwise, networking will not come back up on reboot). It should look something like this (NOTE: csc-storage is only for servers in the machine room):

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 129.97.134.xxx
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 129.97.134.1

iface eth0 inet6 static
address 2620:101:f000:4901:c5c:XXXX
netmask 64
gateway 2620:101:f000:4901::1

# csc-storage
auto eth0.530
iface eth0.530 inet static
address 172.19.168.xxx
netmask 255.255.255.224
vlan-raw-device eth0

iface eth0.530 inet6 static
address fd74:6b6a:8eca:4903:c5c::xx
netmask 64

== Keys ==

If this is a reinstall of an existing host, copy back the SSH host keys and <tt>/etc/krb5.keytab</tt> from its former incarnation. Otherwise, create a new Kerberos principal and copy the keytab over, as follows (run from the host in question):
kadmin -p sysadmin/admin # or any other admin principal; the password for this one is the usual root password
addprinc -randkey host/[hostname].csclub.uwaterloo.ca
ktadd host/[hostname].csclub.uwaterloo.ca

This will generate a new principal (you can skip this step if one already exists) and add it to the local Kerberos keytab.

Also copy <tt>/etc/ssl/certs/GlobalSign_Intermediate_Root_SHA256_G2.pem</tt> from another host, as many of our services use a certificate issued by this CA.

== Configuration ==

=== General ===

The following config files are needed to work in the CSC environment (examples given below for an office terminal; perhaps refer to another host if preferred).

<tt>/etc/nsswitch.conf</tt>
# /etc/nsswitch.conf

kdc = kdc1.csclub.uwaterloo.ca
kdc = kdc2.csclub.uwaterloo.ca
admin_server = kadmin.csclub.uwaterloo.ca
}
(rest omitted for brevity)

Update: <tt>allow_weak_crypto</tt> is basically a no-op in recent Kerberos versions - but this is not a problem as any linux kernel with version >= 2.6.38.2 can use any cipher available to the kernel to grab tickets from the KDC for the purpose of NFS sec=krb5. Notably, this means you can use ciphersuites less craptastic than des-cbc-crc (the only one that used to work prior to this kernel revision) for NFS sec=krb5 mounts. Therefore, <tt>allow_weak_crypto</tt> has been removed from /etc/krb5.conf on all our machines.

Furthermore, the lines <tt>dns_lookup_kdc</tt> and <tt>dns_lookup_realm</tt> have been added - they are needed to stop the KDC from throwing its arms in the air and giving up if IST's DNS servers ever explode - an event that has happened in the recent past far more often than I'd like it to.

Notably, <tt>allow_weak_crypto</tt> is currently needed to mount <tt>/users</tt> (/music and <tt>/scratch</tt> is sec=sys and thus will always mount, even when krb5 is down and/or broken). Otherwise, you will get a mysterious "permission denied" error (even though the server claims to have authenticated the mount successfully).

<tt>/etc/pam.d/common-account</tt>
#
# /etc/pam.d/common-account - authorization settings common to all services
#

# here are the per-package modules (the "Primary" block)
account [success=1 new_authtok_reqd=done default=ignore] pam_unix.so
# here's the fallback if no module succeeds
account requisite pam_deny.so
# prime the stack with a positive return value if there isn't one already;
# this avoids us returning an error just because nothing sets a success code
# since the modules above will each just jump around
account required pam_permit.so
# and here are more per-package modules (the "Additional" block)
account required pam_krb5.so minimum_uid=10000
# end of pam-auth-update config

# Make sure the user is up to date. System accounts and syscom are exempt.
account [success=2 default=ignore] pam_succeed_if.so quiet uid < 10000
account [success=1 default=ignore] pam_succeed_if.so quiet user ingroup syscom
account required pam_csc.so

This file is notably different on syscom-only hosts. Look at an existing syscom-only host to see the difference.

Alter <tt>/etc/default/nfs-common</tt> to enable <tt>statd</tt>, and more importantly <tt>gssd</tt> (needed for Kerberos NFS mounts). Start both daemons manually for now.

Add <tt>/users</tt>, <tt>/music</tt> and <tt>/scratch</tt> to <tt>/etc/fstab</tt> (as appropriate for the machine's role), make their mount points and mount them. Note that <tt>/music</tt> and <tt>/scratch</tt> are sec=sys whereas /users is sec=krb5 (with exceptions granted on a case-by-case basis for servers only, office terminals are always sec=krb5 for security reasons).

To allow single sign-on as <tt>root</tt> (primarily useful for pushing files to all machines simultaneously), put the following in <tt>/root/.k5login</tt>:
sysadmin/admin@CSCLUB.UWATERLOO.CA

Also copy the following files from another CSC host:
* <tt>/etc/ssh/ssh_config</tt> and <tt>/etc/ssh/sshd_config</tt> (for single sign-on)
* <tt>/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts</tt> (to remove hostkey warnings within our network)
* <tt>/etc/hosts</tt> (for host tab completion and emergency name resolution)
* <tt>/etc/resolv.conf</tt> (to use IST's nameservers and search csclub/uwaterloo domains. Only required if you are not using <tt>/etc/network/interfaces</tt> to configure DNS)

=== Display Manager ===

LightDM (with unity-greeter) is the current display manager of choice for CSC office terminals. Copy <tt>/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf</tt> from another CSC machine to configure it properly. If kdm or another display manager gets installed, please ensure that you continue to choose LightDM as the default display manager.

Please leave AccountsService enabled, as LightDM and certain parts of the GNOME packages work better when it is available.

The Unity greeter configuration is now in gsettings. We currently have a novelty wallpaper configured. To configure this, copy <tt>/usr/local/share/backgrounds/tarkin.png</tt> from another machine and run:

sudo -u lightdm dbus-launch gsettings set com.canonical.unity-greeter background /usr/local/share/backgrounds/tarkin.png

=== User-Defined Session ===

For some reason, ubuntu does not install a session file for a session that just launches whatever's in the user's ~/.xsession. To fix this, put the following into <tt>/usr/share/xsessions/xsession.desktop</tt>:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=User-defined session
Exec=/etc/X11/Xsession

=== Audio ===

On an office terminal, copy <tt>/etc/pulse/default.pa</tt> from another office terminal.

If this is to be the machine that actually plays audio (currently <tt>nullsleep</tt>), the setup is slightly more complicated. You'll need to set up MPD and PulseAudio to receive connections, and store the PulseAudio cookie in <tt>~audio</tt>, with appropriate permissions so that only the <tt>audio</tt> group can access it. If this is a new audio machine, you'll also need to change <tt>default.pa</tt> on all office terminals to point to it.

=== Tweaks ===

On Ubuntu precise, even when <tt>gnome-keyring</tt> is uninstalled, it leaves a config file behind that causes error messages. Remove <tt>/etc/pkcs11/modules/gnome-keyring-module</tt> to fix this.

On Ubuntu saucy or newer, edit <tt>/etc/sysctl.d/10-magic-sysrq</tt> at change the value 244.

== Records ==

You probably already created the host in the University IPAM system beforehand. If not, please do so.

Please also add the host to the [[Machine List]] here on the Wiki, and to <tt>/users/syscom/csc-machines</tt> (and <tt>csc-office-machines</tt>, if applicable).

== Munin (System Monitoring) ==

If the new machine is not a container, you probably want to have it participate in the Munin cluster. Run <tt>apt-get install munin-node</tt> to install the monitoring client, then
edit the file /etc/munin/munin-node.conf. Look for a line that says <tt>allow ^127\.0\.0\.1$</tt> and add the following on a new line immediately below it:
<tt>allow ^129\.97\.134\.51$</tt> (this is the IP address for munin.csclub). Save the file, then <tt>/etc/init.d/munin-node restart</tt> and <tt>update-rc.d munin-node defaults</tt>.

Then, ssh into munin.csclub and edit the file /etc/munin/munin.conf and add the following lines to the end:
<tt>

[NEW-MACHINE-NAME.csclub] 
addr 129.97.134.### 
use_node_name yes

</tt>

= New Distribution =

If you're adding a new distribution, there a couple of steps you'll need to take in updating the CSClub Debian repository on [[Machine_List#sodium_benzoate|sodium-benzoate/mirror]].

The steps to add a new Debian release (in the examples, jessie) is as follows, modify as necessary:

=== Step 0: Create a GPG key ===

Use "gpg --gen-key" or something like that. Skip this if you already have one.

=== Step 1: Add to Uploaders ===

The /srv/debian/conf/uploaders file on mirror contains the list of people who can upload. Add your GPG key id to this file. Use "gpg --list-secret-keys" to find out the key ID. You also need to import your key into the mirror's gpg homedir as follows:

gpg --export $KEYID | sudo env GNUPGHOME=/srv/debian/gpg gpg --import

You only need to do this step once.

=== Step 2: Add Distro ===

Add a new section to /srv/debian/conf/distributions:

Origin: CSC
Label: Debian
Codename: '''jessie'''
Architectures: alpha amd64 i386 mips mipsel sparc powerpc armel source
Components: main contrib non-free
Uploaders: uploaders
Update: dell chrome
SignWith: yes
Log: jessie.log
--changes notifier

And update the '''Allow''' line in /srv/debian/conf/incoming:

Allow: '''jessie>jessie''' oldstable>squeeze stable>wheezy lucid>lucid maverick>maverick oneiric>oneiric precise>precise quantal>quantal

=== Step 3: Update from Sources ===

Run:

sudo env GNUPGHOME=/srv/debian/gpg rrr-update

If all went well you should see the new distribution listed at http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/dists/

=== Step 4: CSC Packages ===

Now that we've got our new distribution set up we need to generate our packages and have them uploaded. Namely, ceo, libpam-csc & inapt. Using libpam-csc as an example:

Get the package:

git clone ~git/public/libpam-csc.git
cd libpam-csc

Update change log:

EMAIL=[you]@csclub.uwaterloo.ca NAME="Your Name" dch -i

Update as necessary, i.e:

libpam-csc (1.10'''jessie0''') '''jessie'''; urgency=low

* Packaging for jessie.

