Richmond Cluster (19)

Sunday 11 May, 2008 - 23:12

Deleted the richmond2 image and cloned another copy from the RHEL 3.7 1GB image (see Richmond Cluster (01) for disk configuration).

I added the NICs via kudzu and configured the default gateway to be 192.168.100.66 . Imagine my surprise when I found the following route table:

# route

Kernel IP routing table

Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface

192.168.100.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0

192.168.101.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1

169.254.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth1

default 192.168.100.66 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

There is no need to add route scripts. Things are so much easier when I do things the right way.

Updated /etc/sysconfig/network

Updated /etc/hosts

Shutdown because I forgot to update the vmx file for disk sharing per Going in Circles.

I also didn't update the vmx file for richmond1 - now fixed.

Using the installation instructions from Clusterware Installation for Linux (because that is what will be available in the exam) to rebuild richmond2.

Will continue in the morning.
