Hi ddj,
Yes I’m pulling a few nodes from the prod cluster,
I did makedhcp -d nodename and this sort of helped
It does a pxe boot, but still picks up the prod xcat server address
xcatprobe detect_dhcpd -i <MN interface name> -m <node's mac address>
Server: XX.XX.X.XXX assign IP [XX.XX.X.XXX]. The next server is [XX.XX.X.XXX]!
[INFO] <----- this is the prod xcat server, how
do I remove this??
Server: XX.XX.X.XXX assign IP [ZZ.ZZ.Z.ZZZ]. The next server is [ZZ.ZZ.Z.ZZZ]!
[INFO] <- THIS IS THE NEW TEST XCAT SERVER
Is there any way to remove this, will this help?

When you have two dhcp servers on the same wire/subnet, need to make sure that
the MAC address
is only recognized by one of them. If the "production" server is running xcat,
use makedhcp -d nodename
to get rid of the association over there, and presume (or check, with makedhcp
-q nodename) that it's
registered in your new cluster. My guess is that you pulled out a compute node
from the production cluster
to play with.

try those two command to diagnosis if there are configure issues
xcatprobe xcatmn -i <MN interface name>
xcatprobe detect_dhcpd -i <MN interface name> -m <node's mac address>
Thanks,

How did people set up the dhpc part for doing a pxe boot?

Hi,
I recently build an xcat server
Rpower works
But doing an rinstall, it keeps failing at the PXE boot
I’m doing rinstal <node name> -u
It uses UEFI
I’m starting to pull my hair now on what’s the issue
Here is the error I see when I’m doing an rcons.
Thanks
