Hi Brandon,
thank you for your answer. However I am not able to tell you why not DHCP. Servers (dhcp clients) have 10Gbit fibre cables and are connected to switch ports with VLAN tagging - maybe it is problem to configure it. Who knows. I am not network admin and working only with info I have ;) I have to discuss it with colleagues from IP services team.
Anyway, now it is personal challenge to get it working even without DHCP ;)
This is why most Enterprises have ...
- Dedicated deployment/management network
- The default NIC of all servers connected to that network
- The default NIC of all servers enabled for PXEboot first
- An [semi-]automated process to enable DHCP with required
options for network boot (MAC, nextserver, filename, etc...)
But that aside ...
There's no reason you cannot walk around with USB keys that solve the issue of lack of DHCP, yet still have the Kickstart/Cobbler profiles, media, etc... on the network.
