Lanae,

I remember that only a few weeks ago another user had DHCP problems after
upgrading to 2.8.4. For him it worked to just recreate the DHCP config by
running makedhcp with the respective arguments. I did not find that mail on
the fly, but you should be able to retrieve it from the xcat mailing list
archive.

[Please mind that I'm not official xcat support - only a user myself and
following the list.]

Yes, we have many nodes working that have primarynic=eth2, only a few don't
work.

      Someone tried to rinstall a node and sent me this screenshot from the
      node's console. I recently upgraded xCAT from 2.7x to 2.8.4. We use
      only diskful installs and Scientific Linux. I don't think this is
      caused by the upgrade though, I've tested other nodes rinstall fine.
      As for the upgrade, I  have our osimage definitions set up, but not
      converted provmethod to the osimages yet.

      I looked up the messages in the screenshot, but not making sense of
      it.  Any tips would be greatly appreciated, for where to look within
      xcat for the cause of this DHCP/xCAT issue. Also is there anything
      outside of xcat that we should look into, I'm not a network expert
      but I can pass the information to one.
