Check /etc/resolv.conf and see that it has a line for your MN and cluster search cluster.com nameserver 10.2.0.100
The domain should match, site.domain and nameserver should match site.nameserver. service xcatd stop ps -ef | grep xcatd - kill any hung processes service xcatd start makedns -n should create everything new In /var/lib/named you should not only have the db.x.x.x file but also a db.x.x.x.jnl file. It is binary and where all the important information is now kept. Lissa K. Valletta 2-3/T12 Poughkeepsie, NY 12601 (tie 293) 433-3102 From: Douglas Myers/Schaumburg/IBM@IBMUS To: xCAT Users Mailing list <[email protected]> Date: 11/11/2011 05:58 PM Subject: [xcat-user] ddns problem Running SLES11 sp1 master on X86_64, xCAT 2.6.8 upgraded from 2.5.2 via zypper. While most cluster actions seem to be working ok, when we added a new node and tried to run makedns it runs thru the /etc/hosts entries then we get: Getting reverse zones, this may take several minutes in scaling cluster. Completed getting reverse zones. Updating zones. Completed updating zones. Restarting named Restarting named complete Updating DNS records, this may take several minutes in scaling cluster. Error: Failure encountered updating .event.ibm.com., error was REFUSED Error: Failure encountered updating 180.42.9.IN-ADDR.ARPA., error was REFUSED Error: Failure encountered updating 10.IN-ADDR.ARPA., error was REFUSED Completed updating DNS records. DNS setup is completed And the db files are essentially empty, jsut the header info no names or reverses. Looking into the docs I see that in 2.6.2 there was a switch to ddns.pm for makedns, something seems to have gone badly on our update from 2.5 to 2.6, so I have two problems: 1) how do I fix this cluster? 2) how do I avoid this when updating my other clusters? _________________________________ Douglas Myers, IBM Special Events _________________________________ "It's not an opportunity if it doesn't scare you a little bit" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ xCAT-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xcat-user ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ xCAT-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xcat-user
