_______________________ Note _______________________
If the m aster NIS server is on a different architecture (for example Tru64
UNIX®), you m ig ht see messages similar to the following, w hich i s caused
by an incompatibility in the architecture and program ID:
Trying ypxfrd ... not running
You can safely ignore these messages and p roceed to the next step.
13. Use the text edito r o f yo ur c hoi ce to add nis entries to the end of each line in the
/etc/nsswitch.conf file:
passwd: files nis
shadow: files nis
group: files nis
14. Save your changes and exit the file.
15. Before starting the ypbind service and making it persistent, determine if it is included
in the current run level:
# chkconfig --list ypbind
Do one of the following:
•Iftheypbind service is included in the cu rr ent run level, continue to the next step.
•Iftheypbind service is not included in the current run level, the command return s
the following message:
service ypbind supports chkconfig, but is not referenced
in any runlevel
If th e previous message is returned, enter the fo
llowing comm and to add the ypbind
service to the current run level:
# chkconfig --add ypbind
16. Start the ypbind service and make it persistent:
# service ypbind start
# chkconfig --level 2345 ypbind on
17. As necessary, configure remotely mounted user file systems into the
/hptc_cluster/etc/fstab.proto file, which provides th e ab ili ty to
automatically update the /etc/fstab file on all nodes as part of the initialization of
each node:
a. Us e th e text editor of your choice to edit the following file:
/hptc_cluster/etc/fstab.proto
b. Look for the f o ll owi ng lin es in the file:
#% ALL
# Put lines here that you want copied directly to the /etc/fstab on
# every node
c. Add your remote file s ystem entries below those lines. Your remote file system
entries will look similar to the f oll owing:
userfiles1.big.com:/usr1 /usr1 nfs wsize=8192,rsize=8192
userfiles1.big.com:/usr2 /usr2 nfs wsize=8192,rsize=8192
d. Save your changes and exit the file.
e. C reate mount points for your remote file system s if they do not already exist:
# mkdir /usr1
# mkdir /usr2
