Re: [xcat-user] [External] No cipher suite match with proposed security algorithms

2018-06-12 Thread Rogie Pamintuan

Hi Jarrod,
I have xCAT v2.8.2 (comes with PHPC) which works on my existing idataflex 
nodes. When u say we disabled weaker ciphers in the XCC (BMC/IMM), how easy it 
is to enable? Any workaround? Thanks.

Re: [xcat-user] [External] No cipher suite match with proposed security algorithms

2018-06-12 Thread Jarrod Johnson

What version of xCAT?  Do you have perl-Crypt-Rijndael and perl-Crypt-CBC 
installed?
We disabled the weaker ciphers in the XCC (BMC/IMM), which means you now *must* 
have AES support to speak to the BMC, whereas at one point it was optional.

Hi There,

I’m having issue adding new nodes running on Lenovo 7x02 SR630 HW. No problem 
with existing nodes running on idataflex HW.

Here goes the error:

Other r* commands (i.e rpower, rvitals etc) showing the same issue.

I have updated the HW firmware level for my Lenovo machines but still having

I saw similar issue here before but I can’t see the answer or update. Link as

I can recreate this issue in our test system.   It seems nodeset only
create node file, not node.uefi or node.elilo files.
I will dig into more,

anyway, which xCAT release on your system?

1) DHCP
/etc/dhcp.cscs/dhcpd.conf calls cluster1.conf as following:
...include "/etc/dhcp.cscs/dhcp-conf-dir/cluster1.conf";...
where cluster1.conf (following your example) is now:...option user-
class-identifier code 77 = string;option client-architecture code 93 =
unsigned integer 16;
host server01.cscs.ch {  hardware ethernet 90:E2:BA:A1:56:F4; # 10G
ETH0 NIC  fixed-address 148.187.xxx.xxx;  next-server 148.187.xxx.xxx; 
supersede server.ddns-hostname = "server01";  supersede host-name =
"server01";  if option user-class-identifier = "xNBA" and option
client-architecture = 00:00 {supersede server.always-broadcast =
01;supersede server.filename = "http://${next-
server}/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes/server01";  } else if option user-
class-identifier = "xNBA" and option client-architecture = 00:09 or
option client-architecture = 00:07 {supersede server.filename =
"http://${next-server}/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes/server01.uefi;;  } else
if option client-architecture = 00:07 {supersede server.filename =
"xcat/xnba.efi";  } else if option client-architecture = 00:00
{supersede server.filename = "xcat/xnba.kpxe";  } else
{supersede server.filename = "";  }}...
2) xCAT
The configuration of xCAT is the following:
chain.csv:"server01","boot","boot"hosts.csv:"server01","148.187.xxx
.xxx","server01.cscs.ch",,,ipmi.csv:"server01","148.187.xxx.xxx""ro
ot","",,mac.csv:"server01","ens785f0","90:e2:ba:a1:56:f4",,node
hm.csv:"server01","ipmi","ipmi","kvm",,,nodelist.csv:"server01"
,"all,cscs","booting","06-12-2018
12:14:59",noderes.csv:"server01",,"xnba","148.187.3.22","/tftpb
oot","148.187.3.22""ens785f0"nodetype.csv:"server01","r
hels7.4","x86_64","cscs_storage","rhels7.4-x86_64-install-
cscs_storage",,"osi",,
3) kickstart
As you can see from the xCAT configuration we customized the kickstart
as following:
#  cat /opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/rh/cscs_storage.rhels7.x86_64.tmpl
##cmdline
lang en_US#KICKSTARTNET#
## Where's the source?# nfs --server hostname.of.server or IP --dir
/path/to/RH/CD/image##nfs --server #XCATVAR:INSTALL_NFS# --dir
#XCATVAR:INSTALL_SRC_DIR#
%include /tmp/repos
#device ethernet e100keyboard "us"
## Clear the MBR#zerombr
#this two lines below don't have any effect a possiblity is
removing the qla2xxx module from the initrd file#bootloader --
append="modprobe.blacklist=qla2xxx"#ignoredisk --drives=disk/by-
path/pci-*-fc-*
# Wipe out the disk#clearpart --all --drives=sda
## Customize to fit your needs#
### Partitioning %include /tmp/ignoredisk.ks
#XCAT_PARTITION_START#part /boot/efi --fstype=efi --size=512 --
asprimary --ondisk=sda#No RAID#/boot really significant for this sort
of setup nowadays?part /boot --size 2000 --fstype ext3 --asprimary --
ondisk=sdapart pv.01 --size 1 --grow --ondisk=sdavolgroup local pv.01
--pesize=4096logvol / --fstype=ext4  --vgname=local
--size=1 --name=root_lvlogvol /opt  --fstype=ext4  
--vgname=local--size=2 --name=opt_lvlogvol swap  
--fstype=swap  --vgname=local--size=1 --name=swap_lvlogvol
/tmp  --fstype=ext4  --vgname=local--size=2 
--name=tmp_lvlogvol /var  --fstype=ext4  --vgname=local
--size=2 --name=var_lv#XCAT_PARTITION_END#...
The important thing is to add "part /boot/efi --fstype=efi --size=512
--asprimary --ondisk=sda" otherwise the installation process hangs.
4) tftpboot
As expected the command "nodeset server01 osimage=rhels7.4-x86_64-
install-cscs_storage created the following 3 files:
# cat /tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes/durand01
#!gpxe#bootexit
# cat /tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes/durand01.elilo 
default="xCAT"delay=0
image=/tftpboot/xcat/osimage/rhels7.4-x86_64-install-
cscs_storage/vmlinuz   label="xCAT"   initrd=/tftpboot/xcat/osimage/rhe
ls7.4-x86_64-install-cscs_storage/initrd.img   append="quiet inst.repo=
http://148.187.3.22:80/install/rhels7.4/x86_64 inst.ks=http://148.187.3
.22:80/install/autoinst/durand01 ip=ens785f0:dhcp  BOOTIF=%B"

