Hi

I have installed rhel5 on a box, with 3 nic
eth0 192.168.1.40/24 - my connection lan
eth1 172.100.1.1/16 - management lan (the oa's and ilos are here)
eth2 172.101.1.1/16 - public lan

I have run the install.sh script and this is the last bit

I have progressed a bit further updated my hosts file

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6

192.168.1.40 icelinux.hn.esc.sno
172.100.1.1 hn.cms.icelinux.hn.esc.sno icelinux
172.101.1.1 hn.pub.icelinux.hn.esc.sno

but now I get a different error (/opt/hp/icelx/logs/install.log)
23 Sep 2008: 05_sim_install.sh - There was an error initializing HP SIM.
Review the output above and correct the issue.
Refer to the installation guide for additional help.

Looking a bit further I pointed my browser at the url and I was unable to log in using my pre defined userid and password

root -> hpinvent

seems like I have to use the system password (maybe i miss read the config stage)

Just some basics.

You don't want your system hostname to be 'localhost'. It causes all sorts of issues. Make sure you system and network look OK before installing ICE-Linux. That means, make sure you have a valid host name and that your hostname translates into a valid IP address (not localhost).

Then try to install ICE-Linux. When it asks which of the three network adapters you want to use, give it the one that will be used to talk to the managed systems primary NIC, NOT the iLOs and OAs.

Good luck...

Yeah I have hostname set to hn.cms.icelinux.hn.esc.sno icelinux

which is set in /etc/hosts and /etc/sysconfig/network

I have nic1 of each blade in a vlan 100, where the OA & ilos are, nic2 of each blade is in a different spot

I rang through the install process again, this time giving the current root password when it asked for the root password, instead of making one up and all is working fine, well installed atleast
