We are trying to install OSCAR 4.1 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 update 3.
After several fits and starts, we have progressed to step 7 ("Complete
Cluster Setup"). The client installation fails during this step due to
problems with starting and stopping ntpd on the cluster server.
Is there a way to prevent the OSCAR installation wizard from restarting
ntpd on the cluster server during step 7?
Here is what happens with ntp during this step:
- ntpd is stopped on the server
- ntpdate runs on the server
- ntpd is started on the server
- ntpd is stopped on the client(s)
- ntpdate runs on the client(s) which FAILs
- ntpd is started on the client(s)
The client ntpdate failure causes step 7 to fail.
The failure happens because ntpd on the server does not accept ntp
connections for several minutes (my testing shows anywhere between three
and ten minutes) after startup. (I can provide a summary of the test
along with logs of a test if this would be helpful.)
Thanks!
