Second, add rpm names (without version number) into
/install/custom/install/<ostype>/profile.otherpkgs.pkglist
where <profile> is defined in the I<nodetype> table. <ostype> is the operating system name without the version number. The following os types are recognized by xCAT.

windows
Third, type:
updatenode <noderange> otherpkgs
