 The B<xcatsetup> command reads the specified config file that contains general information about the cluster being set up,
 and naming conventions and IP addresses that you want to use.  It then defines the basic objects in the xCAT database
 representing this cluster configuration.  The B<xcatsetup> command prepares the database for the step of discovering

 The B<xcatsetup> command is intended as a quick way to fill out the database for a cluster that has very regular
 naming patterns.  The only thing is done is fill in database attributes.  If your cluster does not follow consistent
