We acquired a couple of refurb x3550 M5's and I have been following the
instructions to install but I have hit a stumbling block. Basically the
following command fails
/usr/lpp/mmfs/gui/cli/initgui --xcat <hostname>
giving
[root@gui1 ~]# /usr/lpp/mmfs/gui/cli/initgui --xcat xcat
EFSSG4309C Host "xcat" provided as xCAT host is probably not an xCAT
host, because /opt/xcat/bin/lsxcatd -v cannot be executed.
However that's not accurate
[root@xcat ~]# /opt/xcat/bin/lsxcatd -v
Version 2.16.3 (git commit d1cdf8b35aa5b0bd736796acafd8f051eb07b5bf,
built Tue Dec 7 15:03:13 GMT 2021)
My guess is that the GUI node needs to be able to do passwordless SSH
onto the xcat/confluent server. That is not setup and I can't find any
documentation to say it should be. Noting that passwordless SSH onto the
xcat server has never been configured on our system either for the DSS-G
nodes or any of the compute nodes.
Am I missing something?
JAB.
