Vertica install failed. System prerequisites failed

inigo

Hello everybody,
I got the following error during the installation of vertica:

Error: Command failed on 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX':
VERT_DBA_USR=dradmin VERT_DBA_DATA_DIR=/opt/application/CA/data/data VERT_DBA_HOME=/home/dradmin VERT_DBA_GRP=dradmin /opt/vertica/oss/python/bin/python -m vertica.local_coerce
returncode = 1
_**System prerequisites failed. **_Threshold = FAIL
Hint: Fix above failures or use --failure-threshold
Installation FAILED with errors.

I have doubled check the pre requisites and I really think that the server meets all of them. I have check the file install.log but I don't understand it. Can you please tell me how I can check deeper what I am missing? I have installed vertica many times but never come across this issue where I am completely block.
Many thanks.

Regards,

Inigo.

Is your firewall up and running? What is your OS version? Is it failing on one node or all nodes?

Hello Inigo,
Try running pre-requisites validation again using following command, individually on all the nodes.
if you are running vertica over any Linux flavor, then do as:
1) Login to the vertica node as dbadmin user or vertica OS user.
2) Run the following command:
/opt/vertica/oss/python/bin/python -m vertica.local_verify

Shortcut, if you want to run it on all the nodes via loop:
for h in grep 'hosts =' /opt/vertica/config/admintools.conf | awk -F'=' '{print $2}' | tr ',' '\n'; do ssh $h "echo; hostname; echo; /opt/vertica/oss/python/bin/python -m vertica.local_verify ;echo; "; done;
