[Starlingx-discuss] controller-1 install/setup using ISO (not pxe)
Hi, I have installed controller-0 and my OAM_IF is eno1 and MGMT_IF is eno2. I am trying to install controller-1. However, my existing OAM lab network already runs pxe. And my server BIOS does not have an option to select one specific network interface for PXE booting. So I tried to temporarily switch the cables (connect mgmt to eno1 and disconnect oam). The pxe boot works; controller-1 gets discovered. And I can do host-update 2 personality=controller. After the install and reboot, I switch back the cables. And try to set the OAM_IF to the correct/final interface (eno1). [sysadmin@controller-0 etc(keystone_admin)]$ OAM_IF=eno1 && MGMT_IF=eno2 [sysadmin@controller-0 etc(keystone_admin)]$ system host-if-modify controller-1 $OAM_IF -c platform Interface not found: host controller-1 if eno1 I see the controller-1 does not have an IP post reboot. I tried manually setting the eno2 IP to 192.168.204.2/24 but still it shows offline. [sysadmin@controller-0 ~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-list +----+--------------+-------------+----------------+-------------+--------------+ | id | hostname | personality | administrative | operational | availability | +----+--------------+-------------+----------------+-------------+--------------+ | 1 | controller-0 | controller | unlocked | enabled | available | | 2 | controller-1 | controller | locked | disabled | offline | +----+--------------+-------------+----------------+-------------+--------------+ I cannot reverse the cabling on the NICs for a different set of reasons. Any workaround? Is there a way to install the software using iso, set some IPs manually and then enroll the controller-1 to the cluster? Thanks in advance Pratik
Only the first controller can install from ISO. All other nodes must install from the active controller via pxeboot. -----Original Message----- From: Pratik M.

Thank you. Is there any workaround? That allows me to swap my oam-if and mgmt-if before/after unlocking. I also noticed that in controller-1, the pxe installation seems to rename the cluster-interface to mgmt0. Any help would be appreciated. This should be a normal occurrence in any network that does pxe on the OAM, right? Thanks in advance On Thu, Sep 19, 2019 at 7:10 PM Penney, Don <Don.Penney@windriver.com> wrote:
