Hi,

Here the packages installed
# rpm -qa | grep -i xCAT-genesis
xCAT-genesis-base-x86_64-2.8-snap201404300240.noarch
xCAT-genesis-scripts-x86_64-2.8.4-snap201405120509.noarch

Indeed the command mknb x86_64 has solved the problem

Thank you very much for your help

HI,

Could you please check the version of xCAT-genesis-scripts and xCAT-genesis-base? the build date of these packages should be later than 20140426.

[root@ls21n01 ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i xCAT-genesis
xCAT-genesis-scripts-x86_64-2.9-snap201406021344.noarch
xCAT-genesis-base-x86_64-2.8-snap201404300240.noarch
[root@ls21n01 ~]#

Also, the latest code has been updated to use ntpq -c "rv 0 offset" in /opt/xcat/share/xcat/netboot/genesis/x86_64/fs/bin/doxcat.

[root@ls21n01 ~]# cat /opt/xcat/share/xcat/netboot/genesis/x86_64/fs/bin/doxcat | grep ntpq #(while ! ntpq -c "rv 0 state"|grep 'state=4' > /dev/null; do sleep 1; done; hwclock --systohc) & (while [ "`ntpq -c \"rv 0 offset\" | grep \"offset=\" | awk -F \"=\" '{print $2}' | awk -F \".\" '{print $1}' | sed s/-//`" -ge 1000 ]; do sleep 1; done; hwclock --systohc) &
[root@ls21n01 ~]#

The command mknb x86_64 will make sure the genesis initrd is updated with the latest code.

Subject: [xcat-user] "a request variable unknown to the server" during pxe install
------------------------------------------------------------------------



Hello,

I'm installing a cluster with xcat using a sysclone image.
When a node boots in pxe, the following message is displayed again and
again until the end of the installation

        "a request variable unknown to the server"

I saw the link http://sourceforge.net/p/xcat/bugs/4139/#91ba, but I' use
the xcat 2.8.4 (the file doxcat is modified) and I have the same problem.

The installation seems to be ok, when I reboot, my node is operational,
But I can't see the installation progress.

Thanks in advance
