SCore System Installation on Compute Hosts

Login to ALL compute hosts and perform the following:
  1. Binary Installation from binary RPMs

    Mount the /opt/score.work directory of the server on the compute host, and then execute the following commands: 

    	# cd /opt/score.work
	# ./bininstall -compute

  2. Set up networking
    /root/.rhosts and the /etc/hosts.equiv files must contain all server and compute host names so that the rsh command works on all hosts. For example, 
    server.pccluster.org
comp0.pccluster.org
comp1.pccluster.org
comp2.pccluster.org
comp3.pccluster.org
  3. Edit /root/.bashrc on all hosts so that the following line is added: 
    export PWD
  4. PM/Ethernet init program

    The PM/Ethernet init program was already installed in /etc/rc.d/init.d when the binaries were installed using the binary RPMs.
    Edit the /etc/rc.d/init.d/pm_ethernet file and modify the IF variable if the machine has more than one ethernet card and you want to use a device other than the /dev/eth0 device. For example, if you want to use /dev/eth1, the IF variable should be: 

    	IF=eth1

    Then invoke the following command: 

    	# /etc/rc.d/init.d/pm_ethernet start

  5. PBS/SCore
    See PBS/SCore Administrator's Guide if you want to use PBS/SCore.
