That does bring up a question, why is rsetboot being called? According to
man page, it's for impi only for now, and it works as expected on the
physical servers I tested on just now, z10148 is a kvm guest though...

That was it, we had a custom version of Sys-Virt from a legacy requirement,
updated to latest SLES version, rpower is functioning as expected, thanks
for the quick assist!

It’s probable that Sys::Virt didn’t used to have it and the update to 2.8
has a requirement to go up on Sys::Virt…

Subject: [xcat-user] 2.9.1 rpower issue
SLES 11.3 MN SLES11.3 KVM hyper xCAT upgraded from 2.7.5 to 2.9.1.
Still working though some of the wrinkles, but have my first show stopper:
#rinstall z10148
z10148: install sles11.3-x86_64-EI.kvm_new.sles11
Error: z10148: Unable to identify plugin for this command, check relevant
tables: nodehm.power,mgt;nodehm.mgt
Error: rsetboot failure will not continue
Which sorta pointed me toward the rpower call and it does seem to be the
current issue:
# rpower z10148 boot
Error: kvm plugin bug, pid 32652, process description: 'xCATd SSL: rpower
to z10148 for root@localhost: kvm instance' with error 'Can't locate object
method "is_active" via package "Sys::Virt::Domain"
at /opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT_plugin/kvm.pm line 2416.' while trying to
fulfill request for the following nodes: z10148
And then hangs command never completes. Looks to be related to "is_active"
call, any of those lines in kvm.pm error out, and any that don't (e.g. on,
softboot, etc) work. rpower does work when calling to hmc and ipmi
servers, just not kvm guests
