Hi,

We are trying to setup a test cluster with 3 physical nodes, using: LINBIT Clo
udStack HCI version 1.3.0-rc.2.cloudstack.

The nodes have dual network card (fiber channel 10GBs) , we configured a bond network and over that a vlan specific for this nodes.

All the nodes can reach each other, they are able to reach the gw and are accesible remotly using ssh.

When we start the cluster config, the installation fails:

“rpc error: code = Unknown desc = failed to configure cloudstack management: exit status 9”

I have downloaded the logs and no further information is available, this is the only file containing an error ouput.

"Command line:
linstor-appliance --version
Exit code: 0
Output:
linstor-appliance version 1.3.0-rc.2.cloudstack
Product: LINBIT CloudStack HCI (cloudstack)
Built at Mon Dec 23 10:55:40 UTC 2024
Version control hash: v1.3.0-rc.2
Error Output:
time=“2025-01-24T11:55:34-03:00” level=info msg=“Read config from /etc/linstor-appliance/linstor-appliance.toml”

Please let me know if you need more details. We are excited to test this environment but we are stuck.

Hi Thank you for your help. In this case the problem was the file /etc/cloudstack/management/db.properties , the ip of one of the nodes was pointing to a non existing ip.

Also if you update linux packages of the hosts servers using yum, the new kernel does not includes the drbd library.

So I have reinstalled the OS on all the nodes and started from the scratch, my cluster is working now!!

Enzo
