Steve, What we’ve usually done when we need these types of packages is to use yumdownloader on the management node. We figure out all the packages we’ll need, including dependencies, and with the proper repo configured on the management node call yum downloader for each package. Keep them all in one otherpkgs directory and each time we add or remove packages just re-run createrepo on that otherpkgs directory. Then just use “otherpkgs” as described in the xCAT documentation.