-- Your Name <[you]@csclub.uwaterloo.ca> Thu, 10 Oct 2013 22:08:48 -0400

Build! (You may need to install various dependencies, which it will yell at you if you don't have.)

debuild -k'''YOURKEYID'''

Yay, it built now let's upload it to the repo. The build process which create a PACKAGE.changes file in the parent directory (replace PACKAGE with the actual package name).

dupload libpam-csc_1.10jessie0_amd64.changes

Finally, log into mirror and type "sudo rrr-incoming". This is supposed to happen once every few minutes however it is always faster to run it manually.

And you're done. Just repeat the previous bit for other csc packages.

Mtrberzi: /* General-Use Servers */

= Web Server =
You are highly encouraged to avoid running anything that's not directly related to your CSC webspace on our web server. We have plenty of general-use machines; please use those instead. You can even edit web pages from any other machine--usually the only reason you'd *need* to be on caffeine is for database access.

== ''caffeine'' ==

Caffeine is the Computer Science Club's web server. It serves websites, databases for websites, and a large amount of other services.

These machines can be used for (nearly) anything you like (though be polite and remember that these are shared machines). Recall that when you signed the Machine Usage Agreement, you promised not to use these machines to generate profit (so no cryptocurrency mining).

For computationally-intensive jobs (CPU/memory bound) we recommend running on high-fructose-corn-syrup, carbonated-water, sorbitol, mannitol, or corn-syrup, listed in roughly decreasing order of available resources. For low-intensity interactive jobs, such as IRC clients, we recommend running on neotame. If you have a long-running computationally intensive job, it's good to nice[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nice_(Unix)] your process, and possibly let syscom know too.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]].

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

New CSC Machine

2019-10-07T00:07:16Z

Mtrberzi: add note about netboot firmware

= Booting =

* Put the TFTP image in place (if dist-arch pair installed before, you may skip this).
e.g. extract http://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ubuntu/dists/oneiric/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz to caffeine:/srv/tftp/oneiric-amd64

* Force network boot in the BIOS. This may be called "Legacy LAN" or other such cryptic things. If this doesn't work, boot from CD or USB instead.

It is preferred to use the "alternate" Ubuntu installer image, based on debian-installer, instead of the Ubiquity installer. This installer supports software RAID and LVM out of the box, and will generally make your life easier. If installing Debian, this is the usual installer, so don't sweat it.

* Most of our newer servers (e.g. PowerEdge R815) need non-free firmware in order to boot. This means that if you are using a new netboot image, it is highly recommended to include the entire non-free firmware bundle in the boot image. See [https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/NetbootFirmware] for more information.

= Installing =

== debian-installer ==

At least in expert mode, you can choose a custom mirror (top of the countries list) and give the path for mirror directly. This will make installation super-fast compared to installing from anywhere else.

Please install to LVM volumes, as this is our standard configuration on all machines where possible. It allows more flexible partitioning across available volumes. Since GRUB 2, even /boot may be on LVM; this is the preferred configuration for simplicity, except when legacy partitioning setups make this inconvenient.

You may enable unattended upgrades, but do not enable Canonical's remote management service or any such nonsense. This is mostly a straightforward Debian/Ubuntu install.

== Ubiquity ==

Ubiquity is the Ubuntu GUI installer. For it to have lvm support, run:
apt-get install lvm2

If you still can't see the partitions (even if lvscan sees them, but no devices exist), run <tt>vgscan</tt> and <tt>vgchange -ay</tt> as root. Now the partitioner should be able to see them. We prefer to use LVM for partitions. Since GRUB 2, even /boot may be on LVM; this is the preferred configuration for simplicity, except when legacy partitioning setups make this inconvenient.

After installing with Ubiquity, you must also add LVM support to the newly installed system, and in particular its initramfs.

mount /dev/vg0/root /mnt
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot
chroot /mnt
apt-get install lvm2

You should see an update-initramfs update. Reboot.

= After Installing =

Add the machine's name to ~git/public/hosts.git, and run the ansible playbook (https://git.uwaterloo.ca/csc/playbooks/blob/master/update-hosts.yml) to distribute the updated hosts file to all machines.

== apt ==

If you did not during installation, change all references in <tt>/etc/apt/sources.list</tt> to use <tt>mirror</tt> instead of the usual mirrors.

Also add support for the CSC packages. Add the following to <tt>/etc/apt/sources.list.d/csclub.list</tt> (or copy from another host):

deb http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ <distribution> main contrib non-free
deb-src http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ <distribution> main contrib non-free

You'll also need the CSC archive signing key (if <tt>curl</tt> is not installed, install it).
curl -s http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/csclub.asc | apt-key add -

You should now run <tt>apt-get update</tt> to reflect these changes.

Next, install <tt>inapt</tt> (it is in the CSC Debian archive). If it hasn't previously been built for the current platform, clone and build it (TODO: describe how to do this).

Clone <tt>~git/public/packages.git</tt>, update it if necessary (notably updating <tt>nodes.ia</tt> to reflect the distribution and role of the machine), then run:
inapt *.ia

(Due to a bug, if a warning is thrown, this will segfault. Until fixed, just temporarily remove whatever packages it complains about from the list.)

Warning: this will take a long time due to the large number of packages being installed. Some of the below can be done once the relevant packages are installed, but while other packages are still being installed.

For unattended upgrades in the future, install the <tt>unattended-upgrades</tt> package and copy <tt>/etc/apt/apt.conf</tt> from another host.

== network ==

Note that inapt current uninstalls NetworkManager, which is what Ubuntu uses by default to configure the network. Once this completes, open <tt>/etc/network/interfaces</tt> and set up a static networking configuration (otherwise, networking will not come back up on reboot). It should look something like this (NOTE: csc-storage is only for servers in the machine room):

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 129.97.134.xxx
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 129.97.134.1

iface eth0 inet6 static
address 2620:101:f000:4901:c5c:XXXX
netmask 64
gateway 2620:101:f000:4901::1

# csc-storage
auto eth0.530
iface eth0.530 inet static
address 172.19.168.xxx
netmask 255.255.255.224
vlan-raw-device eth0

iface eth0.530 inet6 static
address fd74:6b6a:8eca:4903:c5c::xx
netmask 64

== Keys ==

If this is a reinstall of an existing host, copy back the SSH host keys and <tt>/etc/krb5.keytab</tt> from its former incarnation. Otherwise, create a new Kerberos principal and copy the keytab over, as follows (run from the host in question):
kadmin -p sysadmin/admin # or any other admin principal; the password for this one is the usual root password
addprinc -randkey host/[hostname].csclub.uwaterloo.ca
ktadd host/[hostname].csclub.uwaterloo.ca

This will generate a new principal (you can skip this step if one already exists) and add it to the local Kerberos keytab.

Also copy <tt>/etc/ssl/certs/GlobalSign_Intermediate_Root_SHA256_G2.pem</tt> from another host, as many of our services use a certificate issued by this CA.

== Configuration ==

=== General ===

The following config files are needed to work in the CSC environment (examples given below for an office terminal; perhaps refer to another host if preferred).

<tt>/etc/nsswitch.conf</tt>
# /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try:

[realms]
CSCLUB.UWATERLOO.CA = {
kdc = kdc1.csclub.uwaterloo.ca
kdc = kdc2.csclub.uwaterloo.ca
admin_server = kadmin.csclub.uwaterloo.ca
}
(rest omitted for brevity)

Update: <tt>allow_weak_crypto</tt> is basically a no-op in recent Kerberos versions - but this is not a problem as any linux kernel with version >= 2.6.38.2 can use any cipher available to the kernel to grab tickets from the KDC for the purpose of NFS sec=krb5. Notably, this means you can use ciphersuites less craptastic than des-cbc-crc (the only one that used to work prior to this kernel revision) for NFS sec=krb5 mounts. Therefore, <tt>allow_weak_crypto</tt> has been removed from /etc/krb5.conf on all our machines.

Furthermore, the lines <tt>dns_lookup_kdc</tt> and <tt>dns_lookup_realm</tt> have been added - they are needed to stop the KDC from throwing its arms in the air and giving up if IST's DNS servers ever explode - an event that has happened in the recent past far more often than I'd like it to.

Notably, <tt>allow_weak_crypto</tt> is currently needed to mount <tt>/users</tt> (/music and <tt>/scratch</tt> is sec=sys and thus will always mount, even when krb5 is down and/or broken). Otherwise, you will get a mysterious "permission denied" error (even though the server claims to have authenticated the mount successfully).

<tt>/etc/pam.d/common-account</tt>
#
# /etc/pam.d/common-account - authorization settings common to all services
#

# here are the per-package modules (the "Primary" block)
account [success=1 new_authtok_reqd=done default=ignore] pam_unix.so
# here's the fallback if no module succeeds
account requisite pam_deny.so
# prime the stack with a positive return value if there isn't one already;
# this avoids us returning an error just because nothing sets a success code
# since the modules above will each just jump around
account required pam_permit.so
# and here are more per-package modules (the "Additional" block)
account required pam_krb5.so minimum_uid=10000
# end of pam-auth-update config

# Make sure the user is up to date. System accounts and syscom are exempt.
account [success=2 default=ignore] pam_succeed_if.so quiet uid < 10000
account [success=1 default=ignore] pam_succeed_if.so quiet user ingroup syscom
account required pam_csc.so

This file is notably different on syscom-only hosts. Look at an existing syscom-only host to see the difference.

Alter <tt>/etc/default/nfs-common</tt> to enable <tt>statd</tt>, and more importantly <tt>gssd</tt> (needed for Kerberos NFS mounts). Start both daemons manually for now.

