Hello,
I am now testing the deployment of Centos 7 in my environment and I've
noticed that the ifcfg-eth postscript is not geared to work with it. For
starters Centos 7 doesn't install ifconfig by default, though I've solved
that with my kickstart, but more to the point the postscript explicitly
looks for "Ethernet" in the ifconfig line to grab the interface name which
doesn't work on systemd OSes like Centos 7. And of course there's the
change from "eth" interface names to "ens" and a variety of other names.
I changed the line that looked like this in the postscript:
interfaces=$(ifconfig -a | grep "Ethernet" | awk '{print $1}')
To this:
interfaces=$(ifconfig -a | egrep "Ethernet|ens" | awk '{print $1}')
And while that does parse out the ens interface names now they come with a
colon tacked on to the end of them in the ifconfig output like this:
ens160:
ens192:
I can parse that out with a regex substitution to remove the colon, but
before I hack the default script up too much has there been an alternative
ifcfg-eth postscript released for systems like this? I'm using this script
to change the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* files from using DHCP
to the static addresses defined through xCAT, which works fine on my Centos
6 OSes.
This is my xCAT version:
lsxcatd -v
Version 2.11 (git commit 9ea36ca6163392bf9ab684830217f017193815be, built
Mon Nov 30 05:43:11 EST 2015)
Thanks,
Josh Nielsen
