I think the problem is the nodetype=mp, that is not valid.
chdef bc2a1 nodetype=mm
chdef bc2a2 nodetype=mm
Then when you lsdef bc2a1, you should see the password and username
displayed. Right now they are not being displayed
For example:
lsdef compute2
Object name: compute2
groups=mygroup2
hwtype=mm
id=0
mgt=blade
nodetype=mm
password=password1
postbootscripts=otherpkgs
postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles
username=user1

I'm afraid it was before 2.7.x... Would it be a problem?
Currently (on 2.8.5) outputs are:
lsdef bc2a1
Object name: bc2a1
groups=mm,all
hwtype=mm
id=0
mgt=blade
mpa=bc2a1
nodetype=mp
postbootscripts=otherpkgs
postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles
lsdef bc2a2
Object name: bc2a2
groups=mm,all
hwtype=mm
id=0
mgt=blade
mpa=bc2a2
nodetype=mp
postbootscripts=otherpkgs
postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles
passwd:
....
"blade","adminuser","<one-password>",,,,
....
mpa:
...
"bc2a2","adminuser","<another-password>",,,,,
....
Thanks for looking into this.
Regards,
Michael

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

Subject: [xcat-user] mpa table handling in xCAT 2.8.5
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