Add <tt>/users</tt>, <tt>/music</tt> and <tt>/scratch</tt> to <tt>/etc/fstab</tt> (as appropriate for the machine's role), make their mount points and mount them. Note that <tt>/music</tt> and <tt>/scratch</tt> are sec=sys whereas /users is sec=krb5 (with exceptions granted on a case-by-case basis for servers only, office terminals are always sec=krb5 for security reasons).

To allow single sign-on as <tt>root</tt> (primarily useful for pushing files to all machines simultaneously), put the following in <tt>/root/.k5login</tt>:
sysadmin/admin@CSCLUB.UWATERLOO.CA

Also copy the following files from another CSC host:
* <tt>/etc/ssh/ssh_config</tt> and <tt>/etc/ssh/sshd_config</tt> (for single sign-on)
* <tt>/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts</tt> (to remove hostkey warnings within our network)
* <tt>/etc/hosts</tt> (for host tab completion and emergency name resolution)
* <tt>/etc/resolv.conf</tt> (to use IST's nameservers and search csclub/uwaterloo domains. Only required if you are not using <tt>/etc/network/interfaces</tt> to configure DNS)

=== Display Manager ===

LightDM (with unity-greeter) is the current display manager of choice for CSC office terminals. Copy <tt>/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf</tt> from another CSC machine to configure it properly. If kdm or another display manager gets installed, please ensure that you continue to choose LightDM as the default display manager.

Please leave AccountsService enabled, as LightDM and certain parts of the GNOME packages work better when it is available.

The Unity greeter configuration is now in gsettings. We currently have a novelty wallpaper configured. To configure this, copy <tt>/usr/local/share/backgrounds/tarkin.png</tt> from another machine and run:

sudo -u lightdm dbus-launch gsettings set com.canonical.unity-greeter background /usr/local/share/backgrounds/tarkin.png

=== User-Defined Session ===

For some reason, ubuntu does not install a session file for a session that just launches whatever's in the user's ~/.xsession. To fix this, put the following into <tt>/usr/share/xsessions/xsession.desktop</tt>:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=User-defined session
Exec=/etc/X11/Xsession

=== Audio ===

On an office terminal, copy <tt>/etc/pulse/default.pa</tt> from another office terminal.

If this is to be the machine that actually plays audio (currently <tt>nullsleep</tt>), the setup is slightly more complicated. You'll need to set up MPD and PulseAudio to receive connections, and store the PulseAudio cookie in <tt>~audio</tt>, with appropriate permissions so that only the <tt>audio</tt> group can access it. If this is a new audio machine, you'll also need to change <tt>default.pa</tt> on all office terminals to point to it.

=== Tweaks ===

On Ubuntu precise, even when <tt>gnome-keyring</tt> is uninstalled, it leaves a config file behind that causes error messages. Remove <tt>/etc/pkcs11/modules/gnome-keyring-module</tt> to fix this.

On Ubuntu saucy or newer, edit <tt>/etc/sysctl.d/10-magic-sysrq</tt> at change the value 244.

== Records ==

You probably already created the host in the University IPAM system beforehand. If not, please do so.

Please also add the host to the [[Machine List]] here on the Wiki, and to <tt>/users/syscom/csc-machines</tt> (and <tt>csc-office-machines</tt>, if applicable).

== Munin (System Monitoring) ==

If the new machine is not a container, you probably want to have it participate in the Munin cluster. Run <tt>apt-get install munin-node</tt> to install the monitoring client, then
edit the file /etc/munin/munin-node.conf. Look for a line that says <tt>allow ^127\.0\.0\.1$</tt> and add the following on a new line immediately below it:
<tt>allow ^129\.97\.134\.51$</tt> (this is the IP address for munin.csclub). Save the file, then <tt>/etc/init.d/munin-node restart</tt> and <tt>update-rc.d munin-node defaults</tt>.

Then, ssh into munin.csclub and edit the file /etc/munin/munin.conf and add the following lines to the end:
<tt>

[NEW-MACHINE-NAME.csclub] 
addr 129.97.134.### 
use_node_name yes

</tt>

= New Distribution =

If you're adding a new distribution, there a couple of steps you'll need to take in updating the CSClub Debian repository on [[Machine_List#sodium_benzoate|sodium-benzoate/mirror]].

The steps to add a new Debian release (in the examples, jessie) is as follows, modify as necessary:

=== Step 0: Create a GPG key ===

Use "gpg --gen-key" or something like that. Skip this if you already have one.

=== Step 1: Add to Uploaders ===

The /srv/debian/conf/uploaders file on mirror contains the list of people who can upload. Add your GPG key id to this file. Use "gpg --list-secret-keys" to find out the key ID. You also need to import your key into the mirror's gpg homedir as follows:

gpg --export $KEYID | sudo env GNUPGHOME=/srv/debian/gpg gpg --import

You only need to do this step once.

=== Step 2: Add Distro ===

Add a new section to /srv/debian/conf/distributions:

Origin: CSC
Label: Debian
Codename: '''jessie'''
Architectures: alpha amd64 i386 mips mipsel sparc powerpc armel source
Components: main contrib non-free
Uploaders: uploaders
Update: dell chrome
SignWith: yes
Log: jessie.log
--changes notifier

And update the '''Allow''' line in /srv/debian/conf/incoming:

Allow: '''jessie>jessie''' oldstable>squeeze stable>wheezy lucid>lucid maverick>maverick oneiric>oneiric precise>precise quantal>quantal

=== Step 3: Update from Sources ===

Run:

sudo env GNUPGHOME=/srv/debian/gpg rrr-update

If all went well you should see the new distribution listed at http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/dists/

=== Step 4: CSC Packages ===

Now that we've got our new distribution set up we need to generate our packages and have them uploaded. Namely, ceo, libpam-csc & inapt. Using libpam-csc as an example:

Get the package:

git clone ~git/public/libpam-csc.git
cd libpam-csc

Update change log:

EMAIL=[you]@csclub.uwaterloo.ca NAME="Your Name" dch -i

Update as necessary, i.e:

libpam-csc (1.10'''jessie0''') '''jessie'''; urgency=low

* Packaging for jessie.

-- Your Name <[you]@csclub.uwaterloo.ca> Thu, 10 Oct 2013 22:08:48 -0400

Build! (You may need to install various dependencies, which it will yell at you if you don't have.)

debuild -k'''YOURKEYID'''

Yay, it built now let's upload it to the repo. The build process which create a PACKAGE.changes file in the parent directory (replace PACKAGE with the actual package name).

dupload libpam-csc_1.10jessie0_amd64.changes

Finally, log into mirror and type "sudo rrr-incoming". This is supposed to happen once every few minutes however it is always faster to run it manually.

And you're done. Just repeat the previous bit for other csc packages.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

== ''xylitol'' ==

xylitol is a Dell PowerEdge R815 donated by CSCF. It is primarily a container host for services previously hosted on aspartame and dextrose, including munin, rt, mathnews, auth1, and dns1. It was provisioned with the intent to replace both of those hosts.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

Virtualization (LXC Containers)

2019-09-22T22:54:00Z

Mtrberzi: /* Migrating a container between hosts */

As of Fall 2009, we use [http://lxc.sourceforge.net/ Linux containers] to maintain virtual machines, most notably [[Machine_List#caffeine|caffeine]], which is hosted on [[Machine_List#glomag|glomag]]. The various commands to manipulate Linux containers are prefixed with "lxc-"; see their individual manpages for usage.

== Management Quick Guide ==

To manage containers, use the <tt>lxc-*</tt> tools, which require root privilege. Some examples (replace <tt>caffeine</tt> with the appropriate container name):

# check if caffeine is running
lxc-info -n caffeine

# start caffeine in the background
lxc-start -d -n caffeine

# stop caffeine gracefully
lxc-halt -n caffeine

# stop caffeine forcefully
lxc-stop -n caffeine

# launch a TTY console for the container
lxc-console -n caffeine

To install Linux container support on a recent Debian (squeeze or newer) system:
* Install the <tt>lxc</tt> and <tt>bridge-utils</tt> packages.
* Create a bridged network interface (this can be configured in <tt>/etc/network/interfaces</tt> as though it were a normal Ethernet device, with the additional <tt>bridge_ports</tt> parameter. This is usually called <tt>br0</tt> (can be created manually with <tt>brctl</tt>). LXC will create a virtual Ethernet device and add it to the bridge when each container starts.

To start caffeine, run the following command as root on glomag:

lxc-start -d -n caffeine

Containers are stored on the host filesystem in /var/lib/lxc (root filesystems are symlinked to the appropriate directory on /vm).

== ehashman's Guide to LXC on Debian ==

=== Configuring the host machine ===

First, install all required packages:

<pre># apt-get install lxc bridge-utils</pre>
==== Setting up ethernet bridging ====

Next, create an ethernet bridge for the container. Edit <code>/etc/network/interfaces</code>:

<pre># The primary network interface
#auto eth0
#iface eth0 inet static
# address 129.97.134.200
# netmask 255.255.255.0
# gateway 129.97.134.1

# Bridge ethernet for containers
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
bridge_ports eth0
address 129.97.134.200
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 129.97.134.1
dns-nameservers 129.97.2.1 129.97.2.2
dns-search wics.uwaterloo.ca uwaterloo.ca</pre>
Cross your fingers and restart networking for your configuration to take effect!

<pre># ifdown br0 && ifup br0
// bash enter to see if you lost connectivity and have to make a machine room trip</pre>

'''Note:''' !!! Do '''not''' use !!! <pre># service networking restart</pre> The init scripts are broken and this likely will result in a machine room trip (or IPMI power cycle).

==== Setting up storage ====

Last, allocate some space in your volume group to put the container root on:

<pre>// Find the correct volume group to put the container on
# vgdisplay

// Create the volume in the appropriate volume group
# lvcreate -L 20G -n container vg0

// Find it in the dev mapper
# ls /dev/mapper/

// Create a filesystem on it
# mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/vg0-container

// Add a mount point
# mkdir /vm/container </pre>
Last, add it to <code>/etc/fstab</code>:

<pre>/dev/mapper/vg0-container /vm/container ext4 defaults 0 2</pre>
Test the entry with <code>mount</code>:

<pre># mount /vm/container</pre>
Now you're done!

