Create Cluster Verify: invalid password for root?

vbisbest

Hi, I have two questions.
1. Is it not possible to run a Vertica cluster/db on the same box and the MC? I am trying to setup the Community edition all on 1 box (Ubuntu). When I create a cluster, it will not let me specify localhost or 127.0.0.1. I can specify the external interface, but then I get issue #2
2. When validating my host, I get: Validating SSH connection. Authentication for user root failed......

I do not have a root user on this Ubuntu image, I use a different username for administrator. The create cluster wizard never prompted me for a root user name. What am I missing?

Thanks
Ray

Hi Ray,

We can have MC on the machine that has Vertica cluster.

The issue of "Validating SSH connection. Authentication for user root failed......" Might be because of the wrong PEM file.
