Using the -V flag in cron returns the following error:
[1:01 PM] Sajesh Singh
Command failed: tabdump 2>&1. Error message: .
Error running tabdump to get list of tables
Which seems to point to the following section of code:
# Dump using xCAT utilities
my @output = xCAT::Utils->runcmd("tabdump", 0);
if ($::RUNCMD_RC != 0)
{ # error
xCAT::MsgUtils->message("E",
"Error running tabdump to get list of tables");
exit 1;
}
I am able to do a tabdump of the site table from a cron script.

You can try running "dumpxCATdb" with the "-V" verbose flag.
You can also try to see if DB is accessible from cron, by doing "tabdump site"
from the cron.

Trying to do a nightly dump of the xCat DB from cron, but the dumpxCATdb does
not seem to work. It creates the directory as expected, but does nothing after.
No errors. I am able to run the script from an interactive shell successfully
as the same user it runs from cron as. Has anyone encountered this issue with
the dumpxCATdb script before?
