Sorry, I was just thinking about relying on DHCP to get the IP address, then 
using the Metadata Service, on XenAPI were config drive has not been 
implemented.

I was only really worried about the case of Flat without DHCP that config drive 
can address.

Given things are going this way, I guess that increases the need of 
implementing config drive for XenAPI. Has anyone already got plans to implement 
that in Folsom? I might try to find someone in our Citrix team to take a look 
at implementing that.

Cheers,
John
