Does anyone have any experience or ideas how to acquire (ethernet)
interface names dynamically?
For instance, in setting up secondary networks, entries in the "nics" table
require both the interface name and associated network information.
However, these interface names aren't known before the OS is installed
(unless one node has already been installed and the interface names checked
manually). Furthermore, the interface names change based on a combination
of OS version, hardware model, and install type combination. So it's not
very robust.
My thought is to setup secondary networks using a postbootscript. I'm
looking for ideas to scan each ethernet interfaces and discover the network
information to setup the secondary networks using that information.
Cheers,
