There's also "cobbler status" which uses similar triggers to log when installs start/stop. This doesn't track who is doing them, which would primarily something we'd have to add .. the webapp has login info on edits, but who started a PXE install is not really info we can gather up since it's an external thing. [r...@localhost cobbler]# cobbler status ip |target |start |state 10.11.231.91 |profile:F10-i386 |Thu Mar 19 17:29:44 2009|finished 127.0.0.1 |profile:profile0http:|Wed Dec 31 18:59:59 1969|finished 192.168.122.132|system:F10 |Tue Mar 24 13:02:57 2009|unknown/stalled 192.168.122.27 |system:F10A |Tue Mar 24 14:13:56 2009|unknown/stalled Perhaps that's a start, other ideas welcome. --Michael _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
