I've installed xCat in a SLES11 linux guest running under z/VM. I've been
through the installation process for xCat and zHCP. I'm now to the section
where it says I can begin using xCat commands and the UI. So for grins I
try to rpower command to check the status of my zHCP server.
slesxcat:~ # rpower sleszhcp stat
Error: Unable to dispatch hierarchical sub-command to 10.6.0.10:3001. This
service node may be down or its xcatd daemon may not be responding.
So here's a problem. 10.6.0.10 is NOT my zHCP server. That is my DNS
server. Looking through the install process I can not determine where it
was that I told xcat what my zHCP server IP address is.
I've search back through the document and I know I have to have missed
something, but I sure can't find it. This is the only time I see the IP
address of the zHCP being entered.
mkdef -t node -o gpok2 userid=LNX2 hcp=gpok2.endicott.ibm.com mgt=zvm groups=all
chtab node=gpok2 hosts.ip="10.1.100.2" hosts.hostnames="gpok2.endicott.ibm.com"
Which I have done using my specfics.
slesxcat:~ # lsdef -t node -o sleszhcp
Object name: sleszhcp
groups=all
hcp=sleszhcp.xcat.s390.mainline.com
hostnames=sleszhcp.xcat.s390.mainline.com
ip=172.16.1.41
mgt=zvm
postbootscripts=otherpkgs
postscripts=syslog,remoteshell,syncfiles
userid=SLESZHCP
What have I missed?
