Thanks!
DNS is working properly, both forward and reverse... this seems to occur
mostly when entire clusters are booted at the same time.
The nodes are not within the same subnet, all of these nodes are on
different subnets from the service nodes (and routed of course). The
other strange thing is again, it works fine even with that error:
[root@service03-hc log]# grep c25n37 messages
Dec 7 09:05:02 service03 xCAT: xCAT: Allowing getpostscript from c25n37
Dec 7 09:05:03 service03 xCAT: Cannot find master for the node c25n37
Dec 7 09:05:14 service03 xCAT: xCAT: Allowing getcredentials from c25n37
Dec 7 09:05:24 service03 xCAT: xCAT: Allowing getcredentials from c25n37
Dec 7 09:05:32 service03 xCAT: xCAT: Allowing getcredentials from c25n37
Could this message manifest itself if a service node is very busy? IE,
not really an error, just took too long to respond to the request? Or is
this literally sending the error because the compute nodes are not on
the same subnet as the service nodes?

Hi,
The error is from getFacingIP function. This function takes a node
name as an input. Then it
find out the ip of the given node. Then it call "ifconfig" on the
local host. Then it try to see if the node ip and local host is within
the same subnet or not. (Please see the code below). The error usually
happens when the name resolution on the local host cannot resolve the
given node. Hope it helps.

Gets the ip address of the adapter of the localhost that is
facing the
the given node.
Arguments:
The name of the node that is facing the localhost.

Subject: [xcat-user] Cannot find master for the node $node
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi all,
What circumstances have to be present for an xCAT 2.3 service node (old
I know, but upgrade is not an option at this time) to write to the logs:
Dec 7 09:16:33 service03 xCAT: Cannot find master for the node c25n25
All of our service nodes have been doing this for at least over a month
now, and we have just never noticed it before as nodes are
netbooting/installing fine. Just curious what the logic is in the code
that has this message being written out, just so that if it turns out to
be something we need to track down we know where to start.
Thanks!
