for now, try yum install xCAT-genesis-x86_64 if CentOS or RedHat...

FYI 2.7.2 should amend the requirements so this would not be necessary.

Hi,

This is a new Dell C6xxx system (a chassis with for "stick" servers). Yes I
though that the lack of network module may be a cause as the ifconfig
injected into getdestiny script only shows lo interface. The system uses
intel igb driver I believe.

I was following
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/xcat/index.php?title=XCAT_iDataPlex_Cluster_Quick_Start
 which may be now outdated to some extent especially for a new hardware.

I am using xcat-2.7, sowhat I need to do to use the new genesis
environment ?

Many thanks for your help.

Wojciech

  Hi

  I am attempting to boot a new node using auto discovery mode. The node
  boots into xnba kernel but then fails at getdestiny script and goes
  into loop showing following errors

  cat: can't open '/tmp/dhcpserver': No such file or directory
  grep: /tmp/destiny: No such file or directory
  grep: /tmp/destiny: No such file or directory

  I have done some investigation but got stuck and can not find where
  the /tmp/dhcpserver should be created and populated with data, any
  help will be greatly appreciated.

  Best regards
