rinv mac *might* work. Unfortunately, that was written mostly for
BladeCenter. The rackmount case has been sufficiently less predictable and
we've been using switch based discovery mostly.

I think I understand that it is not going to work on HP nodes, either with
ipmi or hpilo (from xcat documentation on HP nodes.)
But now it doesn't work on Dell and IBM nodes either. We have xcat 2.8.4.
No matter what I tried to put in nodehm table, I get this:
[root@master ~]# getmacs node1107
no
Take a look at the /var/log/messages file in xCAT; it should have some
clues. You can look in appendix B and appendix G for details on looking
at the logs (pick either PDF, see first link below) It is probably getting
an error back from SMAPI. I tries 5 times to get a minidisk.

This is one area that I think I'll want to change in confluent. It would
have nice to have packimage override if there is a password for a node and
override if there is a password. The global nature of the passwd table
makes that difficult.
For now, what about:
# diff -u packimage.pm packimage.
