Hi Mark,

Yes i set the password and checked with *tabdump passwd | grep ipmi* command.

I rerun the nodeset command for the related computenode and set rootpw without encryption and it worked. Probably i made a typing mistake on first nodeset command.

Now i have a post installation loop and checking the archive messages :)

Best Regards.

Firat,

Did you set the compute node password as described here (first bullet under #1):

Subject: [xcat-user] kickstart error
------------------------------------------------------------------------



Hi everybody,

*Version 2.13.4*

*OS Oracle Lİnux 6.9*

*Server Oracle sunfire X4170M2*

This is my first xcat day so sorry if my question is noobish.

I set up master node and try to provision my first compute node. Booting process starts on compute node but then i get kickstart error.

line 127 A single argument is expected for rootpw command

[root@xcatmn xcat]# cat /tmp/osimage.stanza
# <xCAT data object stanza file>

rhels6-x86_64-install-compute:
    objtype=osimage
    imagetype=linux
    osarch=x86_64
    osdistroname=rhels6-x86_64
    osname=Linux
    osvers=rhels6
    otherpkgdir=/install/post/otherpkgs/rhels6/x86_64
    pkgdir=/install/rhels6/x86_64
pkglist=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/rh/compute.rhels6.x86_64.pkglist
    profile=compute
    provmethod=install
*template=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/rh/compute.rhels6.x86_64.tmpl*

i check the file */opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/rh/compute.rhels6.x86_64.tmpl *

118 # To generate an encrypted root password use:
119 #
120 # perl -e 'print crypt("blah","Xa") . "\n";'p
121 # openssl passwd -apr1 -salt xxxxxxxx password
122 #
123 # where "blah" is your root password.
124 #
125 #rootpw --iscrypted *********
126 #rootpw XaLGAVe1C41x2 --iscrypted
127 rootpw --iscrypted $6$GkVC6JaLB8MiFJvzEx8uTEGOaKFqe*****L6VeT/vdTK8CC******iqiaB/lMUlK******sQL.

eventhough i change this file i get the same error and this was the only image in the xcat

*It didn't accept oracle linux iso name so i changed it with rhels6

is it an error related with Oracle Linux support or i am missing something else?
Best Regards
