NOTE:
During the X9000 Software installation, the names of crash dumps in the /var/crash directory
change to include _PROCESSED. For example, 2010-03-08-10:09 changes to
2010-03-08-10:09_PROCESSED.
NOTE:
Be sure to monitor the /var/crash directory and remove any unneeded processed crash dumps.
Configuring shared ssh keys
To configure one-way shared ssh keys on the cluster, complete the following steps:
1. On the management console, run the following commands as root:
# mkdir -p $HOME/.ssh
# chmod 0700 $HOME/.ssh
# ssh-keygen -t dsa -f $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa -P ''
This command creates two files: $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa (private key) and $HOME/.ssh/
id_dsa.pub (public key).
2. On the management console, run the following command for each file serving node:
# ssh-copy-id -i $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa.pub server
3. On the Management Console, test the results by using the ssh command to connect to each file
serving node:
# ssh {hostname for file serving node}
Viewing software version numbers
To view version information for a list of hosts, use the following command:
<installdirectory>/bin/ibrix_version -l [-h HOSTLIST]
For each host, the output includes:
• Version number of the installed file system
• Version numbers of the IAD and File System module
• Operating system type and OS kernel version
• Processor architecture
The -S option shows this information for all file serving nodes. The -C option shows the information
for all X9000 clients.
The file system and IAD/FS output fields should show matching version numbers unless you have
installed special releases or patches. If the output fields show mismatched version numbers and you
do not know of any reason for the mismatch, contact HP Support. A mismatch might affect the operation
of your cluster.
