Hi,

Small message to inform the community that a new systemimager build 
(4.9.0-0.20190402git) introduce a major enhancement: the client network 
configuration.
This configuration supports most common network usages:

  *   Ipv4/ipv6 support (ipv6 support is basic)
  *   Ethernet and Infiniband device support
  *   Aliases support (still not loading on NetworkManager controlled 
interfaces)
  *   Bonding support

Doc not yet written but a fairly complete example is available here:
https://github.com/finley/SystemImager/blob/initrd-from-imageserver-and-dont-package-initrd/doc/examples/net-config.xml

All available options are described here: 
https://github.com/finley/SystemImager/blob/initrd-from-imageserver-and-dont-package-initrd/lib/dracut/modules.d/51systemimager/network-config.xsd

Your network configuration file should be placed in 
/var/lib/systemimager/scripts/network-configs/ on the image server and be named 
in the same way disks layout (.xml extention is optional). (example: 
imagename.xml or hostname.xml or default.xml ….)

To validate your network configuration (before trying to image your client) 
just type the following command (on the image server):

si_lint –network-config=myimage.xml
where myimage.xml is your network configuration file.
(don’t provide full path)

There are still issues with aliases and NetworkManager (not loaded), but aside 
that everything seems working.

Happy testing.
