[gridengine users] Installing OGE on Rocks Login Node

[Joseph Farran]

Hello.

I have a cluster running Rocks 5.4.3 that I originally setup with Torque/Maui.    I am testing Open Grid Scheduler using the ge2011.11.tar distribution.

I setup OGE on the master head node and was able to also setup 6 compute nodes using "start_gui_installer" on the head node.    All 6 compute nodes were setup without any issues.

All works except that when I tried to setup our login node, I cannot.    The login node has both a private & public network interfaces.   I want to setup our login node "login-node.xxx.uci.edu" as an Executable and Submit node.

When I try to setup our Rocks login node using the private name of login-1-1, it complains with:

     The error message was:
        error: commlib error: access denied (client IP resolved to host name "login-1-1.local". This is not identical to clients host name   "login-node.xxx.uci.edu")
     ERROR: unable to contact qmaster using port 6444 on host "headnode.local"

So then I try installing OGE using the public name of  "login-node.xxx.uci.edu" and it also complains.   As soon as I enter "login-node.xxx.uci.edu" the state column turns red with "Resolvable" and the "Install" GUI button is greyed out so I cannot continue.

Looks like OGE is confused about the actual fully qualified name of our login node.   The FQN is "login-node.xxx.uci.edu" but neither name seems to work.

What is the correct why to get around this?
