一、前言
在上一篇博客中（ http://www.linuxidc.com/Linux/2013-11/92319.htm ）我們詳細的講解了Cobbler安裝與基本配置，在最後的實驗中我們已經安裝好了Cobbler。在這一篇博客中我們來主要講解一下Cobbler命令的使用與相關配置目錄的說明。好了，下面廢話不多說直接上干貨。（注，這一篇博客的內容是跟著上一篇博客的內容寫的，對安裝不了解的博友可以先參考上一篇博客。）
二、Cobbler 命令詳解

2.Cobbler 常用命令詳解
cobbler check #檢查cobbler配置
cobbler sync #同步配置到dhcp/pxe和數據目錄
cobbler list #列出所有的cobbler元素
cobbler import #導入安裝的系統鏡像
cobbler report #列出各元素的詳細信息
cobbler distro #查看導入的發行版系統信息
cobbler profile #查看配置信息
cobbler system #查看添加的系統信息
cobbler reposync #同步yum倉庫到本地
(1).cobbler check
12 [root@node2 ~]# cobbler check
No configuration problems found. All systems go.
注，主要用於檢查cobbler配置是否有錯。
(2).cobbler sync
[root@node2 ~]# cobbler sync

*** TASK COMPLETE ***
注，同步cobbler配置到數據目錄中，更改某些配置後得執行一下，同步一下配置。
(3).cobbler list
[root@node2 ~]# cobbler list
distros: #導入的發行版本
profiles: #安裝的配置信息
systems: #增加的系統信息
repos: #yum倉庫
images: #存儲所有導入發行版的Kernel和initrd鏡像用於遠程網絡啟動
mgmtclasses:
packages:
files:
注，用cobbler list 命令可以列出cobbler所有元素。
(4).cobbler import
[root@node2 ~]# cobbler import --help
Usage: cobbler [options]
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--arch=ARCH OS architecture being imported
--breed=BREED the breed being imported

==========
repos:
==========
