[SOLVED] Dynamic entry of kickstart server ip in kickstart config file

Have a primary and a backup kickstart server (CentOS 7). Want to be able to use the same kickstart config file that will dynamically pick up the kickstart server's ip address and place it in the url command so that we can have a single file that works on both servers. Anyone have an idea of how to achieve that? I would imagine it would involve using ksdevice?

Found out that this is not possible.

The pre-installation script section of Kickstart cannot manage multiple install trees or source media. This information must be included for each created Kickstart file, as the pre-installation script occurs during the second stage of the installation process.
