network configuration - Cobbler add versus ksmeta

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




Hi - i am experimenting on how to pass network configuration to cobbler - i do it either by adding most information directly to the cobbler add command or passing it within the --ksmeta. Below are 2 examples, the first is populated with information mainly from within ksmeta, only the name, mac and profile to use is passed to cobbler add the rest is within ksmeta. This installs fine. The second example is where only the nameserver info is passed using ksmeta everything else comes from the cobbler add directly. The issue is the second example boots, gets an IP but then fails trying to retrieve the netstg2.img.

Anyone got any thoughts as to why this may be ? thanks

this works
