xCAT team does not explicitly test with CentOS, since it is very similar to RHEL.
However, we expect running xCAT management node on CentOS 7 or provisioning CentOS 7 compute nodes from CentOS 6 management node to work.

We would like to update our setup, and deploy CentOS 7 on new nodes using xcat. Our plan is to setup a new node on CentOS 7, and use that as the new deployment node before closing the existing deployment node. Can a deployment node that runs on CentOS 6 deliver a CentOS 7 image using xcat? Is it possible to run xcat on CentOS 6 as we have it in mind? Did any of you tried that before, and is happy to share the experiences you have made? Thanking in your advance. With Kind Regards, Frank Hofmann -- Dipl.-Inf.
