What we need you to do is service xcatd stop and make sure all the xcatd processes are gone and then service xcatd start. We have had problems where xcat does not really stop all its processes. If it does not you will no correctly load the new 2.7 libraries. So please follow Lings process below and insure all xcatd processes no longer exist after the service xcatd stop. Thanks!

Ling, I have restarted management node after the upgrade to make sure all .pm were registered OK, so didn't need to kill xcatd services... I have IBM BladeCenter H with HS22 servers. Management node running CentOS 5.7. Please take a look at my next email I sent after enabling xcatdebug, i.e.: ======= ... I've enabled xcatdebug and looking at the trace file... xCAT_plugin::blade is ignoring username/password from mpa table and using default USERID/PASSW0RD to communicate with mpa. Is there an additional table in xCAT 2.7 for blade mm credentials, which are different from what stored in mpa table? .... ======== Thank you.