# cat /tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes/durand01.uefi 
#!gpxechain http://${next-server}/tftpboot/xcat/elilo-x64.efi -C
/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nodes/durand01.elilo
Thank you again,Carmelo

Hi Jeff,
 
Could you check your osimage definition about exlist, pkglist and postinstall?
We do not formal ship compute.SL7.pkglist, we user the same files for rhels7. so could you try to use the rhels7 related files for your osimage? 
 
Here I give you an example for osimage, you can find the right arch files under /opt/xcat/share/xcat/netboot/rh/:
]# lsdef -t osimage rhels7.4-x86_64-statelite-compute -i exlist,pkglist,postinstallObject name: rhels7.4-x86_64-statelite-compute    exlist=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/netboot/rh/compute.rhels7.x86_64.exlist    pkglist=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/netboot/rh/compute.rhels7.x86_64.pkglist    postinstall=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/netboot/rh/compute.rhels7.x86_64.postinstall
 
 
"Failing to install mlx_en", I got the same message when there is no mlx in my system.

Good morning all,
 
I’m still wrestling with a SciLinux 7.4 statelite deployment with xcat 2.13.11.    The dracut hooks don’t seem to be working properly, which is both making it difficult to debug and also probably symptomatic of a larger problem.   Running genimage, a few things have caught my eye.
 
The package list is looking for busybox-anaconda, which doesn’t seem to exist for SciLinux 7.  A bit of poking seems to suggest that it is deprecated, but it’s not clear to me what a suitable replacement might be.  Is there a preferred solution/workaround?
 
The dracut install also is throwing a couple of errors.  Failing to install mlx_en is, I think, benign.  I am also getting this error: “dracut-install: ERROR: installing '/etc/udev/udev.conf'”  which seems like it might be more significant, especially in light of my dracut problems.  However, I don’t know what might be causing this problem, nor how to fix it.
 
Any insight will be latched upon to with unseemly haste,

[xcat-user] SciLinux 7.4 statelite problems

2018-06-12 Thread Jeff Berry

Good morning all,

I'm still wrestling with a SciLinux 7.4 statelite deployment with xcat 2.13.11. 
   The dracut hooks don't seem to be working properly, which is both making it 
difficult to debug and also probably symptomatic of a larger problem.   Running 
genimage, a few things have caught my eye.

The package list is looking for busybox-anaconda, which doesn't seem to exist 
for SciLinux 7.  A bit of poking seems to suggest that it is deprecated, but 
it's not clear to me what a suitable replacement might be.  Is there a 
preferred solution/workaround?

The dracut install also is throwing a couple of errors.  Failing to install 
mlx_en is, I think, benign.  I am also getting this error: "dracut-install: 
ERROR: installing '/etc/udev/udev.conf'"  which seems like it might be more 
significant, especially in light of my dracut problems.  However, I don't know 
what might be causing this problem, nor how to fix it.

Any insight will be latched upon to with unseemly haste,
