this would be very helpful indeed.
although i suspect having to manually select your install via a menu
can get painful when lighting up a bunch of blade systems - if i read
this correctly.
we've been kicking around the idea of polling MAC addresses from our
edge switches then having some glue code enter those addy's into
cobbler and assign them a specific profile (we usually find ourselves
putting all of our render nodes for example on their own edge switch
so we don't have to worry about mixed use profiles in the use case).
don't get me wrong though - auto-reg would be huge :)
Good deal!
I think you might know about this, but you can also do the following
trick today that makes life a lot easier than using menus:
cobbler system add --name=default --profile=foo
# power up 500 systems
cobbler system add --name=default --profile=bar
# power up another 500
Coupled with auto-registration that could be pretty slick :)
-p
That of course should end with:
cobbler system remove --name=default
Otherwise, it would be rather suprising. When you have the "default"
system record engaged the menus do not fire up.
