So from the logs, it seems that there were ?3? replies from three different DHCP servers? There should only be one. The makedhcp -d command should be run to delete the MAC->IP mapping on the XX.XX.X.XXX host, if that is the production server. It looks like you got rid of the MAC address from the JJ.JJ.J.JJJ server only.

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. -- ddj On May 27, 2020, at 5:08 AM, John Roche <john.ro...@crick.ac.uk<mailto:john.ro...@crick.ac.uk>> wrote: [A[root@xcat-test ~]# xcatprobe xcatmn -i eth0 [mn]: Checking all xCAT daemons are running...
