You could feasibly use callouts within the kickstart template to confiruee the 
network using the nics table. Alternatively, you could try setting up a 
prescript to configure network interfaces.

The "built-in" way to configure other interfaces is to use the confignetwork 
postscript and the nics table. If you search for confignetwork on the docs 
site, you'll see plenty of links to set up networking (additional interfaces, 
aliases, bonds, etc.) https://xcat-docs.readthedocs.io

Subject: [External] [xcat-user] Configure secondary network nic during 
installation

Hello, is there a way to configure a secondary network interface during the 
initial deployment of a diskfull node ?

[installnic] works for the primary interface, but in order to access external 
repositories during the deployment we need to setup the secondary NIC as well.

I can create a postscript which runs right before the other packages 
installation, but if there is a internal xCAT way for doing this, that would be 
even better.


Thanks.
