Description of problem: I was wondering if it would be possible to allow kickstart metadata on "Install Options" to configure multiple NICs. I could not find away to configure beaker to add the following commands to kickstart. network --device=00:23:7D:E5:05:58 network --device=00:10:18:88:E7:FE --nodefroute network --device=00:10:18:88:E7:FC --nodefroute although it is possible to add to kickstart if I edit a recipe and add the following lines <ksappends> <ksappend> network --device=00:23:7D:E5:05:58 network --device=00:10:18:88:E7:FE --nodefroute network --device=00:10:18:88:E7:FC --nodefroute </ksappend> </ksappends> Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.11.3 Benefits: This feature would make much simpler to run automated jobs as there would be no need to edit the job to add those extra lines.
Since you've got hardcoded MAC addresses here, I assume the config is specific to one particular system. In that case you could create a file /etc/beaker/snippets/per_system/network/fqdn.example.com and put your network commands in there. I'm not sure if that would be more or less convenient for you than putting the config in your job XML every time?
(In reply to comment #1) Oh, the other consideration is that putting the file in /etc/beaker/snippets will make it apply to every job which is run on that system. That might not be what you want.
Hello, thank you for opening issue in Beaker project. This issue was marked with component "web ui". As we are not planning to address any further issues in current UI, due to technical stack and not being able to work with Python 3 codebase, I'm closing this issue as WONTFIX. New UI will be reimplemented within new versions of Beaker. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me. Best regards, Martin <martin.styk>
