Details

This tool can be invoked in two ways, based on your specific requirements.

• (Not recommended) If you want manager_config to drive the allocation of

hostnames and IP addresses of the Compute Nodes in the cluster (based on

some basic questions), /opt/clusterpack/bin/manager_config is invoked

with no arguments.

% /opt/clusterpack/bin/manager_config

• If you want manager_config to assign specific hostnames and IP addresses to

the Compute Nodes in the cluster, supply an input file in the same format as

/etc/hosts, and invoke the tool as follows:

% /opt/clusterpack/bin/manager_config -f <input_file>

• The ClusterPack DVD is no longer required during installation. On the source

machine, unmount the DVD drive and remove the DVD.

% /sbin/umount /mnt/dvdrom
