Hi! I've replied back to the list with your question so that this can help any folks in the future Googling for this issue. Also someone else on the list may have better documentation to be able to point you to. This Youtube video should be able to help you with defining your IPMI devices: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rUJ3dy2hjQ This user has a few good xCAT videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/sumavisor If your servers are already pulling an IP address for their BMC interfaces from DHCP, more than likely you either: A) Have the BMC interfaces plugged into the same flat switch as your cluster network. In which case I would recommend vlanning them on the switch so they are not sharing the same network and properly defining the BMC network in the "networks" table. or B) When you did your "getmacs" or other methods for adding all of the MAC addresses into the xcat database you also added the BMC interfaces and have the BMC network configured with your xcat management node as the DHCP server. In order to do my racks of c6100's, all I had to do was follow the configuration steps that are outlined in that Youtube video. The BMC interfaces were plugged into a completely separate switch that the xCAT management node was also plugged into, and also had an IP on. I defined the network in the "networks" table *without* DHCP support (as I did not want my BMC interfaces obtaining dynamic IP's) and manually configured them all using "bmcsetup". Hope this helps!
