Er Tao & Xu Wei,
Could you take a look that in which case the destiny is null?
Jul 7 09:18:25 172.30.241.71 (none) xcat.genesis.doxcat: Received destiny=
Jul 7 09:18:25 172.30.241.71 (none) xcat.genesis.doxcat: The destiny=,

Best Regards

Haaa yes, you're right, excellent.
So my "no nodes free" problem was because every time I specified the
host MAC address in my "mkdef" command:
mkdef -t node -o spiro-n042-clu groups="all,ipmi,node-giga" arch=x86_64
mgt=ipmi bmc=172.30.192.56 mac=0c:c4:7a:71:f6:ba ip=172.30.240.56
provmethod="centos7.3-x86_64-node-giga"
As soon as I removed the MAC address, "nodediscoverstart" said:
nodediscoverstart -V noderange=n042
Sequential Discovery: Started:
Number of free node names: 1
====================Free Nodes===================
NODE HOST IP BMC IP
spiro-n042-clu 172.30.240.56 172.30.192.56
But still if I look at the node console, it fails:

getdestiny --> 172.30.240.1:3001

Jul 7 09:18:31 172.30.241.71 (none) xcat.genesis.doxcat: ... Will
retry xCAT in 90 seconds
I'll look into this next week.
Thanks.
