Since users is the file server, it is important that we install and reboot it first. We can then proceed with the boss installation, since part of the boss installation involved mounting directories exported during users setup.
All network traffic between boss and users goes by default over their private networks. It is important that your boss and users images are able to ping each other through router.
The original installation documentation is here. I strongly recommend reading through it in order to understand where the DETER install process is evolving from:
We currently use a private github repository for the testbed codebase. Please contact us for access.
Create a build user of your choice on boss and users. If you are unfamiliar with FreeBSD, the process for creating users is laid out in the FreeBSD handbook. Make sure the user is in the group 'wheel' so sudo can be used.
Login as this user and clone the testbed repository:
su -l <builduser> git clone https://github.com/deter-project/testbed.git
Create the object tree directory.
mkdir ~<builduser>/obj
Now go into the ~<builduser>/obj directory.
cd ~<builduser>/obj ../testbed/configure --with-TBDEFS=/home/<builduser>/testbed/defs-<your defs>
This will create the object tree for the testbed.
The install process is handled by two scripts. One is boss-install and the other is users-install, for boss and users.
You must install and reboot the users node first.
cd ~<builduser>/obj/install sudo perl ./[boss|users]-install
If the install process complains about an outdated metapackage, please refer to the next section.
The output of the build script will look like this:
[jjh@users ~/obj/install]$ sudo perl users-install WARNING: This script is ONLY intended to be run on a machine that is being set up as a dedicated users node. Continue?

Please reboot this machine before proceeding with boss setup Local mailing lists have been created, with no members, in /etc/mail/lists . Please add members to the following lists: testbed-ops@mini-isi.deterlab.net testbed-logs@mini-isi.deterlab.net testbed-www@mini-isi.deterlab.net testbed-approval@mini-isi.deterlab.net testbed-audit@mini-isi.deterlab.net testbed-stated@mini-isi.deterlab.net testbed-testsuite@mini-isi.deterlab.net testbed-ops@mini-isi.deterlab.net testbed-logs@mini-isi.deterlab.net [jjh@users ~/obj/install]$
You will have to add someone to the mailing lists in /etc/mail/lists on users after the install:
users# cd /etc/mail/lists users# foreach i ( `ls testbed-*` ) foreach? echo "admin@yoursite.net" >> $i foreach? end
The dependencies are installed via a special meta package. This is already installed on the stock images, but if you ever need to update:
cd testbed/install/ports sudo make install cd /usr/ports/misc/instant-deter sudo make deinstall sudo make reinstall
In order to update the codebase, running the install script is not necessary.
cd ~<builduser>/testbed git pull cd ~<builduser>/obj ../testbed/configure --with-TBDEFS=/home/jjh/testbed/defs-<your defs> gmake gmake [boss|users]-install
