Hi I'm pretty new to RHN Satellite server and Kickstart and have a couple of questions. We have the Satellite server setup with the needed channels and a kickstart profile ready for those channels. Bare Metall installation is running ok ending with a installed system with no hostname (registered as "unknown" in the satellite server) and ip from DHCP. We wonder now: - How does the server get his Hostname? - How do we configure the Networks (there are severals including some bonding)? What's best practice? - cloning a template kickstart profile for each server and adding the values? - create pre/post scripts who ask for the information during install? as we like this idea - is there some documentation/examples/helper scripts to get a this nicely done? - using config channels and also some kind of scripts to get hostname and ip? Also: - is cobbler supporting/integrating with the satellite server - or is there another way of doing this nicely Remarks: We need to install and configure rhel4 and 5 systems. There is no cmdb available who has the config stored. cheers Andreas _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
