Hi Stephen 

I have not run it myself, but we should support the 2.9 -> 2.10 migration 
path.  xCAT GA'ed 2.9.2 recently but it was done ONLY for AIX. 
This is why there is no Linux option. 

One option if you do not want to upgrade to 2.10 is to patch your system 
with the fix  in the commit ID's that Xiao Peng mentioned below. 


Just FYI, for the upcoming 2.11 release, we have created a new xCAT 
landing page over at http://xcat.org.  This new page came about because 
moving off SF to GitHub left some missing pieces. 
I mention that because you said maybe you would move over to 2.10, which 
is a version we do have hosted over at xcat.org. 

The snapshot is essentially a build that contains fixes but does not get 
run through all the regression that would happen prio to GA.   I am trying 
to see if we can bring this back for 2.11 and create more regular snap 
builds. 
Would you have been willing to take a snapshot build under the 
understanding that it contains some bug fixes but is not fully regression 
tested until we see a need to GA the next minor version...? 

Regards,

VICTOR K. HU

Hi,

I think I am running into this too. I am on a CentOS 7 system using the 
xCAT 2 Core Packages repo which still points to xCAT 2.9.1. This bug seems 
to have been fixed in 2.9.2. What is the best way for me to go from 2.9.1 
to 2.9.2 or 2.10 using the YUM repositories? 

The baseurl is pointing to:

   https://sourceforge.net/projects/xcat/files/yum/2.9/core-snap

I'm not sure why it is pointing to core-snap instead of xcat-core. In any 
event, all of the rpms in 2.9/core-snap and 2.9/xcat-core seem to be from 
March which was before the bug was fixed.

I'm tempted to just grab the 2.10 repo file and then do yum update but I 
also want to make sure I don't break anything.

If anyone could give some thoughts on this I'd appreciate it.

Thanks a lot,

Steve

Hi all,

Just FYI, I was able to track this down to sshd not running during the
kickstart install. I've moved syncfiles to the postbootscripts section
and it is now working.
