if you add master ip address to the /etc/resolv.conf,  the hostname should
be resolved.

did u run `rinstall` again after you clean up dhcp lease on the prod
cluster?

can u show me node definition here?  and master/domain/dhcpinterface on the
site table?

if you can run rinstall,  the mac address should be set and should not get
to the dodiscover phase.
how did u pull the node out from prod cluster to this new server?  same ip
address/hostname, right?

Thanks,
Casandra Qiu

Hi Casandra

nslookup works for the hostname
but it doesn’t for the IP address

could this be a problem?

this is example of detect_dhcpd output:

can u check your hostname/ip address?

what's the output from nslookup?

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>

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.
