Summary

Cobbler is a network install server. Cobbler supports PXE, ISO

virtualized installs, and re-installing existing Linux machines.

The last two modes use a helper tool, 'koan', that integrates with

cobbler. There is also a web interface 'cobbler-web'. Cobbler's

advanced features include importing distributions from DVDs and rsync

mirrors, kickstart templating, integrated yum mirroring, and built-in

DHCP/DNS Management. Cobbler has a XMLRPC API for integration with

other applications.
