Ok.
I did not find the libaio package in my distribution what I found was
this:
"libao2-0.8.5-4mdk.i586.rpm"
Is this the same package you were referring to?
Regarding the use of a fully qualified hostname (marsu.oscardomain in
my case). I did that and then I ran the oscar installation program
again, but step 8 still cannot be completed. Should I uninstall oscar
first, before running the command "./install_cluster eth1"?.
thanks.

It also appears you are missing the libaio package which is a
prerequisite and is probably on the distribution CDs (and therefore
probably in your /tftpboot directory already). This has been
popping up a fair bit lately, so I am not sure why we didn't see it
in beta testing. You may be using a different setup than the
testers for Mandrivia. We should probably post the testing matrix,
including distro and used package sets where applicable.

OSCAR requires a fully qualified domain name for the head node
(which it then uses to name the rest of the nodes). It does not
have to be a "real" domain name as long as you are on a local
subnet, where the names are not important to anyone else. What I
usually do is use oscarhead.oscardomain for example, which isn't
"legal" but satisfies OSCAR. You can make it the domain for your
university as well, whatever you like. Like I said, it is only for
your local DNS on your cluster anyway, so it shouldn't cause anyone
else any problems.
So in your case you would need defined (at the lest in /etc/hosts,
probably could do this with "hostname" also)
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
192.168.0.1 marsu marsu.oscardomain
Then oscar would add the later nodes as
192.168.0.2 oscarnode01.oscardomain
I am not certain where the problem comes in when you do not have
the domain name, but I know that has been in the docs for a long
time, so I assume it breaks something if it is not there :)

Hi
I logged in the client node as root. Both the loopback device and
the network adapter (eth0) are active.
I am sending a "gzipped" file of the installation log. I just have
one since I started over from the installation of the mandriva in
the server.
Anywau, there is one detail I am not completely confident about. It
is related to the hosts definitions. Before I started the OSCAR
installation I defined the host name using the command "Hostname"
as root. But, I did not specify any hostname during the
configuration of the network interfaces. After, OSCAR was
installed, I got these hostnames:
IP address Hostname
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.0.1 marsu (this is the name I specify with the hostname
command)
192.168.0.2 oscarnode01.oscardomain (this was specified be the
OSCAR installation program)
regards.

You can try to log in, but only root will probably work. You
don't need to log into the client nodes to complete setup, I was
just not sure where you were exactly.
You could log in to the node and check to see that the network
card is set up properly (using "ifconfig"). I suspect that only
the loopback device will be active and not "eth0" (or whichever
adapter you chose when you ran "oscar_install").
If this is not the case, please go into your oscar install
directory (probably /opt/oscar) and do:
tar czvf logs.tgz oscar_install.*
and send the zip file that makes.

Hello.
Yes, I wanted mandriva 2006 on the client node and I think that is
what I got. After the image was installed the client rebooted
itself and I got the following in its screen:
"Mandriva Linux release 2006.0 (Official) for i586
Kernel 2.6.12-12mdksmp on a Dual-processor i686 / tty1
oscarnode01 login: "
Should I login in the client node?. which login name should I use?.
Thanks!

I hope you want mandrivia 2006 on the client node when you are

Did the client node get imaged, and then boot successfully to a
mandrivia text login prompt?
If the client node has not been successfully imaged, and the
"Complete Cluster Setup" step run, then the tests will not succeed.
If this sounds familiar, please attach any oscarinstall.log files
in your /opt/oscar directory, preferably compressed.

Hello.
I am trying to use OSCAR 5.0 with Mandriva 2006 in order to
cluster two computers. The server node has Mandriva 2006
installed whereas the client has windows XP. I managed to run the
cluster installation program until to step 7, "Complete Cluster
Setup", without any apparent problem. However, it was not
possible to complete step 8, "Test Cluster Setup". This is the
output I got:
" "

Maui service check:maui [PASSED]
TORQUE node check [PASSED]

SSH server -- node
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
e01.oscardomain's password:
" "
So, besides the "FAILED" message in line 5 of the output, I was
asked for a password (last line). I have not idea which password
I should use. Moreover, during the installation of OSCAR you are
not required to use any password!.
Could somebody tell me what the problem might be?
