ztpgenerator's Issues

`dhcpd_restart_command` subprocess results in errors

When I run ztpgenerator.py device_data.csv, it is now giving me the following errors:

cp: cannot stat '/etc/dhcp/hosts.conf': No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove '/etc/dhcp/hosts.conf': No such file or directory

Generating device and dhcpd config files...

Job for isc-dhcp-server.service failed.
See "systemctl status isc-dhcp-server.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
Job for isc-dhcp-server.service failed.

Done generating config files...

Running HTTP Server...
Press "Ctrl+C" in console to close HTTP server.
^C

I do not understand the cp and rm outputs, as the /etc/dhcp/hosts.conf file does exist...

root@junos-ztp:~/ztpgenerator# ls -l /etc/dhcp/hosts.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3129 Jan 16 20:16 /etc/dhcp/hosts.conf

Also, as for the restart of the isc-dhcp-server service, journalctl shows the service restart failing with "Start request repeated too quickly":

root@junos-ztp:~/ztpgenerator# journalctl -xe -u isc-dhcp-server
-- Unit isc-dhcp-server.service has finished shutting down.
Jan 16 20:16:04 junos-ztp systemd[1]: isc-dhcp-server.service: Start request repeated too quickly.

-- Defined-By: systemd

-- Unit isc-dhcp-server.service has failed.

-- The result is RESULT.

However, if I start the service by hand (systemctl start isc-dhcp-service) it starts correctly and then is running.

Ever see anything like this?

Where does one put the Junos installer tarballs?

I see that the rendered configs get put in the configs dir; does one put the Junos installer tarballs there as well, or do you intend they get served from another web server somewhere?

Remove extra "}" char in .format replacement field
