Re: [xcat-user] confignetwork and localhost hostname

Hi Roosen, Nicolas

I am glad that `confignetwork` can work well in your postbootscripts.

Since `confignetwork` has some restrictions under postscripts in 2.14.6, it can work well in postbootscripts. I have enhance it running in postscripts in 2.15 branch, If you want to run it in postscripts, you can download latest `confignetwork` , `configeth` and `nicutils.sh` from 2.15 master branch.

Best Regards

yes you're right, I was mixing the two methods.

It still doesn't work when I use the "confignetwork" in the postscripts.
But postbootscript is fine for me.

So I did some tests recently, and it almost works (see below why) when
provisioning the node using the "postbootscript" method.

Now I have an issue with the Ethernet driver (i40e / i40iw on a Intel
X722 card) which does a core dump, but that's another story :-/

Thanks for you help.
Nicolas
