I'm attempting to get as much done within the correct xCAT framework as
possible.

I created node definitions.

Then booted nodes into the genesis kernel for discovery.

Then started associating nodes with a script that looks in the
discoverydata table, finds the mac, then tells xCAT which node it is.

So, each node has this data in the definition:
bmc=192.168.3.81
    bmcpassword=calvin
    bmcusername=root
    chain=runcmd=bmcsetup
    cons=ipmi
    mgt=ipmi

However, when install is complete, the ipmi details are not set.

If I try to manually run the  bmcsetup script on a node, it seems to be
stuck in a loop doing getipmi.

Am I missing a step somewhere?

These are Dell R640 servers.

Thanks in advance.
