| + | ===== Step 2 ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Select an installer node, insert Kusu Installer into CD/DVD, and connect device via USB ports. | ||
| + | * Installer node, and 2-3 compute nodes, must have the purple cable connecting eth0 (bottom port) to rack ProCurve switch (top one). If you wish, you can cable top port (eth1) into bottom switch for testing, but this is not necessary. | ||
| + | * Boot installer node, hit F2 to Enter BIOS, traverse to menu tab Boot and make sure both CDROM and Removable Device are listed before any other options like hard disk and network cards, hit F10, save changes and exit/ | ||
| + | * Next you should see the Project Kusu splash page with the orange lego turtle; when prompted type ' | ||
| + | * Navigation around these screens is Tab/Enter and arrow keys. | ||
| + | * Next come the informational screens, in order | ||
| + | * 1 - language: English | ||
| + | * 2 - keyboard: us | ||
| + | * 3 - network, configure each interface, edit and configure two private networks (for Pace we'll reset eth1 on installer node later on for public access), this is so that the cluster is not accessible from outside and we could separate provision from private (NFS data/MPI) traffic. Edit: | ||
| + | * eth0: 192.168.101.254/ | ||
| + | * name: kusu101prov, | ||
| + | * eth1: 10.10.101.254/ | ||
| + | * name: kusupriv, type: other | ||
| + | * 4 - gateway & dns: gateway 192.168.101.0 (is not used but required field), dns server 192.168.101.254 (installer node) | ||
| + | * 5 - host: FQDN kusu101, PCD kusu101 (basically we will not provide internet accessible names) | ||
| + | * 6 - time: American/ | ||
| + | * 7 - root password: password (keep simple for now, change later) | ||
| + | * 8 - disk partitions: select 'Use Default' | ||
| + | * edit /home downsize to 1024 (Pace may want to leave this much larger and create a 1 GB / | ||
| + | * add a logical volume | ||
| + | * mount point / | ||
| + | * label LOCALSCRATCH | ||
| + | * size: leave blank, see below | ||
| + | * type ext3, on hda, check "fill remaining space on disk" (!only one partition can have this setting!) | ||
| + | * 9 - confirm: accept (at this point the disk gets reformatted) | ||
| + | * 10 - kits: select Add, insert kit cd, wait, cycle through disks by kit, then No More Kits, then Finish (node reboots). | ||
| + | |||
| + | Upon reboot check some command output: hostname, route, ifconfig, bhosts, bqueues | ||
