Hi Arif,
thank you for your quick answer.

Hi Laurent,
You may have missed running either of the commands below
nodeset newton-f-01 osimage
# nodeset newton-f-01 osimage
newton-f-01: Error: Unable to identify plugin for this command, check
relevant tables: noderes.netboot=(grub2[-]?.*);nodehm.mgt
or
$ rinstall newton-f-01
newton-f-01: Unable to identify plugin for this command, check relevant
tables: noderes.netboot
Error: nodeset failed on certain nodes.
newton-f-01: Network
newton-f-01: reset
As suggested I check the two tables :
$ tabdump noderes
#node,servicenode,netboot,tftpserver,tftpdir,nfsserver,monserver,nfsdir,installnic,primarynic,discoverynics,cmdinterface,xcatmaster,current_osimage,next_osimage,nimserver,routenames,nameservers,proxydhcp,comments,disable
"newton-f-01",,"xbna",,,,,,,"eth0",,,,,,,,,,,
"newton-f-02",,"xbna",,,,,,,"eth0",,,,,,,,,,,
and
$ tabdump nodehm
#node,power,mgt,cons,termserver,termport,conserver,serialport,serialspeed,serialflow,getmac,cmdmapping,consoleondemand,comments,disable
"newton-f-01",,"ipmi",,,,,,,,,,,,
"newton-f-02",,"ipmi",,,,,,,,,,,,
But I don't see what is incorrectly configured.
Regards,
Laurent
or
rinstall newton-f-01
The commands above will configure the relevant tftp/dhcp etc... to get
the server to get the relevant configs
rinstall will also reset the machine for you as well, as well as
setting the node to boot of the network
regards,
Arif

Dear xcat-users,
I am new to xCAT and I encounter a problem when I try to deploy the
nodes.
Basically, the installer does not start.
Here's my setup:
- a virtual machine bridged on the management network that hosts xCAT
2.11
- 48 Dell compute nodes connected to the management network
- a iDRAC service network configured to be used through IPMI
I used the following documentation
http://sourceforge.net/p/xcat/wiki/XCAT_iDataPlex_Cluster_Quick_Start/
I have manually declared my nodes (knowing MAC address of management
interface) and run the network tools to update the configuration
(makehosts, makedns, makedhcp, makentp).
I created an system image using
copycds -n centos7 CentOS-7-x86_64-Everything-1511.iso
and my nodes are configured to use it.
I am able to get/set node status via BMC
$ rpower newton-f-01 state
newton-f-01: on
$ rsetboot newton-f-01 net
newton-f-01: Network
When I power up the nodes, I can follow via the console the
deployment and it acquires the correct IP address,
retrieve the genesis operating system but installation does not start.
$ nodestat newton-f-01
newton-f-01: sshd
I can connect to the node via SSH.
$ ssh root@newton-f-01
[xCAT Genesis running on newton-f-01 /]# uname -r
2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64
or xdsh:
$ xdsh fat date
newton-f-01: Wed Feb 10 10:33:36 UTC 2016
newton-f-02: Wed Feb 10 10:33:36 UTC 2016
I probably missed a step to tell the Genesis operating system to
launch the install but I haven't found how to do it.
Below follow some configuration informations.
*xCAT version*
$ lsxcatd -a
Version 2.11 (git commit 9ea36ca6163392bf9ab684830217f017193815be,
built Mon Nov 30 05:43:11 EST 2015)
This is a Management Node

Thanks in advance if you can give me a solution or a pointer to a
link that explains how to solve that.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Best regards,
