And finally uncheck Deny TCP connections in System > Admninistration > Login Screen. Try a reboot then on windows Start > All Programs > Xming > XLaunch and choose Fullscreen then Open Session via XDMCP then Search for Hosts and the rest to get a login screen on your CentOS box. You may need to Alt-Tab to allow Windows Firewall to let you through.
OpenQRM is up and running. Setup next, after enabling remote login so we can ooperate lights out.
Do what it says below the title Installation openQRM 4.9 on CentOS/RHEL: (three quarters down) logged in as root in root’s home directory.
We’re going to install OpenQRM to provision and manage a group of servers into a private cloud. Then we’ll try and do some stuff that may be interesting.
It wrote the boot record to the USB key, not the disk. Using command
grub-install /dev/sda
almost worked. I can boot without key, but it looks for hd1, and I had to edit the grub entries from hd1 to hd0. Sometimes Linux, you suck balls.
I’m using a Firebox X15 as a router to keep this on a separate network to my home network because OpenQRM needs to be a DHCP server. The Firebox is blocking packets on large downloads and I need to replace it. The external network is connected through a Comtrend PowerGrid 9020. They’re great.
Hello again. I’m starting anew. I’ve got an HP MicroServer and on that I’m going to install Centos and OpenQRM. I’ve got a bunch of 1U servers and HP blades that I’ll be playing with when it’s all running.
Oracle’s download servers were down for 48 hours. Very professional and reassuring.
When I eventually downloaded, I had no luck installing on Centos x64, getting cryptic “tns listener all appropriate instances are blocking new connections”.
Eventually, I found it’s because I’d set my hostname to bay5.lan2. instead of localhost.localdomain. Like I said, Oracle is plop.
