Could you give us an lsxcatd -a   to find out what level of xCAT you are
running.   Also an lsdef node001.

Subject:        [xcat-user] xCAT cluster in unknown state - can't install
            compute     nodes



Hello All,

I have "inherited" an xCAT cluster that appears to be at least partly, if
not mostly, configured.  Though, I am new to xCAT.  For instance networking
is configured and works between the master and compute nodes, rpower can
turn nodes off and on.  The compute nodes all have CentOS 4 on them and I
am trying to upgrade them to CentOS 6.  The thing I can't do is rinstall a
node.  I get output like this:

[root@mgmt01 ~]# rinstall node001
node001: Error: Unable to identify plugin for this command, check relevant
tables: nodehm.mgt;noderes.netboot
nodeset node001 failure
nodeset failure at /opt/xcat/bin/rinstall line 164.

My nodehm and noderes tables are below.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
