2.8.1 comes out mid-May. Unfortunately you will fail on the install, if you do not use the lastest deps packages because of a missing dependency in RHEL5 for perl-Compress-* which is now used in the xcatd.
If it is x86_64 you are interested in , you must install the latest xCAT deps package, which now has the perl-Compress package for RHEL5 x86_64 in it from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/xcat/files/xcat-dep/2.x_Linux/xcat-dep-201303290945.tar.bz2/download and then I believe you will be able to install 2.8.0 successfully. If you are on ppc64, we do not have the package available and you would actually need the changes in xcatd that are in 2.8.1 to install and start xcatd. Lissa K. Valletta 8-3/B10 Poughkeepsie, NY 12601 (tie 293) 433-3102 From: Antoine Tabary <[email protected]> To: xCAT Users Mailing list <[email protected]> Date: 04/24/2013 06:48 AM Subject: [xcat-user] xcat 2.8.1 Hello, I just saw in the release notes that RHEL 5 users should wait for xCAT 2.8.1. This leads to the following questions : 1/ Is there a targeted date for release of xCAT 2.8.1 ? 2/ Does the limitation for RHEL5 concern a specific part of xCAT ? I only need to do disk installs and have no service nodes. Thank you for your help.
