Hi:

For better performance,  nodeset will not add kcmdline and initrd to node
definition any more.
But you can find those in the /tftpboot/petitboot/nodename after ran
nodeset command.


Thanks,
Casandra

Subject:        [xcat-user] Issue when running nodeset - kcmdline & initrd not
            set using xcat 2.13 and CentOS7



Hello,

I have installed a new version of xcat v2.13 on CentOS7 and have migrated
my xcat tables from another xcat server that was running CentOS6 with xcat
2.9

The migrated data looks fine but when adding new nodes, I see some
incomplete information after I run nodeset. For instance on node 113 there
is no information set on kcmdline & initrd. Information copied over from
xcatdump for node 102 looks fine.
Does anyone has any suggestions?

New Environment Information:

2 Managements Nodes set for HA using GPFS to share the xCAT data and I use
a VIP Interface to bring up xcat services.
