There have been reports of this in various discussion groups, one suggestion is
to plug in a mouse and move it around to help the kernel gather enough entropy
for the random number generator. Another suggestion on the rhel support site
(beyond wait for the fix in rhel8.3) is to add random.trust_
The node is diskless so the postscripts must run on every boot. It looks like
it got a lot of the files but the last directory it was working on was “repos”.
Maybe there is a permission problem with a file that got dropped in that area
in the last week or so.

Is your resolv.conf set up with a domain directive or a search directive? New
nodes should get their resolv.conf configured automatically but if you have
only just now made the change on your management node it may not reconfigure
the resolver for you.

I’m having trouble finding out how to use either ipmitool or openbmc tools to
manage power and console for a new IBM powerpc GPU node. Existing cluster is
running the latest update of xcat. Can’t find openbmc executable or the
openbmctool package download referred to in the ibm documentation.
I’ve been asked to use non-vendor-default passwords, where would I specify this?

We’ve kept parallel clusters on the same network for nearly a year now while
transitioning to RH7 from CentOS 6.
Initially copied the hosts and nodelist and MAC tables into the new xcat
database. Carefully controlled use of makedhcp so that nodes moving to the new
cluster were first added to n
After we had some (let’s say self inflicted)?issues with dhcp, I added hardeths
to the list of postscripts. Still would want to know why dhcp is failing.

Yes, I recall someone having trouble that went away when they turned off
hardware flow control on the serial console. If you have 115200nr or 38400nr
change it to get rid of the “r”.

So a quick question is how long is never? I had a similar situation today and
the setupntp script was taking a really long time but finally gave up. The
problem for me was that chronyd was not configured on the management node to
respond on any network interfaces. Chronyd has replaced ntpd on r
In this case it was because the old cluster had a copy of the centos 7.3 iso
which was called for in the directions, and I used nfs mount to copy it. Just
forgot to unmount it afterwards. I maybe could have said -o ro or used scp, but
nfs is the most convenient.
I had originally hoped to manag
Do you have serial console on ttyS1 at 115200 baud with no flow control?
The dell servers I have used use second serial port for console, rather than
ttyS0 that most IBM Lenovo servers use.

I used Kilian's workaround. It is working fine so far.

No, but Legacy Only might be an issue

Could you share the IMM and Boot sections from asu show on one of your
troublesome nodes?

I tried removing all exclude lines, install was bigger, but the problem did not
go away. Also similar issue with constant messages from pulseaudio failed to
load module and dbus daemon launch helper showing up in /var/log/messages. I

We are seeing issues with a system booted diskless with the basic-desktop,
gnome-desktop and desktop-platform groups added to the pkglist. The problem
does not occur if I add these package groups after the system is booted. I
believe it is due to not having a populated /etc/group file during the
