SCore System Installation on Compute Hosts

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
   

   To rsh by root, please execute as following:

   # echo rsh > /etc/securetty
   

   Then enable rsh rlogin to the compute host.

   # /sbin/chkconfig rsh on
   

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.
   To use PM/Ethernet, please create /etc/pm_ethernet.conf file. For example, if you want to eth0 on PM/Ethernet unit 0, please create /etc/pm_ethernet.conf as following line;

       PM_ETHERNET_UNIT_ETH0=0
   

# /sbin/reboot
