When xCAT installs rhel6 on a physical machine with multiple NICs, You need to manually select the NIC. xcatrhel6Problem description Today, rhel5 is successfully installed on a dual-nic physical machine. However, when installing rhel6, you cannot automatically select the NIC for installation. A window will pop up asking you to choose whether to use em1 or em2.Cause The reason is that I used the statement similar to the following when adding nodes. A

Next to several Xcat blogs, assuming that we have added the operating system and set the necessary properties, we now need to remotely control the physical machine using IPMI to install the operating system with the network boot.# Settings Use IPMI nodech Reference: http://blog.csdn.net/kongxx/article/details/44033623Please indicate this address in the form of a link .This address: http://blog.csdn.net/kongxx/article/details/44181711XCAT installing th
