b.
Consult the Integrated Management Log (IMF).
c.
Verify that the server BIOS settings are set up properly according to Table 1: Factory
System Settings in this document.
NOTE: During the installation process you may be required to assign each NIC a specific function
within the HPC cluster. Consult the cabling guide supplied with the cluster to see the intended function
of each NIC.
Step 8: Setting up the Compute Nodes
The compute nodes are not connected to a keyboard, monitor, or public LAN. Therefore, you
must use the Out Of Band (OOB) Management features of the LC Series solution to remotely
set up and manage each compute node.
If the OOB management switch(es) and the control node have been configured as previously
specified in this guide, you can use the control node and the cluster’s OOB management
connections as-is to verify and setup the compute nodes. On ProLiant DL360 server based
systems, use iLO and the factory preset username and passwords.
NOTE: If you desire to verify the compute node’s hardware before setting up the control node’s
operating system and DHCP functions, you will need to a) connect a separate keyboard, monitor and
mouse to the compute node under test, or b) configure the OOB switch(es) and connect another
computer such as a laptop or another server to the OOB switch for monitoring purposes. In this last
case, you may need to temporarily connect a DHCP server to the OOB management network for
server/switch setup and verification.
1. Power on each compute node and verify that it passes the power on self test (POST).
2. If the cluster was shipped with an operating system installed, then the server will boot to
the OS. Once it has been confirmed that the compute nodes boot properly you can
continue to set up the servers to your operating system and application specifications.
Refer to the operating system and software vendor’s installation instructions for
additional information.
3. Visually check each NIC Link light on the servers and the switches to which they connect
to verify that each cable has a link established.
4. If the server does not boot properly you can try the following as part of the
troubleshooting process:
a.
Look for error messages during POST.
b.
Consult the Integrated Management Log (IML) on iLO based systems.
c.
Consult the IPMI log on IPMI based systems.
d.
Verify that the servers’ BIOS settings are set up properly according to Table 1:
Factory System Settings in this document.
NOTE: During the installation process you may be required to assign each NIC a specific function
within the HPC cluster. Consult the cabling guide supplied with the cluster to see the intended function
of each NIC.
