hi Mark,

let me explain a bit more.  Sorry for not being detailed earlier in my
response.

the node is part of a ROCKS cluster, it is physically( router/switch setup
related) separated from xcat setup/cluster

(here is its config)
[root@dfs-4-1 ~]# ifconfig p6p1
p6p1: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        inet 10.1.129.24  netmask 255.255.0.0  broadcast 10.1.255.255

        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

My current xcat mgmt. setup is from a

I need to bring the node from 10.1.129.x to some 10.240.58.x address.  As
is - the node is not pingable from xcat mgmt node.

the node is a bare metal ( Dell R series ).

Current version of xcat is: 2.16.1

[root@hpc3-xcat-1 system-files]# rpm -qa |grep -i xcat
xCAT-2.16-snap202006161607.x86_64

thanks.
