In the short term, custom template and custom table is probably your best
bet.  We do allow schema 'plugins' with the recommendation of a table name
like 'x_<tablename>' to use names xCAT will never conflict with.

For iSCSI, we have iscsi table and do some target/initiator coordination
using the common data found there.  For FC we may one day provide a similar
facility, but have not yet.

Subject:        [xcat-user] custom field for linux SAN installation



Hello

Is it possible to define a custom-field that contains the device (san lun)
to install linux to and reference to that field inside the autoyast xml
file?

for example:
i want to install sles11.2 to a multipathed SAN-LUN  /dev/disk/by-id/
scsi-3600605b00310e0e015a814021b1e6c10
so to tell the installer the disk it needs to use: define a custom field
ie. "disk" and then use that field in the sles11.tmpl ie:
#TABLE:custom:key=disk:value#

TIA
