HP XC System Software Installation Guide Version 4.0

1. Install the SFS G3.0-0 web-enabler-tool:
# rpm -ivh hpls-lustre-server-webtool-SFS-G3.x86_64.rpm
2. Enter the following command on the SFS G3.0-0 server MGS node:
# sfsg3_xcconfig –i -s [server_name] -w [DocumentRoot]
See the /usr/opt/hpls_web/README file for more information about the
sfsg3_xcconfig tool.
5.7.1.3.2 Step 2: Install and Configure SFS G3.0-0 Clients on the Head Node
To install and configure the SFS G3.0-0 client on the head node:
1. Unpack the SFS G3.0-0 tar file you downloaded from the ITRC website.
2. Install the SFS G3.0-0 client RPMs:
# lustre-1.6.6-SFS_G3.0_0_xc4.0_k2.6.18_53.1.21.el5.4hp.x86_64.rpm \
lustre-modules-1.6.6-SFS_G3.0_0_xc4.0_k2.6.18_53.1.21.el5.4hp.x86_64.rpm \
lustre-source-1.6.6-SFS_G3.0_0_xc4.0_k2.6.18_53.1.21.el5.4hp.x86_64.rpm \
lustre-tests-1.6.6-SFS_G3.0_0_xc4.0_k2.6.18_53.1.21.el5.4hp.x86_64.rpm \
lustre-debuginfo-1.6.6-SFS_G3.0_0_xc4.0_k2.6.18_53.1.21.el5.4hp.x86_64.rpm \
hpls-lustre-client-SFS_G3.0-0.x86_64.rpm \
hpls-lustre-server-webtool-SFS-G3.0-0.x86_64.rpm
For Intel Itanium 2 architectures, replace the string x86_64 with ia64 in the RPM names.
NOTE: The generic naming convention for SFS RPM names is:
{Lustre-version}-{SFS-version}_{xc-version}_{kernel-version}
3. Ensure that the Lustre modules are loaded:
# depmod
# modprobe lustre
4. Use a text editor to add the host name and IP address of the SFS G3.0-0 MGS node to the
/etc/hosts file, as follows
IP_address MGS_host_name
Substitute IP_address with the IP address of the MGS node, and substitute
MGS_host_name with the same host name you specified in the sfsg3_xcconfig -s
[server]command when you installed the SFS G3.0-0 web-enabler-tool.
5. Save your changes to the file and exit the text editor.
6. Ensure connectivity between the HP XC head node and the SFS G3.0-0 server:
# ping MGS_host_name
7. Verify whether you can access the lustre web-info hosted on the SFS G3.0-0 server:
# sfsview -t MGS_host_name
8. Configure lnet on the head node.
# sfsconfig --server MGS_host_name all
The sfsconfig command creates a new /etc/modprobe.conf.lustre file that contains
the appropriate lnet settings and includes the new file in the /etc/modprobe.conf file.
When the sfsconfig command has completed, examine entries in the /etc/
modprobe.conf.lustre and the /etc/modprobe.conf files on the head node to ensure
the lnet settings have been added. For example, the /etc/modprobe.conf.lustre file
should contain an entry similar to this:
options lnet networks=o2ib0