=== Creating a new container ===

Create a new container using <code>lxc-create</code>:

<pre>// Create new container "container" with root fs located at /vm/container
# lxc-create --dir=/vm/container -n container --template download</pre>
This will prompt you for distribution, release, and architecture. (Architecture ''must'' match host machine.)

Take this time to review its config in <code>/var/lib/lxc/container/config</code>, and tell it to auto-start if you like:

<pre># Auto-start the container on boot
lxc.start.auto = 1</pre>

You'll also want to set up networking (if applicable):

<pre># Networking
lxc.network.type = veth
lxc.network.flags = up
lxc.network.link = br0
lxc.network.name = eth0
lxc.network.hwaddr = de:ad:be:ef:ba:be # or something sensible</pre>

Now,

<pre>// List containers, -f for fancy
# lxc-ls -f</pre>
to ensure that your container has been successfully created; it should be listed. You can also list its root directory if you like. To start it in the background and obtain a root shell, do

<pre>// Start and attach a root shell
# lxc-start -d -n container
# lxc-attach -n container</pre>

=== Migrating a container between hosts ===

Start by shutting the container down:

<pre>root@container:~# halt</pre>
Then make a tarball of the container's filesystem:

<pre># tar --numeric-owner -czvf container.tar.gz /vm/container</pre>
Copy it to its target destination, along with the configs:

<pre>$ scp container.tar.gz new-host:
$ scp -r /var/lib/lxc/container/ new-host:/var/lib/lxc/</pre>
Now carefully extract it. '''If you haven't already, provision storage and ethernet per the container creation section.'''

Yes, we really do want to stick it directly into <code>/</code>:

<pre># tar --numeric-owner -xzvf container.tar.gz -C /</pre>

If you are migrating from an old version of LXC onto a newer one (e.g. migrating onto xylitol), update the config:

<pre># lxc-update-config -c /vm/container/config</pre>

This will also create a config.backup; you should inspect the new config file to make sure the migration was successful.

Verify the container's existence:

<pre># lxc-ls -f
NAME STATE IPV4 IPV6 AUTOSTART
-----------------------------------------
container STOPPED - - YES </pre>
Now just start it on up:

<pre># lxc-start -d -n container</pre>
And test by trying an ssh in!

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

Syscom Todo

2019-02-15T22:20:57Z

Mtrberzi: remove irrelevant pages, note about psilodump

These are things that syscom should do eventually:

==General==
* Prepare for `sodium-benzoate` upgrades/replacement.
** new-mirror has like 30 disk shelves so we can just do a live sync on the 2TB disks and then insert the 4TB ones
* `/users` backups
* Disaster recovery plan
* Get an IP/KVM for the machine room which doesn't suck?
* Sort through keyboards in the office
* Clean up wiki vandalism
* Fix debian.csclub, aka our personal Debian repo which serves the CEO package
* Fix audio auth: audio is both a system group and an LDAP group and this has bad consequences for audio authorization
* Centralized repo for various configs: NFS, PAM auth with kerb, LDAP and Kerb5, routing/interfaces files
** Private subnet routing is broken on every machine ''except'' corn-syrup, taurine (see 'ethcrazy')

== Wiki Updates ==

* Update the following wiki pages
** [[Backups]]
** [[Ceo]], also related to "debian.csclub is broken"
** somehow merge [[Conserver]]/[[Serial Connections]]/[[Console Configuration]]
** [[Cscbot]]
** [[DNS]]
** [[Hardware]]
** [[Machine List]]
** [[Mirror]] including that rsyncd needs to be re-started after reboot. (systemctl start rsync)
** [[Music]] and possibly link to [[Pulseaudio]]
** [[MySQL]] mentions a-f replica
** [[NFS/Kerberos]] should probably by merged with an existing page
** [[NetApp]]
** [[Netboot]] (might want to merge with [[New CSC Machine]])
** [[OID Assignment]] and [[UID/GID Assignment]] should be merged with LDAP and replaced with a redirect
** Merge [[Point Of Sale]] and [[Point of Sale System]]
** [[Projects]]
** [[Scratch]]
** Add more info to [[Switches]]
** [[Virtualization]]
** [[Wireless]]

==When in the Machine Room==
* Set up binaerpilot.
* Set up rainbowdragoneyes
* Pick up paperclip to install a new OS
* Make sure that the console connections are correct, up-to-date, and working.
* Fix psilodump's and aspartame's IPs and routing
** psilodump should not be routable outside aspartame (but is this still relevant with New NetApp?) This *should* be fixed to use the net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_filter sysctl.

==Science Machine Room==
* Set up remote syslog2

These machines can be used for (nearly) anything you like (though be polite and remember that these are shared machines). Recall that when you signed the Machine Usage Agreement, you promised not to use these machines to generate profit (so no bitcoin mining).

Most people use either taurine and clones or (high-fructose-)corn-syrup. hfcs is probably our beefiest machine at the moment, if you are wanting to do some heavy computation. Again, if you have a long-running computationally intensive job, it's good to
nice[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nice_(Unix)] your process, and possibly let syscom know too.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:

** VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

Mtrberzi: /* Specs */ it's not actually all that fast tbh

= Web Server =
You are highly encouraged to avoid running anything that's not directly related to your CSC webspace on our web server. We have plenty of general-use machines; please use those instead. You can even edit web pages from any other machine--usually the only reason you'd *need* to be on caffeine is for database access.

== ''caffeine'' ==

Caffeine is the Computer Science Club's web server. It serves websites, databases for websites, and a large amount of other services. It is a [[Virtualization#Linux_Containers|Linux container]] at present.

= General-Use Servers =

These machines can be used for (nearly) anything you like (though be polite and remember that these are shared machines). Recall that when you signed the Machine Usage Agreement, you promised not to use these machines to generate profit (so no bitcoin mining).

Most people use either taurine and clones or (high-fructose-)corn-syrup. hfcs is probably our beefiest machine at the moment, if you are wanting to do some heavy computation. Again, if you have a long-running computationally intensive job, it's good to
nice[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nice_(Unix)] your process, and possibly let syscom know too.

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.
== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the [[#auth1|auth1]] container, which has been temporarily moved to [[#dextrose|dextrose]]. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

== ''dextrose'' ==

dextrose is a [[#taurine|taurine]] clone donated by CSCF. It currently hosts [[#mathnews|the mathNEWS server]] and [[#auth1|auth1]].

==== Specs ====

* http://www.dell.com/support/home/ca/en/cabsdt1/product-support/servicetag/51TYRG1/configuration

==== Services ====

* Containers: [[#auth2|auth2]]

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.26/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248
** VLAN ID 505 (csc-data): 129.97.16.96/29; gateway 129.97.16.96; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

Club Hosting

2015-09-10T20:27:11Z

Mtrberzi: we no longer accept new mailing list requests; make it a little more difficult for spam bots to scrape syscom-at

The Computer Science Club provides web hosting to other clubs free of charge. We host many club web sites. If you have a question about our hosting service, contact syscom at csclub dot uwaterloo dot ca or visit our office in MC 3036.

== Hosting Features ==

* 4 GB web space
* Scripting
** PHP (mod_fcgid)
** Perl (mod_fcgid)
** Python (mod_fcgid)
*** Django (mod_wsgi)
** Ruby (mod_fcgid)
* Databases
** [[MySQL]]

This is not an exhaustive list. Contact us if you want something not listed or installed.

== Getting Hosted ==

To get hosted, you need a '''club account''' and one '''user account''' for each person who will be updating the club's web site or other files.

=== Club Account ===

Each club we host has a "club account" that owns and stores club resources. You can request a club account via email or in person. The club account:

* Is named after the club, possibly abbreviated.
* Has a home directory named /users/clubname, where club files are stored.
* Is not permitted to log in. You must use your own user account to login.

The Systems Committee will create club accounts when sent a request from the club's email address to syscom@csclub.uwaterloo.ca. Verification of the club's university affiliation may be required, for instance by contacting the Federation of Students or the club's faculty advisor.

=== User Accounts ===

Each user who needs access to the club account must have his/her own user account on our machines. There are two ways to get an account:

* Become a member of the Computer Science Club. Membership is $2.00 per term.
* Request a free "club representative" account. These accounts are to be used solely for managing the club account, and expire at the end of the term.

In both cases, you must come to MC 3036/3037 in person for initial registration. Club representatives can request renewal of their free accounts if they still need the account in future terms. Renewal can be done in person or via email.

Your user account must also be authorized to change club files. Each club has a "club group" whose members may update the clubs files. We add (and remove) users to the group when we are asked to do so by the club exec. The exec must email the Systems Committee (syscom@csclub.uwaterloo.ca) from a club email address.

Any office staff member may create and renew both member and club representative accounts using [[ceo]]. Only Systems Committee members may modify club access lists.

== Accessing Club Resources ==

At this point, you have a user account and a club account, and need to get started with your web site. Before you can do anything, you need to log into our machines somehow.

=== Shell Access ===

To gain shell access to your site, you can:

* Log in using a terminal in the office
* Log in from anywhere using SSH. Our web server (caffeine) is available at csclub.uwaterloo.ca.

The club's files are stored in /users/clubname.

If you want, you can become the club user by typing "become_club clubname". This is not usually necessary, as the permissions should allow you to make changes as yourself.

=== SFTP File Access ===

You may access files stored on our servers, or upload new ones, via SFTP and SCP. If you are a Windows user you should use [http://winscp.net/ WinSCP] or a similar client with SFTP/SCP abilities. If you are using OS X you can use the sftp or scp Terminal commands, or you can install a graphical client such as [http://cyberduck.ch/ Cyberduck]. Similarly on GNU/Linux you can use the shell commands or a graphical client such as gftp.

