It’s more fundamental than xCAT. The _ (underscore) is not allowed in DNS at 
all; xCAT simply follows that rule.

Subject: [xcat-user] xCAT node name invalid characters or hard codelimitations ?

Hi ,Dear
    I setup the xCAT and see below failed info when try to makedns –n ,can 
anybody help to take a look ,thanks 
    
Ignoring line 172.32.44.178 cfdv3_192g_012-bmc cfdv3_192g_012-bmc.cluster  in 
/etc/hosts, names  cfdv3_192g_012-bmc cfdv3_192g_012-bmc.cluster  contain 
invalid characters (valid characters include a through z, numbers and the '-', 
but not '_' 
makedns -n , 
    
    
    [root@mgt ~]# makedns -n
    Ignoring line 172.29.101.6 n05_xcc n05_xcc.cluster  in /etc/hosts, names  
n05_xcc n05_xcc.cluster  contain invalid characters (valid characters include a 
throug                   h z, numbers and the '-', but not '_'
    Handling n01-xcc in /etc/hosts.
    
So question is 

1 : is the ‘_’ not allow to use in the compute name ?
2: is there any way to make it possible to use the ‘_’ in compute name in xCAT ?
