For file paths, cobbler will copy the kickstarts and serve them up as http -- so having servable kickstart paths as parameters to "cobbler profile add" is not required. In fact, it's probably a good idea to leave the kickstarts as absolute paths to avoid having yet another resource to manage. For Xen parameters, koan may interpret some parameters as hints, not absolutes, if it has to resolve conflicts. All of these Xen parameters are optional, though as many as possible should be specified to avoid the risk koan making it's own decisions when run on the target dom0. See the documentation for koan for more details. |
