Hello Bai,

Sorry for the late reply. I was a bit busy and had no time to work on
the issue. I'm probably using xCAT 2.13.7 (Output of xcatconfig -v).

xCAT MN is CentOS 7.4. Since the cluster is isolated from the internet,
MN is not running a firewall, so all ports are open. The OS we are
installing is CentOS 7.3 with packages from 1611 iso.

I will watch and debug the process with "xcatd -f" and will provide more
info (and the solution if I can find the problem). Also will check
whether the port 3001 is accessible during install / postscript stage.

Thanks for all the help,

Best regards,

Hakan
