Cannot ignore down host 127.0.0.1 - it is not being removed
Hello,
I am trying to install vertica on AWS, while installing vertica I am getting the following error message on both 127.0.0.1 and with my ip.
what could be the issue?
./install_vertica --hosts ip-10-x.x.x.ec2.internal --dba-user dbadmin --dba-user-password P@ssw0rd

Hi,
Your install_vertica command is missing a few parameters.
Please review and follow the AWS guide for installing Vertica on AWS : https://my.vertica.com/docs/Ecosystem/Amazon/UsingVerticaonAWSHTML/Default.htm
Thanks

Hi -
Can you please let me know how was this resolved. I am facing the same thing while installing on AWS?
Should I specify the--point-to-point option?
You have to use the ip itself and not the host name given.
Make sure you have edited your /etc/hosts file before installing the database, add you ip`s with thier specific node names.
And when you run install Vertica cluster use the ipaddreses.
Checkout this video tutorials HP Vertica Tuts or See this articles for more info HP Vertica Setup
All in all problem was with root trying to login into the server while vertica installation - Vertica automatically spawns psuedo terminal to ssh while installation
please mention what public key where to collect it, can you provide steps please for all how it resolved. yes it is looking for ssh and password but how do i make it run
