Hi Randy,
     This is work as designed. "updatenode <node> otherpkgs" first updates 
all the rpms, then it installs or updates all the packages listed  in the 
.otherpkglist file.  Of course this behavior can be changed if more people 
request for it.

Subject:        [xcat-user] Issue with xcat updatenode command in version 
2.9.1



I am using xCAT-2.9.1-snap201503190326.x86_64. 
 
I am trying to use updatenode to install one rpm.   The 
libstdc/libstdc++.i686 package. 
 
I use the following command  “updatenode dn207 -V otherpkgs” 
 
My osimage has the other packages and pkg stanzas:
 
    otherpkgdir=/install/post/otherpkgs/rhels6.4/x86_64
    otherpkglist=/install/custom/install/rh/compute.otherpkgs.pkglist
    pkgdir=/install/rhels6.4/x86_64
    pkglist=/install/custom/install/rh/datanode.pkglist
 
I have created the compute.otherpkgs.pkglist with
libstdc/libstdc++.i686
 
When running updatenode node1 –V otherpkgs 
 
The output shows that updatenode is trying to run “yum –y upgrade” and 
then lists all of the packages that need to be upgraded.  It runs into 
errors and then runs  “yum -y install  libstdc++.i686”  and completes, but 
marks the update status in the nodelist table as failed.   I don’t want to 
update other RHEL packages only the libstdc++.i686 package.    Is there a 
bug or do I have something configured incorrectly.
