Suddenly the lsxcatd command is returning 2.8.3 to me now. I'm not sure why it would take time to update, but it looks fine now:
[root@x3650-head01 init.d]# lsxcatd -a Version 2.8.3 (built Tue Nov 12 23:16:15 EST 2013) This is a Management Node cfgloc=mysql:dbname=xcatdb;host=10.X.X.X|xxxxxx dbengine=mysql dbname=xcatdb dbhost=10.X.X.X dbadmin=xxxxxx And here is my rpm query: [root@x3650-head01 init.d]# rpm -qa | grep xCAT xCAT-nbroot-oss-ppc64-2.0-snap200801291320 xCAT-nbkernel-x86-2.6.18_128-8 xCAT-genesis-scripts-x86_64-2.8.3-snap201311122318 perl-xCAT-2.8.3-snap201311122316 xCAT-server-2.8.3-snap201311122316 xCAT-nbroot-core-x86-2.3.1-snap200911062009 xCAT-2.8.3-snap201311122318 xCAT-nbroot-oss-x86_64-2.0-snap200801291344 xCAT-nbroot-core-x86_64-2.3.1-snap200911062009 xCAT-nbkernel-x86_64-2.6.18_128-8 xCAT-genesis-base-x86_64-2.8-snap201308090229 xCAT-nbroot-oss-x86-2.0-snap200804021050 xCAT-nbroot-core-ppc64-2.3.1-snap200911062009 xCAT-nbkernel-ppc64-2.6.18_92-4 xCAT-buildkit-2.8.3-snap201311122318 xCAT-client-2.8.3-snap201311122316 Except for the ppc64 packages (which I don't really need anyway since we use x86_64) everything is up to the current version. The xCAT nbroot-core and nbkernel RPMs aren't up to 2.8.X but it seems that they are still at the most current version available (I have my yum repos pointing to the latest tarballs of the core and dep packages). Thanks for all the help & suggestions. I'm just going to try using it now. This was all prep so that I can deploy some service nodes (as mentioned in my other emails to the mailing list).
