I'm installing xcat in a cluster 1350 of IBM 
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/xcat/index.php?title=XCAT_iDataPlex_Cluster_Quick_Start,
 but in the discovering of nodes (currently I'm testing with a simple node) I 
have several problems:

 * The IP i put in the chtab is different to the assignated on the DHCP. Eg, 
the node should get 10.22.1.2, it gets 10.22.1.76 :

    May 16 12:31:14 ojancano dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 34:40:b5:b8:73:4c via eth1
    May 16 12:31:15 ojancano dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.22.1.76 to 
34:40:b5:b8:73:4c via eth1


 * After dhcp load of kernel in the node, the node remains writing the errors 
cat: can't open '/tmp/dhcpserver': No such file or directory and grep: 
/tmp/destiny: No such file or directory

 * The BMCsetup don't set the MAC of node definition (the manual says it should 
set the bmc password, the mac address of the node which gotten by discovery, 
the hardware type and the hardware serial number)

Anyone have a hint of the solution? Thanks.

I'm using the same templates of xcat e1350, but changing the IP ranges.

The configuration of nodes:

# lsdef node2
Object name: node2
    bmc=bmc2
    chain=runcmd=bmcsetup,standby
    groups=ipmi,idataplex,compute,all
    ip=10.22.1.2
    mgt=ipmi
    netboot=xnba
    ondiscover=nodediscover
    postbootscripts=otherpkgs
    postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles
    profile=compute
    rack=1
    switch=switch1
    switchport=1/2
    unit=A2

# lsdef bmc2
Object name: bmc2
    groups=idataplex-bmc
    ip=10.22.101.2
    postbootscripts=otherpkgs
    postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles

# lsdef switch1
Object name: switch1
    groups=switch
    ip=10.22.0.101
    postbootscripts=otherpkgs
    postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles


I have several G8052 switches, and I try to set the switchport to different 
values (1/2, Ethernet2, 2) but it didn't change anything

Thanks a lot,
Luis Cabellos