Sun 2900

2015-05-26T13:38:06Z

Mtrberzi: s/honey/potassium-nitrate/

This page documents some stuff about the Sun 2900(s) loaned from MFCF.

==RAID setup==
These instructions for the RAID setup for <tt>potassium-nitrate</tt> come from Robyn Landers of MFCF.

To reconfigure, first need to unmap the existing LUNs from the host.
In the telnet session to the management port...

view and edit Host luns

There are two: CHL 1 ID 0 (Primary Controller) and CHL 3 ID 1
(Secondary Ctlr).
* choose CHL 1 ID 0
** this brings up LUN 0 (logical drive 0, 279GB RAID5) and LUN 1 (logical drive 1, same)
* choose LUN 0, and unmap it
* choose LUN 1, and unmap it
* checking CHL 3 ID 1, we find no LUNs there in the first place

Now reassign the drives.

view and edit Logical drives

There are two: LG (logical group?) P0, a RAID5 in "good' status, and LG P1, a RAID5 in "drv failed" status.
* choose P1 and delete logical drive
* go back out to "view and edit Drives" and now we see those drives are in LG_DRV "none", so far so good. Back to view and edit Logical drives.
* choose P0 and delete logical drive P0. All drives are now unassigned.
* choose the now-blank P0 and Create Logical Drive. Yep, it doesn't know RAID6, so choose RAID5. It puts up a list of all available disks. Hit Enter to select the ones we want. Chose 0 1 2 3, then next menu gives choice of Assign spare, so chose 12. Gives summary screen: RAID5, 4 drives, 1 spare, logical drive primary. Confirm. Accept several notifications about building it.
* repeat for new LG P1 using disks 5 8 9 10, with 13 as spare.

Now need to combine these two RAID5 LUNs into single logical volume.

view and edit logical Volumes
* table is empty
* select LV 0, create logical volume
* select both LGs, P0 and P1
* accept default write policy and logical volume assignment, create the LV
* now we have LV P0 consisting of 2 LDs

Next need to map this logical volume to the host.

view and edit Host luns
* select CHL 1 ID 0 (primary controller)
* select logical Volume
* select LUN 0
* only choice available is LV P0 that we just created. Select it.
* leave it as one big partition, not our job to chop it up at this level. Size is 418,506 MB
* only choice is Map Host LUN
* LV 0 partition 0 to channel 1, ID 0, LUN 0 which I assume will end up as c1t0d0 from Solaris p.o.v.

All done. RAIDs are initializing in the background. Next step is at the OS level to label and partition this single logical volume.

=== Services ===

==== Web Hosting ====

The /users/clubname/www directory is accessible via the web at http://csclub.uwaterloo.ca/~clubname. This is set up by default and requires no special configuration.

If you want a domain of the form clubname.uwaterloo.ca, you can request this via email. You can also use your own domain (e.g. club.org), if you purchase it yourself.

We '''strongly discourage''' the use of content management systems such as '''WordPress'''. These packages are notorious for the number of security vulnerabilites they contain and pose a threat if they are not kept up to date. The Systems Committee may, at their discretion, disable any website using a package such as WordPress that is not updated to the latest version or that is found to contain exploitable security flaws. In such a case, the member or club serving that site will be notified of the stoppage; the site will not be re-enabled until the issues are addressed.

==== Databases ====

MySQL databases are available.

You can create a MySQL database yourself through [[ceo]] by following [[MySQL#Using_ceo|these instructions]].

==== Mailing Lists ====

= Syscom Only =

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the [[Systems Committee]] for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host [[Kerberos]] authentication services for the CSC.

== ''artificial-flavours'' ==

Artificial-flavours is our backup server. It used to be an office terminal. It is scheduled to be decommissioned once the backup services are moved to containers on cobalamin,
and it may be transferred to the ownership of Women in Computer Science (WiCS).

A few users were running jobs before we remembered to make a-f actually be syscom-only. They have grandfathered access to the machine, which will be removed at some point.

==== Specs ====

* Intel Celeron 3.2GHz
* 2GB RAM
* [http://csclub.uwaterloo.ca/misc/manuals/Biostar_P4M80-M4.pdf Biostar P4M80-M4] Motherboard
* Western-Digital 80 GB ATA hard drive

==== Services ====

* Backup [[Kerberos|authentication]] and [[OpenLDAP|directory services]]
* [[MySQL]] replica
* Secondary [[Mail]] exchanger

Note: secondary mail exchanger is offline due to improper relay setup.

== ''aspartame'' ==

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also hosts the [[#auth1|auth1]] container.

==== Specs ====

* 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
* 10GB RAM

==== Notes ====

* It currently cannot route the Internet due to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

== ''auth1'' ==

Container on [[#aspartame|aspartame]].

==== Services ====

* [[LDAP]] master
* [[Kerberos]] master

== ''cobalamin'' ==

Dell PowerEdge 2950 donated to us by FEDS. Located in the Science machine room on the first floor of Physics. Will act as a backup server for many things.

* debian.csclub keys not installed
* ssh host keys need to be correctly configured (some removed?)

==== Specs ====

* 1 × Intel Xeon E5420 (2.50 GHz, 4 cores)
* 16GB RAM
* Broadcom NetworkXtreme II
* 2x73GB Hard Drives, hardware RAID1
* http://www.dell.com/support/home/ca/en/cabsdt1/product-support/servicetag/51TYRG1/configuration

==== Services ====

==== Notes ====

* The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.

* We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:
** VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248
** VLAN ID 505 (csc-data): 129.97.16.96/29; gateway 129.97.16.96; mask 255.255.255.248

* For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

== ''glomag'' ==

Glomag is a newish server (as of Fall 2009) which hosts [[#caffeine|caffeine]]. Only syscom are allowed to SSH in here directly, though SSH to caffeine is permitted to all members.

==== Specs ====

* Intel Xeon X3450 @ 2.67 GHz
* 6 GB RAM
* vg0: 465 GB software RAID1 (contains root partition):
** 750 GB Seagate Barracuda SATA hard drive
** 500 GB Western-Digital Caviar Blue SATA hard drive
* vg1: 596 GB software RAID1 (contains caffeine):
** 2 × 640 GB Western-Digital Caviar Blue SATA hard drive

==== Services ====

* [[Virtualization#Linux_Container|Linux containers]]; see [[#caffeine|caffeine]], [[#mail|mail]], [[#munin|munin]]

== ''mail'' ==

mail is the CSC's mail server. It hosts mail delivery, imap(s), smtp(s), and mailman. It is also syscom-only. It is a [[Virtualization#Linux_Containers|Linux container]] at present.

==== Specs ====

* currently hosted on [[#glomag|glomag]]

==== Services ====

* [[Mail]] services
* mailman (web interface at [http://mailman.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/])

== ''psilodump'' ==

psilodump is a NetApp FAS3000 series fileserver donated by CSCF. It, along with its sibling phlogiston, host disk shelves exported as iSCSI block devices.

==== Specs ====

== ''phlogiston'' ==

phlogiston is a NetApp FAS3000 series fileserver donated by CSCF. It, along with its sibling psilodump, host disk shelves exported as iSCSI block devices.

phlogiston is turned off and should remain that way. It is misconfigured to have its drives overlap with those owned by psilodump, and if it is turned on, it will likely cause irreparable data loss.

==== Specs ====

== ''sodium-benzoate'' ==

Sodium-benzoate is our mirror server, funded by MEF.

==== Specs ====

* Intel Xeon Quad Core E5405 @ 2.00 GHz
* 16GB RAM
* vg0: 228 GB block device behind DELL PERC 6/i (contains root partition)
* mirror: ~14 TB block device behind DELL PERC 6/i (contains mirror)
** 8 × 2 TB hard drive (RAID-5)

After several disk failures and RMAs, the mirror array was accidentally rebuilt using some of the 4TB drives purchased for the new mirror. They do not work properly with sodium-benzoate because the RAID controller does not support 4TB drives and only exposes part of the storage. At some point we will need to rebuild the array using the 2TB disks again.

Space disks are currently in the office underneath maltodextrin.

==== Services ====

Kerberos

2015-02-20T19:50:59Z

Mtrberzi: fixed heading level

We use [http://web.mit.edu/Kerberos/ MIT Kerberos 5] for authentication. Our kerberos realm is CSCLUB.UWATERLOO.CA. KDCs run on [[Machine_List#auth1|auth1]] (kdc1) and [[Machine_List#artificial-flavours|artificial-flavours]] (kdc2).

=== Running Kerberos Locally ===

It is possible to run Kerberos on your own personal computer in order to obtain login tickets for CSC machines (i.e. single sign-on over SSH). On Debian/Ubuntu, install the 'krb5-user' package. Then edit /etc/krb5.conf (as root) as follows:
* Under the [libdefaults] header, add these lines:
** default_realm = CSCLUB.UWATERLOO.CA
** forwardable = true
** proxiable = true
* Under the [realms] header, add these lines:
** CSCLUB.UWATERLOO.CA = {
** kdc = kdc1.csclub.uwaterloo.ca
** kdc = kdc2.csclub.uwaterloo.ca
** admin_server = kadmin.csclub.uwaterloo.ca
** }

Then, when you want to SSH into a CSC machine, run "kinit" from the command line. Kerberos will ask you for your CSC password. After that, you should be able to SSH into any CSC machine without typing your password or public key!

Note that this method of access is '''required''' to log in to some of our servers, such as potassium-nitrate.

=== Password Resets ===
To change your own password you can run passwd on any of the club's machines.

Changing other users' passwords
* ssh auth1
* sudo kadmin.local
* cpw username
* Enter new password and confirm

[[Category:Software]]

[http://web.archive.org/web/20120202205851/http://cryptnet.net/mirrors/docs/krb5api.html API Documentation.] While not even close to enough to let you do most things that you'd want to do with Kerberos (and also being somewhat woefully out-of-date, considering it's from 1996), it's at least a start.

