runcmd=bmcsetup and such is intended to be identical.  The only thing that
is expected to be missing is the ability to run against uclibc linked
executables, which no one was doing to my knowledge, in exchange for having
glibc available (which most everyone wanted).

Hi Jarrod,

Many thanks for the clue, I managed to make it work and the MAC table has
been updated with a correct address. Now I would like to give a go to chain
some more actions like bmc setup and the reboot into a compute image. Does
this work in genesis similarly as in the old xnba ?

regards,

Wojciech

  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   which may be now outdated to some extent especially for a new hardware.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
