HP Insight control for Linux 6.2 Installation Guide

7. Save your changes and exit the text editor.
Procedure 3-2 Opening ports on SLES operating systems
1. Use a text editor to create an /etc/sysconfig/nfs file with MOUNTD_PORT set to a constant
open port. You can use any available port number above 1024.
.
.
.
## Path: Network/File systems/NFS server
## Description: use fixed port number for mountd
## Type: integer
## Default: ""
## ServiceRestart: nfsserver
#
# Only set this if you want to start mountd on a fixed
# port instead of the port assigned by rpc. Only for use
# to export nfs-filesystems through firewalls.
#
MOUNTD_PORT="33777"
.
.
.
2. Save your changes and exit the text editor.
3. Use a text editor to modify the /etc/services file to lock down the quota daemon:
rquotad 14900/udp
rquotad 14900/tcp
4. Save your changes and exit the text editor.
5. Set the lockd lock manager port and start NFS:
# /etc/init.d/nfsserver stop
# echo 14902 > /proc/sys/fs/nfs/nlm_udpport
# echo 14902 > /proc/sys/fs/nfs/nlm_tcpport
# /etc/init.d/nfsserver start
6. When the ports are locked down, open the following ports on the CMS for NFS (and
/hptc_cluster) to be shared. Use a text editor to add the following ports to the /etc/
sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2 file:
FW_SERVICES_EXT_TCP="111 2049 14900 14902 33777"
FW_SERVICES_EXT_UDP="111 2049 14900 14902 33777"
NOTE: Port 111 is portmapper and port 2049 is NFS.
7. Save your changes and exit the text editor.
8. Restart the SuSEfirewall2 service:
# SuSEfirewall2 restart
9. Ensure that the nfsserver service starts on boot:
# /sbin/chkconfig nfsserver on
3.4.2.7 Ensure sufficient disk space in the repository
Ensure that a sufficient amount of unused disk space is available in the /opt/repository
directory on the CMS.
The repository is where vendor-supplied Linux operating systems, Kickstart and AutoYaST
installation configuration files, and PSPs are stored for installation and deployment to managed
systems. Because the repository stores all OS distributions, installation configuration files, captured
Linux images, and PSPs, it is likely that it will grow very large.
