FhGFS install

[kasul...@gmail.com]

Hello,

  

  I have 3 vm's to test out the build and learn FH. I am having a problem when the script builds the client packages. 

Building fhgfs-client-opentk module

*** ERROR: Linux kernel build directory not found. Please check if the kernel module development packages are installed for the current kernel version. (RHEL: kernel-devel; SLES: kernel-source; Debian: linux-headers)

make[2]: *** [module] Error 1

make[1]: *** [opentk] Error 2

make: *** [auto_rebuild] Error 2

 interesting part is that for the installation script is trying to install the client packages on my storage node.  ex: 10.127 is the client while 10.126 is a storage, according to the attached log from the auto install, it appears to not be building it on .10.127 but  on 10.126.  I have tried to run the manual install on 10.127 ( client ) and I still run into the build errors. So I yum install kernel-devel kernel-headers and just in case groupinstall "Development Tools" on 10.126 ( storage)and 10.127 ( client ) just to get passed the build errors.  

I am running on Centos 6.4  Linux fhgfs-client 2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Feb 22 00:31:26 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Any advice or tips are welcome as it could be user error.

I guess you are using the fhgfs-admon java gui for the installation? Did
you accidentally add your storage server to the configured clients?


Thanks,
Bernd

Hey,

  I am using the admon gui and I don't believe I did. You can see from the top of the message that the IP's are different from the client to storage.

breakdown is:

192.168.10.125 ( Manager,metadata1,storage1)

192.168.10.126 ( Metadata2,Storage2)

192.168.10.127 ( client )

Hello,

I tried to reproduce this problem, but I couldn't. Did you add the
hostname into the installation GUI or the IP addresses? If you use the
hostnames in the GUI, please check your DNS settings and the /etc/hosts
file on the server with the fhgfs-admon.

kind regards,
Frank

Thanks Frank,

  I used the IP only. recreate the vm's and start from scratch to see if I can replicate the log file.

Hi Mark,

Have you found solution for you issue? Apparently, I have same error on RHEL 2.6.32-358.2.1.el6.x86_64.

Thanks in advance for reply.

Best regards,

I also have stepped into this problem. Did anyone find a work around?

which problem exactly do you mean? Does the client fail to compile
because the corresponding kernel package is not installed on the system?
If so, did you install the package that is suggested by the client error
message (e.g. "yum install kernel-devel" on RHEL/CentOS)?

(Please note that if installation of the kernel-devel package also leads
to a kernel update on that machine, then you would need to reboot the
machine so that the running kernel version matches the version of the
installed the kernel-devel package.)

Hi Thanks for your reply.

The issue I was having was the autobuild on the client system would not complete.

In my case it turned out I did not have a match between running kernel and the kernel sources on disk. I updated my running kernel to align with the version of the sources on disk and the autobuild script ran without issue.

I also came across that one needs to ensure both udp and tcp ports 8000 and > are open, that tripped me up when I just opened the tcp ports and not udp ports, after udp and tcp ports were open I was abl;e to manage the services ect from the java gui.

Again thanks for the reply.
