Andy Kurth commented on VCL-961:
--------------------------------
The image capture/enable DHCP part of the code is finished. I still need to
extend the code which sets a static IP address. It needs to determine whether
a bridge has been configured in the image. As of now it will use the regular
eth* interface name and won't work correctly.
> VCL may clobber custom network configurations on Red Hat 6.x-based images

> Key: VCL-961
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-961
> Project: VCL
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: vcld (backend)
> Affects Versions: 2.4.2
> Reporter: Andy Kurth
> Assignee: Andy Kurth
> Fix For: 2.5
>
>
> During image capture, vcld recreates
> /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-eth0 with a very simple
> DHCP configuration. This breaks things if the image creator configured a
> bridged interface.
> The code should be updated to intelligently reconfigure these files when
> enabling DHCP, leaving a bridge intact if configured.
> Any Red Hat 6.x and earlier based image is affected including CentOS 6.x.
