Yes, it was mounted on NFS. Thanks!

You encountered this issue when the /install directory was mounted from a nfs server, right?  This is a known defect

     

The work around is to not use the nfs mounted /install. Or set '--setopt=diskspacecheck=0' for the yum command in genimage.

 
Thanks
Best Regards

Subject: [xcat-user] genimage/yum and /install disk space requirements





Hi all,

I am working on setting up a CentOS 5 genimage node that will create
CentOS 5 images that will eventually be deployed using a CentOS 6
management node.  I am following this guide to do so:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/xcat/index.php?title=Building_a_Stateless_Image_of_a_Different_Architecture_or_OS


I am running into a strange issue with my new genimage node where a
diskless image that is only going to end up being 700 MB in the end is
requesting almost 50GB of space to install:

-------------
Disk Requirements:
At least 18431MB needed on the /install filesystem.



Never seen this before. Is this a standard thing, or has something gone
awry? Anyone else seen this before?

I have moved the /install to an NFS mount with more space to see if this
satisfies the requirements, but this doesn't seem right....
