I'm just getting started testing xcat, so please don't laugh if this is too simple of a question.
I've got a demo xcat MN, and I'm to the point of trying to boot a compute node, in this case diskless. I'm using xnba to boot my x86_64 host, but when it tries to pull from "http://[MN's IP]/tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nets/192.168.25.0_24", it gets a "No such file or directory". It's right. When I look in /tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nets, I see the following: > # ls -l /tftpboot/xcat/xnba/nets > total 24 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 241 Jan 19 10:36 127.0.0.0_8 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 241 Jan 19 10:36 127.0.0.0_8.elilo > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 109 Jan 19 10:36 127.0.0.0_8.uefi > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 245 Jan 19 10:36 192.168.64.0_24 > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 253 Jan 19 10:36 192.168.64.0_24.elilo > -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 113 Jan 19 10:36 192.168.64.0_24.uefi Now, the MN has 2 ethernet interfaces, eth0 (192.168.64.17, facing the outside world), and eth1 (192.168.25.7, facing the compute nodes). Clearly I missed a step setting up these files, but I'm struggling to figure out what it is, or how I missed it. So, in short, how do I force it to regenerate these files? I've already verified that both networks are defined in (I think) the appropriate xcat tables: > [root@xcattest nets]# makenetworks -d > > #From xcattest.fsl.byu.edu. > 192_168_25_0-255_255_255_0: > objtype=network > net=192.168.25.0 > mask=255.255.255.0 > gateway=192.168.25.1 > mgtifname=eth1 > tftpserver=192.168.25.7 > # Note: An equivalent xCAT network definition already exists. > > > #From xcattest.fsl.byu.edu. > 192_168_64_0-255_255_255_0: > objtype=network > net=192.168.64.0 > mask=255.255.255.0 > gateway=<xcatmaster> > mgtifname=eth0 > tftpserver=192.168.64.17 > # Note: An equivalent xCAT network definition already exists. > > [root@xcattest nets]# What am I missing here?
