If the discovery process isn't applicable (e.g. you don't need/care for
xcat to gather mac address automatically/reconfigure ipmi device/etc/etc,
then:
nodech <node> mac.mac=newmac
makedhcp <node>

If you want xCAT to gather the new mac address (and you have switch or mp
table filled out depending on whether it is a blade type or rackmount
system) and have a dynamicrange on the network segment, it should just be a
matter of turnining it on and making sure it pxe boots.

Subject:        [xcat-user] change MAC address of cluster node



Dear all,

we are running a HPC Linux cluster managed by xCAT.
Today the system board of one node was changed.
Now I've to tell xCAT the new MAC addresse. How
can I replace the old MAC address with the new one ?

Thanks
Best Regards
Rolf Trinoga
