Browse Source 
Fix some formatting errors.  I don't think we need to tell the user how to download xCAT in the advanced sections.

Set Up the Service Nodes for Stateful (Diskful) Installation (optional)
=======================================================================
Set Up the Service Nodes for Stateful (Diskful) Installation
============================================================
Any cluster using statelite compute nodes must use a stateful (diskful) service
nodes.
Any cluster using statelite compute nodes must use a stateful (diskful) service nodes.
Note: If you are using diskless service nodes, go to
:ref:`setup_service_node_stateless_label`.
**Note: All xCAT service nodes must be at the exact same xCAT version as the xCAT Management Node**. Copy the files to the Management Node (MN) and untar them in the appropriate sub-directory of ``/install/post/otherpkgs``
First, go to the `Download_xCAT <http://localhost/fake_todo>`_ site and
download the level of the xCAT tarball you desire. Then go to
http://localhost/fake_todo and get the latest xCAT dependency tarball.
**Note: All xCAT service nodes must be at the exact same xCAT version as the
xCAT Management Node**. Copy the files to the Management Node (MN) and untar
them in the appropriate sub-directory of ``/install/post/otherpkgs``
**Note for the appropriate directory below, check the
``otherpkgdir=/install/post/otherpkgs/rhels7/x86_64`` attribute of the
osimage defined for the servicenode.**
**Note for the appropriate directory below, check the ``otherpkgdir=/install/post/otherpkgs/rhels7/x86_64`` attribute of the osimage defined for the servicenode.**
For example, for osimage rhels7-x86_64-install-service ::
mkdir -p /install/post/otherpkgs/**rhels7**/x86_64/xcat
cd /install/post/otherpkgs/**rhels7**/x86_64/xcat
tar jxvf core-rpms-snap.tar.bz2
tar jxvf xcat-dep-*.tar.bz2
mkdir -p /install/post/otherpkgs/**rhels7**/x86_64/xcat
cd /install/post/otherpkgs/**rhels7**/x86_64/xcat
tar jxvf core-rpms-snap.tar.bz2
tar jxvf xcat-dep-*.tar.bz2
Next, add rpm names into your own version of
service.<osver>.<arch>.otherpkgs.pkglist file. In most cases, you can find an
initial copy of this file under /opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/<platform> . If
not, copy one from a similar platform.
