Hi Mahmoud, 

1) Add host allows you to add multiple nodes (pre-populate). To do this use:


addhost -f [filename of mac addresses] -j [interface the compute nodes use to 
provision from] -n [nodegroup name]


The mac address file format is the following:

aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
bb:cc:dd:ee:ff:aa
...

2) When you mean extend what specifically, packages or scripts? If you have 3rd 
party packages drop them in /depot/contrib/[distribution]/[version]/x86_64 then 
run the ngedit command to select the custom package(s) you want to install.

3) Using the ngedit command you copy a node group and modify the node group to 
your liking.

Thanks, 
Shawn.
