From 3bc94c896f660e7932d732988f16dc2916fcc1d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mohammed Gamal Date: Fri, 29 Jul 2022 13:07:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] redhat: Use NetworkManager to set DHCP hostnames on recent RHEL distros RH-Author: Mohamed Gamal Morsy RH-MergeRequest: 13: redhat: Use NetworkManager to set DHCP hostnames on recent RHEL distros RH-Bugzilla: 2133446 RH-Acked-by: Miroslav Rezanina RH-Commit: [1/1] 673e76149dd1f2fb4e23823844ed294fdbbecb1a Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2133446 Recent versions of RHEL 8 and RHEL 9 started using NetworkManager to configure network intefaces instead of sysconfig files. Configurations are no longer stored in /etc/sysconfig/ifcfg-{interface}. Fix this for setting DHCP hostnames in those RHEL versions.
