[xcat-user] xCAT2.1 + SLES + named

[torsten at bloth.n. (T. Bloth)]

Hello all,

actually I'm having some issues with my named on my xCAT2.1 and SLES10.2
powered cluster.

a) makedns returns with an error
--
root@cluster[0]:~# makedns
Error: Improper format SOA in /var/named/db.cluster.
--
Why?

I can solve it by deleting everything in /var/named/
--
root@cluster[0]:/var/named# rm -rf /var/named/*
root@cluster[0]:/var/named# makedns
Setup of DNS complete.
--
Maybe not what I want

b) makedns uses a wrong path
--
root@cluster[0]:~# /etc/init.d/named restart
Shutting down name server BIND  waiting for named to shut down (28s)  done
Starting name server BIND startproc:  exit status of parent of
/usr/sbin/named: 1
                                                                      failed
root@cluster[7]:~# cat /etc/
root@cluster[1]:~# head /etc/named.conf

options {
        directory "/var/named/";
        forwarders {
                172.31.1.1;
                10.28.193.5;
        };
};

zone "0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA" in {

In my eyes /var/named is NOT correct on SLES.
On SLES it should be /var/lib/named

My workaround is to copy all files from /va/named to /var/lib/named
But it should be any easy thing for the tool itself, not?

Or is there something missing in my setup?

Thanks a lot!

Torsten
