copy ignite server

[Toon Joye]

hello,

I 've made made a copy of our Central Ingite Server. So now I've got a CIS3 and a CIS4.
The ipadres of CIS3 is xx.xxx.xxx.103, the ip of CIS4 ends with 104.
When installing from CIS4, I encounter a problem with NFS: when starting to install CIS4 sets up an NFS-connection with xx.xxx.xxx.103(=CIS3). So he gives an RPC Bind error .I've checked the /etc/export-file and everything is there.
So I think that there must be another file that specifies the ipadres of the igniteserver wich I haven't modified yet.

Does anaybody know which file I'm looking for?

Tnx
Toon

Shalom,

/etc/exports probably has inconsisten entries in it.

CIS3 and CIS4 are exactly the same(made by ignite). The only thing that differs is the hostname and the ipadres. So the /etc/exports-files on both servers are also the same.

That's why I think there must be a specific file that determines the ipadres of the ignite-server to setup nfs.
Because when installing from CIS4, ignite tries to setup NFS with the ipadres from CIS3.

There are multiple config files on an Ignite server that can set this. By cloning the server, you have also cloned those files:

First place to look:
'instl_adm -d'
shows you the very first config file Ignite runs. I'd bet
'server=' is set to the previous IP

You can change this setting with the
'instl_adm -f '
command.


You may also have other custom config files called out in /var/opt/ignite/INDEX that have settings. For example I have
nfs_source = "xx.x.xxx.xxx...
IP setting in my custom config files.

As Scot said, typically an Ignite-UX server has these
"server=" lines located in config files. My first
guess would be the *INSTALLFS files. Do this on your
server:

$ cd /opt/ignite/boot
$ ls -aon Rel_B.11.[123][13]/*INSTALLFS
-r--r--r-- 1 2 15728640 Feb 6 16:07 Rel_B.11.11/INSTALLFS
-r--r--r-- 1 2 44957696 Feb 6 16:07 Rel_B.11.23/IINSTALLFS
-r--r--r-- 1 2 33550336 Feb 6 16:07 Rel_B.11.23/WINSTALLFS
-r--r--r-- 1 2 61341696 Feb 6 16:07 Rel_B.11.31/IINSTALLFS
-r--r--r-- 1 2 32768000 Feb 6 16:07 Rel_B.11.31/WINSTALLFS

The config text (which is basically the first 8k of each of
those files above) is typically identical in all files. You
can examine this config text via:

$ instl_adm -d > /tmp/mycfgFS
$ cat -n /tmp/mycfgFS
1 # instl_adm defaults:
2 # NOTE: Manual additions between the lines containing "instl_adm defaults"
3 # and "end instl_adm defaults" will not be preserved.
4 server="99.9.98.48"
5 netmask[]="255.255.255.0"
6 route_gateway[0]="99.9.99.1"
7 route_destination[0]="default"
8 # end instl_adm defaults.

You can edit this file, changing line 4 to reflect the proper
server address. Once done, you would put this config text back
into all of your *INSTALLFS files on the server via:

$ instl_adm -f /tmp/mycfgFS

Validate your work via:

$ instl_adm -d | cat -n
