[Spacewalk-list] Xen provisioning lacks vif

[Matt Carey]

I've setup Spacewalk to provision Xen guests on a host and when the VM is getting created it lacks a virtual network interface in the configuration file, so
the guest can't talk to the Spacewalk server via the network to get the channel contents or ks file. Shouldn't the "vif=XXXX" line in the /etc/xen/<guest name> VM configuration file be injected via Spacewalk?

Extra info if it helps:
