Hi,
I've been testing migrating to fai 5 from 4. I'm currently using fai-5.3.6, on Ubuntu xenial, but with a Debian stretch nfsroot [ due to lack of dracut support in ubuntu ]. When I build a host, the boot all works ok and the build process starts fine. However, the hostname of the instance is somehow getting set to the FQDN. It sounds like a small problem, but has a knock on effect on some of our custom class assignment scripts. I know that dhcp is sending the correct host-name. It looks like FAI set's the HOSTNAME variable from this script passed from dhclient: root 1531 0.0 0.0 21484 1076 ? Ss 10:21 0:00 dhclient -lf /dev/null -cf /usr/share/fai/dhclient-fai.conf -sf /usr/share/fai/dhclient-fai-script eth0 Am I right in thinking that? Any ideas on how I can fix or debug this so HOSTNAME is set to the host-name requested from DHCP? It's not even obvious to me where the dhcp config for fai that calls that script is set. Any help or info is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Cheers, Just -- Notice: This email is confidential and may contain copyright material of members of the Ocado Group.
