I ran into this issue tonight with the same error messages from si_getclient
running on the server. But for me the problem was simply that the --server ip
option for si_prepareclient on the golden client did not match the ip of the
server that I was running si_getclient on to attempt to retrieve the golden
image.

On my golden client, I was running this manually:

   $ si_prepareclient --server 10.1.12.238 -e /dev/sda --no-uyok

But my server's ip is 10.1.12.244, so obviously, I was getting this error from
si_getclient.
