We want to test that config writings from YaST produces certain conflicts. The implementation as now, contains a couple of yast modules that uses the 70-yast.conf. Some of them that we can use for automation during the installation is - net.ipv4.ip_forward - net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies These settings are available in the yast2 network module. Scope is limited to 64bit on SLES only for the start. Potential Possible Scenario: 1. Check that module writes modify settings properly in /etc/sysctl.d/70-yast.conf and not in /etc/sysctl.conf (using yast2 lan module with settings mentioned above) 'manual' 2. Set conflicting Edit network settings in /etc/sysctl.conf, edit them in yast module verify that yast module reports it from step 1 on YaST 3. Verify conflict is happening 3. Set conflicting setting in custom file, e.g. /etc/sysctl.d/90-custom.conf , edit them in yast module verify that yast module reports it check /etc/sysctl.d/70-yast.conf for variables and values See Also https://jira.suse.com/browse/SLE-9077 and https://jira.suse.com/browse/SLE-9088 Feature discussion: https://trello.com/c/uf4RFeC1/3671-sysctld-handling-display-current-settings-and-warn-about-conflicts Also see https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/61073#note-13 ## Acceptance criteria 1. in case of conflict all the settings are discarded
