This is what I see when doing the rinstall

Hi Casandra

Thanks for the reply,

Ran those commands you
And also did a nodepurge cloud001 on the prod server

And It’s still picking up the prod servers address when doing an rinstall (

did u run this command on XX.XX.X.XXX server?
makedhcp -d nodename

and two more command to clean up from prod cluster, you should remove the
node definition too, at lease need to remove mac address.
makedns -d nodename
makegocons -d nodename


then on the new test cluster:
makedns nodename
makegocons nodename
makedhcp nodename
nslookup nodename <<<<<--- make sure it return correct address

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

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.

            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
