Expected Behavior

ova-step1 works fine with no error when deploying more than 1 node

Actual Behavior

run ova-step1: errors when trying to copy /var/cache/emc/ecs-install/cache.torrent and /var/cache/emc/ecs-install/os_CentOS_7/package_cache.tgz to all nodes

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Create the install node using dell-ecsce-3.6.2.0-install-node.ova
  2. Clone the created VM one time (to have 2 nodes)
  3. start the 2 VMs and set the IP addresses
  4. On install node run videploy and feed the file with the two IP addresses (1st as install node and member, 2nd as member): this works fine
  5. run ova-step1

It seems that some files necessary for the installation and configuration of member nodes are not present in the OVA.

I ran into this same exact issue today with DELL-ECSCE-3.6.2.0-OVA.ova installing a two node environment.

This looks just like #473
Tried the workaround there and that seems to have worked.

Please try 3.7 OVA.
