I have observed the issue due to xcat environment variables are not set. Command worked after configuring environment variables. Can we use xcat environment variables in .bashrc file?

[samveen]

@abhishek-sa1 That is usually the case for me. I set up environment variables via ~/.bashrc

[Obihoernchen]

Do you mean xcat environment variables defined in /etc/profile.d/xcat.sh ?

[abhishek-sa1]

Yes..commands worked after setting envirornment variables
