Create the IBM Storage Scale Cluster

The IBM Storage Scale node file defines all nodes in the cluster and some of the roles.

Create the IBM Storage Scale cluster with node11 as the primary and node21 as the secondary cluster configuration server. Set the -A flag to automatically start GPFS daemons when the OS is started.

# mmcrcluster -A -C gpfs-cluster -p node11 -s node21 -N nodefile -r $(which ssh) -R $(which scp)

Use the mmlscluster command to view the cluster.
