Frank,
- Is this Power or x86 arch ? - Is this diskfull or diskless install ? - Do you have your own postbootscripts added to osimage or node definitions or just running default xCAT's "otherpkgs" ? - Have you tried running "updatenode" to see if the same error is reported ?

After the installation completes with no installation errors reported in /var/log/xcat/xcat.log on the node that had been installed and in /var/log/xcat/computes, I see the following message in /var/log/xcat/xcat.log: Fri Aug 13 11:42:42 CEST 2021 [debug]: xcat.deployment.postbootscript: node boot failed, reporting status... Fri Aug 13 11:42:42 CEST 2021 [error]: xcat.deployment.postbootscript: provision completed with error.(plato7) Also, the node is tagged as failed in the node record. Does anyone has an idea what cause this problem, or a hint how I can dig into it. Unfortunately xcatdebugmode=2 don’t work for Sles15.2 as the password set in passwd table for admin user isn’t applied and the procedure to login to the node and run yast manually don’t work. Many thanks for any help.
