Russell,
Can you comment out line 106 "return 1" from
/opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT_plugin/syncfiles.pm and try again? Please restart
xcatd.
Thanks,

Subject: [xcat-user] xCAT 2.9 Syncfiles error
xCAT 2.9
Hi all,
I have a centos 6.6 image with the following contents in the synclist file
for the osimage:
/install/custom/v6.6.0-dl-compute-apu/sync/etc/modprobe.d/lustre.conf ->
/etc/modprobe.d/lustre.conf
APPEND:
/install/custom/v6.6.0-dl-compute-apu/sync/etc/fstab -> /etc/fstab
When my compute nodes boot up and execute the script it takes a couple of
minutes, which seems way too long for syncing 2 text files. I get a
"syncfiles exited with code 0" in the xcat.log file on the node, while in
/var/log/messages on the management node I get:
Jan 27 16:07:57 evxcat xCAT[27685]: xCAT: Allowing syncfiles from n0
Jan 27 16:08:09 evxcat xCAT[27753]: xCAT: Allowing syncfiles from n0
Jan 27 16:08:24 evxcat xCAT[27805]: xCAT: Allowing syncfiles from n0
Jan 27 16:08:45 evxcat xCAT[27858]: xCAT: Allowing syncfiles from n0
Jan 27 16:09:00 evxcat xCAT[27909]: xCAT: Allowing syncfiles from n0
Jan 27 16:09:16 evxcat xCAT[27960]: xCAT: Allowing syncfiles from n0
Jan 27 22:09:18 n0 xCAT: ./syncfiles: Perform Syncing File action
encountered error
Looking at the end result the files are synced fine, and my /etc/fstab is
appended properly.
So it seems like the Syncfiles script can't seem to make up its mind if it
exited with an error or not (code 0 usually = good!).
Any ideas what the issue could be?
