There are a couple of issues here. One is you should not be installing both the service node metapackage and the management node metapackage xCATsn-4:2.8-snap201302181705.x86_64 xCAT-2.8-snap201302181705.x86_64
But to answer the question and it is in the release notes under Restrictions and Known Problems. You cannot install 2.8 on SLES 10, AIX 6.1, or Redhat 5 ppc64 , see defect 3426 below and the release notes. https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/xcat/index.php?title=XCAT_2.8_Release_Notes SLES 10 does not contain a perl dependency (perl library IO::Uncompress::Gunzip )that the xcatd requires in 2.8. In 2.8.1 when it comes out, you will be able to install, but will not be able to use genesis discovery. https://sourceforge.net/p/xcat/bugs/3426/ Lissa K.