=== Expiring Passwords ===

If you are on syscom, you can force a user to change their password by doing this:
* ssh auth1
* sudo kadmin.local
* modify_principal +needchange [username]

=== Suspending an Account ===

If you are on syscom, you can prevent a user from logging with a Kerberos ticket by doing this:
* ssh auth1
* sudo kadmin.local
* modify_principal -allow_tix [username]
If you are seriously locking out an account, you may want to do some other things as well, including but not limited to changing the user's password (prevents password login) and changing the ownership and permissions on .ssh/authorized_keys* (prevents SSH key login). Don't do these things without a strong reason (but know how to do them when the time comes).

=== bofh's Kerberos5 cheat sheet, or "what does *that* error message mean, exactly?" ===

* If GSSAPI complains about "Wrong Principal in Request", make sure there's no clockskew on the machine trying to get the service ticket and the machine running the service that you are trying to get a GSS token to. This will cause this error for some insane reason, despite there being ANOTHER message for clockskew that specifically says "your clocks are off" - it just never seems to be used in the source code anywhere (as of MIT-KRB5 1.9, at least).
* There are some "generic" errors that are hard to debug. A few possible causes: unreadable krb5.keytab, reverse resolution of a host does not match its principal.

Sun 2900 Strategy Guide

2015-02-01T03:31:29Z

Mtrberzi: installing packages

This guide is intended to explain the process of setting up an operating system (OpenBSD 5.6) on a Sun Fire E2900 machine (such as potassium-nitrate).

= Booting an Operating System =

The recommended way to load an operating system onto the E2900 is network boot. From any CSC machine, access the management console (telnet potassium-nitrate-alom and enter password), then hit Enter a few times.

* If you see a login prompt, or nothing, push the two keys "#." consecutively to get to the Lights-Out Management console. Then follow the next step.
* If you see a prompt like "lom>", you are at the Lights-Out Management console. Enter "break", then "yes". This suspends the operating system and enters the debugger.
* If you see a prompt like "ok", you are in the debugger and can control the boot sequence.

From the debugger, typing "boot net" causes the following to take place:

* If there is an operating system running, a system reset will be performed.
* The machine performs a reverse-ARP (RARP) lookup to determine its IP address based on its MAC address. The RARP daemon is running on dextrose, and configuration can be changed in /etc/ethers and /etc/hosts.
* The machine then sends a broadcast TFTP GET request for a file whose name corresponds to its IP address encoded as an eight-character string. For example, potassium-nitrate gets the IP address 129.97.134.45, so it asks for the file "8161862D" over TFTP. (Hint: 'printf "%02X%02X%02X%02X\n" 129 97 134 45')
** atftpd doesn't answer broadcast TFTP requests correctly, so you need to find another way. There is a script in dextrose:/root called tftp.py that acts as a very simple TFTP server, and it handles broadcast requests fine.
* This file is loaded into memory and executed.

For OpenBSD/sparc64, this file is "ofwboot" (but renamed or symlinked so the machine can find it).

* ofwboot sends a broadcast BOOTPARAMS request to find out how to load the next part of the installer. The bootparamd software is running on dextrose, and essentially tells the system to mount a certain directory over NFS and then load from there. The NFS mount in question is exported from dextrose.
* ofwboot then asks for a kernel to run. If you are installing OpenBSD (or upgrading), enter "bsd.rd". This is the OpenBSD RAM-disk kernel and contains a minimal environment that can be loaded into memory without a full root filesystem present. The kernel to be loaded is, as mentioned, exported and loaded over NFS.

Following these steps should give you an OpenBSD installation prompt over the management console. Select 's' for (S)hell.

= Doing the Install =

== Set up software raid ==

We assume here that you would like your root filesystem to be set up on RAID1. Suppose the (OpenBSD) names of your drives are sd0 and sd1.

There are good instructions for this setup that were taken from ([http://brycv.com/blog/2012/openbsd-sparc64-and-root-on-softraid/]).

* Prepare the first disk: 'disklabel -E sd0'
* Show the partition table: 'p'
* Delete each partition: 'd [char]', for each partition listed
* Create a boot partition: 'a a', offset (hit enter), size (100M), FS type (4.2BSD)
* Create a swap partition: 'a b', offset (hit enter), size (pick a number), FS type (swap)
* Create a root RAID partition: 'a d', offset (hit enter), size (hit enter), FS type (raid)
* Save and quit: 'q', 'y'
* Save the disklabel: 'disklabel sd0 > protofile'
* Load the disklabel onto the second disk: 'disklabel -R sd1 protofile'
* Create a software RAID device: 'bioctl -c 1 -l sd0d,sd1d softraid0'
* This command will print out something like "sd2 at scsibus2" -- remember the "sd2" part, this is the device name you will be using later in the install.

Hit Control-D to return to the installation menu, then choose 'i' for (I)nstall.

== Install OpenBSD ==

Choose sensible values for all the settings in the installer. When it comes time to install things to disk, select 'sd2' (or whatever you had from before) and leave the other disks alone. Set up the disk, making sure to leave lots of room in /usr.

When the install finishes, you will be returned to a shell. Do not reboot.

* Create new filesystems on the boot partitions: "newfs /dev/rsd0a", "newfs /dev/rsd1a"
* "mount /dev/sd0a /mnt2"
* "mkdir /mnt3"
* "mount /dev/sd1a /mnt3"
* "cd /mnt ; cp bsd* ofwboot /mnt2 ; cp bsd* ofwboot /mnt3"
* Install the bootloader: "installboot -v /mnt/user/mdec/bootblk sd2"

Now reboot.

= So You've Installed OpenBSD, And Are Hoping This Will Help =

== How to Install Software ==

OpenBSD recommends installing most packages from the binary package system, and fortunately, there are lots of binaries available for SPARC64! (But see below.) You will want to edit /root/.profile and add the line "export PKG_PATH=ftp://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/OpenBSD/5.6/packages/sparc64" in order to fetch the packages from the local mirror.

* To install a package, "pkg_add -iv [package name]". -i is for interactive mode (asks you what flavour of a package you want, if multiple are available, e.g. "emacs no_x11" vs "emacs"), -v is for verbose mode.
* To search for a package, "pkg_info -Q [search name]". This only searches for the name of a package.

== Get Kerberos Working ==

You probably want to allow other members of the CSC to log in to the machine. It turns out that setting this up is extremely difficult, because the stock OpenSSH binaries do not include support for Kerberos. The following is probably the one place on the Internet that actually explains how to do this for OpenBSD 5.6. If you figure out a better way, please test it and then contact the Systems Committee. We would appreciate never having to do this again.

* You need access to the OpenBSD ports tree, which allows packages to be built from source.
* "cd /tmp; ftp mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca". Access "OpenBSD/5.6/". Get "ports.tar.gz", then logout.
* "cd /usr" then "tar xzf /tmp/ports.tar.gz". After that, "rm /tmp/ports.tar.gz".
* Heimdal is OpenBSD's fork of MIT-Kerberos. To build it, "cd /usr/ports/security/heimdal ; make install". Wait a while for this to finish.
* Now you will recompile OpenSSH from source to include support for Heimdal/KRB5. To begin, download the latest version of the OpenSSH source tarball from your local mirror (e.g. mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/OpenBSD/OpenSSH/openssh-X.Y.tar.gz) and extract it somewhere.
* The following instructions are correct for OpenSSH 6.7; if a new version has come out, these aren't guaranteed to work but will probably help a lot. All paths are relative to the base of the extracted source directory.
** In gss-serv.c: add the line "#include <netdb.h>" somewhere near the top of the file.
** In lib/Makefile: remove the '#' signs from every line between, but not including, "#.if (${KERBEROS5:L} == 'yes')" and "# .endif # KERBEROS5"; then change the line you just uncommented that begins "CFLAGS" to look like "CFLAGS+= -DKRB5 -I/usr/local/heimdal/include -I/usr/local/include".
** In servconf.h: add the line '#include "misc.h"' somewhere near the top of the file.
** In sshd/Makefile: change the line "KERBEROS=no" to "KERBEROS=yes", then change the nearby line that begins "CFLAGS" to look like "CFLAGS+= -DKRB5 -I/usr/local/heimdal/include -I/usr/local/include -DGSSAPI"; then change the nearby line that begins "LDADD" to look like "LDADD+= -lgssapi -lkrb5 -lasn1 -L/usr/local/heimdal/lib -L/usr/local/lib".
* Run the command "ldconfig -m /usr/local/heimdal/lib /usr/local/lib" to add these directories to the library search path.
* Build OpenSSH: "make obj ; make cleandir ; make depend ; make ; make install"
* Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and add the line "GSSAPIAuthentication yes" at the bottom.
* Restart sshd: "/etc/rc.d/sshd restart". If this fails for any reason, re-run with "/etc/rc.d/sshd -d restart" and fix errors manually.

This guide is intended to explain the process of setting up an operating system (OpenBSD 5.6) on a Sun Fire E2900 machine (such as potassium-nitrate).

= Booting an Operating System =

The recommended way to load an operating system onto the E2900 is network boot. From any CSC machine, access the management console (telnet potassium-nitrate-alom and enter password), then hit Enter a few times.

* If you see a login prompt, or nothing, push the two keys "#." consecutively to get to the Lights-Out Management console. Then follow the next step.
* If you see a prompt like "lom>", you are at the Lights-Out Management console. Enter "break", then "yes". This suspends the operating system and enters the debugger.
* If you see a prompt like "ok", you are in the debugger and can control the boot sequence.

