Following steps must be performed to complain with CLON Cluster requirements:

1. Automount

  • Include machine name into clonfs2 export list
  • Add/Modify automounts-related files in '/etc' directory (or copy them from similar machine) and symbolic links. Restart automount service:
/etc/init.d/autofs restart

NOTE: To mount temporary iso images use command: 

mkdir /mnt/isoimage
mount -o loop -t iso9660 blablabla.iso /mnt/isoimage
  • activate Ntp service (by default it is disabled, at least in RHEL4)
  • Proceed with SUN's JAVA installation (default one is IBM's and our stuff is not compiling; besides all Sun machines have Sun's JAVA and we want to have the same version everywhere).
  • install (or customize if installed) mysql software: follow instructions in MySQL Installation
  • configure X server if your machine has display(s)
