Preface vii HSP Re-image Guide viii Preface HSP Re-image Guide Clean install steps & requirements
This chapter describes the process of re-imaging HSP nodes from a USB memory stick.
❒ Procedure
Clean install steps & requirements 1 HSP Re-image Guide Procedure
1. Gather IP Addresses, Network information, etc. from the Customer.
2. Insert a USB stick into an HSP node USB port.
3. The BIOS must be updated so the node boots from USB. Reboot the node and when the American Megatrends image flashes, press F11 to enter the BBS Popup menu.
4. Choose the option that corresponds to the USB stick. Usually this is named after the manufacturer of the USB stick. For example: Sony Storage Device.
Note: Do not attempt to use UEFI booting for your USB stick. For example do not use any entry that looks like UEFI Sony Storage Device
5. The node installation process does not require human intervention at this point. After the installation of a node is complete it will be rebooted automatically. The total time taken for the installation of a node is typically 10 minutes including boot-up time.
6. Installation of other nodes in the cluster can proceed in parallel, if you have multiple USB sticks.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for the next node until all the HSP nodes in the cluster are running the new build.
8. After installation on a node is complete, the prompt should say: pcsnode login:
9. Log into any one of the nodes as: User: hds_init Password: hds_init
10. Type cluster_initialize to configure the cluster.
Note: If there is no network present --nonet can be used to initialize the cluster.
2 Clean install steps & requirements HSP Re-image Guide 11. Enter Cluster Virtual IP and the default gateway as prompted, the. Virtual IP must be specified with subnet mask bits: e.g. 172.20.148.91/20 for an IP address with netmask 255.255.240.0.
12. Exit as hds_init and log in as: User: admin Password: admin.
13. Type hspadm node list at the prompt to follow the progress of cluster initialization. This can take up to 15 minutes. When complete, you will see all cluster nodes like so: admin@Node001:~$ hspadm node list
14. When the cluster is up:
a. Obtain the cluster name by entering:
admin@Node001:~$ hspadm cluster list
b. Edit the description with DNS and NTP information:
admin@Node001:~$ hspadm cluster edit --name
c. Assign floating IPs: $ hspadm ip-address add --name floating --ip-address 172.20.148.92/20-172.20.148.96/20 --role node
$ hspadm ip-address add --name vm --ip-address 172.20.148.97/20- 172.20.148.100/20 --role vm
d. Create file-system: $ hspadm file-system add --name fs_test --quota 128GiB
Clean install steps & requirements 3 HSP Re-image Guide e. Share is automatically created, so create access rule: $ hspadm access-rule edit --name DefaultAccessRule --file-system fs_test --share fs_test --root-squash No
