Troubleshooting the Cluster Configuration Process

Use the following command to view the node role assignments:

# shownode config | more

The results of successful and unsuccessful services configuration are logged in the /var/log/nconfig.log file on each node.

DNS is not functioning or the IP address of the external connection on the head node is not available from DNS when you see the following message:

gethostbyaddr failure

To resolve this problem, edit the /etc/resolv.conf file and fix incorrect DNS entries.

Nodes that fail the configuration phase are put into single-user mode and marked as disabled in the database if an essential service failed.
