[xcat-user] node comes up with centos image

[Siddharth Tiwari]

Hi team,

I am using Ubuntu image to build a node, but everytime it comes up with centos image (which is also one of the distros )


here is the definition of the node:-


[***@mgmt OS]# lsdef n002

Object name: n002

arch=x86_64

currchain=boot

currstate=boot

groups=gpu,all

initrd=xcat/osimage/ubuntu14.04.5-x86_64-install-compute/initrd.img

interface=eth0

ip=192.168.0.102

Here is the content of osimage

[***@mgmt OS]# lsdef -t osimage

ubuntu14.04.5-x86_64-install-service (osimage)

ubuntu14.04.5-x86_64-netboot-compute (osimage)

virtimage (osimage)


using Ubuntu compute image to build the node.

Have you done a "nodeset [group or node name] osimage" after changing
the osimage for the node?

Yes, I have done it. I just saw that it stays stuck at the following state

"n002: installing grub-gfxpayload-lists:amd64 0.6"

OK, so it is installing Ubuntu now, I guess you'll need to check the

Good luck!
