Gilad,

We are refining our statement about the hosts.otherinterfaces to be more 
precise:  the hosts.otherinterfaces attribute will continue to be 
supported for additional hostname/IP pairs associated with the node that 
should be added to name resolution (/etc/hosts and DNS), but are not NICs 
that xCAT should configure when the node is deployed.  For the latter, the 
nics table, or nic attributes in the node object definition, should be 
used.  Of course, if you already have a customized postscript that was 
originally based on the configeth postscript that came in 2.7 or below, it 
should continue to work using the hosts.otherinterfaces information.  The 
xCAT postscripts confignics, configeth, configib in xCAT 2.8 and above 
will use the information from the nics table, not hosts.otherinterfaces.

Therefore, it will be appropriate to put the bmc hostname and ip in 
hosts.otherinterfaces long term (if you don't want to create a node object 
for the bmc).  Hope that clears it up.

Thx Lissa and Christopher! indeed worked. 

Another question - when the otherinterfaces methid will no longer be 
supported? asking for two reasons - 
1. current cluster already configured this way so adding nodes should be 
fairly easy and wondering if we should move to nics. 
2. no solution for the imm/bmc/ilo/whatever right now with nics.

> What is the correct way of using regex inside the nic table?

This is what we have:

#node,nicips,nichostnamesuffixes,nictypes,niccustomscripts,nicnetworks,nicaliases,comments,disable
"compute","|\D+(\d+)|ib0!10.4.102.($1*1)|","ib0!-ib","ib0!Infiniband",,"ib0!barcoo_infiniband",,,

This gives:

[root@barcoo-m consoles]# lsdef barcoo070 | grep nic
  installnic=mac
  nichostnamesuffixes.ib0=-ib
  nicips.ib0=10.4.102.70
  nicnetworks.ib0=barcoo_infiniband
  nictypes.ib0=Infiniband
  postscripts=confignics,setupntp,syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles
  primarynic=mac

Hope that helps!
Chris
