| | 217 | ncm-network goal: interface and routing configuration |
| | 218 | * Basically what ip command does: ip layer configuration |
| | 219 | |
| | 220 | Advanced features like MTU, TCP params should be in another components? |
| | 221 | * Risk of conflict managing the same files? |
| | 222 | * Be sure not to manage the same param in 2 components |
| | 223 | * bonding is something that should probably be moved to a component dedicated to interface management |
| | 224 | |
| | 225 | Minimal requirements for new ncm-network initial version |
| | 226 | * Configuring IP address, basic routing information on all interfaces present in the machine |
| | 227 | * Not necessarily all config parameters made persistent but at least all those that are necessary to have the network working and all those parameters that require a network restart |
| | 228 | |
| | 229 | Investigate the possibility to inteface with NetworkManager daemon to do the network configuration. |
| | 230 | * Check features available in the SL5 version or ability to upgrade it |
| | 231 | |
| | 232 | Schema: review the current description under /system |
| | 233 | * Making it component specific if we split network configuration between several components |
| | 234 | * Iterate on the schema redesign to see how to split without duplication the configuration description into different subsets, eg. interfaces vs. IP |
| | 235 | |
| | 236 | Actions |
| | 237 | * Evaluate NetworkManager and its usability by Quattor |
| | 238 | * Dimitris |
| | 239 | * Evaluate state of current rewrite and if it is possible to use it as a basis for next generation component |
| | 240 | * Nathan |
| | 241 | * Schema discussions/improvements |
| | 242 | * First decide on what are the future components for network configuration |
