Michael, could I trouble you to put any thoughts on the utility of this
RFE into https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1043987 ?

Just so RedHat knows there's some community desire for it,

Thanks,

Jeff

	Hello,

	 

	We are also very interested in having a function to allow the
predefinition of systems before kickstarting them. Something similar to
the functions in cobbler web interface would be great.

	If it helps to expedite that we could send a RFE.

	In my virtualized only environment where I use spacewalk for
provisioning I manage to do this by a combination of manually configured
MAC address for the virtual machine combined with a DHCP server that
provides IP addresses for virtual machines based on their MAC address.
Next to this I configured DNS that allows me to lookup the address and
get the hostname and configure NICs. This works fine for now, but it
would be great to ease this as this takes a considerable amount of time
to setup and an current acceptable amount of time to manage.

	 

	It would be a great idea to address this someway in future
developments of spacewalk or currenltly developed Katello environment.

	 

	Rick.

		For provisioning new systems in my existing Spacewalk
infrastructure, is 
		there a better practice way than to run cobbler system
add from the CLI? 
		That is, am I missing a menu option somewhere in
Spacewalk to input a 
		new IP, MAC address, hostname, and Kickstart profile for
a host?
		
		If I'm not missing anything and such a menu option does
not exist, is it 
		on the radar as a feature request?
		
		Thanks,
		Jeff
