Hi Ling,
Thanks for your help! Here's the information you requested:
[root@mn ~]# xdsh -V
Version 2.6.9 (svn r10986, built Wed Nov 9 04:49:31 EST 2011)
Management node:
[root@mn ~]# df -h /install
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
storage01:/install 47G 6.7G 38G 16% /install
Service node:
[root@service01 ~]# df -h /install
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
storage01:/install 47G 6.7G 38G 16% /install
(Please note that /install/autoinst is symlinked back to /local_autoinst on
each node)
Installloc:
"installloc","storage01:/install",,
I tried following this guide (
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/xcat/index.php?title=Setting_Up_a_Linux_Hierarchical_Cluster#Service_Node_Pools)
but have not been able to make both the management node and the service
node generate an /install/autoinst file who's URL points to themselves.
Note that the guide states:
*Note: the noderes table's xcatmaster, tftpserver,nfsserver attributes
should be blank for any node entry that has the noderes servicenode
attribute set to a pool of service nodes. site table attribute sharedtftp
should be no or 0.
*I have those all set as well, but when set it just complains about
noderes.nfsserver being empty:
[root@mn ~]# nodeset c1n01 install
c1n01: Error: Unable to find requested nfsserver from noderes, with
node=c1n01
Error: Some nodes failed to set up install resources, aborting
c1n01: Error: Unable to find requested nfsserver from noderes, with
node=c1n01
Error: Some nodes failed to set up install resources, aborting
My noderes table:
[root@mn ~]# tabdump noderes
#node,servicenode,netboot,tftpserver,nfsserver,monserver,nfsdir,installnic,primarynic,discoverynics,cmdinterface,xcatmaster,current_osimage,next_osimage,nimserver,routenames,comments,disable
"storage","service01","pxe",,"mn",,,"eth0","eth0",,,,,,,,,
"service","mn","pxe",,,,,"eth0","eth0",,,"mn",,,,,,
"c1n01","service01","pxe",,,,,"eth0","eth0",,,,,,,,,
