BULLETIN NUMBER: SWB-051

DATE ISSUED:  September 20, 2006

DATE CLOSED:

AFFECTED SYSTEMS: iHawk Cluster Manager Master Systems

RELEASE LEVEL: RedHawk 4.1.x

EXPLANATION:  Diskless booting from the cluster manager master fails to

configure DNS with DNS information provided by the DHCP server.

RESOLUTION: If using DNS (Domain Name Server) on diskless nodes, you must

configure DNS statically by creating a resolv.conf file in the cluster file system image.

Refer to the Cluster Manager User’s Guide, section “Configuring Files Copied to File

System Image” on page 1-5.  See resolv.conf(5) man page for details on creating the

file.  This is not necessary for disk-based booting.
