Hi Nate,
Many thanks for the clarification and sorry for the my delayed response.
Here’s the code snipplet I use in a postscript to enable and start various
third – party
software via system. The snipplet will be executed first:
# Set hostname
myDomain=$(grep '^domain' /etc/resolv.conf | sed
's/^domain[[:space:]]\+\(.*\)/\1/')
if [ "${myDomain}" = '' ] ; then
echo "ERROR: Can't determine DNS domain from /etc/resolv.conf"
else
NODE="${NODE}.${myDomain}"
fi
hostnamectl set-hostname $NODE
Prerequiste to set the FQHN is that /etc/resolv.conf contains a domain – config
line and will be
syncned before executing the script containing the code - snipplet. Otherwise
only the short hostname
will be used, which worked for my set-up, too.
Cheers,
-Frank

Hi Frank,
After some investigation, we think this is still a problem in the most recent
release (2.15.1). Using a postbootscript to set /etc/hostname is probably the
best short term solution.
Feel free to open an issue to https://github.com/xcat2/xcat-core if you would
like us to try to investigate a better long term solution.
Also, can you share the contents of your postbootscript with the mailing list
for the benefit of others that might encounter this problem?
Thanks,
Nate

Hi all,
The problem appeared, because xCAT didn’t replace the string
‘linux.localdomain’ in /etc/hostname with the correct hostname of the node.
This lead to the boot problems (/etc/nsswitch.conf is configured to use ldap).
Once I set the hostname via a postboot – script the problem is gone.
Is this a bug for the current version, (too)?
Cheers,
-Frank

Subject: [xcat-user] Can't boot from localdisk
Hello,
I’m using xCAT 2.15.
After a successful installation with sles12.4 the node (dell R640) fails to boot
from localdisk (see console log below). Does anyone has an idea about the
error message from gPXE and how to workaround or solve it? Many thanks in
advance.
Cheers,
-Frank Heckes
