missing vlan pkg in cobbler-node manifest

[Daneyon Hansen]

The vlan package is missing from the cobbler node manifest:

packages => "openssh-server vim lvm2 ntp puppet",

This used to be included and is now missing. Our default packages need to support VLAN network segmentation.

I recall asking Edgar if this was intentional in the review when it was submitted. He said it was, but I don't recall why. Edgar, can you comment?

Either way, this is trivial to fix....a one-liner.

This will add back the vlan package unless Edgar has a reason why we shouldn't:

It's gone because vlan0.40 has gone in the late_command.

It's not obvious why the vlan package is required for anything else - is it used by Openstack?

[Daneyon Hansen (danehans)]

Even if Cobbler is not configuring the VLAN interface through late commands, we need to keep the package. When we get past the basic multi-node deployment model, we will need to support multiple interfaces per node. Little-to-no customers will deploy a production environment using a single network for all OpenStack traffic. I plan on updating my puppet-networking module (https://github.com/danehans/puppet-networking) for Folsom, so we can support multi-interface deployments after we get the baseline deployment model fully functional. I can update my module to install the vlan package, if keeping the vlan package is an issue.

Fixed here after some discussion: https://github.com/CiscoSystems/folsom-manifests/pull/9
