The xcat server run centos 7.3. I can provision centos 6 very well. Are there any tricks or parameters to tune in order for centos 7 to provision. The last line displayed is Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/C0A81802 ok. Troublshooting by using the command - xcatprobe osdeploy -n xcat-client shows "stop at stage 'download_kickstart'" Seems it fails when it attempts to download the kickstart file. Any ideas The configurations for the xcat server below -Xcat is installed perfectly well according to xcatprobe.
