Hello Mark, Yes, I’ll open an issue and I think I found the problematic code section in the template file (/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/sles/compute.sle15.tmpl):
<partitioning config:type="list">
<!-- XCAT-PARTITION-START -->
<drive>
<device>XCATPARTITIONHOOK</device>
<initialize config:type="boolean">true</initialize>
<use>all</use>
</drive>
<!-- XCAT-PARTITION-END -->
</partitioning>
Upon executing ‘nodeset … ‘ – command the snipet expands to
<partitioning config:type="list">
< partitioning config:type="list">
<drive>
<device>/dev/sda</device>
<disklabel>msdos</disklabel>
<enable_snapshots config:type="boolean">false</enable_snapshots>
<initialize config:type="boolean">true</initialize>
<partitions config:type="list">
<partition>
<create config:type="boolean">true</create>
<crypt_fs config:type="boolean">false</crypt_fs>
<filesystem config:type="symbol">xfs</filesystem>
<format config:type="boolean">true</format>
<fstopt>defaults</fstopt>
<loop_fs config:type="boolean">false</loop_fs>

</partition>
<partition>

<crypt_fs config:type="boolean">false</crypt_fs>
<filesystem config:type="symbol">swap</filesystem>
<format config:type="boolean">true</format>
<fstopt>defaults</fstopt>
<loop_fs config:type="boolean">false</loop_fs>
<mount>swap</mount>
<mountby config:type="symbol">uuid</mountby>
<partition_id config:type="integer">130</partition_id>
<partition_nr config:type="integer">2</partition_nr>
<partition_type>primary</partition_type>
<resize config:type="boolean">false</resize>
<size>2152889856</size>
</partition>
</partitions>
<pesize/>
<type config:type="symbol">CT_DISK</type>
<use>all</use>
</drive>
</partitioning>
</partitioning>
Aka, the portioning – start and end tags are inserted twice. Actually I
overlooked them, but found them using
jing jing /usr/share/YaST2/schema/autoyast/rng/profile.rng
/tmp/<expandedAutoYastFile>
After removing this additional tag, the installation runs smoothly for the
first step of the installation process.
Cheers,

Frank,
Can you open a xcat-core issue for this and post there the node and osimage
definition.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [xcat-user] Version 2.16.4: sles15.3 autoinstall unusable
Hi all,
I updated my current version from 2.16.3 to 2.16.4 and found the sles15.3
installation, although announced for
this release is completely broken (see the attached screen shots below). The
installation process can be ‘continued’ for the error in png 1, 2, but breaks
completely after the error capatured in 3.png was raised. I executed the
installation on 3 different HW instances and a VM. Does anyone experience the
same issue and might know a workaround I currently not aware of?
Many thanks in advance.
Cheers,
-Frank Heckes
