Well that was tempting fate, I just did some checking and noticed that
our config appears to have bitrotted and the bridging we had
configured before no longer works, so I'm going to look into use the
xCAT support for MICs now, especially as we've been lucky and the
naming convention we've used for our MICs matches xCAT's examples. :-)

Two issues that might bite us which I'd love some advice on:

1) All our nodes are diskless statelite, is that expected to work, or
not to work, with the kit?

2) We run the latest RHEL updates on the nodes and that means we've
had to rebuild the Intel MIC kernel module for them (trivial to do),
do we need to roll that into the kit or should we just install that
via yum as we do now?

All the best,
Chris
