Re: [xcat-user] Having issues with updates

[Song BJ Yang]

Hi,

 

`sleep 36500d` means there are fatal error in the post install phase, and xcat make the installer stop there for further field debug.

 

You can search `sleep 36500d` in `/install/autoinst/<node>` on MN for the possible fatal errors and relevant log messages that can make the post-installation phase run into such situation.

 

You can find out the root cause with either of the following hints:

 

1. look into `/var/log/xcat/computes.log` on MN for the fatal error log messages 

2. if you can ssh to the installer, look into /mnt/sysimage/var/log/xcat/xcat.log inside installer for the fatal error log messages 

3. if you cannot ssh the installer, you can `rinstall <cn> boot` to reboot the node , and look into /var/log/xcat/xcat.log for the fatal error log messages

I've added an update repo to my template

 

lsdef shows this:

 

pkgdir=/install/rhels7.5/x86_64,/install/updates/rhels7.5/x86_64/

 

I saw during install that it's creating initramfs for kernel-3.10.0-957

 

But now with 'ps -ef' i'm seeing a process of sleep 36500d and the install is not completing.

 

Where did I go wrong?
