Lissa K. Valletta 8-3/B10 Poughkeepsie, NY 12601 (tie 293) 433-3102 From: "Viviano, Brad" <[email protected]> To: xCAT Users Mailing list <[email protected]>, Date: 12/27/2013 09:46 AM Subject: [xcat-user] Expanding template information in node kickstart. Hello, I've looked through the WIKI and can't seem to find this answer. I have this template defined in the hosts table: "login-ib0","|\D+(\d+).*$|172.40.5.($1-0)|",,"Login nodes IB interface",, Makehosts/makedns works fine, so I know the template is correct. I am trying to, during the install process get it to automatically create the ifcfg-ib0 interface based on that: /bin/cat > /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ib0 << EOF DEVICE="ib0" BOOTPROTO="static" IPADDR= NETMASK="#TABLE:networks:netname=ib:mask#" ONBOOT="yes" IPV6INIT="no" EOF Problem is, I don't know how to expand the "login-ib0" template to have it build the correct IP address. If I put IPADDR="#TABLE:hosts:node=#TABLE:hosts:THISHOST:node#:ip#" it creates it as IPADDR="|\D+(\d+).*$|172.20.5.($1-0)|" I'm guessing I need another directive around the above to tell it to expand the template and compute the correct IP address based on that. But I can't find docs on the WIKI that explains how to do that. Can anyone point me at a page that gives more details.
