I am interested in what exactly doing a full burn in entails. Which programs, checklists etc.
Hello. It’s been a while. I was wondering if anyone has the answers I am looking for?
Maybe @Braeden-45Drives would be able/willing to answer this. If not, you could send a note to info@45homelab.com. I wouldn’t want to mis-speak, and I haven’t seen them actually post a description of this elsewhere.
Hey @urbanracer34
Sorry for the late response!
I do not have a specific cut sheet of what fully burnt in entails software wise but I can certainly give you what I know, it should be everything!
The fully burnt in model will come with all the hardware specified from the website, it will also be tested during assembly. This includes load tests and networking tests to make sure all of the components are acting as they should at the time of assembly.
Software wise, we install Rocky 9 and Houston UI. Houston is an open source project built on top of the already existing cockpit project. You can check out our specific modules at our github 45Drives · GitHub
We will then run our setup script to get the server to a state where we can plug and go!
I will give a list of the software we download before shipping:
- 45Drive Repository
- epel-release
- Sets SELinux to Permissive
- Installs ZFS version 2.2.7 (Rocky9)
- Installs dkms, gcc, make, perl, kernel-devel, kernel-headers
- Install cockpit and cockpit modules
- cockpit (Cockpit Module)
- cockpit-benchmark (45Drives Module)
- cockpit-navigator (45Drives Module)
- cockpit-file-sharing (45Drives Module)
- cockpit-45drives-hardware (45Drives Module)
- cockpit-identities (45Drives Module)
- cockpit-bridge (Cockpit Module)
- cockpit-storaged (Cockpit Module)
- cockpit-scheduler (45Drives Module)
- cockpit-zfs (45Drives Module)
This should be most of what is downloaded extra as well and any dependencies for these packages. The full set up script can be viewed here!
https://scripts.45drives.com/rocky9-preconfig.sh
This is the default of what we install, this is an open source project and we take pride in that! If you ever wanted to, you could spin up a VM and download all of these if using either Rocky 8/9 or Ubuntu 20/22.
You are also more than welcome to install whatever type of OS you would like, the only drawbacks would be support from our modules and support from our forums!
If you had any extra questions please let me know!
@Braeden-45Drives Hello!
