tftpd is an optional feature, if you want to have your repository using FTP vs. HTTP. By default, the repository (which contains OS images, postscripts, autoyast/kickstart templates that are accessible by all the nodes) on xCAT uses HTTP.

I enabled ipv6 and rebooted. I received this message Starting xCATd ERROR: The tftpd was not installed, enable the tftp failed. But this time the xcat daemon did start and so I am going to continue forward in the documentation. Thanks for the input.
