Hi, dom0 CentOS 5.6 with updates and Virtualization group installed. domU CentOS 5.6 install I have configured a conf file and a kickstart and the install goes well, however, it seems to be reverting to a dhcp install rather then grabbing the eth information I give it. Also, it creates an ifcfg-eth0.bak file with the info I give it with a different MAC address, not sure how it gets either. If there is anything you know about this please let me know. If I remove ifcfg-eth0, mv ifcfg-eth0.bak to ifcfg-eth0 and remove the HWADDR and do a /etc/init.d/network restart it works fine with the correct IP. ifcfg-eth0 # Xen Virtual Ethernet DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=yes HWADDR=00:16:3e:06:33:04 ifcfg-eth0.bak # Xen Virtual Ethernet DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=static DHCPCLASSHWADDR=00:16:3E:72:6B:32 IPADDR=192.168.1.23 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 ONBOOT=yes test1.cfg kernel = "/etc/xen/images/vmlinuz" ramdisk = "/etc/xen/images/initrd.img" extra = "text ks=http://192.168.1.21/test1.ks.cfg" name = "test1" memory = "1024" disk = [ "phy:/dev/vg1/test1,xvda,w" ] vif = [ ''bridge=xenbr1'', ] vcpus=1 on_reboot = ''destroy'' on_crash = ''destroy'' test1.ks.cfg install url --url http://192.168.1.21/centos lang en_US.UTF-8 keyboard us network --device=eth0 --bootproto=static --ip=192.168.1.23 --netmask=255.255.255 .0 --gateway=192.168.1.1 --nameserver=192.168.1.1 --hostname=test1 -- noipv6 --onboot=yes rootpw sc4300.1 firewall --enabled --port=22:tcp authconfig --enableshadow --enablemd5 selinux --disabled timezone --utc America/Los_Angeles bootloader --location=mbr --driveorder=xvda --append="console=xvc0" reboot clearpart --all --initlabel --drives=xvda part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=1024 --ondisk=xvda part pv.2 --size=0 --grow --ondisk=xvda volgroup VolGroup00 --pesize=16384 pv.2 logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=LogVol00 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=1024 --grow logvol swap --fstype swap --name=LogVol01 --vgname=VolGroup00 --size=2048 --grow --maxsize=4096 %packages @base Best regards, Randy _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hi Todd, Do you know where I am to pickup that MAC address for the vif? Is it the MAC of the eth from ifconfig that is already being used for the dom0''s connection or something else?

ok, nevermind, read it here, it is pretty arbitrary: http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenNetworking#head-d5446face7e308f577e5aee1c72cf9d156903722 will try and see if that fixes the eth ip issue.

No, I added a mac address in the range suggested into the vif and it does does the same thing with the dhcp and ip addresses.

Hi Randy, As Todd noted kudzu is the culprit here. Disable it and it will stop overwriting your configs on boot. Kudzu is only useful on physical servers where your hardware might change etc, but it''s really just annoying. It is actually designed to detect and autoconfigure new hardware. Joseph.
