#4505 rnetboot returns an error

[Dominik Szlosarczyk]

Hello xCAT-Team,

I encountered following problem after using rnetboot on the management node:

# rnetboot xCATnode01
Node not defined in 'networks' database
Error: hmc plugin bug, pid 10234, process description: 'xCATd SSL: rnetboot to xCATnode01 for root@localhost: hmc instance' with error 'Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at /opt/xcat/lib/perl/xCAT/PPC.pm line 791, <$parfd> line 1.
' while trying to fulfill request for the following nodes: xCATnode01

# tabdump networks
#netname,net,mask,mgtifname,gateway,dhcpserver,tftpserver,nameservers,ntpservers,logservers,dynamicrange,staticrange,staticrangeincrement,nodehostname,ddnsdomain,vlanid,domain,comments,disable

I am using Power7 LPARs managed by a HMC. The management node is an LPAR too.

May you help me?

Thank you in advance & regards,

Can you show us the output of
lsdef -l xCATnode01

and what does name resolution return as the IP address for xCATnode01?
ping xCATnode01
or
nslookup xCATnode01

Thank you for the fast answer.

The error doesn't exist any more.
I wrote the xcat nodes down in a wrong way in /etc/hosts.

Ticket can be closed.

Best regards,
Dominik
