Re: [Xen-users] domU static IP

[Viswanath Durbha <Durbha.Viswanath@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was able to assign the IP address to domU by modifying the ifcfg-eth0 file. But I was just wondering what is this the best practice? How about environments where servers are frequently brought up and down to scale an application? Isn't it better to write down IP addresses in the configuration once and then not worry about editing ifcfg-eth0 everytime?

Please share your thoughts.

Thanks,
Viswanath
