Yes, yum is installed:

[root@xcat-comp08 ~]# rpm -qa |  grep  -i yum
yum-plugin-fastestmirror-1.1.31-53.el7.noarch
yum-metadata-parser-1.1.4-10.el7.x86_64
yum-3.4.3-167.el7.centos.noarch


When trying to install manually on the compute node, the yum command fails
due to trying to fetch the CentOS internet repositories while there is no
internet access on the compute node:

 One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown),
 and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
 safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:

     1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the
problem.

     2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a
working
        upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer
        distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the
        packages for the previous distribution release still work).

     3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled
            yum --disablerepo=<repoid> ...

     4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default.
Yum
        will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it
        again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage:

            yum-config-manager --disable <repoid>
        or
            subscription-manager repos --disable=<repoid>

     5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is
unavailable.
        Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most
commands,
        so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be
much
        slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a
nice
        compromise:

            yum-config-manager --save
--setopt=<repoid>.skip_if_unavailable=true

Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base/7/x86_64



Also it is strange that "yum repolist" show the status of the xCAT repos to
be "enabled: 0" although in the .repo files it is "enabled=1"

[root@xcat-comp08 ~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/xCAT-otherpkgs0.repo
[xcat-otherpkgs0]
