Hi Xiao, Yes this is a diskfull installation. I will take a look at the syslog tomorrow when I am back in the office to see if I see anything that could be helpful that I may have missed.
Given that the node can install fine when being set to one profile, but not another, what other things outside of DNS and iptables could cause the management node to not be able to receive (or reply) to the flag my node is apparently failing to send? 2011/12/8 Xiao Peng Wang <[email protected]> > updateflag.awk is used to send a request to xcatd to indicate that > installation/netboot has been finished. > > The 'updateflag.awk MN 3002' will be called for diskfull installation and > 'updateflag.awk $MASTER 3002 "installstatus booted"' should be for the > diskless boot.
