Make sure the vmnics attribute for the clone target node has been set with the required nics.

The template that I'm cloning has complex customizations that I do not want to reimplement via kickstart/postscripts. This is why I'm doing the clone. Once the clone is done, though, I am having trouble discovering the node in xcat if I don't know the IP address or mac address of the new VM. I figured if I could get the mac address set, that would be enough to set the IP as xcat controls dhcp. Perhaps I am going about this the wrong way? How would one typically manage nodes that have been cloned via xcat?

If you want to use xCAT script deployment for the target node OS install, why not just copy the definition of vm and run 'mkvm' to create a new one?

My problem is I am running a clonevm, however, once the vm is clone there is no mac set in the node definition so makedhcp fails.
