The MN is Centos-7.2.
I installed Centos 7. I did an update to Centos 7.2.
When I installed xCAT, it selected the prereqs. I don't know why it would have
selected this perl-Net-DNS.

Your MN is rh, right? I think you used incorrect xCAT dep repo. For rh the OS
shipped perl-Net-DNS should be used. perl-Net-DNS shipped in xCAT dep is for
sles only.
./sles12/x86_64/perl-Net-DNS-0.80-1.x86_64.rpm

I ran:
yum provides "*/Net/DNS.pm"
and I got the following output:

I think this tells me that the perl-Net-DNS in "xcat-dep" that I have uses the
wrong version of perl. I should remove:
perl-Net-DNS-0.80-1.x86_64
and install:
perl-Net-DNS-0.72-5.el7.x86_64
Do you agree?

It's strange why the DNS.pm was installed in /usr/lib instead of /usr/lib64.
In my x86_64 rh7.1, the DNS.pm is located in
/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/Net/DNS.pm which installed by
perl-Net-DNS-0.72-5.el7.x86_64.

The root cause for the failure of 'makedns' was the loading of plugin
/opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT_plugin/ddns.pm failed. Could you run following command?
# perl -I /opt/xcat/lib/perl/ -c /opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT_plugin/ddns.pm
The correct output should be:
/opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT_plugin/ddns.pm syntax OK
Thanks

Thank you, Wang Xiaopeng (王晓朋).
The commands that were run are:
makedns -n
Error: Unsupported requestor
makedns
Error: Unsupported request
I thought a tabdump of passwd might be of interest:
tabdump passwd
#key,username,password,cryptmethod,authdomain,comments,disable
"system","root","xxxxxxxx",,,,
"ipmi","root","yyyyyyyy",,,,

OK. That sounds OK, but I've walked through setting up xcat based on
instructions at :
https://sourceforge.net/p/xcat/wiki/Cluster_Name_Resolution/#specifying-additional-network-interfaces-for-cluster-nodes
and only gotten as far as the instructions to run "makedns -n". This is where
I get the:
Error: Unsupported request
So "makedhcp" has not yet been run. So, what is likely to be causing the
"Unsupported request"? What should I be looking at?
Sincerely,

xcat_key is used to authorize who can change the dns server. This key is
generated when you run 'makedhcp -n'.

make sure these three attributres are defined in the xCAT site table (tabdump
site):
1)forwarders
2)domain
3)nameservers
and also check the networks table, the net and mask attributes needs to define.
the xcat_key will get it from passwd table:
]# tabdump passwd
#key,username,password,cryptmethod,authdomain,comments,disable
"omapi","xcat_key","QjV0UG5vM2NXamZtVUJncEszejgzMUZSNnRXRTU2Sjk=",,,,

Subject: [xcat-user] xcat_key and DNS Configuration
I'm trying to walk through the DNS configuration from documentation on a brand
new xcat environment. I need some help on a few things.
Lets start at the beginning. The prod environment I have already has an xcat
key. But I'm trying to build a new test environment that will be a model for
implementing a brand new xcat production environment when the new hardware gets
installed. I tried walking through the documentation and ran into a snag. Every
time I tried to do a makedns, whether with or without the "-n" parameter, I get:
Error: Unsupported request
This is usually a pretty good indication that something is amiss. So I'm trying
to figure out what is wrong. Eventually, this led me to there being a potential
problem with /etc/named.conf. So I figure I can steal a good bit of it from my
prod environment, but the one thing I'm confused about is "xcat_key". Do I need
an "xcat_key"? Where does it come from? How do I get it? I don't have one in my
passwd table in xcat in the test environment, but there is one in prod. So I
know it was useful there. What do I need to do to get one?
Sincerely,
John W. Hosie III
