There is no need to keep the xCAT master node around once the machines have been imaged.But it sure makes life easier if you do.--

[xcat-user] xCAT as simple PXE Server for Unattended installations

[Vinícius Ferrão]

Hello,

I would like to use xCAT as a simple baremetal provisioner.

As far as I understood from the documentation the deployed machines must talk 
with the xCAT server after the installation, (correct-me if I’m wrong please) 
so if the xCAT server goes away what happens next? There’s a way to safely 
ditch the server after installation?

The idea of using xCAT is just to avoid to manually install / deploy: DHCP, 
PXE, TFTP, Local Repository, Kickstart Files, etc. 

Thanks,
V.
