This short article explains how to easily disable DHCP on a CSN. This may be useful when transitioning from a CSN deployment to an SCS deployment while allowing both system to co-exist on the same private network. This would normally be problematic as both system would intercept DHCP requests in the PXE boot process.

\uD83D\uDCD8 Instructions

  1. SSH as root user to the CSN

  2. Edit /etc/monit.conf and comment out the include line 246 so that it looks like this:

    #include /etc/monit.d/*
  3. Restart monit

    service monit restart
  4. Shut off DHCP

    service dhcpd stop
  5. Verify DHCP is no longer running. Wait about a minute just to make sure that monit is not bringing DHCP back up.

    # service dhcpd status
    dhcpd is stopped
  6. Revert that change if/ when necessary.
