Here is how you work with NetReg.
Contents
Register the machine in NetReg.
Login in as cl0x.
Netreg machine name with cl0x and an empty MAC to get an IP. Then use the IP to update that record with the correct MAC.
note IP address => MAC function
- just encode the IP in hex as the MAC address ok, there will never be Cray ethernet hardware in B6
Once the machine is registered, NetReg will take you to the machine's main page.
Click the "View Advanced Options" link.
Scroll down to the "DHCP Options" section and click the "Add DHCP Option" link.
Use this to add two options:
filename
"/netinstall-wheezy/debian-installer/amd64/pxelinux.0"
next-server
storage-2.club.cc.cmu.edu
Wait for the change to propagate to the Andrew DHCP servers. NetReg will tell you when the next DHCP server update happens on the signout page.
