Hello,

Thank you Lissa for your answer, so I did migrate to 2.8.0 after 
installing the Perl rpms from deps.

Now I fail to reinstall any node.

It does boot PXE and acknowledges its address.
It does retrieve xcat/xnba.kpxe with atftpd
It does request and gets its IP address again

But then nothing happens nor shows on the console untill the node 
eventually boots on its internal disk.

How can I investigate the error ? Are there logs somewhere I could look at 
to understand what is happening ?

I have noticed that since I migrated from xcat 2.5.1 to xCAT 2.8.0, I have 
a recurring error message in /var/log/httpd/error_log
[Wed Apr 24 17:14:47 2013] [error] [client 10.252.4.178] File does not

Here are my files in /tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes, if my understanding is 
correct I should be using the last one (my boot order starts with legacy 
only) :

[root@hpc1A004a nodes]# cat hpc1A620c-x.uefi
#!gpxe
chain http://${next-server}/tftpboot/xcat/elilo-x64.efi -C 
/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes/hpc1A620c-x.elilo


[root@hpc1A004a nodes]# cat hpc1A620c-x.elilo

Thank you for your help.

Best regards.
