Re: Change image timeout



I believe the problem is related to the Install Path setting for your 
management 
node:
Management Nodes > Edit Management Node Information > Edit

Based on the paths being used, I'm guessing yours is set to 'storage/x86'. 

Where does the partimage .gz file reside?  If it actually resides in 
'/storage/image/x86' then change the Install Path setting to 'storage'.

The .tmpl file residing in this directory may indicate another problem 
with the 
xCAT root path.  Where is xCAT installed and which version of xCAT are you 

using?  Search your log file for 'xCAT root path found:'.  What path does 
this 
line contain?

Regards,
Andy
