I made abstraction of BMC configuration and I didn't use xcat with KVM, the idea is to simulate physical deployment.
 not quite understand this, what is the "mgt" attribute of the node?
 
The problem : the PXE boot works fine until the download of the vmlinuz image and it hangs, and nothing after.
 
what is the "netboot" attribute of the node? if "pxe" does not work, please try "xnba". 
 
can you see the console of the node during provision?

Subject: [xcat-user] Problem deploying compute node, vmlinuz not being downloaded
Date: Wed, Sep 5, 2018 7:41 AM
 
Hi,
 
I am newbie in xcat, and I am trying to deploy my first compute node but without success.
First of all, excuse the statement, but the documentation is a mess (sorry).
 
My lab is pretty simple, I am using VMs for the management node and compute nodes.
I made abstraction of BMC configuration and I didn't use xcat with KVM, the idea is to simulate physical deployment.
 
I am using Centos 7.5 as OS for MN and CN.
 
I boot the compute node manually in PXE boot.
 
The problem : the PXE boot works fine until the download of the vmlinuz image and it hangs, and nothing after.
 
In http access_log I can see the GET of the vmlinuz request, but nothing happen, I waited 10 minutes, and nothing.
 
I tried with wget from another host, and the file vmlinuz can be downloaded without problem.
 
Any ideas?
 
Regards.
