I'm using the ip and nicips.eth0 and nicips.eth2 attributes on the node to configure the correct IP addresses that I want. Also, be sure to use nicextraparams.eth2=MTU=9000 if you want Jumbo frames on your 10 GB network.

Ok, I'll check that out.

I've just read the man.
Your idea is interesting indeed, even in the case you wouldn't mind mixing administrative and workload data in the 10Gb/s connection as it would remove the fear of PXE on the "wrong" nic.

The only thing is that we use a formula in the hosts table for the primary ip (actually the only ip we have for one node, BMC ip aside of course) so it's derived from the node number/name. Would nicpips attribute support the formula ?

Finally, I'm using the nichostnamesuffixes attribute so the nodes have different, but predictable, names on the 1 Gb network and the 10 Gb network.

So you've got 2 names in DNS after makedns I guess ?
But how does it translate in sysconfig scripts/files (or the equivalent is non centos/redhat OS) on the node ? What does 'hostname' returns if run on the node ?

Thanks.
