Just hijacking an old thread,

Did we decide that it would be a good idea to add this to the rinstall command such that it is like the following

--- rinstall.old    2013-02-27 17:27:49.103600722 +0000
+++ rinstall    2013-02-27 16:37:32.488635413 +0000

 $rc=system("rpower $noderange boot");
 if ($rc) { die "rpower failure" };
 if (basename($0) =~ /rinstall/) {

I tend to put this in a lot of the installations I do, so that we are not hampered by any of the BIOS settings

Any thoughts on this would be great.

Subject: [xcat-user] Feature request - rpower next "boot from"





Hi all,
Due to a bug in HP's ilo3 implementation of IPMI, I recently had to resort to setting all nodes in bios to always boot from disk, and during rinstall (or nodeset install) use ipmitool-xcat to set next boot device to pxe
ipmitool-xcat -I lanplus -U <ilo user> -P <ilo password> -H <ilo ip> chassis bootdev pxe
I was wandering if it's possible to add a "next boot device" to the rpower command, to simplify this (using the credentials and ip from xcat tables).------------------------------------------------------------------------------
