Hi, Jeff:
for the diskless netboot image, there is no template attribute for the
osimage. But it should created /tftpboot/xcat/xnba files, after ran
nodeset command.
the correct steps should be:
1) change netboot=xnba for cn0
2) rmimage centos netboot image
3) genimage centos netboot image
4) packimage centos netboot image
5) nodeset cn0 osimage=<centos netboot image>
6) boot up cn0
Thanks,
Casandra

Generally, two possible reasons: OS has problem, hardware has problem.
Could you try to install rh7 on the same hardware?
Casandra, could you try the centos7.1 in xcat local env?

well, I am not sure what is the problem to cause ""no space on device"
issue.
I just want to narrow down the problem with you to find the root cause.
after ran nodeset, there are files should be created under
the /tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes, like cn0.uefi, cn0.elilo and cn.
I am not sure why your system didn't have those files. maybe tftpdir on
the site table had different dir? you can check it with "tabdump site |
grep tftpdir"
also, on your image, there is a attribute called template:
template=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/centos/compute.centos7.tmpl
you can try to modify this file to fit your needs for the filesystem.
Thanks,
Casandra

Do u have those two rpms installed on the MN?
xnba-undi-1.0.3-131028.noarch

Yes:
[root@xcat-p1n01 ~]# rpm -q xnba-undi

[root@xcat-p1n01 ~]# rpm -q elilo-xcat
elilo-xcat-3.14-4.noarch
from the node definiton, the mac address should be like:
mac=00:50:56:a5:39:74
Are you sure about that? Everything about the MAC seems to be correct.
Perhaps both forms (with or without ":") work.
can you change mac as above and change installnic and
primarynic=mac, then run "nodeset cn0
osimage=centos7.1-x86_64-netboot-compute" ?
To be clear, are you thinking this will solve the current problem or
something else? The current issue is that the node gets an address,
begins booting, pulls down the root image, but then dies with various "no
space on device" errors.
Thanks,
Casandra

Casandra, as I stated I don't know what XNBA is. Therefor, I

know how to get that information from xcat.

I have a working xCAT box on CentOS 7 which I am moving to another

fails with:
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/0A6E04
Could not find kernel image: xcat/nbk.x86_64
That hex is the first 3 octets of the IP, why wouldn't it be the entire

The node is "cn0". So, how do I get the node to look for 0A6E0414
instead of 0A6E04? ... or how can I make xcat work with 0A6E04?