From the debugger, typing "boot net" causes the following to take place:

* If there is an operating system running, a system reset will be performed.
* The machine performs a reverse-ARP (RARP) lookup to determine its IP address based on its MAC address. The RARP daemon is running on dextrose, and configuration can be changed in /etc/ethers and /etc/hosts.
* The machine then sends a broadcast TFTP GET request for a file whose name corresponds to its IP address encoded as an eight-character string. For example, potassium-nitrate gets the IP address 129.97.134.45, so it asks for the file "8161862D" over TFTP. (Hint: 'printf "%02X%02X%02X%02X\n" 129 97 134 45')
** atftpd doesn't answer broadcast TFTP requests correctly, so you need to find another way. There is a script in dextrose:/root called tftp.py that acts as a very simple TFTP server, and it handles broadcast requests fine.
* This file is loaded into memory and executed.

For OpenBSD/sparc64, this file is "ofwboot" (but renamed or symlinked so the machine can find it).

* ofwboot sends a broadcast BOOTPARAMS request to find out how to load the next part of the installer. The bootparamd software is running on dextrose, and essentially tells the system to mount a certain directory over NFS and then load from there. The NFS mount in question is exported from dextrose.
* ofwboot then asks for a kernel to run. If you are installing OpenBSD (or upgrading), enter "bsd.rd". This is the OpenBSD RAM-disk kernel and contains a minimal environment that can be loaded into memory without a full root filesystem present. The kernel to be loaded is, as mentioned, exported and loaded over NFS.

Following these steps should give you an OpenBSD installation prompt over the management console. Select 's' for (S)hell.

= Doing the Install =

== Set up software raid ==

We assume here that you would like your root filesystem to be set up on RAID1. Suppose the (OpenBSD) names of your drives are sd0 and sd1.

There are good instructions for this setup that were taken from ([http://brycv.com/blog/2012/openbsd-sparc64-and-root-on-softraid/]).

* Prepare the first disk: 'disklabel -E sd0'
* Show the partition table: 'p'
* Delete each partition: 'd [char]', for each partition listed
* Create a boot partition: 'a a', offset (hit enter), size (100M), FS type (4.2BSD)
* Create a swap partition: 'a b', offset (hit enter), size (pick a number), FS type (swap)
* Create a root RAID partition: 'a d', offset (hit enter), size (hit enter), FS type (raid)
* Save and quit: 'q', 'y'
* Save the disklabel: 'disklabel sd0 > protofile'
* Load the disklabel onto the second disk: 'disklabel -R sd1 protofile'
* Create a software RAID device: 'bioctl -c 1 -l sd0d,sd1d softraid0'
* This command will print out something like "sd2 at scsibus2" -- remember the "sd2" part, this is the device name you will be using later in the install.

Hit Control-D to return to the installation menu, then choose 'i' for (I)nstall.

== Install OpenBSD ==

Choose sensible values for all the settings in the installer. When it comes time to install things to disk, select 'sd2' (or whatever you had from before) and leave the other disks alone. Set up the disk, making sure to leave lots of room in /usr.

When the install finishes, you will be returned to a shell. Do not reboot.

* Create new filesystems on the boot partitions: "newfs /dev/rsd0a", "newfs /dev/rsd1a"
* "mount /dev/sd0a /mnt2"
* "mkdir /mnt3"
* "mount /dev/sd1a /mnt3"
* "cd /mnt ; cp bsd* ofwboot /mnt2 ; cp bsd* ofwboot /mnt3"
* Install the bootloader: "installboot -v /mnt/user/mdec/bootblk sd2"

Now reboot.

= So You've Installed OpenBSD, And Are Hoping This Will Help =

== Get Kerberos Working ==

You probably want to allow other members of the CSC to log in to the machine. It turns out that setting this up is extremely difficult, because the stock OpenSSH binaries do not include support for Kerberos. The following is probably the one place on the Internet that actually explains how to do this for OpenBSD 5.6. If you figure out a better way, please test it and then contact the Systems Committee. We would appreciate never having to do this again.

* You need access to the OpenBSD ports tree, which allows packages to be built from source.
* "cd /tmp; ftp mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca". Access "OpenBSD/5.6/". Get "ports.tar.gz", then logout.
* "cd /usr" then "tar xzf /tmp/ports.tar.gz". After that, "rm /tmp/ports.tar.gz".
* Heimdal is OpenBSD's fork of MIT-Kerberos. To build it, "cd /usr/ports/security/heimdal ; make install". Wait a while for this to finish.
* Now you will recompile OpenSSH from source to include support for Heimdal/KRB5. To begin, download the latest version of the OpenSSH source tarball from your local mirror (e.g. mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/OpenBSD/OpenSSH/openssh-X.Y.tar.gz) and extract it somewhere.
* The following instructions are correct for OpenSSH 6.7; if a new version has come out, these aren't guaranteed to work but will probably help a lot. All paths are relative to the base of the extracted source directory.
** In gss-serv.c: add the line "#include <netdb.h>" somewhere near the top of the file.
** In lib/Makefile: remove the '#' signs from every line between, but not including, "#.if (${KERBEROS5:L} == 'yes')" and "# .endif # KERBEROS5"; then change the line you just uncommented that begins "CFLAGS" to look like "CFLAGS+= -DKRB5 -I/usr/local/heimdal/include -I/usr/local/include".
** In servconf.h: add the line '#include "misc.h"' somewhere near the top of the file.
** In sshd/Makefile: change the line "KERBEROS=no" to "KERBEROS=yes", then change the nearby line that begins "CFLAGS" to look like "CFLAGS+= -DKRB5 -I/usr/local/heimdal/include -I/usr/local/include -DGSSAPI"; then change the nearby line that begins "LDADD" to look like "LDADD+= -lgssapi -lkrb5 -lasn1 -L/usr/local/heimdal/lib -L/usr/local/lib".
* Run the command "ldconfig -m /usr/local/heimdal/lib /usr/local/lib" to add these directories to the library search path.
* Build OpenSSH: "make obj ; make cleandir ; make depend ; make ; make install"
* Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and add the line "GSSAPIAuthentication yes" at the bottom.
* Restart sshd: "/etc/rc.d/sshd restart". If this fails for any reason, re-run with "/etc/rc.d/sshd -d restart" and fix errors manually.

psilodump is a NetApp FAS3000 series fileserver donated by CSCF. It, along with its sibling phlogiston, host disk shelves exported as iSCSI block devices.

==== Specs ====

== ''phlogiston'' ==

phlogiston is a NetApp FAS3000 series fileserver donated by CSCF. It, along with its sibling psilodump, host disk shelves exported as iSCSI block devices.

phlogiston is turned off and should remain that way. It is misconfigured to have its drives overlap with those owned by psilodump, and if it is turned on, it will likely cause irreparable data loss.

==== Specs ====

== ''sodium-benzoate'' ==

Sodium-benzoate is our mirror server, funded by MEF.

==== Specs ====

* Intel Xeon Quad Core E5405 @ 2.00 GHz
* 16GB RAM
* vg0: 228 GB block device behind DELL PERC 6/i (contains root partition)
* mirror: ~14 TB block device behind DELL PERC 6/i (contains mirror)
** 8 × 2 TB hard drive (RAID-5)

After several disk failures and RMAs, the mirror array was accidentally rebuilt using some of the 4TB drives purchased for the new mirror. They do not work properly with sodium-benzoate because the RAID controller does not support 4TB drives and only exposes part of the storage. At some point we will need to rebuild the array using the 2TB disks again.

Space disks are currently in the office underneath maltodextrin.

New CSC Machine

Mtrberzi: rewording in re. complaint

= Booting =

* Put the TFTP image in place (if dist-arch pair installed before, you may skip this).
e.g. extract http://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ubuntu/dists/oneiric/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz to caffeine:/srv/tftp/oneiric-amd64

* Configure DHCP server; see caffeine:/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf. This allow caffeine to identify the host by its MAC address and give it the correct IP and boot image. e.g.
host bit-shifter {
hardware ethernet 6C:F0:49:08:49:48;
fixed-address 129.97.134.111;
next-server 129.97.134.17;
filename "raring-amd64/pxelinux.0";
}

* Force network boot in the BIOS. This may be called "Legacy LAN" or other such cryptic things. If this doesn't work, boot from CD or USB instead.

It is preferred to use the "alternate" Ubuntu installer image, based on debian-installer, instead of the Ubiquity installer. This installer supports software RAID and LVM out of the box, and will generally make your life easier. If installing Debian, this is the usual installer, so don't sweat it.

= Installing =

== debian-installer ==

At least in expert mode, you can choose a custom mirror (top of the countries list) and give the path for mirror directly. This will make installation super-fast compared to installing from anywhere else.

Please install to LVM volumes, as this is our standard configuration on all machines where possible. It allows more flexible partitioning across available volumes. Since GRUB 2, even /boot may be on LVM; this is the preferred configuration for simplicity, except when legacy partitioning setups make this inconvenient.

You may enable unattended upgrades, but do not enable Canonical's remote management service or any such nonsense. This is mostly a straightforward Debian/Ubuntu install.

== Ubiquity ==

Ubiquity is the Ubuntu GUI installer. For it to have lvm support, run:
apt-get install lvm2

If you still can't see the partitions (even if lvscan sees them, but no devices exist), run <tt>vgscan</tt> and <tt>vgchange -ay</tt> as root. Now the partitioner should be able to see them. We prefer to use LVM for partitions. Since GRUB 2, even /boot may be on LVM; this is the preferred configuration for simplicity, except when legacy partitioning setups make this inconvenient.

After installing with Ubiquity, you must also add LVM support to the newly installed system, and in particular its initramfs.

mount /dev/vg0/root /mnt
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot
chroot /mnt
apt-get install lvm2

You should see an update-initramfs update. Reboot.

= After Installing =

Add the new machine's ip to /etc/hosts and propagate to all other machines (~syscom/bin/alldist).

== apt ==

If you did not during installation, change all references in <tt>/etc/apt/sources.list</tt> to use <tt>mirror</tt> instead of the usual mirrors.

