This patch adds a means of creating "groups" of systems within, but not limited to, PXE/netboot based images. This initial patch is a submission is a request for review, I am willing to support/modify if additional changes are needed/requested. Some additional notes. To create a group a new file called "KIWI/config.group" needs to be used on the boot server, it can contain the following content: KIWI_GROUP="test1, test2, test3" test1_KIWI_MAC_LIST="xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, etc" test2_KIWI_MAC_LIST="xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, etc" test3_KIWI_MAC_LIST="xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, etc" test1, test2 and test3 are simply group names, and can be anything within the following range of characters "a-zA-Z0-9_". The xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx represent the MAC address of the system being "grouped". In addition, a "group config" file for the the group itself needs to be created, based on the group name(s) listed in KIWI_GROUP, such that the above example would have the following files: KIWI/config.test1 KIWI/config.test2 KIWI/config.test3 The contents of these files are exactly the same as would be applied to a config.<MAC> file. The only difference is that any machine listed in the appropriate "xxx_KIWI_MAC_LIST" will use the configuration file vs having one configuration file for each machine. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
