( https://xcat-docs.readthedocs.io/en/stable/advanced/probe/osdeploy.html) It should print out steps of the provisioning process and perhaps will point you to the step that takes longer than it should.

Often needs to rpower again. If each computing node takes 4-5 minutes, how long does it take for large number of computing nodes or at least what is the maximum expected time. I have a single copy of the image in the master node from where netboot copies for a diskless deployment. Do we need to split the number of nodes to be booted at a time, just for the limitation of the speed of the copy process. Any pointer to fix the problem would be greatly appreciated.
