Could you post your osimage table entry and the contents of your sync.list.

Hi Endo,
Not sure what the problem is, but having been in the same situation and
eventually given up on debugging/fixing the postscript I wrote this
small script to just tell xcatd to start the syncing:

If that works for you you could just replace syncfiles alltogether, if
not you probably have a more fundamental config problem on the frontend
side.
Hope this helps,
Andreas

I should also have shared that I am using xCAT 2.17. yesterday I
opted for the dev branch in hopes for some change.
During syncfiles the variable RCP is assigned /usr/bin/rsync, as
discovered. Following the failure the script walks through other
possibilities, ending with syncing file action encountered error.
Thank you for any suggestions

During deployment I initially got "there is no sync file template for
the node"
After adding synclists=path-to-synclist to the osimage I can see
errors and retries. I believe these are related to the following:
xdcp with -f path-to-synclist I see /tmp/rsync_computex: permission
denied
updatenode produces the same error
xdsh works fine in general, as does ssh
I also need to to develop a routine to register the node with
subscription manager. I will probably use the katello rpm,
suggestions welcome.
Thank you for any suggestions. I apologize if these are redundant but
I have spent some time searching without further
success. Andy_______________________________________________
