4 years ago Thanks for the report. Afterburn does not process the argument itself, it only propagates that for other software to consume in the initramfs.
I think you are facing either one of:
- a wrong syntax (I think the manpage is actually telling you to use
ip=<...>:ens192:off:8.8.8.8) - NetworkManager not correctly consuming the
ip=
As such, I'm closing this bug here, but feel free to continue your investigation and contact your OCP support channel for further assistance.
If you indeed confirm this is a bug in parsing ip= parameters, the proper place to report that is a bugzilla ticket against NetworkManager for RHEL8.
Feature Request
guestinfo.afterburn.initrd.network-kargs should be able to read DNS nameservers for VMware environments.
According to dracut, this should work: ip=client-IP:[peer]:gateway-IP:netmask:client_hostname<interface:{none|off|dhcp|on|any|dhcp6|auto6|ibft}[:[dns1][:dns2]]
Environment
VMware version 15
What hardware/cloud provider/hypervisor is being used to run Afterburn? I'm using this for deploying RHCOS on VMware
Desired Feature
Other Information
this works as expected IPCFG="ip=10.20.30.42::10.20.30.254:255.255.255.0:mynode01:ens192:off"
I have tested below settings and all won't work: IPCFG="ip=10.20.30.42::10.20.30.254:255.255.255.0:mynode01:ens192:off:dns ip" IPCFG="ip=10.20.30.42::10.20.30.254:255.255.255.0:mynode01:ens192:off:dns ip:dns ip" IPCFG="ip=10.20.30.42::10.20.30.254:255.255.255.0:mynode01:ens192:off nameserver=dns ip"
