Thomas, Do you have all the entries in /etc/hosts and on the DNS? They are redundant, I know, but sometimes xCAT picks values from /etc/hosts and sometimes from DNS. This is really a problem, but you get used to it.
If you’re unable to create the entries with makehosts, since you said that the machine isn’t an xCAT object, you can put the entries manually. xCAT will not override. I assumed this with your feedback, not sure if it’s the problem either.
