For reference, in the genesis that will come out using 7.3, we actually delete
that udev rule. I would have left it, but was having a race condition where
our init was so fast that the nic name could change while trying to use it.

Hi Christian -
Thanks - I will look at renaming the interface. As for the name, DNS is working
properly on the client. We are not stopping/disabling NetworkManager during the
install. Should we? I should also mention that RedHat 7.1 booted and the name
was set properly.
Thanks,
Damir

Damir,
The net device naming you're seeing is consistent net device naming. There's a
write up for disabling it on the RHEL documentation site.
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Networking_Guide/sec-Disabling_Consistent_Network_Device_Naming.html
I believe you can place the "net.ifnames=0" option in bootparams.addkcmdline
If I'm not mistaken, the hostname should be set by the DHCP server and then
hard coded using the hardeths postscript, if it's configured to run. Is DNS
working properly on the client? Are you stopping/disabling NetworkManager
during install?

Subject: [xcat-user] redhat 7.3 and xCAT-2.9.1
Hi All,
Our management server is running RedHat 6.6 and xcat version 2.9.1.
We are hoping to upgrade all of our compute clients to RedHat 7 by July of this
year.
We are going from stateless to stateful (installed on local hard drive) images.
To that end, I've done copycds of RH7.3 ISO and have followed xCAT document on
creating a new install image.
We got one of the compute nodes installed and booted with 7.3 but there are
couple of problems:
1. Interface is named eno1 <-- we would like to change this permanently on boot
to eth0
2. hostname is not set <-- node boots with localhost for hostname
Any help is appreciated.
Damir
