The mkresolvconf script was written to support the Service Node move
function we now support in hiearchical clusters.  It was not written for
basic setup during install.   There was a big change for Name resolutions
from 2.3 to 2.6.   We no longer use bind but have replaced it with ddns.
Could you check you setup based on this documentation:

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/xcat/index.php?title=Cluster_Name_Resolution

IF you note in the doc "The resolv.conf files for the compute nodes will be
created automatically using the "domain" and "nameservers" values set in
the site definition. "     Need to check your site table attributes.

Subject:        [xcat-user] Diskfull nodes and resolv.conf



Hi all,

I am comparing the autoinst files generated between xcat 2.3 and 2.6,
and it appears that at one point (xcat 2.3) the /etc/resolv.conf was
filled in via the "/opt/xcat/sbin/makenamed.conf" file. Looking at the
autoinst files in 2.6, while this file exists the autoinst files being
generated do not contain any entries for placing data in
/etc/resolv.conf. As a result, if I use the "hardeths" script the node
has no DNS information configured.

I did however see that there is now a postscript named "mkresolvconf"
that seems to take care of this. Is this the preferred method now of
configuring a static IP and DNS information on a node (hardeths +
mkresolvconf)?

Thanks!
