HowTo install Debian on the Storage Node¶

Post-Install¶

Configure Network¶

If you have selected "automated network configuration" during installation process, you will need to update the network interface(s) to your desired settings to configure static IPs. To do so, modify the file located at /etc/network/interfaces with the following changes:

-allow-hotplug enp2s0
-iface enp2s0 inet dhcp
+auto enp2s0
+iface enp2s0 inet static
+  address 10.10.10.30/24
+  gateway 10.10.10.1

Repeat the same for all interfaces you want to use.

After that, restart the network interface(s) with ifdown enp2s0 followed by ifup enp2s0.

APT Sources¶

If you didn't configure additional apt sources during installation, you may want to configure those now.

Add debian.sources file under /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory with the following contents:

Types: deb
URIs: http://deb.debian.org/debian
Suites: trixie trixie-updates
Components: main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg

Types: deb
URIs: http://deb.debian.org/debian-security
Suites: trixie-security
Components: main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg

SSH Access¶

• Add your ssh public key to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
• Make sure you have the following line AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys in /etc/ssh/ssh_config file
• Then restart ssh service with systemctl restart ssh and check that it has "active (running)" status with systemctl status ssh
