Description of problem: Provisioning a RHEL5 system with static bootproto creates two network-scripts: one with dhcp bootproto and other with bootproto as none Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Satellite 6.2.x RHEL 5.x How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to Subnet --> Select IPAM as none and Boot mode as 'Static' 2. Provision a fresh RHEL5 system Actual results: Two files are created. One with bootproto as dhcp and second with bootproto as none. Expected results: The system must have one network-script ethernet (assuming that only one interface has been added), with bootproto as static. Additional info: [root@xyz ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 # Virtio Network Device DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=yes HWADDR=00:1a:4a:34:6d:00 [root@xyz ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.bak BOOTPROTO="none" IPADDR="192.168.100.97" NETMASK="255.255.255.0" GATEWAY="192.168.100.18" DEVICE=eth0 HWADDR="00:1a:4a:34:6d:00" ONBOOT=yes PEERDNS=yes PEERROUTES=yes DNS1=192.168.100.18
Hello, Is there any update on this. I was able to reproduce this issue on my satellite @6.2.3 But, My satellite is @6.2.8 and I am unable to reproduce the issue now. But, the customer has upgraded to 6.2.7 and is still facing this issue. The customer is required to move the ifcfg-eth0.bak to ifcfg-eth0 and then restart the system for the system to be able to get an IP, otherwise the system fails to get an IP after it is provisioned. Issue faced for only rhel5 systems. Regards, Mihir

Thank you for your interest in Satellite 6. We have evaluated this request, and we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this, please feel free to contact Rich Jerrido or Bryan Kearney. Thank you.
