Hello Jamie et all,
I think I go it! :-)
Somehow xcatd believes it needs to resolve addresses using IPv6.
To try this out I've modified /opt/xcat/sbin/xcatd and forced
$inet6support to be "0":
[...]
my $inet6support;
if ($^O =~ /^aix/i) { # disable AIX IPV6 TODO
$inet6support = 0;
} else {
$inet6support=eval { require Socket6 };
}
$inet6support = 0; # <--------------- Inserted this line
After restarting xcatd updateflag.awk started to behave, so indeed it
was a name resolution issue, but a little more tricky than what I
supposed initially.
We're now trying to understand why "$inet6support=eval { require Socket6
};" is returning something it should not in our understanding.
At least now we have something working, even if not exactly using a fix
I perfectly like.
In case we have something more worth sharing, I'll push the updates to
the list.
Thanks everybody for the help and notes,
Dario
