Hey Steve,
I've not used 2.7 yet but 2.6 has an atftp that is installed from xcat's
repos.
Mine is: atftp-xcat-0.7-10.x86_64
And it installs itself as a separate service: /etc/init.d/tftpd
chkconfig tftpd on
may fix your issue on boot and of course:
/sbin/service tftpd start
would probably fix it on a booted system.

Hey all,
I'm setting up a fresh install of xcat 2.7.3. Everything was
going okay, right up until I booted my test node. It wasn't able to
fetch the image via tftp. A little investigation revealed tftp wasn't
actually running:
# ps ax | grep tftp
10530 pts/1 S+ 0:00 grep tftp
Here's what I see when restarting xcatd:
# service xcatd restart
Restarting xCATd Stopping xCATd [ OK ]
in.tftpd: no process killed
/usr/sbin/in.tftpd: invalid option -- 'l'
[ OK ]

An old thread I found suggested I might be running the wrong tftp
server. However, when I tried removing atftp, yum told me that xcat
depended on it. Barring confirmation from someone more knowledgeable
than I that I should try that, messing with it seems ill-advised.
So: Does anyone know what is wrong here? Any suggestions for fixing it?
Thank you very much,
Steve
