The following nodes are configured with the common role "compute":
n[11-15]
• [A]ll output looks similar to the following and displays specific information about the head node
and each client node. Be aware that output can be quite lengthy on a system with a large number
of nodes. For example, the output for a 500 node system with 495 compute-only nodes results in
approximately 1500 lines of output.

7. Do the following:
a. See Chapter 8 (page 91) for a description of the default role assignments based on system size.
Also, read about the special considerations regarding the default role assignments to determine
if they are suitable for your environment. If you do not modify the role assignments, your system
will be configured with the default assignments.
After reading this information, determine if you are satisfied with this configuration or if you want
to modify role assignments.
b. If necessary, refer to Appendix F (page 117), and use the Modify Nodes and Analyze options
to adjust the role assignments or create an external Ethernet connection on any node.
c. When you are satisfied with the role assignments and Ethernet connections, continue to step 8.
8. When you are satisfied with the current system configuration, enter the letter p to apply it to the system:
[L]ist Nodes, [M]odify Nodes, [A]nalyze, [H]elp, [P]roceed, [Q]uit: p
Do you want to apply your changes to the cluster configuration? [y/n] y
