Hi, I have got stuck at the bmcsetup stage. I can ssh to the node in genesis image and run my own script but I really would like to make the bmcsetup work so the deployment is automatic.
When I run bmcsetup from genesis it will create bmcreq.xml file which then is used to contact xcatserver and obtain info to populate the ipmicfg.xml file. Unfortunately the ipmicfg.xml file does not get populated correctly. cat /tmp/bmcreq.xml <xcatrequest> <command>getbmcconfig</command> <callback_port>300</callback_port> <bmcmac>18:03:73:ff:5c:80</bmcmac> </xcatrequest> cat /tmp/ipmicfg.xml <xcatresponse> <error>Invalid table configuration for bmcconfig</error> <errorcode>1</errorcode> </xcatresponse> <xcatresponse> <serverdone></serverdone> </xcatresponse> on xcatmaster nodels sand-1-59 ipmi sand-1-59: ipmi.password: root sand-1-59: ipmi.bmcport: 0 sand-1-59: ipmi.bmc: 10.145.1.59 sand-1-59: ipmi.node: sand-1-59 sand-1-59: ipmi.username: root sand-1-59: ipmi.comments: sand-1-59: ipmi.disable: any ideas where is the problem?
