Nora,
Is "os_gold" a node name of the "golden client" machine ? Can you do
"lsdef os_gold" ?
To install the systemimager, you pretty much have to follow the steps in
http://xcat-docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/advanced/sysclone/sysclone.html
Basically:
1. On manageament node download xcat-dep tar file: wget
https://xcat.org/files/xcat/xcat-dep/2.x_Linux/xcat-dep-2.13.2-linux.tar.bz2
2. Install systemimager on MN: yum -y install systemimager-server
3. Untar the downloaded file into some directory
4. On management node modify osimage definition that was used to install
"golden client" machine by adding/modifying otherpkglist and otherpkgdir
attributes. otherpkgdir should point to the directory where xcat-dep was
untarred. And otherpkglist should point to an existing file supplied by
xCAT. Choose the one that matches your OS and architecture. The file
should contain something similar to "
xcat/xcat-dep/<os>/<arch>/systemimager-client"
5. On management node run "updatenode <golden client> -S". This should
update the golden client machine with the systemimager packages.

I tried the command on the MN and it gave me the desired output, but for
the golden client I had the following output:
[root@master ~]# xdsh os_gold rpm -qa | grep systemimager
os_gold: ssh: Could not resolve hostname os_gold: Name or service not
known
I think systemimager is not installed on the client how can I install it
and activate it !

Nora,
It sounds like systemimager is not installed on MN or your "golden client"
Do: rpm -qa | grep systemimager on MN, you should see something like:
systemimager-common-4.3.0-0.1.noarch
systemimager-server-4.3.0-0.3.noarch
Then do: xdsh <golden clien> "rpm -qa | grep systemimager" on MN, you
should see something like:
<golden client>: systemimager-client-4.3.0-0.1.noarch
<golden client>: systemimager-common-4.3.0-0.1.noarch

Greetings ;
I have a vagrant environment which contains one master node and another
node called the golden client (both are using Centos 6.5),
I tried to make an image capture of the OS of the Golden client using
xcat and deploy the captured image to another vm created by xcat and KVM
using this tutorial
http://xcat-docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/advanced/sysclone/sysclone.html
unfortunately, I had an error when I execute the command "imgcapture
os_gold -t sysclone -o myimage" which is :
Error: systemimager-client is not installed on the os_gold.
Error: Can not prepare Golden Client on os_gold.
I tried to solve the errors using the suggested solution in the tutorial
but it did not work for me,
it seems that the systemimager-client is not activated and I don't know
how to do that.
