Adding computer hosts

[Evelio Quiros <ev...@fiu.edu>]

Hello,

What do I need in dhcpd.conf when I am adding VM computers to manage?
I put in a range of MAC addresses in the web interface, do I need to put those MACs in the dhcpd.conf file ?

Thanks.

You need to add definitions for each VM.  If you used the "Add
Multiple" computers option, you should have been presented with the
correct dhcpd.conf contents which you could copy/paste after the
computers were added.  You can still add the entries manually.  The
following page has an example of a dhcpd.conf file:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/VCL/Configuring+a+Standalone+VCL+Environment+using+VMware+Server+2.0

You should be able to copy/paste, then alter the hostnames, MACs, IP addresses.
