Yes, we would like to be able to initiate the install from the Cobbler web or CL: enable netboot via the web, reboot via the web, etc. The primary use case is Autotest, and it would be nice if we could treat physical boxes/blades and virtual machines the same.  However, we also envision engineers wanting to reinstall their own machines, and one way regardless of real/virtual would be nice; teaching everyone two ways to do one thing seems silly if it can be avoided.

So... koan is cobbler's took for doing these things.  So that is technically correct.  Do you mean from Cobbler Web? ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list cobbler(a)lists.fedorahosted.org https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler End of cobbler Digest, Vol 48, Issue 2 ************************************** _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list cobbler(a)lists.fedorahosted.org https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
