I am not having much luck finding an xdsh command to run that succeeds. I get "permission denied" on the mgmt node for any command I try to run as root. On the service nodes, I am trying to follow the xdsh man page to just run a simple uptime and am getting:

[root@service01 ~]# xdsh c26n24 "uptime"
Error: Invalid context specified: DSH
Error: Failed to dispatch command to any of the following service nodes: service01,service02,service03,service04


From the management node (trying to use the trace option to see errors):

[root@mgmt1 ~]# xdsh c26n24 -T "uptime"
Error: Permission denied for request

Logs show:
Dec 7 14:36:13 mgmt1 xCAT: xCAT: Allowing xdsh to c26n24 for root from localhost

Policy table for root:
"1","root",,,,,,"allow",,


Not seeing anything in the compute nodes messages or secure that would lead me to believe an attempt to login via SSH was ever made.

psh, on the other hand, works fine. the remoteshell script does run on each node at boot time.

The error is given because the nodes are not in the same subnet as the service node, the script did not check for routing. The code uses this function to set up MASTER environmental variable for the node when calling postscripts. If it is not set up correctly some of the postscripts such as syslog will fail. When you say "it works fine even with that error". Can you xdsh to the nodes that has the error?

Thanks!

DNS is working properly, both forward and reverse... this seems to occur mostly when entire clusters are booted at the same time.

The nodes are not within the same subnet, all of these nodes are on different subnets from the service nodes (and routed of course). The other strange thing is again, it works fine even with that error:


[root@service03-hc log]# grep c25n37 messages
Dec  7 09:05:02 service03 xCAT: xCAT: Allowing getpostscript from c25n37
Dec  7 09:05:03 service03 xCAT: Cannot find master for the node c25n37

Dec  7 09:05:32 service03 xCAT: xCAT: Allowing getcredentials from c25n37


Could this message manifest itself if a service node is very busy? IE, not really an error, just took too long to respond to the request? Or is this literally sending the error because the compute nodes are not on the same subnet as the service nodes?

Hi,
The error is from getFacingIP function. This function takes a node name as an input. Then it find out the ip of the given node. Then it call "ifconfig" on the local host. Then it try to see if the node ip and local host is within the same subnet or not. (Please see the code below). The error usually happens when the name resolution on the local host cannot resolve the given node. Hope it helps.

Subject: [xcat-user] Cannot find master for the node $node
------------------------------------------------------------------------



Hi all,

What circumstances have to be present for an xCAT 2.3 service node (old
I know, but upgrade is not an option at this time) to write to the logs:

Dec  7 09:16:33 service03 xCAT: Cannot find master for the node c25n25


All of our service nodes have been doing this for at least over a month
now, and we have just never noticed it before as nodes are
netbooting/installing fine. Just curious what the logic is in the code
that has this message being written out, just so that if it turns out to
be something we need to track down we know where to start.

Thanks!
