I would like to automate the setting of "netboot_enabled false"
for the newly built cobbler system on the cobbler master once
the cobbler slave has finished kickstarting this host. This is
automated on the cobbler slave responsible for building the host,
however this will get wiped once the cobbler replicate command
runs. Is there a relatively simple way (trigger perhaps?) that
will facilitate toggling the netboot_enabled flag on the master?
The status of servers installing is triggered by commands like
wget "http://.../trig/mode/pre/system/<clientname>"
in the kickstart-instructions.
One of these triggers 'client started installing' and one
'client is done'. You might try manually extending the kick-
start template so not only your cobbler slave but also your
cobbler-master gets informed of the clients status.
