In xCAT 2.8, we added a new osdistro table and a new osdistroname attribute for the osimage def (where osdistroname matches an entry in the osdistro table). I think the addkitcomp is looking for this osimage attribute and corresponding osdistro table entry to verify the OS distro.
e.g. I have:
# lsdef -t osdistro -l rhels6.4-x86_64
Object name: rhels6.4-x86_64
arch=x86_64
basename=rhels
dirpaths=/install/rhels6.4/x86_64
majorversion=6
minorversion=4
type=Linux
[root@x3550n01 ~]# lsdef -t osimage -l linda -i osdistroname
Object name: linda
osdistroname=rhels6.4-x86_64
It looks like you are missing at least the osdistroname attribute in your
osimage def. I'm guessing your osimage def was created by copying a def
from a previous xCAT release. For the osdistro object, the should be
created by copycds, so you most likely have a RH 6.4 entry there.

Subject: [xcat-user] Xeon Phi addkitcomp fails when adding to osimage
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi there,
Using kit kindly sent to the list by Wang Xiaopeng I've successfully
gone through the wiki page and built the kit and added the kit to xCAT,
but when I try and add it to our osimage for our Xeon Phi nodes I get:
[root@barcoo-m kits]# addkitcomp -a -i rhel64phi_updates
mpss_compute-2.1.6720-15-rhels-6-x86_64
Error: osimage rhel64phi_updates doesn't fit to kit component

Any ideas?
