Mark, thank you for brining this to our attention.
What is the version of xCAT you are running ? "lsxcatd -a"
Have you checked the /var/log/xcat/xcat.log file on the compute node to
see if there are any clues ?
Are there any additional .repo files in the /etc/yum.repo.d/ on the
compute node ?
Even though you showed the table contents for linuximage and osimage, can
you show the output of "lsdef -t osimage compute-install" ?

Subject: [xcat-user] Problems with repos on nodes
I am getting some weird repos created on the nodes at install.
[root@node03 yum.repos.d]# ls xCAT-rhels6.8-computenode-path*
xCAT-rhels6.8-computenode-path0.repo xCAT-rhels6.8-computenode-
path2.repo xCAT-rhels6.8-computenode-path4.repo
xCAT-rhels6.8-computenode-path1.repo xCAT-rhels6.8-computenode-
path3.repo xCAT-rhels6.8-computenode-path5.repo
[root@node03 yum.repos.d]# cat xCAT-rhels6.8-computenode-path* | grep

Now these repos are exactly what I'd expect using the server image and
not the compute-node image:
[root@phoebe postscripts]# cd repos/rhel6.8-server/x86_64/

The node has the right OSVER:
[root@node03 xcatpost]# cat mypostscript | grep OSV
OSVER='rhels6.8-computenode'
export OSVER
and the right ARCH:
[root@node03 xcatpost]# cat mypostscript | grep ARCH
ARCH='x86_64'
export ARCH
[root@phoebe x86_64]# lsdef node03

The linuximage table is correct:
"compute-
install","/install/custom/nodes/nodes.tmpl",,,"/install/custom/nodes/no
des.pkglist","/install/rhels6.8-
computenode/x86_64","/install/custom/nodes/nodes.otherpkgs","/install/p
ost/otherpkgs/rhels6.8-computenode/x86_64",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
the osimage table appeears correct:
"compute-install",,"compute","linux",,"install",,"rhels6.8-computenode-
x86_64",,,"Linux","rhels6.8-
computenode","x86_64","/install/custom/nodes/nodes.synclist",,,,,,,
I can't, for the life of me, figure out why it's pulling the repos from
/install/postscripts/repos/rhel6.8-server/x86_64 and not
from /install/postscripts/repos/rhels6.8-computenode and any help would
be appreciated!
