Has anyone successfully deployed xCAT to a Dell R740? The head node is running CentOS 7.6, and the xCAT version is 2.14.6.
In our case, PXE booting via UEFI failed after it loaded the binary elilo image. We switched to BIOS booting, and the installer starts to run, but then says "OS installation aborted" after a couple of seconds. /tmp/program.log consists of the following: 21:09:27,695 INFO program: Running... ipmitool event file /tmp/tmpSBo7uv 21:09:27,821 INFO program: 0 | Pre-Init |0000000000| OS Boot | Installation started | Asserted 21:09:27,821 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 21:09:28,095 INFO program: Running... losetup --list 21:09:28,113 INFO program: Running... /sbin/auditd 21:09:28,118 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 21:09:28,119 INFO program: Running... udevadm control --env=ANACONDA=1 21:09:28,130 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 21:09:28,151 INFO program: Running... /bin/sh /tmp/ks-script-l9VDut 21:09:29,008 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 21:09:29,219 INFO program: Running... udevadm trigger --action=change --subsystem-match=block 21:09:29,230 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 21:09:29,230 INFO program: Running... udevadm settle --timeout=300 21:09:29,264 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 21:09:29,265 INFO program: Running... modprobe fcoe 21:09:29,327 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 21:09:29,329 INFO program: Running... /usr/libexec/fcoe/fcoe_edd.sh -i 21:09:29,336 INFO program: No FCoE boot disk information is found in EDD! 21:09:29,337 DEBUG program: Return code: 1 21:09:29,341 INFO program: Running... udevadm settle --timeout=300 21:09:29,350 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 21:09:29,353 INFO program: Running... udevadm settle --timeout=300 21:09:29,362 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 21:09:29,364 INFO program: Running... udevadm settle --timeout=300 21:09:29,373 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 21:09:29,379 INFO program: Running... ipmitool event file /tmp/tmpT0H9KJ 21:09:29,462 INFO program: 0 | Pre-Init |0000000000| OS Boot | Installation aborted | Asserted 21:09:29,462 DEBUG program: Return code: 0 We specified a custom partition file creation script, but it appears it's not being used. Got any clues for me? What other information should I post? Calvin Dodge
