We recommend you to have your  Management Node at a Redhat 6.x level to
install Redhat 6.x nodes, preferably the same Redhat level you want to
install on the nodes or later.   Also you will need to be running xCAT
2.7.2 release or later for Redhat 6.2 support.

Subject:        [xcat-user] install client  node in RedHat 6.2



Hi,

xcat 2.7
management node : RHEL 5.5 x86_64  x3550
client node : Blade HS22 7870

We have a xCAT configuration that it works to install node in RHEL 5

We would like to install the same node in RHEL 6.2
We have modified the xCAT configuration of this node to change the os .
and we have adapted the kickstart to RHEL 6 specification

1. pxe network boot : ok
2. bootloader downloaded by tftp
3 the installation stop with this message :
***********************************************

Waiting for NetworkManager to configure eth0.
There was an error configuring your network interface.
This cannot be corrected in cmdline mode.
Halting.
******************************************

I tried different configuration in the kickstart to configure the
network
network --bootproto dhcp
specify the device
put a static network configuration

but it fails every-time with the same error when the networkManager
want to configure eth0.

I have the same error if I use the template provide by xCAT under
/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/rh/

Thanks,
Fabrice Cantos
