Intro

By default, a node-installer boots from the software image on the head node via the network.


Optionally, the node-installer installs a boot record on the local drive if the installbootrecord property of the node configuration or node category is set to on, so that the next boot can be from the local drive.

NOTE; If set to PXE boot off network first on the compute hardware then this is pointless!

Setup

# The cmsh equivalents are commands like:
cmsh -c "device use node001; set installbootrecord yes; commit" 

# or
cmsh -c "category use default; set installbootrecord yes; commit"

Another NOTE; I had to do a full re-install to get this to work, reboot wasnt enough.
