RH86 /dev/null permissions incorrect in diskless image after boot.
I have 2 RH84 management nodes c90csm02 and c685csm05. I have checked in several RH86 DL images and when they boot the permissions on /dev/null are incorrect. Show ls -l /dev/null -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul 21 12:11 /dev/null Should be ls -ltra /dev/null crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 3 Jul 19 21:42 /dev/null The most common problem seen is general users get permission denied when ssh'ing to a node. I fix this by running "rm -f /dev/null; mknod -m 666 /dev/null c 1 3" on the nodes after boot

Genned latest ist.redhat.8.6.netboot.CORAL.DL and ist.redhat.8.5.netboot.container.DL and booted. All had the same result.
This is fixed in 2.16.4 check: https://github.com/xcat2/xcat-core/pull/7080
@markprez I agree with @Obihoernchen's assessment. Thank you, @Obihoernchen.
