Capítulo 2. Installing Image Builder

Procedure

1. Install the Image Builder and other necessary packages on the virtual machine:

   • osbuild-composer
   • composer-cli
   • cockpit-composer
   • bash-completion

   # yum install osbuild-composer composer-cli cockpit-composer bash-completion

   The web console is installed as a dependency of the cockpit-composer package.

2. Enable Image Builder to start after each reboot:

   # systemctl enable --now osbuild-composer.socket
   # systemctl enable cockpit.socket

   The osbuild-composer and cockpit services start automatically on first access.

3. Configure the system firewall to allow access to the web console:

   # firewall-cmd --add-service=cockpit && firewall-cmd --add-service=cockpit --permanent
