for this n042 node that the mac address has been discovered 'mac=0c:c4:7a:71:f6:ba' so I guess the discovery process has been done or this node was used before? If it was a an old node, please clean up the mac attribute and run 'nodeset n042 offline'. Could you check whether the mac is the node which you are trying to discover?
 
And could you check the target node has been added in 'discoverydata' table? by running command 'tabdump discoverydata'.

Best Regards

Sure, here it is:

Object name: n042
     arch=x86_64
     bmc=172.30.192.56
     bmcpassword=admin
     bmcport=0
     bmcusername=admin
     chain=runcmd=bmcsetup,osimage=centos7.3-x86_64-node-giga
     cons=ipmi
     groups=all,ipmi,node-giga
     installnic=mac
     ip=172.30.240.56
     mac=0c:c4:7a:71:f6:ba
     mgt=ipmi
     netboot=xnba
     nfsserver=172.30.240.1
     postbootscripts=otherpkgs
     postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles
     primarynic=mac
     provmethod=centos7.3-x86_64-node-giga
     serialflow=hard
     serialport=1
     serialspeed=115200
     tftpdir=/tftpboot
     tftpserver=172.30.240.1
     xcatmaster=172.30.240.1

If that matters the nodes I'm installing are x86_64 Supermicro servers.
BIOS is set in "legacy" mode (*not* UEFI).

Cheers.
