What version of xCAT are you running? (xdsh -V)
Where /install is mounted on the service nodes?
If site.installloc is set? what is it value?

Subject: Re: [xcat-user] service node pools, diskfull nodes,
nfsserver
Either this question is too simple that nobody wants to answer it, or I've
stumped everyone :)
Any help is greatly appreciated. Still not able to get this working
properly.

Hi all,
I am having some trouble getting service node pools and diskfull nodes to
work properly. The issue I am having is:
c1n01: Error: Unable to find requested nfsserver from noderes, with

My noderes table:

It is my understanding that if you leave "xcatmaster" blank, whoever boots
the node via DHCP becomes that node's xcatmaster. It is also my
understanding that if you leave nfsserver and tftpserver blank, they will
inherit their values from xcatmaster.
What I am attempting to do is set up an environment where whoever boots
the node from DHCP becomes that node's xcatmaster, nfsserver, tftpserver,
and ftp server. I can't seem to get past xcat complaining about nfsserver
being blank however, even when I put an entry in for "xcatmaster". What am
I doing wrong?
Thanks for the help!
