xcatdebug is mostly used for xCAT development.

Do you remember if you were on 2.8.X  before or 2.7.X or an even earlier
version of xCAT.
Could you give us the following output, when you have put it back to where
it was working before.

lsdef bc2a1
lsdef bc2a2

tabdump passwd
tabdump mpa

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.
Right, I didn't change anything for blades.
Here is what happening:
there are two BladeCenter chassis, configured identically except of course
name, IP address AND user's password,
say, bc2a1 and bc2a2. Password for bc2a1 is in passwd table (as default, in
"blade" line), password for bc2a2 is in mpa table.
r-commands (rscan, rinv, rpower, etc.) work fine for bc2a1, but don't for
bc2a2 resulting in message "Authentication failure (incorrect password,
community or key)". Changing line in passwd table with password for bc2a2
makes r-command work, but obviously they stop working for bc2a1.
Sorry, I don't remember the exact version of xCAT this setup was working...
Probably it just misconfiguration..
Can you suggest how I could troubleshot this? Unfortunately "xcatdebug -f
enable" produces a huge file when just executing "rscan" command, do you
know how I can narrow it down for this particular case?

Thanks for your time,
Regards,
Michael

  No, we did not make any change in the usage of mpa table.

  Show me more of your issue. You did not change any thing for your blade
  node after xcat update, right? If you did , check the changes.

  Thanks
  Best Regards

  Hello All,

  Sorry to bother, but I was wondering if mpa table handling has changed
  from previous versions of xCAT?
  According to documentation, if there is an entry in mpa table, that's
  what is used instead of default settings in passwd table. And that worked
  fine a couple of versions back of xCAT on mixture of BladeCenter
  Management Modules with different userid/passwords.
  In version 2.8.5 it doesn't for some reason. Is it something related to
  format (new?) of passwd, mp, mpa tables and what was just misconfigured?
  Or something else?

  Would appreciate any insights on this.

  Thank you in advance,
  Regards,
  Michael
