Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE No, on failing node - /var/log/xcat doesn't exist and no errors for xcatd on management node.
After the kickstart and reboot, it errors on /xcatpost/updateflag.awk (and doesn't run any of the postscripts to complete the setup) Initially, gpu4 wasn't defined in the postscripts table. For testing, I disabled the gpu group (that gpu4 is a member of) and manually added a record to the table for gpu4. Was that the correct way to do that? The very first rebuild to 6.5 actually worked and ran the postscripts, but when I kicked it off a second time with some additional postscripts for testing, it started failing with this error.

I'm a new xcat user (please note this) and have run into an issue that's I'm unsure how to resolve. I've been rebuilding nodes successfully (upgrading to rhels6.5) and then for one of the rebuilds I get the error: awk: /xcatpost/updateflag.awk:22: fatal: remote host and port information (3002, installstatus booted) invalid (It consistently happens now and I suspect it has something to do with a modification to the postscripts table, which I've been doing for other successfully rebuilds. I've backed out that change, but it hasn't resolved the issue for me) Anyways, I've traced this down to the /xcatpost/mypostscript.post file missing any references to MASTER (plus other environment variables) and this causes the postscripts to fail to execute. Lsdef still shows a status of "installing"... Would anyone have some advice on what to check?
