When i am trying to execute cmapplyconf i received this error:
cmapplyconf -v -C $SGCONF/cluster.config

The "detected a partition of IP subnet" message indicates there is no connectivity between eth0 on node "cluster1" and "cluster2" , or it could mean that the speed/duplex of the NICs are incompatible, or a network device between the servers does not pass layer 2 DLPI protocol messages or .....

Shalom,

SG uses .rhosts connectivity. You have to have rlogin and such enabled in the xinetd daemon /etc/xinetd.d

By default those services are not turned on in Linux.

Also 11.16 may require different options on these utilities than prior versions. This is definitely the case with the HP-UX version.

Just to comment on the previous message by Steven. Neither Serviceguard on HP-UX nor Linux require .rhosts to be setup or for rlogin/remsh to be enabled. The cluster will work perfectly well without these.
