Thanks! I'm pretty sure this only applies to service node pools however, and
if "disjointdhcps" is set to 0. In this particular setup I have
"disjointdhcps" set to 1:

[root@mn ~]# tabdump site
#key,value,comments,disable
"blademaxp","64",,
"domain","xcat",,
"fsptimeout","0",,
"installdir","/install",,
"ipmimaxp","64",,
"ipmiretries","3",,
"ipmitimeout","2",,
"consoleondemand","no",,
"master","192.168.1.1",,
"maxssh","8",,
"ppcmaxp","64",,
"ppcretry","3",,
"ppctimeout","0",,
"sharedtftp","0",,
"SNsyncfiledir","/var/xcat/syncfiles",,
"tftpdir","/tftpboot",,
"xcatdport","3001",,
"xcatiport","3002",,
"xcatconfdir","/etc/xcat",,
"timezone","America/New_York",,
"useNmapfromMN","no",,
"enableASMI","no",,
"vsftp","y",,
"nameservers","192.168.1.1",,
"forwarders","4.2.2.1",,
"installloc","storage01:/install",,
"svloglocal","0",,
"disjointdhcps","1",,
"dhcpinterfaces","mn|eth1;service01|eth0;service02|eth0",,
"dhcpsetup","n",,
"dnshandler","bind",,




So Service02 would not have any DHCP information for this node, yet my
management node is still trying to talk to Service02. Is this a bug then
perhaps?
