1. Are you able to ping 10.0.0.20 ? If not run "makehosts os_gold".

2. Has os_gold VM been provisioned with an OS ? If not, do you have an osimage 
definition to be installed on 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
