Perhaps the cmos settings need to be adjusted. If you have a shared nic
(eth0/imm) make sure the the appropriate settings in cmos indicate shared
nic. What  is the server machine type?

            replacement



OK - I'll try booting from the hard drive and see if that works, but...BMC
never got programed.  I can't reach this node with any of the rcons/rpower
commands and if I try to telnet to its bmc port it fails.

I'll keep poking to see if there are any other errors related to programing
of BMC.
Thanks,
Damir

  'standby' in this case is 'completed everything supposed to happen,

  If you put in hard drives with os still working:
  nodeset <node> boot

  if hard drive needs reinstall:
  nodeset <node> osimage

  If stateless:
  nodeset <node> netboot

  One of our GPU nodes had bad motherboard and we had it replaced few days
  ago.  After motherboard was replaced we ran rmnodecfg script and node was
  re-discovered:

  mgt xCAT node discovery: qgpu0020 has been discovered

  I can see the new MAC address in the mac table.  However, we are running
  into issues reprograming BMC.  It never finishes.  Console screen
  displays:

  Received request to retry in a bit, will call xCAT back in <amount>
  seconds.

  lsdef on this node displays that node is standby mode (not sure what that
  means):


  chain=runcmd=bmcsetup,standby


      currchain=standby


      currstate=standby


  Here is the content of the pxelinux file for this node:


  #standby


  DEFAULT xCAT


  LABEL xCAT


   KERNEL xcat/genesis.kernel.x86_64


   APPEND initrd=xcat/genesis.fs.x86_64.gz quiet console=tty0
  console=ttyS0,115200 xcatd=172.20.0.1:3001 destiny=standby
  nouveau.modeset=0


    IPAPPEND 2


  I hope you can help.
