So I found out, there is a small bug. When we update the httpport, the changes percolate in the repo address and stuff, but if we go and look into the /install/autoinst/nodename the port doesn't appear and so, the system tries to go to default port which is 80. I will try patching it up, temporary workaround is to hardcode the template so that it has the url in it available, but thats not ideal as while building large hadoop clusters, we might use several different profiles for several different nodes and manual editing is not good.

Hey Team
I am trying to use port other than 80 for httpd. I am aware of httpport key in site, after setting it the I see following:-
Object name: node1
    arch=x86_64
    currchain=boot
    currstate=install centos6.4-x86_64-compute
    groups=all,compute,bigdata
    initrd=xcat/osimage/mycomputeimage/initrd.img
    installnic=eth0
    interface=eth0
    ip=192.168.0.101
    kcmdline=quiet repo=http://mn-physical:81/install/centos6.4/x86_64 ks=http://mn-physical:81/install/autoinst/node1 ksdevice=eth0
    kernel=xcat/osimage/mycomputeimage/vmlinuz
    mac=00:50:56:2D:A6:00
    netboot=pxe
    os=centos6.4
    postbootscripts=otherpkgs
    postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles,setupntp,syslog
    primarynic=eth0
    profile=compute
    provmethod=mycomputeimage
    status=installing
    statustime=07-12-2014 01:10:51
    xcatmaster=mn-physical
But even then the node gives error "Unable to retrieve"  for install image
Please help
