If we use the Live cd method and configuring the data ip using nmcli or nmtui, the iscsi h/w initiator ip is up and able to see the devices and able to install however, when we reboot and the first reboot stage, the data network on eno6 is not getting ip from CoreOS --copy-network.  hence we are getting timeout error for api-int.

fairly

1. configure ucs profile for ucsB200-M6    

2. create ISO - coreos-installer iso customize --network-keyfile eno6.nmconnection --live-karg-append ip=ibft --live-karg-append rd.iscsi.firmware=1 --live-karg-append rd.multipath=default --dest-karg-append  rd.net.timeout.carrier=60  --dest-karg-append rd.neednet=1   --dest-ignition worker.ign --dest-karg-append rd.iscsi.firmware=1 --dest-karg-append rd.multipath=defaul --dest-device /dev/mapper/3600a098038314576332b52336a325936 --dest-karg-append ip=ibft -o icon-416.iso rhcos-416.94.202501270445-0-live.x86_64.iso

3. reboot - the data network on eno6 is not getting ip from CoreOS --copy-network.     

System does not see iscsi disks or get ip

iscsi boot and drop into OS   

    we used below procedure to create a iso for coreOS install:
coreos-installer iso customize --network-keyfile eno6.nmconnection --live-karg-append ip=ibft --live-karg-append rd.iscsi.firmware=1 --live-karg-append rd.multipath=default --dest-karg-append  rd.net.timeout.carrier=60  --dest-karg-append rd.neednet=1   --dest-ignition worker.ign --dest-karg-append rd.iscsi.firmware=1 --dest-karg-append rd.multipath=defaul --dest-device /dev/mapper/3600a098038314576332b52336a325936 --dest-karg-append ip=ibft -o icon-416.iso rhcos-416.94.202501270445-0-live.x86_64.iso

the eno6 ip assigned at the time of boot, however the iscsi is not getting its ip from h/w iscsi which is configured by ucs profile.. the h/w is: ucsB200-M6
hence it could not see any disk. screenshot attached
