Hi Francois.

If you only have a management node (no service nodes), then you simply list
the interfaces that you want DHCP to run against:

"dhcpinterfaces","eth0",,

If you have service nodes, then you list the interfaces for the different
nodes.  So, if you want to run DHCP on eth0 for xCAT Management Server and
on eth1 on Service Nodes, then you'd have something like this:

"dhcpinterfaces","mn|eth0;service|eth1",,

Hope this helps

Cheers,
Lawrence Cooper

Thanks Jim,

The person who did the xcat configuration didn't set dhcpinterfaces in the
site
table at all. I am bit confused about your last section about assigning
different nic for different nodes. What would it look like in tabdump?
