[Condor-users] Problem installing condor on cluster.

["Chris Miles" <chrismiles@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a cluster with 24 nodes and a manager node.

 

names of each are

 

mgmnt.cluster.int

node1.cluster.int

node2.cluster.int

..

node24.cluster.int

 

mgmnt.cluster.int has an alias thebeast.cluster.int (it was setup this way by the company that installed the cluster).

so when i log into the manager i get the prompt [thebeast] but if i ping thebeast it starts pinging mgmnt.cluster.int (192.168.1.1).

 

on the cluster /home/condor is shared between all nodes.

 

I ran condor_install and setup the various options, selecting that /home/condor was shared and the relevant options with config files etc.

 

During condor_install i set the condor central manager to mgmnt.cluster.int

 

The cluster manager machine is also my condor central manager. 

 

I then ran condor_init and then condor_master but the collector and a few other processes associated with the central manager

is not running so I can only presume than when im executing condor_master on this machine its only recognising itself as a normal

node and not the central manager which I want it to be.

 

Is there something simple I am missing or overseeing?

 

Many thanks in advance
