Hi together, at the moment my installation workflow is the following. I am adding new systems with all information (nics, ips etc.) via cobbler cli. And i have found out how I can use the cobbler variables in my autoinstall profile. Which is fine for systems with equal specs. Now I am facing the following situation. I have quite equal systems with a different number of network interfaces. In the cobbler vars is this nice interfaces object. Is there any way like a for-loop or some scripting language that i can use in the autoinstallation profile? In pure cobbler installation and in kickstarts it was possible i think. Regards, Matthias ---

It’s also possible with AutoYaST. See [https://wiki.microfocus.com/index.php/SUSE\_Manager/NewFeatures2.1/AutoinstallationTemplates](https://wiki.microfocus.com/index.php/SUSE_Manager/NewFeatures2.1/AutoinstallationTemplates) and [https://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7015474](https://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=7015474) about special requirements in a SUSE Manager context.
