Is installnic/primarynic correct?
installnic => 'The network adapter on the node that will be used for OS
deployment, the installnic can be set to the network adapter name or the mac
address or the keyword "mac" which means that the network interface specified
by the mac address in the mac table will be used. If not set, primarynic will
be used.',
primarynic => 'The network adapter on the node that will be used for xCAT
management, the primarynic can be set to the network adapter name or the mac

Objet : Re: [xcat-user] xCAT - Node reboot problem
I will warn you we did not test or support redhat6.5 until our next release
xCAT 2.8.4. You say you have working nodes with the same OS and xCAT level
though.
Could you give us lsdef boot2 and a tabdump site.
Is this a new installation? Might check the setup with this doc, it is good
for all x-series installations.

Subject: [xcat-user] xCAT - Node reboot problem
________________________________
Hello all,
After a node has been reinstalled, it won't boot its OS.
The installation works well and once it has to reboot, I can see on the remote
console (BMC) that it's kind of stuck on this message:
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/AC1E0002 OK
Booting from local disk…
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel Boot Agent.
I can see in the nodelist table that the status of this node is "failed" :
tabdump nodelist
#node,groups,status,statustime,appstatus,appstatustime,primarysn,hidden,updatestatus,updatestatustime,comments,disable
"b002","all,worker,ipmi","failed","05-15-2014
09:31:22",,,,,"synced","05-14-2014 16:27:49",,
"b002bmc","bmc",,,,,,,,,,
The /var/log/httpd/error_log on the MN gives me that error:
[Wed May 14 16:33:57 2014] [error] [client 172.30.0.2] File does not exist:
/tftpboot/mypostscripts/mypostscript.b002
[Wed May 14 16:33:57 2014] [error] [client 172.30.0.2] File does not exist:
/install/rhels6.5/x86_64/images/updates.img
The first error has been cleared by adding the following option:
chdef -t site -o clustersite precreatemypostscripts=1
Which gave me a kickstart-like file in /tftpboot/mypostscripts.
(I don't know if that was important but at least I don't have anymore the error
message.)
Regarding the second error, I checked on our other clusters with the same xCAT
version and OS, but this file doesn't exist and this error message neither.
The funny thing is if I force the next reboot on the HD, the node boots the OS
normally (rsetboot b002 hd).
So my only clues are this error message and the state of the node written in
the nodelist table.
I cannot find any log files
To me, the /var/log/messages on the MN seems normal:

Here are some details about my configurations:
The node (b002) and the management node are a Dell C6220 .

OS: RHEL 6.5
xCAT: Version 2.8.3 (built Tue Nov 12 23:16:15 EST 2013)
This is a Management Node

xCAT tables:

nodetype

Any ideas?
Thanks.
