Hey folks,
I've got an existing RHEL5 / CentOS5 cluster running 6.2u3.
I have an Ubuntu box running 13.04, and it has 6.2u5 in the apt
repositories. I think I have it configured properly and added
properly to the cluster but there is a communication error. On the
new Ubuntu node I do "qstat -f" and after about a minute it times out
with :
error: failed receiving gdi request response for mid=1 (got syncron
message receive timeout error).
So I google that and after a bit of sifting I find 2 main causes.
(1) "some kind of NFS problem" (but I can't find details on just what)
(2) "Grid Engine is incompatible between dot releases"
Technically 6.2u3 is the same dot release as 6.2u5
I'd rather not upgrade the 6.2u3 nodes to 6.2u5 at this point because
the plan is to wipe them completely and install Ubuntu. But I want to
do that in a staged fashion and convert 1 node at a time, all the
while keeping them all in the cluster.
Thoughts?
thanks,
-Alan
