[xcat-user] rinstall fails after update to 2.13.5

[Dr. Markus Hillenbrand]

Hi,

After updating to xCAT 2.13.5, the command rinstall fails with an error
message:

***@hpcmanage2 [~] rinstall node201
Error: Invalid argument: ''
Usage:
rinstall <noderange> [boot | shell | runcmd=bmcsetup]
[runimage=<task>] [-c|--console] [-u|--uefimode] [-V|--verbose]
rinstall <noderange> [osimage=<imagename> | <imagename>]
[--ignorekernelchk] [-c|--console] [-u|--uefimode] [-V|--verbose]
rinstall [-h|--help|-v|--version]

What can I do?
An RPM downgrade (RHEL 6.9) is not possible.



Best regards,

Markus Hillenbrand

Can we add some tests, so that this doesn’t happen, this is one of the main commands that everyone would use

Regards,
Arif

Hi, Markus

This is an issue, have been fixed. And will be included in 2.13.6 officially.
For work around, pls run rinstall with corresponding options.

Thx!
