[Qlustar-General] PXE boot
by Bob Johnson 02 May '18

The nodes will not PXE boot. I see the standard install loads the Realtek r8169 driver. Based on past experience, my hardware requires the r8168 driver. Can the NIC driver be changed in qlustar? Do I execute the following commands at the root@cl-head~# prompt. Or from a different location? apt-get install r8168 -dkms rmmod r8169 lspci -s 3:00.0 -vv (verifies the r8168 driver is loaded) reboot thanks

Reviewing my notes from a few years ago, it appears that I am having some of the same issues with loading Slurm and creating a chroot file during the FAI install Do I need to preload anything before the Qlustar install? Thanks

[Qlustar-General] Qlustar 10.0 install issues
by Bob Johnson 23 Apr '18

23 Apr '18

Having a few issues during the initial install of Qlustar. - Started with a clean install of Qlustar. - All was going well and then the error "failed to start rng-tools.service." - The installed continued on its own to the "Welcome to Qlustar 10..... " screen. - At the root@cl-head~# prompt I entered /usr/sbin/qlustar-inital-config command. - Next error message encountered was during the gluman bootstrap - couldn't determine IP address.... Install continued to the configure slurmbd section - Entered my slurm password twice and and I receive this error after several minutes of waiting - "sacctmgr: Can't connect do slurmbd - exiting" Any thoughts?
