I have read here https://github.com/xcat2/xcat-core/issues/5673: “…All supported scenario are listed here<http://xcat-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/advanced/sysclone/sysclone.html#list-of-supported-arch-and-os> and all development environments based on physical machine, NOT support virtual machine" So, is it possible that a VMware virtual server acts as xCAT management server, managing physical servers (clients) ?
