I've got some systems that are provisioning SLES12sp1 statelessly - the systems come up with their provisioning interface configured, but no default route.

On RedHat I'd set the GATEWAYDEV in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts -- but I can't find an equivalent for openSUSE/SLES.

There is no NetworkManager, Wicked or ifcfg files:

# ls /etc/sysconfig/network/
config  dhcp  if-down.d  if-up.d  ifcfg-lo  ifcfg.template  network  providers  scripts

Some additional context:

# ifconfig eth2
eth2      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX  
          inet addr:192.168.1.29  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::21e:67ff:fecb:f26f/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

          Memory:92020000-9203ffff 

# route -n

192.168.1.0      0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0     U     0      0        0 eth2

I've tried creating a routes and ifroute-ethX files with no success.

have you tried passing DHCP option 3 during the PXE boot ?

  • I think normally this would work -- but as a side effect of how my system is being provisioned it doesn't solve my case. I think this particular issue is beyond the scope of PXE/DHCP/SLES. – John Westlund Aug 26 '16 at 01:25
