Hi Jarod,
Thank you very much ! I will build a virtual lab and I'll try it !
Hi Jonathan,
The link you've provided is useful when you want to re-install the nodes -
I can't allow that :)
I used regular expressions to define my host so I assume I only need to
change one line :)
All my clients are configured as DHCP, when the DHCP server is the xCAT
server.
Thank you for the suggestions though :)
Thank you,
Dennis.

Subversion Kills Productivity. Get off Subversion & Make the Move to Perforce.
With Perforce, you get hassle-free workflows. Merge that actually works.
Faster operations. Version large binaries. Built-in WAN optimization and the
freedom to use Git, Perforce or both. Make the move to Perforce.
