Re: How to configure a new computing node?
Thanks for all of you for your help. Yes, Greg is right that my networks
were switched. It works now after I switch them back.
Many many thanks,
Lei

Aaron,
Thank you for your reply. I copied some log information as
follows. It looks like the VM was started, but sshd on the VM was
not active. The script looped and waited for half an hour and
failed at the end. The image works fine on existing blades. I
wonder if there is some configuration of VM server I didn't set
correctly for the new node.
Thanks, Lei

RE: Windows 7 SP1 boot hangs
This solution looks very promising. I installed this hotfix and so far, it
doesn't seem to hang anymore. The image has reloaded at least 10 times now
without any problems. Hopefully it's resolved.
Thanks for finding that James.

Maybe it's just a windows thing. They came out with a hotfix for it

But it doesn't explain why sometimes its fast and sometimes it's slow.
Maybe disabling ReadyBoot would help?

Re: How to configure a new computing node?
I am posting this on behalf of Greg Duhon
I have one more suggestion to add. Verify that the networks are not
switched. In other words, is the public network on the private
interface or private network on the public interface. I can't tell
you how many times this one dinged us when we first started using VCL.

If you can't ping your gateway, it's either a network problem,
or a firewall problem.
Try pinging the gateway, and then dumping your arp table
('arp -an'). If you see the mac address for the gateway in
your arp table, it's probably a firewall issue. If the
mac address isn't there, it's a network problem

RE: How to configure a new computing node?
Hi Alex, Thanks for your suggestions! For the image, it works fine when it lauches on virtual hosts on existing nodes. The problem happens when it runs on a new node. I assume the sshd works fine on the image itself. I have set up the ssh key to allow the management node to log in the node successfully. After I log into the new node running VMware, I can see that my network eth0 and eth1 have private and public ip address. However, I found that I cann't ping my gateway from the node. Are there any settings I need to do?

Re: How to configure a new computing node?
Hello, Did you check su - Log in as root for the image you are working on Password: Turn on sshd by typing /etc/init.d/sshd start Got to the /etc/init.d/ then type chkconfig sshd on Have you made sure that you can ssh -i /etc/vcl/vcl.key ? I had this issue with ssh not kicking off before as well and it was a issue with the image itself. Another helpfull command to check would be ssh -vv (IP address) Have you logged into your box running VMware to see if you are getting a public and private ip address?

RE: How to configure a new computing node?
Sorry for asking again. I suspect that the problem may be related to network setting. I don't understand why ssd on VM was not active. Is it possible that the IP address of VM is not correct? Any suggestions/hints would be very much appreciated! Thanks, Lei From: Huang,Lei [lhu...@pvamu.edu] Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2011 10:36 AM To: vcl-user@incubator.apache.org; aaron_pee...@ncsu.edu Subject: Re: How to configure a new computing node? Aaron, Thank you for your reply. I copied some log information as follows. It looks like the VM was started, but sshd on the VM was not active. The script looped and waited for half an hour and failed at the end. The image works fine on existing blades. I wonder if there is some configuration of VM server I didn't set correctly for the new node.
