Dear List, I have a cluster of several PCs, each is running Fedora, either 14 or 15. I want to make this PCs grid enabled, so I installed globus ( http://www.globus.org/ ) and made a server with a global IP and with a subdomain. My main objective is to be able to run parallel programming (mpi), harnessing the idle CPUs of onlines nodes. The stage at a moment, I have successfully set up simple-CA and the GSI of the server. Globus commands works fine, for example: ++++ $ globus-hostname-lookup fedora.org Resolving address (fedora.org)... ------------------------------- Numeric address: 67.40.49.xxx Expected DN suffix: /CN=host/hoxx.trippy.org ++++ $ grid-proxy-init Your identity: /O=Grid/OU=GlobusTest/OU=simpleCA-localhost.localdomain/OU=localdomain/CN= Abu Attar Enter GRID pass phrase for this identity: Creating proxy ............................................ Done Your proxy is valid until: Wed Nov 2 05:01:04 2011 ++++++ I tried but failed to copy a file from one node to a server. $ globus-url-copy file:///home/username/Grid/Codes/cpi.c gsiftp://domainname/ The message is as follows, error: globus_xio: Unable to connect to domainname:2811 globus_xio: System error in connect: No route to host globus_xio: A system call failed: No route to host It seems something to do with the port 2811. Checking /etc/services of the server gave the port number and the protocol ++++ root$ less /etc/services | grep gsi gsigatekeeper 2119/udp # GSIGATEKEEPER gsiftp 2811/tcp # GSI FTP gsiftp 2811/udp # GSI FTP gsidcap 22128/tcp # GSI dCache Access Protocol ++++ As I do not have any experience, I have no idea how to fix it. I mainly rely on internet searching, but still can not find the answer. I expect from this list some suggestions or any comment. Thank you very much in advance. with best, AA -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