Also add support for the CSC packages. Add the following to <tt>/etc/apt/sources.list.d/csclub.list</tt> (or copy from another host):

deb http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ <distribution> main contrib non-free
deb-src http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/ <distribution> main contrib non-free

You'll also need the CSC archive signing key (if <tt>curl</tt> is not installed, install it).
curl -s http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/csclub.asc | apt-key add -

If you are running Debian, our package list installs some cross-compilers that are in the Emdebian repository. Install the package <tt>emdebian-archive-keyring</tt> and then add the following entry to <tt>/etc/apt/sources.list.d/emdebian.list</tt>:
deb http://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/emdebian/ squeeze main
deb-src http://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/emdebian/ squeeze main

You should now run <tt>apt-get update</tt> to reflect these changes.

Next, install <tt>inapt</tt> (it is in the CSC Debian archive). If it hasn't previously been built for the current platform, clone and build it (TODO: describe how to do this).

Clone <tt>~git/public/packages.git</tt>, update it if necessary (notably updating <tt>nodes.ia</tt> to reflect the distribution and role of the machine), then run:
inapt *.ia

(Due to a bug, if a warning is thrown, this will segfault. Until fixed, just temporarily remove whatever packages it complains about from the list.)

Warning: this will take a long time due to the large number of packages being installed. Some of the below can be done once the relevant packages are installed, but while other packages are still being installed.

Note that inapt current uninstalls NetworkManager, which is what Ubuntu uses by default to configure the network. Once this completes, open <tt>/etc/network/interfaces</tt> and set up a static networking configuration (otherwise, networking will not come back up on reboot). It should look something like this:

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 129.97.134.xxx
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 129.97.134.1
network 129.97.134.0
broadcast 129.97.134.255
dns-nameservers 129.97.2.1 129.97.47.5 129.97.47.6
dns-search csclub.uwaterloo.ca uwaterloo.ca

For unattended upgrades in the future, install the <tt>unattended-upgrades</tt> package and copy <tt>/etc/apt/apt.conf</tt> from another host.

== Keys ==

If this is a reinstall of an existing host, copy back the SSH host keys and <tt>/etc/krb5.keytab</tt> from its former incarnation. Otherwise, create a new Kerberos principal and copy the keytab over, as follows (run from the host in question):
kadmin -p sysadmin/admin # or any other admin principal; the password for this one is the usual root password
addprinc -randkey host/[hostname].csclub.uwaterloo.ca
ktadd host/[hostname].csclub.uwaterloo.ca

This will generate a new principal (you can skip this step if one already exists) and add it to the local Kerberos keytab.

Also copy <tt>/etc/ssl/certs/GlobalSign_Intermediate_Root_SHA256_G2.pem</tt> from another host, as many of our services use a certificate issued by this CA.

== Configuration ==

=== General ===

The following config files are needed to work in the CSC environment (examples given below for an office terminal; perhaps refer to another host if preferred).

<tt>/etc/nsswitch.conf</tt>
# /etc/nsswitch.conf

Update: <tt>allow_weak_crypto</tt> is basically a no-op in recent Kerberos versions - but this is not a problem as any linux kernel with version >= 2.6.38.2 can use any cipher available to the kernel to grab tickets from the KDC for the purpose of NFS sec=krb5. Notably, this means you can use ciphersuites less craptastic than des-cbc-crc (the only one that used to work prior to this kernel revision) for NFS sec=krb5 mounts. Therefore, <tt>allow_weak_crypto</tt> has been removed from /etc/krb5.conf on all our machines.

Furthermore, the lines <tt>dns_lookup_kdc</tt> and <tt>dns_lookup_realm</tt> have been added - they are needed to stop the KDC from throwing its arms in the air and giving up if IST's DNS servers ever explode - an event that has happened in the recent past far more often than I'd like it to.

Notably, <tt>allow_weak_crypto</tt> is currently needed to mount <tt>/users</tt> (/music and <tt>/scratch</tt> is sec=sys and thus will always mount, even when krb5 is down and/or broken). Otherwise, you will get a mysterious "permission denied" error (even though the server claims to have authenticated the mount successfully).

This file is notably different on syscom-only hosts. Look at an existing syscom-only host to see the difference.

Alter <tt>/etc/default/nfs-common</tt> to enable <tt>statd</tt>, and more importantly <tt>gssd</tt> (needed for Kerberos NFS mounts). Start both daemons manually for now.

Add <tt>/users</tt>, <tt>/music</tt> and <tt>/scratch</tt> to <tt>/etc/fstab</tt> (as appropriate for the machine's role), make their mount points and mount them. Note that <tt>/music</tt> and <tt>/scratch</tt> are sec=sys whereas /users is sec=krb5 (with exceptions granted on a case-by-case basis for servers only, office terminals are always sec=krb5 for security reasons).

To allow single sign-on as <tt>root</tt> (primarily useful for pushing files to all machines simultaneously), put the following in <tt>/root/.k5login</tt>:
sysadmin/admin@CSCLUB.UWATERLOO.CA

Also copy the following files from another CSC host:
* <tt>/etc/ssh/ssh_config</tt> and <tt>/etc/ssh/sshd_config</tt> (for single sign-on)
* <tt>/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts</tt> (to remove hostkey warnings within our network)
* <tt>/etc/hosts</tt> (for host tab completion and emergency name resolution)

=== Display Manager ===

LightDM (with unity-greeter) is the current display manager of choice for CSC office terminals. Copy <tt>/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf</tt> and <tt>/etc/lightdm/users.conf</tt> from another CSC machine to configure it properly. If kdm or another display manager gets installed, please ensure that you continue to choose LightDM as the default display manager.

Please leave AccountsService enabled, as LightDM and certain parts of the GNOME packages work better when it is available.

The Unity greeter configuration is now in gsettings. We currently have a novelty wallpaper configured. To configure this, copy <tt>/usr/local/share/backgrounds/tarkin.png</tt> from another machine and run:

sudo -u lightdm dbus-launch gsettings set com.canonical.unity-greeter background /usr/local/share/backgrounds/tarkin.png

=== Tweaks ===

On Ubuntu precise, even when <tt>gnome-keyring</tt> is uninstalled, it leaves a config file behind that causes error messages. Remove <tt>/etc/pkcs11/modules/gnome-keyring-module</tt> to fix this.

On Ubuntu saucy or newer, edit <tt>/etc/sysctl.d/10-magic-sysrq</tt> at change the value 244.

== Records ==

You probably already created the host in the University IPAM system beforehand. If not, please do so.

Please also add the host to the [[Machine List]] here on the Wiki, and to <tt>/users/syscom/csc-machines</tt> (and <tt>csc-office-machines</tt>, if applicable).

== Munin (System Monitoring) ==

If the new machine is not a container, you probably want to have it participate in the Munin cluster. Run <tt>apt-get install munin-node</tt> to install the monitoring client, then
edit the file /etc/munin/munin-node.conf. Look for a line that says <tt>allow ^127\.0\.0\.1$</tt> and add the following on a new line immediately below it:
<tt>allow ^129\.97\.134\.51$</tt> (this is the IP address for munin.csclub). Save the file, then <tt>/etc/init.d/munin-node restart</tt> and <tt>update-rc.d munin-node defaults</tt>.

Then, ssh into munin.csclub and edit the file /etc/munin/munin.conf and add the following lines to the end:
<tt>

[NEW-MACHINE-NAME.csclub] 
addr 129.97.134.### 
use_node_name yes

</tt>

= New Distribution =

If you're adding a new distribution, there a couple of steps you'll need to take in updating the CSClub Debian repository on [[Machine_List#sodium_benzoate|sodium-benzoate/mirror]].

The steps to add a new Debian release (in the examples, jessie) is as follows, modify as necessary:

=== Step 0: Create a GPG key ===

Use "gpg --gen-key" or something like that. Skip this if you already have one.

=== Step 1: Add to Uploaders ===

The /srv/debian/conf/uploaders file on mirror contains the list of people who can upload. Add your GPG key id to this file. Use "gpg --list-secret-keys" to find out the key ID. You also need to import your key into the mirror's gpg homedir as follows:

gpg --export $KEYID | sudo env GNUPGHOME=/srv/debian/gpg gpg --import

You only need to do this step once.

=== Step 2: Add Distro ===

Add a new section to /srv/debian/conf/distributions:

Origin: CSC
Label: Debian
Codename: '''jessie'''
Architectures: alpha amd64 i386 mips mipsel sparc powerpc armel source
Components: main contrib non-free
Uploaders: uploaders
Update: dell chrome
SignWith: yes
Log: jessie.log
--changes notifier

And update the '''Allow''' line in /srv/debian/conf/incoming:

Allow: '''jessie>jessie''' oldstable>squeeze stable>wheezy lucid>lucid maverick>maverick oneiric>oneiric precise>precise quantal>quantal

=== Step 3: Update from Sources ===

Run:

sudo env GNUPGHOME=/srv/debian/gpg rrr-update

If all went well you should see the new distribution listed at http://debian.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/dists/

=== Step 4: CSC Packages ===

Now that we've got our new distribution set up we need to generate our packages and have them uploaded. Namely, ceo, libpam-csc & inapt. Using libpam-csc as an example:

Get the package:

git clone ~git/public/libpam-csc.git
cd libpam-csc

Update change log:

EMAIL=[you]@csclub.uwaterloo.ca NAME="Your Name" dch -i

Update as necessary, i.e:

libpam-csc (1.10'''jessie0''') '''jessie'''; urgency=low

* Packaging for jessie.

-- Your Name <[you]@csclub.uwaterloo.ca> Thu, 10 Oct 2013 22:08:48 -0400

Build! (You may need to install various dependencies, which it will yell at you if you don't have.)

debuild -k'''YOURKEYID'''

Yay, it built now let's upload it to the repo. The build process which create a PACKAGE.changes file in the parent directory (replace PACKAGE with the actual package name).

dupload libpam-csc_1.10jessie0_amd64.changes

Finally, log into mirror and type "sudo rrr-incoming". This is supposed to happen once every few minutes however it is always faster to run it manually.

And you're done. Just repeat the previous bit for other csc packages.
