For KVM virtual machine, the default booting order is: network:harddisk. And xCAT does not support to config the boot order for kvm. So that means the rsetboot does not work for kvm and you don't need to do that.
ThanksBest Regards
James,
If you are trying to boot a VM, there is no need to use "rsetboot".
Use "rinstall" command instead. It will do "nodeset", "rsetboot" (if
needed) and "rpower" for you.

Hi there,
Thanks for your quick reply - I tried that definition:
root@xcat1:~# chdef cn01 mgt=kvm
1 object definitions have been created or modified.
root@xcat1:~# tabdump nodehm
#node,power,mgt,cons,termserver,termport,conserver,serialport,serialspeed,serialflow,getmac,cmdmapping,consoleondeman
u need to define mgt in the node definition. use
chdef cn01 mgt=kvm
Thanks,
Casandra

Hi all,
I am in the process of setting up xCAT to deploy some Ubuntu hosts -
right now I am testing in a VMware ESXi environment with PXE boot
enabled, but once I've got things working this will be rolled out beyond
this.
I have deployed xCAT on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS using "go-xcat" - no errors
