Dear Vatsal, The document provided at cobblerd.org is sufficient for get running Cobbler.
Here is are simple steps to install n configure Cobbler => Install your CentOS 6 system => For now you donot enable the selinux and iptables. Make sure these are disabled. => Cobbler need few extra packages to install, add EPEL repository in you system. Get the EPEL rpm here: http://epel.mirror.net.in/epel/6/i386/repoview/epel-release.html => Download the Cobbler package from here: http://www.cobblerd.org/downloads/packages.html => Now install cobbler with yum localinstall cobbler-xxxx it will also install all the dependency packages => After it installed everything, start the cobblerd daemon n run cobbler check command n check for the missing packages and configurations and fix it => Cobbler quick start guide is sufficient to configure and get running Cobbler. Follow the guide and configure Cobbler settings : http://www.cobblerd.org/manuals/quickstart/ => If you like to use the web front-end, download the cobbler-web package and install it.
Hoping this will help you.
Regards

Upstream has commited an option "always_write_dhcp_entries" for exactly this purpose.

False?
I'm actually curious about the inverse - why do some dhcp entries
persist even with netboot-enabled set to False? It's not consistent, and it seems to have something to do with whether the host is set to bonding or not.
Is there some additional dhcp templating work that can be done to
let both of us have what we want?
(I'm running 2.7.0.)
Are the interfaces in question set as "static"? Or, rather, *not* set as "static"?
Thanks, Nish

[DA] I'm pretty sure it is because the ipmi interface rely on DHCP still being there after the initial lease expires. The configuration learned from DHCP is not persisted in linux for the ipmi interfaces. You could argue that I could provision ipmi separately, but I'm hooked on cobbler and would like to keep all my provisioning in one place.

It only was merged in April of this year, so I'm not sure it's in any release.
