Damir,

The net device naming you're seeing is consistent net device naming. There's a 
write up for disabling it on the RHEL documentation site.

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Networking_Guide/sec-Disabling_Consistent_Network_Device_Naming.html

I believe you can place the "net.ifnames=0" option in bootparams.addkcmdline

If I'm not mistaken, the hostname should be set by the DHCP server and then 
hard coded using the hardeths postscript, if it's configured to run. Is DNS 
working properly on the client? Are you stopping/disabling NetworkManager 
during install?

Subject: [xcat-user] redhat 7.3 and xCAT-2.9.1

Hi All,

Our management server is running RedHat 6.6 and xcat version 2.9.1.

We are hoping to upgrade all of our compute clients to RedHat 7 by July of this 
year.

We are going from stateless to stateful (installed on local hard drive) images.

To that end, I've done copycds of RH7.3 ISO and have followed xCAT document on 
creating a new install image.

We got one of the compute nodes installed and booted with 7.3 but there are 
couple of problems:

1. Interface is named eno1 <-- we would like to change this permanently on boot 
to eth0
2. hostname is not set <-- node boots with localhost for hostname

Any help is appreciated.
Damir
