Automagic:

If you purchased Y-HPC- “yinstaller” is used to propagate a configured OS from the head node onto the other nodes.

Otherwise systeminstaller (www.systeminstaller.org) could be used, in the same way, to install YDL from a head node to the other nodes. Either way, the headless nodes have to be set to netboot the first time and then run off of their hard drives.

Subject: [ydl-gen] headless configuration

 

I have a couple apple Xserves running with a 2 Ghz single G5 processor.   I've installed  YDL on one of them.  I had to install a video card in the machine to be able to install the OS.  I am unable to set the second machine up in a headless configuration(using a serial connection for a console).  On the YDL webpage under platforms supported it lists Xserve and under that there is a note that implies that to run headless, there are 2 options Y-HPC or manual configuration.  Does anyone know what the manual configuration steps are or where they are documented.  I've tried quite a few different things that have been posted in the forums as well as all over the web with no luck. 

Thanks!
Chris
