dx360 M4?  If so, then it must be at least xCAT 2.7 (ideally 2.7.3) and it
*should* pull in xCAT_genesis-x86_64 as a prerequisite to handle the M4
models.

Subject:        [xcat-user] Problems with autodiscovery on a iDataplex
            installation



Hello list,

   We're trying without much success to run xCAT autodiscovery over an
iDataplex complex.
Reading past posts in this list we kinda of suspect we made some mistake
with compiling tables but so far were not able to spot it. Can someone
please help us understanding what's going on?

What we see happening on the discovering host are the messages
"/tmp/destiny" and  "/tmp/dhcpserver : no such file or directory".
Here's the dump of our tables:
