Hi,
I have a large number of systems I need to install (250+), and I want to generate the network config files for the NICs (of which there are 4) using a script rather than having to go into yast on every single server to do it (because I am using bonding and need the configs there to start with). I have everything I need to generate the ifcfg-eth-id config - except I can't see how to generate the UNIQUE value. Looking at the comments in /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg.template (which say that UNIQUE is an internal variable for YaST), I'm not even sure I need to worry about it?
So, the questions are:
1) Is there something that already exists that I can use to generate the config rather that writing my own script? 2) If not, do I need to generate a UNIQUE entry? 3) If I need the UNIQUE entry, now can I generate it?
Thanks
Colin.
