Yes, we would like to be able to initiate the install from the Cobbler web or CL: enable netboot via the web, reboot via the web, etc.
The primary use case is Autotest, and it would be nice if we could treat physical boxes/blades and virtual machines the same. However, we also envision engineers wanting to reinstall their own machines, and one way regardless of real/virtual would be nice; teaching everyone two ways to do one thing seems silly if it can be avoided.

Do you mean from Cobbler Web? ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list cobbler@lists.fedorahosted.org https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler End of cobbler Digest, Vol 48, Issue 2 ************************************** _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list cobbler@lists.fedorahosted.org https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
