Hi all, I've managed to pass the other problem. after installing FC5 I updated everything (with 'yum update') and it was under that configuration that the installation script was unable to determine the machine's architecture.
I've fresh installed FC5 (1 headnode + 1 client) and everything went smooth. I got to the test phase and every test passed BUT Ganglia!!! In the ganglia.err file (pasted below) the client (molevol1.ub.edu) looks OK and so the problem seems to be with the headnode (molevol.ub.edu) that does not show up in CLUSTER HOSTS. Since it is a small cluster I've also set the headnode to an execution host (could this be the problem?). I've also checked for gmond and it is running in all machines. thanks in adv, FG Client nodes: molevol1.ub.edu Match pattern: molevol.ub.edu|molevol1.ub.edu Number of hosts matched: 1 Gstat output: CLUSTER INFORMATION Name: MolEvol Hosts: 1 Gexec Hosts: 0 Dead Hosts: 0 Localtime: Thu Jun 28 17:26:44 2007 CLUSTER HOSTS Hostname LOAD CPU Gexec CPUs (Procs/Total) [ 1, 5, 15min] [ User, Nice, System, Idle, Wio] molevol1.ub.edu 2 ( 1/ 66) [ 0.00, 0.00, 0.00] [ 2.1, 0.0, 0.8, 97.1, 0.1] OFF The number of nodes expected is different from the number of nodes detected. Check to see if gmond is running on all your nodes and make sure that you are not having any network issues. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
