Hi,

I have a node that uses an old CCISS controller that has no driver support in EL7.2 any more. SO I am setting hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1 and hpsa.hpsa_simple_mode=1 and anaconda enables the controller and installs the operating system.

Unfortunately, after the final reboot, the kernel parameters are not set permanently. So I have added them a second time with the R:: prefix, but this does not help. How can I make them permanent without manually added them in a postscript?

Additionally, I have seen that addkcmdline set in node, group and osimage are not merged. Instead node ranks out group, and group ranks out osimage. Is this intended or can I somehow enable combining all addkcmdline settings somehow?
