I have tried R:: as you can see in my original mail. But it is not working at all...

You can set the kernel parameter with R:: in addkcmdline before the OS
deployment, so during the OS deployment the kernel parameter will be
added to boot parameter persistently.

But note that R:: means for boot only. If you want a kernel parameter to
be applied for both os deployment and booting, the kernel parameter
needs be specified twice in the addkcmdline: one with R::, one without.

Thanks

    Subject: [xcat-user] Persistent addkcmdline
    Date: Mon, May 2, 2016 11:10 PM

    Hi,

    I have a node that uses an old CCISS controller that has no driver
    support in EL7.2 any more. SO I am setting
    hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1 and hpsa.hpsa_simple_mode=1 and anaconda enables
    the controller and installs the operating system.

    Unfortunately, after the final reboot, the kernel parameters are not set
    permanently. So I have added them a second time with the R:: prefix, but
    this does not help. How can I make them permanent without manually added
    them in a postscript?

    Additionally, I have seen that addkcmdline set in node, group and
    osimage are not merged. Instead node ranks out group, and group ranks
    out osimage. Is this intended or can I somehow enable combining all
    addkcmdline settings somehow?
