Hi Bela:
 
This looks like the issue that Jeremy Enos was having...  is your /tmp directory full by any chance?
 
Anyways, I take it when you say you are running RHEL3.1 you mean RHEL3 Update 1.
 
I recommend you give the following unreleased 3.6.3 RPMs a shot:
 
 
I was testing RHEL3u5 and was able to image the node, but systemconfigurator failed to to create the ramdisk for the node sucessfully.  However, if I run systemconfigurator manually on the node again after it failed, it works fine...
 
Please let me know how it goes.
 
Cheers,
 
Bernard

Subject: [Sisuite-users] Error with si_prepareclient

Hi,

 

I am using SI 3.6.2 on a HP Proliant DL360 with two 73G SCSI drives running RHLE 3.1.  The client preparation is started by issuing the command while logged in as root:

 

si_prepapre client –server <server’s IP addr>”

 

The process starts OK up to the following point:

 

>>> tar –C /tmp/.systemimager.0 –cf - .  |   tar –C /tmp/.systemimager.1 –xf  -

tar: ./dev/gpmctl:  socket  ignored

tar: ./dev/log:  socket  ignored

tar: ./linuxrc:  Wrote only 4096 of 10240 bytes

tar: Unexpected EOF in archive

tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

 

then unsuccessfully attempts to remove both .systemimager.0 and .systemimager.1 directories and stops.

 

Does anyone have an idea on what is going on and how to go about fixing this problem?  It is my first attempt at using SystemImager.

 

Thanks,

Bela
