Thanks for the data, Andre.
You can ignore that "xcatprobe" error. I think you are getting it because format of the "ip -4 a" is slightly different on SLES11 than what we expect on SLES12 and later. Since SLES11 is quite old, we are not planning on making "xcatprobe" changes to work with the output of "ip -4 a" on SLES11.

We try to use it at SLES11SP3.. But we currently want to find out if we can change some things at out model office to have a box free to install a manual SLES12 there and go ahead with the latest xcat version then.
