Well, genimage seems to pick up my change just fine - it's just
updatenode that doesn't. Here's the temp yum.conf that is created
during otherpkgs time with genimage:
[otherpkgs1]
name=otherpkgs1
baseurl=file:///install/post/otherpkgs/centos5.4-new-kernel/x86_64/v5.4.8-dl-compute//.
gpgpcheck=0
[otherpkgs2]
name=otherpkgs2
baseurl=file:///install/post/otherpkgs/centos5.4-new-kernel/x86_64/v5.4.8-dl-compute//dell
gpgpcheck=0
We are wanting to separate out the otherpkgs based on image name.
Being able to configure otherpkgdir is a good feature that seems to
work fine during genimage time - I would highly encourage you guys
continue with this feature and push it to the otherpkgs postscript.

Take a look at this documentation
, the otherpkgdir always ends with the architecture directory
and then the directories under that contain the rpms. I have
never seen anything different so this may be a limitation in our
code.
In other words in your case it
should be otherpkgdir=/install/post/otherpkgs/centos5.4-new-kernel/x86_64

Subject: [xcat-user] xCAT ignoring my
otherpkgdir setting
Hi all,
I am manually setting my otherpkgdir for an osimage that a node
belongs to. However when running "updatenode $node -S", the
setting is being ignored. The problem is bolded below.
Example is below, how do I get this thing to look at the right
path?
[root@master v5.4.8-dl-compute]# chdef -t osimage
v5.4.8-dl-compute
otherpkgdir=/install/post/otherpkgs/centos5.4-new-kernel/x86_64/v5.4.8-dl-compute/
