There were a couple of bugs that were fixed in NetworkUtils.pm where xCAT
was using the gateway and netmask from the active MN instead of the
networks table. Could that be the problem here?

The code before that message checks for:
!$network || !$mask || !$nameserver )
FYI,
It looks thru the networks table to see that the IP of the provisioned
system is in a defined subnet(compares IP to value in "net" and "mask"
column). If it is then $network is set to the value in the "net" column.
Next it gets the 'mask', 'gateway', 'tftpserver', 'nameservers' fields
from that network in networks table that matches the "net" column. If
found then mask and gateway are set to the values found. It looks then for
a value of "<xcatmaster>" in the "nameserver" column, if found it does a
lookup to get the IP of xCAT to set in the nameserver; otherwise use the
nameserver value.
I see some IP values of a subnet 51 and 50 in your network table and node
sl11d130 is also in subnet 51; might that be it?

What does your networks table have for the nameserver column? Is that a
range in what you have displayed? Shouldn't that just be one IP and not a
range?

Ling, I'll try to answer some of your questions.
xCAT 2.8.3.4
I plan to use the 172 network.
The answer to everything else is NO.
I am trying to follow 'Tutorial on Managing z/VM through the xCAT-UI.
I just recently applied the latest maintenance to xCAT.

What version of xCAT are you using? Are there service nodes involved?
Which network are planing to use for deploying the nodes, 10 or 172?
Did you run makedhcp -n and makeshcp -a?
Have you put the node's ip in /etc/hosts?
Did you run makedns?
Can you show us the output of lsdef <node>?
Thanks,

I have the following problem when I try to provision. I used to be able to
do this, but I managed to zap some xCAT tables and am starting from
scratch again.
