bmcsetup was a red herring. The real cause for the booting problems was that Platform Cluster Manager set a specific serial port for serial console access, and that didn't match the configuration of most of the nodes. We removed that port information, power-cycled the problem nodes, and they all came up normally, including assigning the desired IP addresses to their deployment interfaces.
I hope this information will help others who encounter this problem. Sincerely, Calvin Dodge _______________________________________________ xCAT-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xcat-user
