No. I don't consider it an error. It is true that this service will
install a network configuration that will likely be ignored if NWAM is
enabled or enabled at some later point. But it would still serve as the
original conifguration that would be restored by NWAM if NWAM was
subsequently disabled.
IIRC, since this would be the first run of nwam (on boot, post install) then if
using NWAM Phase 1, it *will* attempt to import the existing non-nwam
configuration - especially if that current configuration configures static IPs,
and NIS or LDAP - this was something that was specifically targeted at internal
consumers of NWAM upgrading with static IPs.
Yes, and this was exactly the point I was trying to make. This service
is installing an initial configuration. NWAM already handles this case.
So, if this service sets up a network/physical:default configuration before
network/physical:nwam would be run, things should upgrade to NWAM - at least
part of the way - exactly how much I'm not 100% sure of. I really would suggest
getting input from the NWAM engineers on this part.
Thanks,
Darren.
