Hello Kevin.

I really appreciate your approach. Could you please give me any advice to make 
sure about the network problem. Because I have already installed one server 
with the same image via xcat without any problem.

Kind regards and thank you in advanced for your reply.

I have seen this error in a non-xcat context; it means that dracut couldn't 
find the kernel to load the next phase of the installation (anaconda). At least 
in my case, there was a problem with the network configuration. Don't get 
misled here - it's entirely possible that the network configuration initially 
works when it comes from PXE, but the one dracut sees doesn't (dracut's network 
configuration comes from the kernel command line, I believe).

Hello guys.

Please help me to fix or figure out why the xcat deployment fails in this blade 
server, I am provisioning a centos 8.2 image with xcat, in another server it 
install successful but in this one I got this message related with Dracut 
timeout error (see attachment). When I install by using the dvd iso image I do 
not have any problem during the installation process.

I am using the xcat version 2.16.1 because it is a requirement to use openhpc 
v2.0. This server is HP ProLiant BL460c G7.










Kind regards.
