Hi, I have some legacy nodes that will not be xcat managed for the time being but should be in /etc/hosts on my xcat managed nodes. I tried adding them to the xcat database by using the nodeaddunmged command which took a few minutes to complete.
when I straced the xCATd process handling the command(xCATd SSL: nodeaddunmged for root@localhost: profilednodes instance: ddns instance) I saw that it was timing out trying to connect to named. We do not use xcat to manage DNS in our environment, so I do not run bind on our xcat server, and do not generally run makedns myself. Is there some step I should have taken to tell xcat that we're not managing DNS? Is this an unusual way to use xCAT? i was thinking that perhaps I could move makedns aside, and link it to /bin/true or some such, but if there's a better/official way to do what I want I'd love to know what it is. thanks, -Allie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
