Your old xcatd is probably still running. Do a "service xcatd stop",
then "ps aux | grep xcat" and kill any process still running. Then start
xcatd back up and see what you get.

At this point things still work, but I am most confused about lsxcatd
still returning 2.7.3 to me. Maybe it is getting that as a string from
a database table that hasn't been updated yet instead of directly from
the xcatd binary? I have some of the new commands like
"nodediscoverls" and "nodediscoverstart" which weren't there before so
I'm pretty sure everything was upgraded.
I did a "yum update xcat" and for good measure "yum install
xCAT-nbkernel-x86_64 xCAT-genesis-x86_64 xCAT-client
xCAT-nbroot-core-x86_64 xCAT-server xCAT-nbroot-oss-x86_64". As long
as nothing is operating incorrectly though I guess I can just presume
everything is at the latest version.

Did you remember to stop the xcatd service before doing the upgrade?

I seem to be getting myself in all kinds of trouble with xCAT
lately.
I was upgrading from xCAT 2.7.3 to 2.8.3, I grabbed the latest
core and dep tarballs, and made local yum repos, and installed
all the newer packages from them. Then to check if the daemon had
been upgraded I did an 'lsxcatd -v' and it still said 2.7.3. So I
decided to run the xcat daemon manually from the command line
with the verbose flag but wasn't expecting to see the schema
updates (honestly all I saw were SQL commands scrolling in the
screen - I didn't know they were for the schema at the time) and
I panicked and hit CRTL+C. This halted the daemon & updates but
the next time I tried to run it I got an error although the
daemon ran in the background. This is from my terminal:

Unrecognized escape \h passed through at
/opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT/zvmUtils.pm line 2408.
Despite this I can still use 'service xcatd restart' and start
the daemon, and I can run psh commands and tabdump etcetera, but
now I'm unsure whether the xCAT MySQL database is in an
inconsistent state and has not received all the schema updates it
was supposed to. I was hoping that by running xcatd -v again I
would see it try again but I haven't.
And even after all that I still see 2.7.3 when I type 'lsxcatd'.
Maybe I need to restart the node.
Any clue if there is a way to rerun the schema changes?
Thanks,
Josh Nielsen
