Thread-topic: virt-install & kickstart

Maybe I’m going about this the wrong way, but I want to create 10 virtual domains each with their own IP (172.16.10.150 -> 172.16.10.160)

 

I was using virt-install, but I then have to modify the kickstart file, changing the IP address manually each time.  Is there an easier way where I can specify the IP address for eth0 on the command line?

 

virt-install -p—location=http://172.16.10.101/x86_64/—noautoconsole—file=/dev/vg_xen/lv_dom1—name=dom1—ram=4096—vnc -x “ks=http://172.16.10.101/ks.cfg ip=172.16.10.150 netmask=255.255.255.0 dns=65.24.7.6 gateway=172.16.10.1”

 

 

 

My kickstart file:

bootloader --location=mbr
