The pithy ruminations from Christian Caruthers on
[[External] [xcat-user] makehosts not creating aliases Possibly Bug 6828?] were:
=> Running 2.16.0.lenovo1 on stock CentOS 8.2.
I'm running 2.16.0.lenovo1 on stock CentOS 7.8, and I'm seeing very similar
behavior to what Christian described.
=>
=> I have the following setup:
=>
=> nodels login hosts.hostnames midway3-login1: login1,l1 midway3-login2:
=> login2,l2
=>
=> When I run makehosts login (w/ or w/o "-l"), these are not created:
Same here:
###########################################################
[root@mgmt1 ~]# lsdef head1|grep hostnames
hostnames=J12345,head1
# The node definition has the alias
[root@mgmt1 ~]#
[root@mgmt1 ~]# nodels head1 hosts.hostnames
head1: J12345,head1
# The hosts table has the alias
[root@mgmt1 ~]#
[root@mgmt1 ~]# nodels head1 nics.nicaliases
head1: J12345,head1
# The nics table has an alias -- the behavior is the same if
this is present or not
[root@mgmt1 ~]#
[root@mgmt1 ~]# grep head1 /etc/hosts
10.20.10.1 head1 head1.mydomain.local
# there is no alias in /etc/hosts
[root@mgmt1 ~]#
[root@mgmt1 ~]# makehosts
# makehosts runs without error
[root@mgmt1 ~]#
[root@mgmt1 ~]# grep head1 /etc/hosts
10.20.10.1 head1 head1.mydomain.local
# there is still no alias
[root@mgmt1 ~]#
[root@mgmt1 ~]#
[root@mgmt1 ~]# lsxcatd -v

=>
=> It appears to be related to bug 6828. Was there a workaround beyond
=> duplicating efforts and defining the interface in the nics table?
=>
In my case, adding an alias to the nics table doesn't seem to help.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mark
