HI,
This is not a formal announcement, but it will happen very soon, the
nodeset options "install", "netboot" and "statelite" will be deprecated in
xCAT 2.8, the os provisioning for RHEL, Fedora, CentOS and other RH family
os distros, SLES/SuSE, Debian/Ubuntu nodes should be switched to use
osimage. In xCAT 2.8, nodeset <noderange> install/netboot/statelite will
continue to work with some warning messages, but in some future release,
the nodeset <noderange> install/netboot/statelite might not work any more.
For os provisioning for ESX/ESXi, RHEV-H, Windows and zVM nodes, the
nodeset <noderange> install/netboot/statelite should still be used.
To switch your non-osimage based system to osimage based system, see xCAT
doc:
https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/xcat/index.php?title=Convert_Non-osimage_Based_System_To_Osimage_Based_System
Here is an example:
[root@ls21n01 iso]# nodeset hvm1,hvm2 install
Warning: The options "install", "netboot", and "statelite" have been
deprecated. They should continue to work in this release, but have not been
tested as carefully, and some new functions are not available with these
options. For full function and support, use "nodeset <noderange>
osimage=<osimage_name>" instead.
hvm1: install rhels6.3-x86_64-compute
hvm2: install rhels6.3-x86_64-compute
[root@ls21n01 iso]# nodeset hvm1,hvm2
osimage=rhels6.3-x86_64-install-compute
hvm1: install rhels6.3-x86_64-compute
hvm2: install rhels6.3-x86_64-compute
[root@ls21n01 iso]#
Thanks,
