Also I meant to ask is otherpkgs not required for the genimage process? Does genimage run otherpkgs without requiring the script be listed as a postscript? On 8/6/2013 7:21 PM, Russell Jones wrote: Okay, I will get that to you on Friday

If you could give us a copy of /xcatpost/mypostscript file on the node, I would appreciate it. There is a check in otherpkgs that should stop it from running and I want to see why it is failing. what level of xCAT are you running if [ -z "$UPDATENODE" ] || [ $UPDATENODE -ne 1 ]; then if [

We have noted this as an issue. What you need to do is take otherpkgs out of the xcatdefaults line in the postscripts table. "xcatdefaults","syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles","otherpkgs",, If you have nodes or nodegroups that do need otherpkgs, then explictly define those groups in the postscripts
