Hi Vinesh,The fc-10-x86_64.xml goes in your /opt/oscar/share/package_sets/Default directory where you will see the rest of the xml files and the fc-10-x86_64.rpmlist goes in /opt/oscar/oscarsamples directory and if you are using SATA disks selsect scsi.disk for your client image on your gui at that point i think it is set up network step or previous. Also in the gui box before building oscar image in the top menu slot scroll to the right and add ;/tftpboot/oscar/fc-10-x86_64 after the url! You can get the rpms here : Do mkdir -p /tftpboot/oscar/common-rpms and mkdir -p /tftpboot/oscar/fc-10-x86_64 and mkdir -p /tftpboot/distro/fedora-10-x86_64 and a file with the url of a fedora distro in /tftpboot/distro/fedora-10-x86_64.url file ar root ! https://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/svn/oscar/tmp/rpms/ Download these and store them in /tftpboot/oscar/common-rpms and /tftpboot/oscar/fc-10-x86_64. You will also need the two attached files fc-10-x86_64.xml and fc-10-x86_64.rpmlist in fc10.tar! I have attached them to this email For fc-10 they have not added support yet to the trunk. So you will have to do it manually. Download the packages from the url i gave you and also you will need per-Qt from fc-9-x86_64 so download that too in a different directory like //home/user/Dowload and install it from there with rpm -ivh etc. Also install all the base packages in fc-10-x86_64 to form /opt/oscar. After you create the oscarimage. Manually install c3-4 , sync-files( you might have to force this install by rpm -iv --force ), and env-switcher and open-ssh from the svn i gave you either the common-rpms or fc-10-x86_64 dir in /tftpboot/oscar dir BEFORE you image your clients! Also you might want to use a trick i use Store all the network information of your cluster :ifcfg-eth0, ifcfg-eth1 etc in subdirectories in a directory on you fc10 installatiion Like if you call your cluster wulf and wulf001 is your first client node then store all the network files like ifcfg-???? in wulf001 subdir in say /root/wulf dir and the cp -r wulf to var/lib/systemimager/images/oscarimage/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. Also modify the systemconfig.conf in your /var/lib/systemimager/images/oscarimage/etc/systemconfig/systemconfig.conf on the head node as i told you before! When you image your client your network info will be on your clients /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/wulf/wulf001 for example directory for you to cp * /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts from that ../wulf/wulf001 dir. Also when you create the client image oscarimage on your headnode set it to dhcp and shutdown and also chmod +x all the scripts in /var/lib/systemimager/scripts/post-install Also you may have to modify the boot dir from /var/lib/tftpboot to /tftpboot in the file tftp in /etc/xinetd.d! Also restart service xinetd by service xinetd restart Also after you image your clients remember that udev controls automatically for multiple nics which is eth0, eth1 etc so afeter your client node installs and shuts down reboot it and go into bios and do not boot from network as it iwill reinstall osacrimage(it still is buggy!) but set it to ininstall from harddrive in your "BOOT" menus of your bios. Once you boot your client login as root with your head node password and modify /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file to the correct eth setting in your clients /etc/sysconfig/network-scrpts dir! You can also do this for your head node also do chkconfig --level 35 network on to set the network on and reboot!
Happy Clustering! Allan Menezes
