Subject: Re: Kickstart and snippet


..SNIP..


Doesn't that destroy all cooperation between cobbler and our Spacewalk server?

I've gotten more references to "my kickstart templates" - I have no idea where 
they might be.

I've found some samples in /var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/ where I've tried to 
comment out the snippet to no avail.

I've also tried commenting out the snippet in all files under 
/var/lib/rhn/kickstarts/wizard as well, this does not affect my kickstart-files 
either.

Please help, where are the templates used by cobbler and/or Spacewalk?

Sadly I cannot comment on the integration b/w Spacewalk and Cobbler, since I 
don't run Spacewalk.  Satellite is used at my organization but not by my 
team/department, however on occasion I need to register a system from my group 
to the corporate Satellite server.

However, I think I can help you find the correct kickstart template in order to 
remove the 'register_redhat' snippet.

First you need to find out what kickstart an affected system is using:
[r...@labcore snippets]# cobbler system dumpvars --name=core-bpezan-test | grep 
^kickstart
kickstart : /var/lib/cobbler/kickstarts/default.ks

Then look for this line in the file returned from the above command:
$SNIPPET('redhat_register')

and comment it out, like so (the space after the # is important):
# $SNIPPET('redhat_register')


If you wanted more granular control, you can put some cheetah/python code in 
your kickstart template to either run the redhat_register snippet or not based 
on a '--ksmeta' variable.  I do something similar to this so that I can 
register different RHEL systems to RHN/Satellite with different keys.  I can 
provide an example of this config if you'd like.
