Hello,

I have commented out the domain-search lines and restarted dhcpd, I could 
then run makedhcpd -a, it did change the content of 
/var/lib/dhcpd/dhcpd.leases, but did not solve the problem.

I have removed atftpd and installed tftp-server so that xcatd could start 
properly. I localy tested tftp to make sure tftpd was running properly. I 
tested it from a compute node as well.

The node does properly do a PXE boot, but it does not go all the way.

BootOrder is : Legacy Only      CD/DVD Rom      Floppy Disk     PXE 
Network Hard Disk 0

hpc1A620c# ./asu64 show BootOrder

I now have an extra message when tftp retrieves the file but still no 
install and blank screen once the dhcpd server receives the DHCPACK for 
the installation address. Note, the mask on the admin network is 
255.255.252.0 so the xCAT server 10.252.7.204 is in the same VLAN as the 
compute node I am trying to add 10.252.5.20.

With my bootorder rsetboot is not needed. If I use it the pxe boot is not 
Legacy anymore, any way it does not install either but does not go to disk 
either, it remains hung.

Where can I look ? How can I increase verbosity ?

Thank you for your help.

Hello, 

My hardware is a cluster of x3550 M3 running RHEL5.5. x3550 M4 nodes are 
to be added soon which explains the migration they'll be installed with 
RedHat 6. 
In order to be ready we decided to migrate the current xCAT server from 
2.5.1 to 2.8. It is currently running RHEL 5.5. 

makedhcp -n ran, but dhcpd service will not start anymore now :
