List, Previous versions of Cobbler (2.1) would render out the host entries for systems that were netboot enabled and netboot disabled. I believe the behavior was that you could have systems defined as static, and management, with their subnets added and all that information was available in dhcp host entries. If you've chosen to use cobbler to manage your dhcp configuration and you want to be able to have the subnet set and the interface designated as the management interface, previously you would make sure static was set and everything worked by rendering out host entries and if it was netboot disabled it would just boot from the local disk. Right now you end up with a dhcpd.conf with:
# group for Cobbler DHCP tag: default group { } I was chatting in the irc channel with some of the devs and I guess these changes were made to support an arch that wasn't working. I thought static meant that this is a static lease which was why the netmask and management option appear. That was my understanding. I have lots of servers running cobbler 2.1 and code written to pull in those options. As I've started to test with the newer versions of Cobbler I noticed the behavior has changed. I would like to have the same behavior available in the newer versions of Cobbler. I'm curious what other people think about that. We could test for the misbehaving arch's and make it a special case. It's been awhile since I was using Cobbler so I'm not sure how long it's been like this... Thoughts?
