Hi Casandra
Thanks for the reply,
Ran those commands you
And also did a nodepurge cloud001 on the prod server
And It’s still picking up the prod servers address when doing an rinstall (

did u run this command on XX.XX.X.XXX server?
makedhcp -d nodename
and two more command to clean up from prod cluster, you should remove the
node definition too, at lease need to remove mac address.
makedns -d nodename
makegocons -d nodename
then on the new test cluster:
makedns nodename
makegocons nodename
makedhcp nodename
nslookup nodename <<<<<--- make sure it return correct address

Hi ddj,
Yes I’m pulling a few nodes from the prod cluster,
I did makedhcp -d nodename and this sort of helped
It does a pxe boot, but still picks up the prod xcat server address
xcatprobe detect_dhcpd -i <MN interface name> -m <node's mac address>
Server: XX.XX.X.XXX assign IP [XX.XX.X.XXX]. The next server is
[XX.XX.X.XXX]! [INFO] ß--- this is the prod xcat server, how do I remove
this??
Server: XX.XX.X.XXX assign IP [ZZ.ZZ.Z.ZZZ]. The next server is
[ZZ.ZZ.Z.ZZZ]! [INFO] <- THIS IS THE NEW TEST XCAT SERVER
Is there any way to remove this, will this help?

When you have two dhcp servers on the same wire/subnet, need to make sure
that the MAC address
is only recognized by one of them. If the "production" server is running
xcat, use makedhcp -d nodename
to get rid of the association over there, and presume (or check, with
makedhcp -q nodename) that it's
registered in your new cluster. My guess is that you pulled out a compute
node from the production cluster
to play with.

try those two command to diagnosis if there are configure

xcatprobe xcatmn -i <MN interface name>
xcatprobe detect_dhcpd -i <MN interface name> -m <node's mac

Hi,
I recently build an xcat server
Rpower works
But doing an rinstall, it keeps failing at the PXE boot
I’m doing rinstal <node name> -u
It uses UEFI
I’m starting to pull my hair now on what’s the issue
Here is the error I see when I’m doing an rcons.
Thanks
