It really has problem in your env that otherpkgs does not work during the
installation.
xCAT supplies two approaches to make otherpkgs to work:
1. Using 'yum'. In your env that several .repo files
(/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-*.repo) were created on your installed node, and
inside the .repo, the url address like 'mirrorlist.centos.org' cannot be
resolved by the OS that caused the yum failed. I'll discuss this inside
xCAT team to see how to resolve it.
2. If 'yum' failed, using 'rpm'. It should work on you env, but your
configuration file
'/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/centos/compute.centos6.1.x86_64.otherpkgs.pkglist'
has problem.
Put the blcr instead of blcr.x86_64, since the rpm name is
blcr-0.8.4-1.x86_64.rpm
Following dependency could not be found in the specified path:
pkgconfig(libxml-2.0) is needed by hwloc-devel-1.3-0.el6.x86_64
perl(DBI) is needed by slurm-slurmdb-direct-2.3.2-1.el6.x86_64
libpq.so.5()(64bit) is needed by slurm-sql-2.3.2-1.el6.x86_64The reason that updatenode worked in your env was that updatenode run the 'ospkgs' postscript inside that cleaned/created the corrected .repo file. As a work around, I added the 'ospkgs' as the postscript for the node in your env, but did not get chance to get the result.

Let me know if I can send any more info. Wang - the cluster is again accessible from the internet, same as before. So - why do I need to run updatenode manually to execute the postscripts, and why doesn't "updatenode otherpkgs" work?

Could you confirm that the optherpkgs was added in the postbootscripts attribute (postbootscripts=otherpkgs) Thanks Best Regards ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Wang Xiaopeng (王晓朋) IBM China System Technology Laboratory Tel: 86-10-82453455 Email: [email protected] Address: 28,ZhongGuanCun Software Park,No.8 Dong Bei Wang West Road, Haidian District Beijing P.R.China 100193 (Embedded image moved to file: pic14288.gif)Inactive hide details for Sten Wolf ---2012-01-02 17:06:50---As I mentioned - doesn't work. after nodeset osimage, rpower n01 Sten Wolf ---2012-01-02 17:06:50---As I mentioned - doesn't work. after nodeset osimage, rpower n01 reset at the end the otherpkgs are From: Sten Wolf <[email protected]> To: Xiao Peng Wang/China/IBM@IBMCN Cc: Daniel Letai <[email protected]> Date: 2012-01-02 17:06 Subject: Re: connection to the cluster with makedhcp (pxe) and updatenode issues Sent by: Daniel Letai <[email protected]> As I mentioned - doesn't work. after nodeset osimage, rpower n01 reset at the end the otherpkgs are not installed.
