Hi,
We’ve been using cobbler here for a while, but in the web UI there’s a button that’s been bugging me. That little “Add Child” button in the profiles section.
Now I’ve been doing some reading about what this does and haven’t got a satisfactory answer. What I’m hoping it does it this:
I create a profile, let’s called it Master. Now this master profile contains the main configs for our cluster. However, we also have site specific profiles, such as location A and location B. Previously, this would be 3 separate profiles, but, can we create a master profile and then make location A and location B child profiles of Master, where location A will get all of Master’s snippets, kickstarts, configs etc?
If that’s not how it works, can someone provide me a use case of these child profiles!?
Regards,
Lee
