Anyway, if the everything is correctly setup, running the following
commands from the management node can fix the problem. The updatenode
command will rerun the postscripts.
xdsh node0800 -K
and updatenode node0800 -P

The command should be run on the node. the IP should be the ip for the
xcatmaster. In your case:
10.125.4.39 is the node ip for node0800 . 10.125.40.6 is the xcatmaster
of the node according to the node definition.
Please ssh to node0800, then run wget on the node.
wget -l inf -N -r --waitretry=10 --random-wait --retry-connrefused -e
robots=off -nH --cut-dirs=2 --reject "index.html*" --no-parent -t 0 -T 60
http://10.125.40.6/install/postscripts/ -P /xcatpost
And also check on xcatmaster ( 10.125.40.6), make sure there is a
acctually a directory /install/postscripts with all the postscripts.
BTW, is the netmask 255.255.0.0 on networks table for 10.125 network or
you put the wrong ip for xcatmaster for the node?

ok, on management node (or the service node), there is a directory
/install/autoinst, there is a file with the node name, that is the kick
start file. Can you view that file and look for 'wget'? You will get
something like:
wget -l inf -N -r --waitretry=10 --random-wait --retry-connrefused -e
robots=off -nH --cut-dirs=2 --reject "index.html*" --no-parent -t 0 -T 60
http://$i$INSTALLDIR/postscripts/ -P /xcatpost
Can you run this command on the node? This is the first step to prepare
the postscripts to be run on the node. Replace $i with the ip of the
service node, $INSTALLDIR with "/install". See what error it gives you.

1. Are you able to ssh to the node with password or without password? If
you could ssh without password, that means remoteshell postscript worked.
With password only
2. Do you see /xcatpost directory with all the postscripts on the node?
No
3. What are the content of /xcatpost/mypostscript and
/xcatpost/mypostscript.post on the node?
Not there
4. Any error from /var/log/xcat/xcat.log file? Any error from
/tmp/wget.log?
There is no /var/log/xcat/ or /tmp/wget.log
5. In most cases, incorrect name resolution is the culprit for postscript
not running. Could you please make sure that the node ip can be resolved
to the correct node name on both management node and the service node?
(reverse lookup)
[root@master postscripts]# nslookup node0800
Server: 10.125.40.6
Address: 10.125.40.6#53
Name: node0800.palmetto.clemson.edu
Address: 10.125.4.39
[root@master postscripts]# nslookup 10.125.4.39
Server: 10.125.40.6
Address: 10.125.40.6#53
39.4.125.10.in-addr.arpa name = node0800.palmetto.clemson.edu.
And the same for all 5 of our service nodes.

Subject: [xcat-user] xcat 2.8.5, centos7, postscripts
I'm trying to get centos7 compute nodes imaged, I have a basic centos7
profile/group set up and the OS installs but the postscripts don't seem to
run, starting with resyslog in postscripts.postscripts field. I'm not sure
about the default postscripts like syslog,remoteshell, etc. but does't
seem to do anything, either. The master node and service nodes are on SL6,
if that matters. Stumped at the moment...
Here is the node I'm testing on:
[root@master centos7.0]# lsdef node0800
