Currently we run various things like ganglia, puppet and nagios on our 
management server. We'd like to slowly start moving them off - 
potentially to different servers.

Is it possible in xCAT to add a CNAME record to the dns - so that we can 
switch the service just by switching the DNS record and not having to 
move config encoded in our puppet setup.

I can't see how to do this in

http://xcat-docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/guides/admin-guides/basic_concepts/network_planning/xcat_net_planning.html

or
http://xcat-docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/advanced/networks/index.html

I guess I could add an additional host (and therefore an A record), 
which would have a similar effect - though reverse DNS won't work. I'm 
slightly concerned it might have other consequences.

Comments?
