SuSE supports both formats. Anyway when you have to install a lot of nodes if more easy to use ifcfg-eth* naming. Usually I delete the files /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id* in the golden image, so that they're not transferrend on the imaged clients and allows systemconfigurator to do the right job.
Moreover I don't remember if SLES10 uses the persistent mapping for network interfaces (SLES9 for example does it by default). In this case remember to check this issue in your golden image: http://wiki.systemimager.org/index.php/Troubleshooting#Cloning_a_SuSE10_golden_client_with_SystemImager Regards, -Andrea Jing CDL Sun wrote: > Hi, Andrea: > > I have tried 3.7.4 today, the problem below has been fixed, but I ran > into another one: > after installation, the new node's ip address was not configed, but the > network card could be recognized correctly. > and I checked the directory /etc/sysconfig/network, found the > ifcfg-eth-id-MAC file is not replaced, but the same as it on golden-client. > I mean ifcfg-eth-id-00:0d:60:4e:42:02 is the config file on golden-client. > > /xblade06:~ # cd /etc/sysconfig/network// > /xblade06:/etc/sysconfig/network # ll/ > /total 77/ > /-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9253 Oct 11 23:47 config/ > /-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6706 Oct 11 23:50 dhcp/ > /drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 88 Oct 11 23:50 if-down.d/ > /drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 88 Oct 11 23:50 if-up.d/ > /-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 231 Oct 12 01:02 //ifcfg-eth-id-00:0d:60:4e:42:02/ > /-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 143 Oct 12 00:18 //ifcfg-eth0/ > /-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 141 Jun 28 05:10 ifcfg-lo/ > /-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 27470 Jun 28 05:10 ifcfg.template/ > /-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 239 Jun 28 05:10 ifroute-lo/ > /drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 208 Oct 11 23:47 ifservices.template/ > /drwx------ 2 root root 48 Jun 16 21:20 providers/ > /-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 98 Oct 12 00:18 routes/ > /-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 24 Oct 12 00:18 routes.scbak/ > /drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1272 Oct 11 23:50 scripts/ > > The MAC on new node is 00:0D:60:9C:08:8E, and I also found a file > (ifcfg-eth0) in this directory, its content is the right configuration > of new IP, > so I renamed this file to ifcfg-eth-id-00:0D:60:9C:08:8E, restarted the > network service, and the IP address was configed correctly. > > PS:I think the file format of ifcfg-eth0 is for RedHat not for SLES10, > but the fact is it works:) > > I am not sure if it is a mistake of my operation or it is a real > problem? thank you very much for your help. > > > > Best Regards, > ----------------------------- > Sun jing(??) > IBM China Software Development Laboratory > Tel: (86-10) 82782244 ext.3625 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Address:8/F, Power Creative Building,No. 1, East Road, ShangDi, Beijing > 100085, P.R.China. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
