Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Joniel Pasqualetto 2019-11-26 15:22:54 UTC
Description of problem:

When host to be provisioned has multiple nics and provision interface is not the primary interface, kernel line generated  for iPXE contains the wrong ksdevice.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a host with 2 nics
2. Define one of the nics as primary and the other nic as provisioning
3. Render the iPXE template

Actual results:
mac address of the "ksdevice' parameter is the mac address of the primary  interface.

Expected results:
mac address of the 'ksdevice' parameter should be the mac address of the provision interface.

Additional info:

It's easy to fix, just use the variable @host.provision_interface.mac instead of @host.mac

Comment 3 Ondřej Pražák 2020-02-25 11:08:12 UTC
The change in the iPXE template has made it into 6.7 snaps already. Could QE verify this is fixed?

Comment 4 Roman Plevka 2020-03-05 09:07:42 UTC
VERIFIED
on sat6.7.0-14

The template is updated and correctly set the ksdevice to the MAC address of the provisioning iface
