install_vertica script not working
Hi,
I am trying to run the install_vertica script in the /opt/vertica/sbin directory, and I get the error below. Note, I am logged in as root. Should I preconfigure something before running the script?
./install_verticaVertica Analytic Database 7.0.1-0 Installation Tool
>> Validating options...
Upgrading admintools meta data format..
scanning /opt/vertica/config/users
Error: No machines will be included in the cluster!
Hint: provide --hosts.
Installation FAILED with errors.
Installation stopped before any changes were made.

What is the exact install_vertica command you are running?
Thanks,
Rory
install_vertica -s <ip/s or host/s name of the machine that you want to install vertica> -r <the location of the rpm>

Osiris,
if you want to setup a single node cluster, use your local loopback address as host address otherwise for a cluster supply address of the other nodes. Do refer the install guide for detailed info.

This is after I have installed the HP Vertica package. Am I doing something wrong? Running version:7.0.1-0 on redhat linux
Have you installed the Vertica RPM? (Or .deb, on Debian/Ubuntu.)
If not, try doing that before looking for install_vertica. If so, make sure you're installing the correct package. Also make sure that you don't have some configuration-management program (such as puppet, etc) that is deleting the package's files because it doesn't recognize them.
