If you do net set xcatmaster for your and the node is in a remote network which isn't directly attached to the xCAT server the following error is shown:
[root@xcat ~]# makedhcp <node>
Error: [xcat]: Unable to determine the tftpserver for <node>
This is misleading because tftpserver was set for all networks.
The real issue was the missing xcatmaster attribute.
hi, @Obihoernchen , thanks very much for point this out, the xcatmaster shall be the tftpserver of the compute node, but the message is really misleading.
If you do net set
xcatmaster
for your and the node is in a remote network which isn't directly attached to the xCAT server the following error is shown:This is misleading because
tftpserver
was set for all networks.The real issue was the missing
xcatmaster
attribute.The following code throws this error:
https://github.com/xcat2/xcat-core/blob/master/xCAT-server/lib/xcat/plugins/dhcp.pm#L530-L558
This code looks for
xcatmaster
, nottftpserver
. Therefore, in my opinion the message should includexcatmaster
instead oftftpserver
.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
