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 Regards, Christian Caruthers Lenovo Professional Services Mobile: 757-289-9872 -----Original Message----- From: Nicolas Roosen <nicolas.roo...@hpe.com> Sent: Wednesday, April 20, 2022 10:26 To: xCAT Users Mailing list <xcat-user@lists.sourceforge.net> 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.
