Hi Russell ,
After running nodeset, you can add the multiple paths into the kickstart
file /install/<nodename> manually, such as
#nfs --server --dir
#url --url http://11.10.3.1/install/rhels6.3/x86_64
repo --name=pkg0 --baseurl=http://11.10.3.1/install/rhels6.3/x86_64
repo --name=pkg1 --baseurl=http://11.10.3.1/
install/update/rhels6.3/x86_64/2013_Q1install/updates
#device ethernet e100
keyboard "us"
and then run "rpower <nodename> reset ", it will install the os from both
the base os repo and the updates repo.

Using v2.7 which doesn't appear to support multiple paths in pkgdir.

Subject: [xcat-user] Updating RHEL6.3
It seems like applying updates to a RHEL6.3 has to be a two-step process
and it seems like it could be just one.
For instance, we have a basic RHEL6.3 installation directory that was
created with the 'copycds' command.
Call it "/install/rhels6.3/x86_64"
Every quarter we pull updates from Red Hat and store them in a repository.
Call it "/install/update/rhels6.3/x86_64/2013_Q1"
When provisioning a node, I'd like to just repoint the "pkgdir" option to
the update directory so that Anaconda just pulls directly from the
updates.
E.g. Change the osimage so that
"pkgdir=/install/update/rhels6.3/x86_64/2013_Q1" rather than
"pkgdir=/install/rhels6.3/x86_64"
Is this possible? I tried it and got an error from xCAT that there weren't
any image files in the pkgdir location.
