Error: Return=1.

Is the --hfi flag no longer needed? I am trying without it to see if that will work. Node is slow to boot....

    We can't execute the CIT cycle this weekend without this command working.

    Got a hold of Norm and he thinks Hua Zhong removed the need to use --hfi. The node boots. The slow boot was because I had bosdebug -D turned on (wasn't my intention). Please update the command and manpage next week.

    Kerrry, As of xCAT 2.6.6 with 5/20 build you no longer require --hfi attribute to be used for any xCAT commands

    Fixed in 2.6.6 to remove --hfi in getmacs/mkdsklsnode manpage
