rocky9+warewulf+slurm network file not created

[luciandf]

Hello all,

I keep having problems with this new v3.x recipe. The network file is not created. There is a txt file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts saying that now the network configuration files are stored in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections (because why not!) but there is nothing being generated there.

Does warewulf 3 know that if should put stuff there? Can I make it aware of this?

It works in our CI system. Are you talking about SMS or clients? Warewulf 3 still uses sysconfig on the compute nodes and it still works.

there is nothins network related being created in the image. all I find is just this file called readme-ifcfg-rh.txt containing:

NetworkManager stores new network profiles in keyfile format in the
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ directory.

Previously, NetworkManager stored network profiles in ifcfg format
in this directory (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/). However, the ifcfg
format is deprecated. By default, NetworkManager no longer creates
new profiles in this format.

Connection profiles in keyfile format have many benefits. For example,
this format is INI file-based and can easily be parsed and generated.

Each section in NetworkManager keyfiles corresponds to a NetworkManager
setting name as described in the nm-settings(5) and nm-settings-keyfile(5)
man pages. Each key-value-pair in a section is one of the properties
listed in the settings specification of the man page.

If you still use network profiles in ifcfg format, consider migrating
them to keyfile format. To migrate all profiles at once, enter:

# nmcli connection migrate

This command migrates all profiles from ifcfg format to keyfile
format and stores them in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/.

Alternatively, to migrate only a specific profile, enter:

# nmcli connection migrate <profile_name|UUID|D-Bus_path>

For further details, see:
* nm-settings-keyfile(5)
* nmcli(1)

and the same thing I have on the SMS... the network connection file is at /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/enp6s18.nmconnection. System is Rocky 9.3.

The configuration via sysconfig still works. I guess you are missing certain configuration variables before running the recipe.

Take a look at our results: http://repos.ohpc.io/stats/results/3/3.1/0-LATEST-OHPC-3.1-almalinux9.2-x86_64/console.out

If you search for c_ip[0] you see what we set. Do you have those values correctly set for for compute nodes?

[luciandf]

something is happening because there is no network config file being generated on the client image. i tried again after installing the docs-ohpc package and finally found the recipe and inputs file. still nothing is happening.

is there another way to do this?
